According to that logic (a word I use reluctantly whenever entering the field of theology), being without sin would be the most antichristian thing ever.

I don't care about sin or not. I have my own sense of my guilt. How other view, speak, see me doesn't matter. It can hurt, but it's more problem of these who claim false accusations or try/pretend to be more saint then they are, put on me more guilt and don't see or don't care ow own logs. I have low self-esteem so even my splinters seem to my as logs. I just wait for time, where all of them will be burn along with me, and i just stop exist in all kind of realities.

Absolutely. Apples are a delicious and healthy part of a balanced nutritional diet.

Because it is not an apple but an unnamed fruit. That is scary ;)

Possible. But considering they covered themselves with figleaves, a fig is more likely.

But we will never know. I however choose it to be a tomato.

On pizza! Pineapple on pizza growing on trees. Of wisdom.

Not to go off topic, but........

Isn't this a sign that pineapple should go on pizza, if it grows on a tree of life, wisdom?

Good point, he should be fined. One of the below should have been posted.

My father did not believe me when he told me, "I fed that stray cat, she looked hungry," and I told him, "We now have a cat."

Ten years we had her because she ended up inside after coming to the door every night and begging for food, until the day my father decided it was too cold outside and she became (for the most part) a housecat.

I like your dad.

He was an amazing person, and I miss him.

You're still typoing. The word you're looking for is delicious (even if their enzymes are partly digesting us as we eat them).
