First I'd wish for a hundred million dollars (made over a number of years so that its sudden presence does not upset world markets) and make movies. I'll keep the rest for a rainy day.

1. Ok, let's see here. I'd wish to have free and unlimited access to be bodily transported to the throne room of God (and of course be welcome there:)

2. That everyone on Earth would be Christian and act like it.

3. umm, what else is there. If I can talk to and see God and everyone is a generous Christian, yep that takes care of everythign.

As to the matrix thing, I'd want to upload everything ever written, online and off. Of course I'd also want to be able to forget any of it at will, because hey, let's admit it, there's a lot of bad stuff out there.

I don't know, but it would probably involve money. :sweat:

As for "downloading" things: Well, it would be really nice to know a lot of languages. A lot about most things, actually. But I don't think it would be good for me. If knowledge came to easily, I might get proud and obnoxious.

That's an excellent point. I would probably be tempted to wish for virtues of some sort (poverty, chastity, and humility? faith, hope, and love?), but there is probably some value in the very process of becoming more Christ-like.

Yes, SA is the anti-fur/anti-furry* capital of teh internet, and being a fur means that they're all out to kill me.

* The distinction between a fur and a furry should be made. Furries are nuts who share one or more of the following ideas/atributes: a) the belief that their soul is actually truly an animal spirit, b) fursuits and bodypaints, c) "yiff" anything that breathes (and oft stuff that doesn't), d) often include howls, barks, roars, chirps, and other such noises in their every-day vocabulary (online and off), e) known for their love of drama (eg, cutting themselves when people "steal" the art they posted on the net would be an example. More often they'll just cry and give webmasters a hard time and might even throw in the word "lawsuit"), f) feel that a good fursona must contain wings that would be unnatural for the speci they have chosen, oversized bangs, outrageous colors in their natural hair color, g) like the idea of having 2 tails (I call this MTP syndrome and a free cookie to anyone who can tell me why), h) play Furcadia. The list is longer than this, but these are what I consider to be the basics. Considering these things, SA has every right to be anti-furry. But furs are different in that they do none of the above things, or at most very few of them and on rare occasions. This is why it's stupid that SA groups furs and furries together in one colective group, which is why my wish that it remains dead still stands :grin:

1. Immortality.
2. Super powers i.e. flying, invisiblity, strength, mind-reading etc. Although psychic abilities would take the cake, as I could propel my body to fly, cloud people's minds, increase my own strength and read thoughts all with my mind.
3. To always have the exact amount of money in my pocket for whatever I'm purchasing. In all my clothes.

As for the Matrix...

1. The entire Bible as it happened.
2. Fencing/ swordfighting techniques.
3. Memory.

You don't know how long I have been thinking about this. ^^

1. I would wish I could turn into any animal, and back into a human whenever I wanted.

2. Wish I could go where ever I wanted whenever I wanted.

3. I knew every language, I guess.

Wishes:
1. The ability to fly- I wouldn't want to be able to read other's minds, that could get weird real fast...
2. Be the lead guitarist and singer in a kick butt rock band and put out tons of cd's that everyone likes.
3. Fluently speak every language in the world- this way, I could make people in every country laugh by telling them a joke in their native tongue.

Matrix:
1. The funniest jokes in the world
2. The knowledge of how to build a guitar
3. The phone numbers of all the people I would like to meet- except for the people I would have like to meet who are dead.

You've done an excellent job of telling us what furries are (and how furs are not those things), but what exactly would you define as a "fur" in positive terms?

And regardless of the answer, my wish that SA would remain still stands :P .

1. To be born 100% Irish!
2. To lay down in the grass on a lone hill sourrounded by mountains while watching the sky float the clouds along gently like leaves on a river, as i count my blessing and bask in the Lord's sunishine (this one may come true!)
3. That my life would be entirely focused on God, even when my earthly body would like to do other things.

Well, furs are pretty well seperated from furries. Furs accept that they are human and that they aren't possessed by the spirit of a fox or whatever. They understand that their fursona and any furry characters they make are still fiction and just for some fun. Fursuits are weird, and anthrocons are more of a thing for furries than furs. A fur's fursona won't have too much to do with the cliche furry model (half dragon, half two-tailed fox with wings, long purple and green hair and the ability to shapeshift or something like that), but they may chose to go with something that makes them stick out in a unique way (my fursona lost his arm in battle and now sports an Ed FMA style metalic arm). Furs don't howl... maybe you'll catch one with whiskers tho. =^_^=

hopefully you get the picture
:sweat:
