If the only way a person can debate with another party is by insighting prejudices.... what does that say about that person.

LBJ President, states after the Civil Rights bill is enacted
"We have lost the South for a generation"

The bill was sent to the House of Representatives, and referred to the House Judiciary Committee, chaired by Emmanuel Celler. After a series of hearings on the bill, Celler's committee greatly strengthened the act, adding provisions to ban racial discrimination in employment. The bill was reported out of the Judiciary Committee in November 1963, but was then referred to the Rules Committee, whose chairman, Howard W. Smith, indicated his intention to keep the bill bottled up indefinitely

if you have come to the determination that your social scene overall is not what you need and you decide to leave it completely, which would you pursue? A girl i've been crushing on (though i don't think my now over social life would be too impressive); a part time job(to fill the void and increase $); or a move to a new city (dedication to getting the new job/scene)?

I ask a question a while ago:
If God has ultimate power, so that he controls the laws of every aspect of the universe, then why is their pain.

The response I got was that his ultimate purpose for us is to build our character.

My question is if he has ULTIMATE power, shouldn't he be able to build our character equally effectively without pain? ... or does he want pain to exhist.

I have downloaded icalls on my computer because they said that you can make free calls from pc to landline in the US.

The interested thing is that they won't let me sign in for ages. And just one time I was able to sign in and they wouldn't let me call anybody. What the use of this software if it won't work?
Anybody out there had similar problems?

Am I wrong? Am I the one who is making the mistake of losing someone over something dumb?
Am I wrong for feeling this way?
My boyfriend smoked pot when I met him. I also smoked awhile ago when I met him(about 3 years ago). I only smoked for about 3 months and then quit completely. It has been 3 years of me and my bf being together and I can't stand him smoking anymore. When I smoked I use to do it for fun. He says he smokes so he is calm and can just chill. He does smoke like 3 times a day. but only alittle at a time just to calm him down. I just feel like he should not have to smoke when I hang out with him. I try to make him feel comfortable and just feel like I don't make him feel good enough and he needs a drug. When I went over his house last night, after a hour of me being there he asked me to drive him to get some weed. I was only staying for 3 hours. We fought about it, He said he just wanted to be relaxed while I was there....wtf, he was not smoking when he was alone.. I came there to make him feel better. we only chill like twice a week.

Are there any people out there between the ages of 25-40 who don't drink or do drugs? My husband and I feel as though we are a dying breed. We don't drink and have never touched pot or any other drugs. Everyone we meet either neglect their kids to go party and get drunk or sit at home smoking pot and doing drugs in front of there kids! We are 27 and 33 so we aren't young or old. lol Just curious if anyone else has this problem? We have pretty much no friends because we like being a family with our children and not out running around to bars or looking for our next fix. This seems to be a horrible trend, I just don't understand. Ok so I guess my question is are we a dying breed or have we just not met the right people?
