      I mean I don’t see how people who are otherwise healthy and whole need to inebriate themselves to “feel good.”

      addiction

      If they only knew how much worse things could be!

      addiction sucks pretty bad

      Yet I don’t have any desire to enable an addiction syndrome in myself, I can find happiness in just having another day to spend being alive.

      oh good for you

        Thanks, it IS good for me. I have more money than most wealthy people in my area, so it is a nice feeling to be able to get up and do whatever I feel like every day. Your reactions are not really anything I care very much about.

      Looks like you failed your empathy check

        Hedonism is vastly underrated and gets poor press. I say the three most important words in life are, “I’ve got mine.”

      Think of it as an illness, not a perfectly rational decision. You don’t think “why did that person choose to get a cold”. Or the way people “choose” to be gay.

        I chose to be gay, and it’s been the best decision I could have made. Although my early experiences were hetero only, but now I know better what I’m all about - yes a choice was made, and I keep telling people that choice is a BIG part of deciding what your orientation will be.

        Anyway it’s been a huge blessing for me, a reason I get up feeling happy and looking forward to another wonderful day.

        Here then is the true nature of “Christian” fellowship. Your words say all that needs to be said about how depraved humankind has become. You are a sterling example of maggot-infested dog excrement, which is about what I’d expect from one of your ilk. Happy holidays!
