Besides the day off for some peeps.

Isn't every friday a good day? Except maybe if you trip over a curb and knock a few teeth out.

I got paid, I am off today, did 65 km in 2.5 hours on my bike, I am dead tired and getting drunk watching nip/tuck after swallowing 2 huge burgers.

You can bet your *ss it's Good.
You live more in 5 minutes on a bike like this, going flat-out, than some people in their lifetime

Good Friday is a holy day celebrated by most Christians on the Friday before Easter or Pascha. It commemorates the crucifixion of Jesus at Calvary. Special prayer services are often held on this day with readings from the Gospel accounts of the events leading up to the crucifixion. Mainstream Christian churches view Christ's crucifixion as a voluntary and vicarious act, and one by which, along with resurrection on the third day, death itself was conquered.

Actually, I only posted once on Easter Sunday. And it was at 1am. I was still awake from Saturday night. Maybe you are having hallucination flashbacks?

It's sad that you think it was revenge.

I AM a born again Christian. But unlike you I have not taken any illegal hallucinogens. You are the addict it seems. Addicted to ME! flaming me and stalking me. Give it up my little ignorant neighbor to the North.

It is good because Jesus died for our sins and therefore we can sin and still be forgiven and get into heaven. This is really good for some of the posters here on this thread because someday, when you get older and death is closer, you will be scrambling to ask forgiveness for the things that you have done, said, and posted in life. And, if you trully are remorseful for your sins; God will forgive you, and you will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven. Life is a very short test, don't fail it because you won't to get a laugh on a post.

LSD isn't addictive and is compatible with religion.

See this video of a christian priest talking about LSD
http://yoism2.home.comcast.net/DoorsOfPerception.wmv

http://www.yoism.org/?q=node/151


Albert Hofmann, inventor of LSD is a century old and quite eloquent. He told the symposium gathered in his honor that acid gave him an inner joy and opened his mind, sensitizing him to the miracles of creation.
Dr. Andrew Sewell, a psychiatrist and neurologist from the Harvard Medical School who studies alcohol and drug abuse, says most problems with LSD occur when users take an unknown dose they don't feel comfortable with, in an uncontrolled setting, without supervision to shield them from dangerous situations.

"LSD flashbacks are well-confirmed phenomenon but they are relatively rare and don't seem to cause as much trouble as the media would have you believe," said Dr. Sewell at the LSD symposium.

In Norway we call it "Long Friday". I think it is because if one is nailed to a plank of wood, time doesn't exactly fly.
Making sense is overrated.

LSD is still the same after all these years
Also, the creator of LSD is 100 year old in 2006.



I hope you will one day understand that not all drugs are made equal and that we can benefit from some of them.

Who cares? Are you trying to make the claim that inventing LSD somehow preserved him? Again, what's your point? Why are you derailing this thread?

That was about 24 years ago for me. When did you realize that, last month?

Why is it called 'good friday' in English? There is nothing good about it IMO. It is the day Christ was murdered.

Must be the LSD causing that. Flashback?

And are you avoiding my questions like you always do? Are you going to throw and name or an insult my way like you usually do?

You are very predictable.

OT: It should be called Crucifixion Friday.

This year I celebrated Good Friday by nailing my son to a cross made of 2x4's and letting him die. I feel SOOO much holier now!

Being in debt and celebrating a lower deficit is like being on a diet and celebrating the fact you gained two pounds this week instead of five.

More derailing posting from ambush.

Please mods, lock this thread. It was posted by a banned troller in the wrong forum and is now being shoved off track by my stalker. I regret I even posted in this thread beyond my initial post of pointing out the ban evader.

This is coming from someone that is not only banned, but keeps registering accounts to harass RR.

I always wonder why you call it Good Friday in English, I guess it has to do with Christ being good. In French we call it vendredi saint.

Actually, it's mostly just you and ambush that are the predictable ones.

They majority of the people on here are quite intelligent and have thought provoking posts.

But then... a few bad apples...

Better ?

You missed that it was spam, so you probably didn't click the link. How's it any good if everyone misses it ?

Well, thanks goodness for Good Friday! Everyone went out and spent their Easter weekend watching Scary Movie 4, which raked in 41 million bucks. That says a lot about us.
