Quote From: jim1970Anyone who knows me on this boards knows that I haven't had any use for God since He kicked my ass at the age of 12 and turned me into a suicdal basketcase while I sat in His Church. I floundered and struggeled, eventually finding heavy metal.
You who struggle might want to watch this video from the New York metal band Manowar.

"Let's all stand together for the world to see.
Now the time is right to live out all of our dreams.
Say the word "FOREVER"! Your strength will never leave.
If you want to win the fight, scream: "I BELIEVE!"
I'm experiencing difficulty sharing that Manowar video.
Just go to myspace.com/lametalhead. I think that should work. If not, try MySpace.com Blogs-Manowar-I Believe-Jim-MySpace Blog-Windows Internet.
The three crosses are ironic, because Manowar is NOT a Christian band-not by ANY means.
"For the weak of heart, I will be strong!
To the Defenders of Faith, I will belong!
Till the last of us fight till we die....
Till the Keys of the Kingdom are MINE!"
Isn't that what Life is all about?
God gave you a middle finger and He expects you to use it-on naysayers.
Ponder that as you have a Happy New Year.
