"do you want a beer?"
"no thanks. i don't drink."
"why not?"
"i don't like the smell of alcohol."
"really? you don't drink cause of the smell? that's it????"
...(pause)...
"well no, that's not totally 'it'."
"then why?"
"it's also because i believe that reason is the greatest gift that God has given humanity. the effect of drinking is to dull your reason - to make it not work properly. so i think if i drink it's as if i'm saying to God, 'dear God, thanks for this awesome gift and all but that's ok, i don't want it, you can take it back.' "
"hmm...i used to not like the smell either, but it grows on you after a while..."

hi crank57: thank you for your comment. i think both your heart and your head should want the exact same thing. if they do not, then you have a conflicted nature. in the case of your head and heart wanting seperate things, i don't think you should do either thing - instead go do something where both agree. that's the only way you will be at peace and happy.
hi a: :) woo-woo!
Greets to the webmaster of this wonderful site! Keep up the good work. Thanks.
