So . . .


Your in your 70's . . . ?

A few honest questions... To either think about, or to simply evade by throwing more spume and insult.

Is it time to grow up a bit.... and stop calling names and shouting insults and then running and hiding in the mommy's-skirt of your absolute self righteousness....??

Have you always been so perfect ~ or does a late in life conversion give you the right to judge, blame, fault, and accuse everyone else who either may not agree with your "beliefs" or who is on the same path that you were some 30 or 40 years ago??

Do you know . . . . is there acutally more to your reputation & history than you quite self righteously profess here while you point the finger at others...??

Our Nomads motto is "Peace, Love, and Fish Tacos" . . and YOUR bible says "God is Love" but . . I don't feel much love from you, amigo.

This thread is about fear....

One thing that I would offer ~ which we ALL can be aware of in this evolving world (fear, knowledge, preparation... whatever you choose) is the possibility that individuals or groups who perscribe to absolutist thinking and beiliefs acquire the weaponry that enables them to commit massive destruction against those who do not subscribe to their absolute "truths"... 911 was a sample of this scenario..

Extremist, fundamentalist-absolutist, self-righteousness is something that I "fear" far more than anything that could happen to me in Mexico ~ from ANY sector !

"Plays well with others" ? ? ? Someting to ponder!

BTW, I forgot to ask you:

Self-Worth
Honesty
Respect
Honor
Character
Faith
Hope
Chairty



Self-Worth...? Do you mean your OWN self worth, or do you really belive that your insults add to anyone else's self-worth?

Honesty...? Can you be honest about your own history and mistakes?

Respect...? Is that what you show your fellow humans here, who may honestly disagree with you?

Honor....? Who do you honor by your self-righteousness and insults and name calling?

Character....? Well, ok, amigo, you ARE a character, and even though I'm bustin yer burro, I still like that about you ;)... you DO add COLOR here !

And... you asked (though I think it was intended as an insult, but to be fair....) Summa Cum Laude, M. Ed. U of Idaho . . . and idling at ABD. I worked hard to pay for my education and have worked my whole life to improve the lives of others...

BTW, Thanks, Dennis....

I know, and I don't take it personally, but I would like to at least help the "Preacher" be responsible for his words... like any self proclaimed christian conservative should be...

You know what's happened when so many self-righteous preachers have not been responsible for their words and actions... Many have been bilked, robbed, manipulated, lied to, used, and abused by them...

simple living


Baja Gringo, I really like your post.

Helping others is how I want to spend my later years. I wanna do it in Mexico, God willing.

My fave place on the whole planet is Oaxaca, and my dream for years was to move to and help the poor ppl of Oaxaca, but I have a feeling God may send me to TJ first- for a while, at least. It's not one of my fave places, but I feel I may be needed more there. I'd prefer TJ than Him sending me to Somalia, Iraq, Iran, Sudan, etc.!

I strongly believe there was a lesson God wanted to make to us when he sent His Son to be born to a poor family, live a simple life of a carpenter and who dedicated His life to helping others first and above all else. I guess he would be labled a "LOSER" by some of you that have posted here.

I sense that has a lot to do with what divides us on this issue and it saddens me greatly...

Does it hurt your heart, tickle your Brain, to think that someone else "
Thinks" different than You?

Nah , Skeet, it's just yur style .


Nine principles and twelve values

The nine principles + the 12 values

* Honesty
* Reverence
* Hope
* Thrift
* Humility
* Charity
* Sincerity
* Moderation
* Hard Work
* Courage
* Personal Responsibility
* Gratitude

1. America is good.

2. I believe in God and He is the Center of my Life.

3. I must always try to be a more honest person than I was yesterday.

4. The family is sacred. My spouse and I are the ultimate authority, not the government.

5. If you break the law you pay the penalty. Justice is blind and no one is above it.

6. I have a right to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness, but there is no guarantee of equal results.

7. I work hard for what I have and I will share it with who I want to. Government cannot force me to be charitable.

8. It is not un-American for me to disagree with authority or to share my personal opinion.

9. The government works for me. I do not answer to them, they answer to me.

You Are Not Alone




* libs, all about choice until you choose different
* B. Hussein Obama - an Empty Suit for Empty Minds.
* Annoy a liberal - Work hard and be happy!
* Arguing facts & truth to libs is like bringing a warm smile to a gun fight.
* Lets win the War on Terror

this thread will continue for eternity...as long as people participate, and imo, it lowers the vibration of this forum, full of attack, insults, defensiveness. staying on this thread is like watching jerry springer...when i catch myself listing to him on tv, i ask myself, "what am i thinking, why am i here"...so i turn it off.

there are other threads that are very sweet, for example, "Hot Young Chicks" and "Thoughts on Baja." check them out! no name calling, just sweet talk and beautiful scenery.

my last words, back to pretty pictures and positive words. nuff said
