Casualties of War

1/3 of us have been drunk in the last month.
1 in 4 of us use illegal drugs.
8,000 of us contract an STD every day.
1 million of us are pregnant.
340,000 of us get abortions every year.
1 in 10 of us have been raped/molested.
I will see 14,000 sexual references on TV this year.
9 out of 10 of us have seen porn online.
½ of us are no longer virgins.
40% of us have inflicted self injury.
1 in 5 of us have contemplated suicide.
Over 1,500 of us kill ourselves each year.
53% of us believe Jesus sinned.
83% of us believe truth is relevant.
65% of us say there is no way to tell which religion is true.
ALL of us need to be reached.



“If we could effectively kill the national pride and patriotism of one generation, we will have won that country. By making readily available drugs of various kinds, by giving the teenager alcohol, by praising his wildness, by stimulating him with sex literature, and by advertising to him or her (psycho political preparation), we can create the necessary attitude of chaos, idleness, and worthlessness…” –Soviet Communist Party Official

When society no longer subscribes to a moral code, it's downfall is near.

I know. the 8,000 number is WAY disheartening for me. Purity is no longer sacred... *shakes head*

'nuff said.

Yeah, you ought to read the whole thing, Z, dear.

I hold that you edited that in while I was gone...

no, I didn't.

Now that I'm on a high-speed and was able to watch it:

That wasn't a source, that was a movie of people holding signs.

Zenblend, if you have problems believing the possibility that it could be true, open your eyes. This world is corrupt and there's no way around it. Maybe you think of yourself as a close to perfect person and maybe you are, but I doubt it, and if you are I applause you...Most of us aren't. I, for one, am far from pefect, even though I try to be. Drugs, sex, sins in general...they happen all over, all the time, it's fact. Not a fact I (or anyone else) am proud of, but that doesn't matter. It shouldn't be like this. But it is. Some of these are hard to believe, but I know they are very possible and there's little doubt in my mind they are all true.

1. Uncle was an alcoholic. Saw what it did to him. Not that stupid.
2. Dad was a drug addict. See no. 1.
3. Virgin and proud of it.
4. See 3
5. Even if 3 wasn’t true, no.
6. No, but I’ve known someone who has been...I’m still looking for the guy with my castration knife.
7. I probably would if I watched TV. much.
8. Curse you google and your horribly ineffective safe search! And sad to admit I’ve looked for it before.
9. See 3
10. Does unintentional count?
11. For a short time.
12. Nope.
13. Nope. The sad thing: The French knew the De Vinci code was a joke. All of Europe knew it was a joke. It comes to the U.S. and gets a cult following...
14. Perception is relevant. Truth doesn't change.
15. Through human logic, probably not. Through God's revelation, I’d say so.
16. Yep.

Edit: I hate it when I spell knew new...

I'm starting to like this guy.

As do I, except I'm still waiting for my homage.

Lol. I never paid you any homage.

Hm. No but you are going to be the best man which is enough homage for me. I dont see you agreeing to be DMAC'S best man.

LOL true. But that's still not homage.

Are you TRYING to get banned and all your posts erased?

(perfect example of holly rejoicing in her adminship)

I really don't want to hack your admin account...
