    I'll take that seriously, Conor. We can talk about that in PMs, and I'll find out out what the deal is at my brother's chambers (which are in Gray's Inn, London, if you care to Google).

    not that i can recall. certainly not in the same sentence. also, there is a difference between contradiction and hypocrisy. for instance, contradiction might be a pro-lifer supporting the death penalty. hypocrisy is saying "you shouldn't judge people, you evil sadist."

    I'd just like to take a moment to let you all know i posted this same exact story on the 28th. It didn't get no where near this amount of attention as jlew's thread.
    I'm seriously miffed!

    hehe. Just kidding :)

    It looks like you are the one and only human being to be perfect. And you walked willingly into that one....Yep, you'll make a good lawyer... "not that I can recall"......

    But at least you are "above" me, by being "honest" and not a "hypocrite".....

    The irony of being a hypocrite about being a hypocrite. It's enough to let your hypocritical self-righteousness speak for itself.

    not being a hypocrite doesn't make me perfect. just means i don't play passive-aggressive head games and preach acceptance while practicing judgmentalism in the same breath.

    For you--or any human being for that matter--to pretend you can't recall an instance of acting hypocritical is ludicrous....especially when trying so desperately to pin the scarlet "h" on another for being hypocritical.

    "I don't play headgames".......... yeah.....uh-huh.....You fell prey to the classic "I'm self-righteous" approach, when minimizing someone else for their so-called self-righteousness.

    Hmm,

    It seems to me angelica, that what you were really trying to say at the start of this thread is that we shouldn't mock Tom Cruise's idiotic beliefs any more than we should mock any other religious person's idiotic beliefs.

    I agree. They're all equally idiotic.
    It doesn't matter if you're male, female, or confused; black, white, brown, red, green, yellow; gay, lesbian; redneck cop, stoned; ugly; military style, doggy style; fat, rich or poor; vegetarian or cannibal; bum, hippie, virgin; famous or drunk-you're either an asshole or you're not!

    Oh dear dad
    Can you see me now
    I am myself
    Like you somehow
    I'll ride the wave
    Where it takes me
    I'll hold the pain
    Release me

    so believing in jesus christ or allah is equally as idiotic as believing aliens will invade america?

    So....

    what's the moral of the story?
    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    I almost had a baby with a woman who fancied Tom Cruise. I ran. Do what I did. That's the moral. ;)
