first off, i doubt anyone's getting heated, it's healthy debate, shedding light on an issue. secondly, jay said it well, it is a personal belief, so it's hard to hate on that, considering the high aspirations of it. however, chris was pretty accurate in saying i think "little Mr. Wants to be edge" (not to belittle you brandon, just putting how insignificant you as a problem is) is really the least of your worries. and even if it were brandon that somehow influenced kids into drinking, well then good riddance. they weren't heartfelt, true straight edge people in the first place, and that was all it took to show it. however, there is a much bigger threat in the hands of edge. (or crews, or whatever. i'm not trying to generalize, just address what it is i'm talking about.)

It's in our human nature to be superior over everyone else and always right. Some people just act on it more than others. People like the satisfaction in knowing what they have to say is accepted as right by the other party and most wont give up until they gt that gratitutde.

my one cent: I think people take life too seriously. both agreed, and disagreed. sometimes people put too much into thought, and really miss their life as an experience. on the other hand, however, this IS our life, and until further proof is provided, we are to believe it is the only one we'll ever have, and there is nothing else but our lives to take seriously. this is true for a religious man, too, for different reasons.

Personally, I don't have any rules, aside from the current laws that we all abide by. I'm definately not saying I like getting shitty drunk every day, but I'm not going to say "I'm NEVER going to drink because drinking is dumb! and anyone who drinks is dumb, cuz it's dumb and my dad was an alcoholic and thats dumb." (yes, I know not EVERY xxx person out there is like this) Of course there is the opposite, where you are drinking, drugging, and sexing so much you are missing out on potential life expieriences, but too set a strict rule that for the REST OF YOUR LIFE you're not going to do something is irrational, immature, and unrealistic. Everyone knows what is right, and everyone knows what is wrong. I feel people just like standing out in their extreme ways of life or people need a "crutch" to help support them through life, like many people use religion. EDIT: I apologize if that was totally random and off topic as to what was going on with the thread, I haven't been following it.

OMG !!!! seriously this whole post is the biggest crock of self righteous bullshit Ive seen. if yer edge who gives a shit if you drink who gives a shit if yer religeous or not who cares. DIDN'T ANYONE EVER TEACH YOU TO EACH THEIR OWN? if yer edge cool. be edge IM NOT! I don't give a shit what u do but if you try and kick my ass for it you better pack a fucking lunch cause I am in NO WAY going to tolerate you fucking persecuting me for my beliefs thats fucking fascist ! I don't do drugs I do drink socially when I feel like it. NOTHING rules my life. and me smoking is my choice. sorry you don't but guess what? you have to fucking live with it. thats the way it is you CANNOT change it. not with force or numbers or anything. you wanna live where someone calls all the shots and makes your choices for you move to another country. this whole way of life judgment bullshit can fuck right off. I like edge kids. the ones that do what they want and keep it to themselves. you muther feltchers that wanna change the world to fit it better for yourself can eat my ass. are you gonna tell a homosexual he cant be gay cause it disgusts you? I could go on and n and on about this. BUT theres no point cause theres np changing any of this. theres will always be assholes trying to judge and such from all sides. religeous edge etc. did you knwp that you POLLUTE the world? with your car or that you are filling land fills with your garbage cause you dont recycle?? seriously find something else thats more productive to do with yer time like plant a fucking tree and actually do something HELPFUL. if thats what your trying to do. if all you wanna do is bitch about people claiming edge or bible bullshit get lost. theres so much more to life and theres already to much to worry about. IF YOU DON'T HAVE SOMETHING NICE TO SAY, DON'T SAY ANYTHING AT ALL seriously. I like everyone who is nice to me. I have nothing to say about anyone else's choices. dotn get so worked up about what others are doing. if they are claiming something thats important to you what makes you the one who tells them where their wron? how else can new things form if your gonna stand there and try and stop them. yer NOT GOD if there is a god. BTW im in no way religeous and i drink and smoke and claim NOTHING why ? BECASUE ITS NOT IMPORTANT TO ME TO TRY AND MAKE PEOPLE UNDERSTAND WHY? because people will figure out what makes them happy on thei own and as long as they are cool to me I dont care if they are rude to me its as simple and staying away friom them and keeping myself happy as well. TRY IT
