Fucking in a tree probably IS difficult, but you can’t do it in NY anymore… everybody will just tell you “it’s been done.” ---

I’ll put “The Black Vinyl Flame of the East” back on the shelf, I guess. That would be because most christians who believe God condemns homosexual sex and sex outside marriage) don’t post here. I think there must be only about 3. Tha would be because they are called gay bashers, knuckle draggers. This is so a christian unfriendly board. Whats this black vinyl thingie? ---

Oh, **vanilla** … This is not a Christian-unfriendly board. There are whole legions of devout Christians who post here without undue criticism. There are even quite a few well-loved and respected Christians who post here. I could name **Polycarp, tomndebb, scottischer, Mangetout, Siege, YOU** … Just because the majority opinion on this board is that a particular (non-universal-among-Christians) belief is chauvinistic, outmoded, and wrong does not make this a Christian-unfriendly board. ---

Someone help me - I have show tunes running thru my head. \*Look at me, I’m as helpless as a kitten Up a tree. And I feel like I’m clinging to my 32-year old transexual lover, I can’t understand. I get misty, And I need Vanilla Pepsi. Walk my way, And a thousand New York police start to play…\* Ouch! Who threw that? Regards, Shodan ---

> [@Slithy Tove](#): > > Is this newsworthy because they did it down by the chess & checkers in daytime? > I find it hard to believe that farther north, in the Ramble, nobody’s ever climbed up and fucked in a tree. In fact, I’m off the IMHO to start a thread “have you ever fucked in a tree?” I’ve seen a (really stoned) guy attempting to fuck a tree on Hollywood Boulevard a little over a year ago. The story in this thread just takes the cake though. ---

I’m sorry, **vanilla** , but condemning someone to Hell because of who they love **is** hateful. And both of them have done that, along with **Jersey’s** personal character assassin, **Joe\_Cool**. Let me just quote someone I’m sure you’ve heard of… “By their fruits you will know them”. When the fruit’s rotten, it says to me that the person dropping it on the rest of us needs to examine their relationship with their savior a little more deeply. ---

Some atheists aren’t liked here. Some Jewish posters aren’t liked here. Some European posters aren’t liked here. Some American posters aren’t liked here. Some Asian posters aren’t liked here. Some male posters aren’t liked here. Some female posters aren’t liked here. Some gay posters aren’t liked here. Some straight posters aren’t liked here. As long as the pattern is an individual one rather than a group one, I don’t see a “bias” involved.
