Hil, wow. What a relief!
I don't like vampires. I'm gonna take a stand and say they're not good.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Hoo-fucking-ray, and it's about fucking time.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
"Magical beliefs"? What's magic about them?
Prayer specifically, the story of Christ, the idea of the holy ghost. Religion is myth and superstition. That that fills a need for some people, the majority of people even, isn't a net good or bad, but I do feel that I am expected to be ok with myth and superstition governing my life.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
Hil, that's great (if appalling that it's taken so long).

What a relief, Hil! Now we need other professor/office worker to get the other one in.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated
"Magical beliefs"? What's magic about them?
Prayer specifically, the story of Christ, the idea of the holy ghost. Religion is myth and superstition. That that fills a need for some people, the majority of people even, isn't a net good or bad, but I do feel that I am expected to be ok with myth and superstition governing my life.
I think that it's absolutely not right for anyone to expect other people to adhere to their belief system. 100%.
But it's also not right to denigrate another belief system by referring to it as "magical beliefs." If you would like respect from people of belief systems not your own, then I think a good way to approach that is to respect them as well.
You may consider prayer, the idea of Christ as God, and the Holy Spirit to be "magical," but the people who believe in them do not consider them to be "magic," and to suggest that is just as disrespectful as Christians expecting atheists to get on board with the godhood of Christ.
