Whatever, suit yourself and be in denial.  The less educated and poorer you are, the more likely you are to smoke, vape, "hit a bong", "toke" etc.
:crap:

@miggy04:

Some say it's the Nordic countries. Anyone from there who wants to validate that? 

Scandinavia was the first place to legalize gay marriage.  Even though they are extremely tolerant, there is almost no gay scene, which was decreased by the government to prevent the spread of AIDS.

I say keep it up because it culls the herd.  Vape on my friends, waste your money. $$$

Spain will never be a leading economy, they have nothing to offer the world financially.  It is their mentality that prevents them from being a world power.

@Masonmason:

Mongolia hast to be wrong or the system grades in an odd way with so many still nomadic not to   mention the illiteracy rate.

Ehh, no

See Plato and the Forms.  Perfection exists in an absolute sense, i.e., the perfect circle r^2 = x^2 + y^2.  The perfect circle can never be drawn but it does indeed exist.

We call both the sky and blue jeans by the same color, blue. However, clearly a pair of jeans and the sky are not the same color; moreover, the wavelengths of light reflected by the sky at every location and all the millions of blue jeans in every state of fading constantly change, and yet we somehow have a consensus of the basic form Blueness as it applies to them. Says Plato.

But if the very nature of knowledge changes, at the time when the change occurs there will be no knowledge, and, according to this view, there will be no one to know and nothing to be known: but if that which knows and that which is known exist ever, and the beautiful and the good and every other thing also exist, then I do not think that they can resemble a process of flux, as we were just now supposing.

No one has ever seen a perfect circle, nor a perfectly straight line, yet everyone knows what a circle and a straight line are. Plato utilizes the tool-maker's blueprint as evidence that Forms are real.

I think everyone can agree with that.

Proverbs 18:22
He who finds a wife finds what is good and receives favor from the LORD.
¡Bendita sea tu fuente!
    ¡Goza con la esposa de tu juventud!
19 Es una gacela amorosa,
    es una cervatilla encantadora.

Proverbs 20:6-7
Many a man claims to have unfailing love, but a faithful man who can find?  The righteous man leads a blameless life; blessed are his children after him.
Son muchos los que proclaman su lealtad,
    ¿pero quién puede hallar a alguien digno de confianza?

7 Justo es quien lleva una vida sin tacha;
    ¡dichosos los hijos que sigan su ejemplo

Deuteronomy 24:5
If a man has recently married, he must not be sent to war or have any other duty laid on him. For one year he is to be free to stay at home and bring happiness to the wife he has married.
No envíes a la guerra a ningún hombre recién casado, ni le impongas ningún otro deber. Tendrá libre todo un año para atender su casa y hacer feliz a la mujer que tomó por esposa.

Matthew 19:4-6
"Haven't you read," he replied, "that at the beginning the Creator 'made them male and female,'  and said, 'For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh' ?  So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate."

Colossians 3:18-19
Wives, submit to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.  Husbands, love your wives and do not be harsh with them.
Normas para la familia cristiana
18 Esposas, sométanse a sus esposos, como conviene en el Señor.
19 Esposos, amen a sus esposas y no sean duros con ellas.

Hebrews 13:4-7
Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral.  Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, "Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you."  So we say with confidence, "The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?"  Remember your leaders, who spoke the word of God to you. Consider the outcome of their way of life and imitate their faith.
4 Tengan todos en alta estima el matrimonio y la fidelidad conyugal, porque Dios juzgará a los adúlteros y a todos los que cometen inmoralidades sexuales. 5 Manténganse libres del amor al dinero, y conténtense con lo que tienen, porque Dios ha dicho:
«Nunca te dejaré;
    jamás te abandonaré.
6 Así que podemos decir con toda confianza:
El Señor es quien me ayuda; no temeré.
    ¿Qué me puede hacer un simple mortal?
7 Acuérdense de sus dirigentes, que les comunicaron la palabra de Dios. Consideren cuál fue el resultado de su estilo de vida, e imiten su fe. 8 *Jesucristo es el mismo ayer y hoy y por los siglos.

Mark 10:6-9
"But at the beginning of creation God 'made them male and female.'  'For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife,  and the two will become one flesh.' So they are no longer two, but one.  Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate."
6 Pero al principio de la creación Dios “los hizo hombre y mujer”. **7 “Por eso dejará el hombre a su padre y a su madre, y se unirá a su esposa,[c] 8 y los dos llegarán a ser un solo cuerpo.”[d] Así que ya no son dos, sino uno solo. 9 Por tanto, lo que Dios ha unido, que no lo separe el hombre.

Ephesians 5:22-33
Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord.  For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior.  Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything.  Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her  to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word,  and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless.  In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.  After all, no one ever hated his own body, but he feeds and cares for it, just as Christ does the church–  for we are members of his body.  "For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh."  This is a profound mystery--but I am talking about Christ and the church.  However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.
22 Esposas, sométanse a sus propios esposos como al Señor. 23 Porque el esposo es cabeza de su esposa, así como Cristo es cabeza y salvador de la iglesia, la cual es su cuerpo.**

@regnomraw:

Woohoo, Australia in the top 10. Not too bad! (We can do better though, gotta pull up our socks!)

I think there should be no surprise there about the top ten.

@controlxxx:

In first case no, but it depends on how I like him and if he was married I really don't know what to do but because of respect I would say no.

Sleeping with a married straight man and sleeping with a married gay man are the same as far as cheating is concerned.  To say that one is less of an offense is to devalue their marriage.

I don't have to agree with the articles to find them interesting and worth posting.  :angel2:

I didn't start the randomness.  I just figured you really liked computers.  :pope:

How is the notion of perfection "plural"?  :angel2: :pope:

Durians wont kill you and cigarettes will.  However, be my guest if you wish to do that.  It will make more room for the rest of us.

Well I'm glad you know exactly how everyone should behave.  :angel2: :angel2:.  I'll take that any day over a queen.  Telling others they are pathetic, is pathetic and rude.

@foreco:

Still have no clue how to identify those curious married men:S

I wish I could too.  They are much elusive than the standard queen.  I think that's why I like them.

You are definitely allowed your opinion.  I still disagree  :angel2: :angel2: :angel2:

They are much more "athletic" than your average gay man.  My view is that the majority of people here like bears and/or are chubby chasers, i.e. the very antithesis of athletic.  Have you actually been there?

@jay1:

nope
not only the smell, and that's a good reason
but the money, smoking is wasting a lot of money

Exactly, the reason why the graph tapers a little at the beginning is because those who make under $6,000 can't afford buy expensive cigarettes.  In addition to that, since they are expensive, it decreases your already meager income.

Your post is trying to cover too many things at once.  Could you please expound upon the ideas a little more?
