Speshul Announcement

[xifeng]

For the sake of keeping my plentiful current and future religious/spiritual wangst off the general flist, I am instituting a new filter. Those interested in reading should comment. No opprobrium will attach to those not interested, so don't feel that I won't love you anymore if you don't comment. ♥

Kthx. l33 out.

Sorry for the recomment, Quatre wanted a part of the groovin'.

[shake-the-stars.livejournal.com]

Thanks. That song will now play in my head INDEFINITELY. XD

[shake-the-stars.livejournal.com]

Dammit, Fred, I already replied to the other one. XD

[imperfectkatoru.livejournal.com]

Ack! I deleted the comment and then you replied to it. XD Oh so shameful of me. T_T So that means all we need is a recomment by you to reply to that and then delete all the other ones like it never happened! We need BALANCE!

WE NEED BALANCE! *clap clap clapclapclap!!!* WE NEED BALANCE! *clap clap clapclapclap!!!*

[imperfectkatoru.livejournal.com]

Come on, you know you wanna be groovin' like me. :3 And taken back to all of those oldies stations...

[dethorats]

I will be happy to read spiritual wrestling dilemmas. I find it constructive.

[momo.livejournal.com]

Count me in, yo. :D

[tara]

Wrestling is fine. Bashing will probably result in me not reading, but that doesn't mean I don't want to be on the filter :)

As you know, I am an atheist who doesn't really care what anyone else's belief is (unless it involves being mean to Cats ;_;). As a sign of respect of other people's choices I don't debate with people about religion, and because of my own beliefs I don't really have anything worthwhile to say about it anyway.

So, in conclusion, you can talk and wangst all you like and I will read, but I most likely won't comment and the only part that really matters to me is that it troubles you. You could be worshipping the Great Goddess Anoia, the Goddess of Things That Get Stuck In Drawers for all it matters, it's still your own choice. Although I can easily see the use of worshipping Anoia. She could really irritate your enemies! Imagine how angry they will be when they get to work because a fork got stuck in the drawer again and they had to spend fifteen minutes trying to wiggle it out until someone suggested they just take out the whole drawer, and then everything came tumbling down and they had to spend an additional fifteen minutes cleaning up and by then they were late for work and the boss had already said that if they were late ONE MORE TIME they were OUT, and that means YOU.

Oh dear. I probably didn't help at all. I just added more religious speculations to your troubles.

[queen-lily-rose.livejournal.com]

I'd Like To Read :o)

[anjala.livejournal.com]

Count me in, too. I know you have read and helped me with my religious wangst when I have needed it.

Oh...you rawk!

I'm in

[beldar.livejournal.com]

What's wangst without someone to share it with?

[treyvadi.livejournal.com]

hai desu~!

i figure, if i am interested, i will read else i will skip. but the desire to be the one to choose remains :D

[ebony-queen.livejournal.com]

comment, comment, comment, comment! does that count? :)

[duokinneas.livejournal.com]

OMG ME PICK ME!

**clears throat** I like anything to do with your life that can later be used for blackmail, not that I would ever do that. Even if you think it's useless wangst, I want to read it. So there!

[shake-the-stars.livejournal.com]

Sometimes things don't GET balanced, Fred. XD

[shake-the-stars.livejournal.com]

Well, that makes one of us. XD

[shake-the-stars.livejournal.com]

Only if you promise not to remove my spleen. I don't care if you worship the mighty Spleneticus, I'm sure he'll be just as happy with chicken spleens. :D

[shake-the-stars.livejournal.com]

I think I'm more or less past the stage where I feel compelled to bash other people. (Alas, I am not!thirteen.) Besides, I know you're not the kind of person who takes disagreement as bashing. ♥

[shake-the-stars.livejournal.com]

You know, Cat, I hadn't even thought about the mighty Anoia, but after the highly cogent example you gave me of the ways in which she might help get someone fired, I think she is truly to be feared. Her altar should look like a drawer with things jammed into it from all angles.

I don't expect you to debate or discuss; it's. I am, however, aware that a lot of people aren't really interested, so I figure it's only fair to allow them to opt out if they want.

I could never be mean to a Cat. (Well, not intentionally. I am told that sometimes I am mean to people without meaning to be.) =^_^=

[shake-the-stars.livejournal.com]

That is a good sign, because you were one of the people who was going to wind up there regardless of whether or not you wanted it *g*

♥

[shake-the-stars.livejournal.com]

*counts you in, as per your request*

You rawk too. ^_^

Re: I'm in

[shake-the-stars.livejournal.com]

If someone wangsts in a silent forest, does anybody listen? ^_-

[shake-the-stars.livejournal.com]

Fair enough. Besides, I figure it's only fair to empower everyone to choose for themselves :D

[shake-the-stars.livejournal.com]

Only if you have 4 LJs called ebony_queen, since I can only add you to the filter once. ;)

[shake-the-stars.livejournal.com]

Yes, dear. ♥

I don't know whether it is endearing or disturbing that you seem so intent on fangirling me. ^^6

[tara]

Disagreement is faaar from bashing. Bashing is stuff like "all religion should be banned because it only ever brings out the worst in people". I encounter that one a lot of late, and it makes my eyebrows do things.

[shake-the-stars.livejournal.com]

Religion isn't the only thing that brings out the worst in people. Politics will do it, too. :D

Frankly, though, I think that statement is permissible only if the writer is a particularly idiotic thirteen.

[forgottensanity.livejournal.com]

Anoia is indeed a remarkable goddess. And now you probably think that I made it all up, but that is not so. In fact she exists. Albeit on the Discworld, which features many, many gods and goddesses, i.e.:

Aniger, goddess of squashed animals. Appears after someone thinks "Oh god, what was that I hit?"

Flatulus, god of the winds.

and, of course, Vometia, the goddess of being sick.


Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discworld_gods) is our friend.

The answer, grasshopper, is blowing in the wind. Now go wax my car. All right, buy me a car first and then wax it. Or wax your own, I don't care.

[queen-lily-rose.livejournal.com]

Huzzah!

[tara]

I think it's one of those things where it doesn't work to argue, simply because they just have such an immovable mindset. If they can be oblivious to people like Mother Theresa, then me pointing stuff out isn't going to help!

Re: I'm in

[shake-the-stars.livejournal.com]

If a tree falls in the forest, and it hits a mime--Oh, never mind.

[shake-the-stars.livejournal.com]

I am a huge faggot for Wikipedia. Srsly, I am like omgsogay for it.

It's quite embarrassing.

[duokinneas.livejournal.com]

♥ Thank you.

I'll vote for disturbing, especially since I'm such a lax fangirl that I didn't get to this comment until now. Woot. But seriously, I am legitimately interested in what you have to say; although I may disagree with it, religion is something with which I can't really fight, and it's something that interests me no matter how far-fetched it may get. Wangst on (even though you already have, technically, with your next post)!
