# It's not alienated anybody so far
and if two little words such as that did then I probably wouldn't want to be that close to them anyway.

# Think about it, what is the purpose of that tag?
When you say "I'm X/Y/Z" you are establishing differences between yourself and one group whilst associating yourself with another. Now I know there's no way you can believe 100% of what the church teaches partially 'cause it's not exactly concrete and often contradictary but mostly because people just don't work like that. A word like Christian is a ridiculously huge net for what is likely a unique and specific set of values you hold dear. What's more is that for me it just doesn't feel right. It's like trying to describe a summer sky armed only with the word 'blue'. Sure, the sky is often blue but does that really do it justice? I say just be you. Food for thought anyways.

# Not really
You have your views on the subject, but what I do or do not label myself is entirely my choice. That you don't is fine, and i'm sure that makes you very happy. This is what makes me happy, though.

And being friends with goths I've had all this maaaany times over. :D They're still trying to get me to worship Anne Rice or some other such bollocks.

# Cool, though it does come across as a bit sharp when you respond with a fact I'm already aware of
Right now I think I'll believe that Iron Maiden's new album is absolutely awesome. *Rocks out*

# Another one?
Bloody hell.

My parents knew Bruce Dickinson back when he still used his own name in Sheffield. Bruce is actually his dad's name (they knew his dad more). His real name's Paul and he's got halitosis.

# Hahahaha, nice insight
The closest I've been to mr Dickinson is about 20 feet so I can't say I've smelt it myself but yeah, a new album. Wonderfully diverse too, like nothing they've ever recorded before but still distinctly Maiden and with the wonderful raw edge that seemed to be lost with age.

# FAG TIME
You bastards, driving me to the cancer sticks.

Last album I got was Peeping Tom's self titled. It's another Mike Patton thing- it's bloody excellent. I think he works with Kid Koala on it....
