We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

That's like telling your son to write his name, but he'll never be able to write it.

Ever!

Strive to be like Jesus, who was supposedly perfect.

But, sadly, you'll never be like him.

It's almost like that trick - where money is thrown out onto the street with a string attached to it, and every time you get closer to the money it gets pulled about five inches away from you. Thus, you're just out of reach your entire life. Or, until you decide to not chase it any more. You figure you can make the money on your own (i.e. become a better person without the Bible, Koran, so forth).
