Originally posted by RBHILLTo tell you the truth, I don't have $ on me anymore but credit cards when I work now. Once a sister/black person was asking out loud for 5 one's and I had them on me. I gave them to her and to my surprise she gave me a 5 back. This is at the site I work at. In 2005 I gave a homeless dude 10 in Sacramento, he was surprised and said "that's really b----in dude".
Well when I work 4 hrs. A day at $36.
-4 for gas = 20 miles there and back. Mustang 15 miles to the gallon.
-6 to give away
- .22% of tax and tithe
-2 for soda and snack.
I would only make $16 a day.
1040 hrs. X $4 is $347 a month, my rent is $500. And plus my tithe money goes to my church so technically I am helping the poor with food once a month when the church gives away bags of food.

Thanks. Gonna have to get used to pronouncing it like that in my head.
Now, this "coolaide" thing... what's that all about? I see it popping up in the debates forum from time to time. What's the reference?

Obama's a cult leader?
Some people would follow him off a cliff. In fact, fiscally that is exactly where we are headed.
Political ideology is very similar to religion. People who adhere to either cling to a particular idea of what is salvation and what is evil and they claim to have the cure. For the statist, we look to intellectuals to provide us with solutions for our collective salvation, which usually involves redistribution of wealth. The evil is individualism and freedom.
This can be best illustrated when collectivists die. Men like Lenin and Mao and Chavez are embalmed for all to see under glass, as if they are immortal gods that never leave us.

When are you going to reject your evil Maoist Social Security benefits ?
Originally posted by RBHILLGiving money to a church is not what Christ commanded. Giving money relieves YOU of the responsibility of obeying Christ. Giving money is a last resort and not the first and only option. Showing love comes first ie helping feeding caring spending time etc.
I am saying that it is not required, you give a tenth or more or even less from your own freewill.
Originally posted by whodeyYeah, I knew that. But i still pronounce it (to myself) Whoa-dee. Sorry.
It is pronounced "Who" "Dey".
Got it?
It is from American football, which is why you don't understand.
The team is called the Cincinnati Bengals. The term is used to mean this, "Who are they or (Whodey) think can beat them Bengals? The Bengals are an NFL franchize that used to be well run, making two close wins in a Super Bowl which is when the te ...[text shortened]... ink the coolaide are rather amusing to me.
