“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” - Theodore Roosevelt

Nice to see some Presidential quotes. :)
 
"And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts
And I looked, and behold a pale horse
And his name that sat on him was death, and hell followed with him"
-J Cash.
Now I am become death, the destroyer of worlds.” I suppose we all felt that, one way or another." — J. Robert Oppenheimer.
 
My friend would say "theres no such thing as an ugly blowjob" that was in reference to some of the less attractive ladies he would date.
 
Me to most people - “Judge not, lest ye be judged.”

The misuse of this Bible verse...aggravates me for several reasons.

1.) If you read directly after this verse, it says that the same measure with what you judge someone else with shall be applied to you.

Basically, don't be a hypocrite. If I tell you that you shouldn't be doing something, I better be certain that I am not doing it myself. People throw that verse around like it makes them untouchable.

2.) People like to pick and choose Bible verses and apply them to their lives or tell them to other people when it suits them. You can't hide behind a the Bible and it's words if you don't believe it to be true, and don't believe in God.

Speaking of Bible mishaps.

Another one that irks me is "I am my brother's keeper"

Cain and Abel were brothers, one a farmer and one a shepherd(keeper.) Cain killed Abel and then when Cain spoke to God, God asked Cain where Abel was. To which he responded sarcastically, "Am I my Brother's Keeper?" More of a "I am not his Shepherd.." and not the "I am my brother's keeper(protector.)"

Pretty ironic how people use that one.

Bible stuff isn't my forte... Did you guys know that the first mention of a sandwich was first described in the Talmud? <- May not be accurate.
 
Not sure how to quote here yet but I agree with you WeMadeIt... I know Matthew 7. We studied it in my Sunday small group a while ago. I wasn’t going to quote the whole Bible here for Meso.

I know I’m a sinner, we all are. I do my best to live right, and not judge others. And I ask for the same in return, that’s all.

Just so you know, that wasn't a dig at you brother.

I just hear people throwing that around every day as a means to justify the things they do and the way they live their lives and it irks me.

Nothing against you!

Hey you didn’t need to be a lil bitch and let me know you weren’t taking a shot, I can handle it. Besides, I don’t judge. Hah.

In all seriousness I appreciate the talk. While I have studied it and know the meaning behind it, you never know who needs to hear it, or be reminded.
