For instance, to believe there is such a thing as a black hole requires faith in another person...an astronomer or physicist. It even takes faith in the author of the article you read about black holes in. For that matter, it takes faith that your eyes see the right words, that you see at all rather than imagine it, and that you even exist in the first place...and thusly regresses to a base level of faith...faith in one's senses. But what about faith in logic? What about faith in the scientific process actually doing what we want it to (it is assumed that past events will dictate future events, and we proceed based on faith that they actually will). But when you decide to have faith in this religious text, or that one, we agree, it is quite a different story. So, where SHOULD our faith begin and where should it end, to be honorable, responsible beings throughout life?

32.9 million people are classified as living below the official poverty line ($18,104 for family of four) in 2001. [If you adjust the official poverty line to the inflation, the number of poor Americans would have been be closer to 50 million in 1999, when the official number was 35 million]

* The poorest 20% of U.S. households received less than 5% of all income in 2000.

* 16% of children under the age of 18 are living in poverty.

* In 2001, 26.4% of female-headed families were below the poverty threshold, and in such families the average income was about 60% less than the median income of all families.

* Almost 23% of the black population and 21.4% of people of Spanish-speaking descent have incomes below the official poverty line, compared with 9.9% of the white population.

* About 1.35 million children-nearly 2% of the nation's total-are homeless.

I have new honey locust trees that I planted last fall. They are only a little over 7 feet tall, not very mature at all. Should I cut off the new shoots on the trunk? How do I know how low down on trunk I should let new shoots grow, etc., or do I just cut off all new shoots?

It's a win-win situation for me. If the ghost ends up whooping my a$$, I'll be rich and famous. Every news outlet from Diane Sawyer to Matt Lauer would want the exclusive and all the ghastly details. If the ghost is my friend, I still be rich and famous for the being the first guy to talk to a spirit and actually have enough sense to videotape it!!!! So please......... no BEWARE rants. Just show me how to use the board!!!!

I really don't need advice but wonder how others would view this...I was a cancer nurse for many years and gave doctor ordered chemotherapy to patients in the hospital. Gradually, I decided that chemotherapy was not the ideal therapy for cancer and that I had inadvertantly harmed people while thinking I was helping them. So what would my culpability be in contributing to their ultimate deaths? Any thoughts?

Don't worry I have resolved this issue in my mind but it is a good example of how wrong doing or 'sin' is pretty much in the mind of each individual...

So would God hold me accountable or is my Karma bad?

I need some ideas for a 3-5 paged paper about someone or something significant in the 60s. I want to do something different. Not something ordinary like, JFK's assassination, or the British Invasion... something different.. but awesome. Catch my drift?

Any help will be appreciated.

I am somewhat confused.
My council tax bill states that my bill is from April 2007 until March 2008 and that I can pay monthly by installments over 10 months, ergo, PAYING IN ADVANCE FOR SERVICES NOT YET RECEIVED!!!!!!
If I fall behind with these payments, can I legally be prosecuted / have bailiffs banging on my door / go to prison for NOT paying for services I have not yet received??
How can I be in arrears for something I have not yet had ie, how can I be prosecuted this year for not paying for my February 2008 bin collection?
Is this a breach of my human rights?
Do you know of anything else that this applies to?

"Christianity is not a religion.It's a belief."

"I don't believe in religion.I have faith."

"Don't call me religious.I am faithful."

Statements like these are just splitting hairs.Christianity is a religion.Albeit there are many denominations of it.But it is all a religion.Faith, in fact, is part of the definition of religion and so to have faith in a God and follow religious texts (the Bible, Koran,Torah) and to go to places of worship are by definition to be a person who practices and is a part of religion.

If you doubt that you should actually see the dictionary definition of religion.

So, why do people try to split hairs and differentiate the meanings of the word "faith" from the word "religion" even though there is no difference?

My manager who has never liked me and is just a very rude person, was chatting at lunch with another colleague and me and we both replied to the other girl's question together (OK maybe I was a bit after her but I just continued - I am older after all!), and she just fixed me with his long glare, at least 10 seconds.How would YOU react to this?
