Ive just dipped into the society & culture section to have a look & got the shock of my life. There seems to be a lot of racism going on there. Then I started to wonder if some of these racist people were also religious/spiritual/had some beliefs of some sort.
I may be living in cloud cuckoo land, but I have a lot of respect for people who are religious or follow a particular belief system. In my experience, they tend to be 'good people.' Do you think I can assume they wont be racist, or does it just not follow?

Okay, a while ago we took my computer to get a dvd burner/player on it. Before it wouldn't do nothing with em. Anywho, I can play DVDs and have to play them in Power DVD. But I want to burn some DVDs of like video's i've made. How do I do that? I've tried looking around the Power DVD, but couldn't find anything. I've also tried with Window's Media Player and that didn't work either. Does Power DVD even have the ability to burn, if so how? If not what can I download that will let me?

Generation Y (15-25 yr olds) seems to have more than its fair share of 'retarts.' What's the main cause?:

--Convenience (cell phones, internet)

--Extreme liberalism and/or leniency (Lack of discipline by parents, teachers)

--A specific style/era of poor teaching/education (cite dates and change in teaching methodology, if possible)

--Side effects of 'political correctness' (lack of frank discussion, lack of firm opinion, unsupported and generic liberal ideology, striving to be 'guilt-free' )

--Other....?

I have a 17 year old daughter. She does not want to visit her father in CT on weekends anymore. She does care for her father but she has so much going on at her home in Mass now that it's difficult to miss work when she mostly works on the weekends.

I dont understand why it would be catastrophic to the church if Jesus were married. I think what would be more catastrophic is to remind people that he was Jewish and he never renounced his religion. Besides Jewish men are not supposed to wear beards till they are married and every rendering (pictures) of Jesus we have show him with a beard.?? Thank you in advance for your opinions.

People complain about society not valueing each other enough. I think we value each other too much.

Who is to say humans have any inherent worth? Some sky daddy? Personal preference?

How can that mean anything? Sky daddy is a stupid fantasy and everyone has different preferences which means there is no universal standard of worth. For example, you probably love your kids, I probably would love to see them drown in a lake of motor oil.

From the way I see it, humans (any and all humans) are good for three things: hunting, tormenting, and exploiting. Might as well because I'm here to do it. Here I am.

Do you agree? If not, what are your reasons? Please do not mention sky daddy...I mean God. I will laugh the paint off my face.

Everybody says they are a gay band and their listeners are gay but the only thing that makes people beleive that is that they claim the music is lifting and upbeat when most of it really isn't, just really sad songs. Do you like coldplay and do you think they are gay

What else can you offer to convince me to abandon evolution, and accept biblical explanations as a means for understanding the natural world. Before I toss out this hundred year old accepted theory, I want to be absolutely sure science is as confused you claim it is. Lets do a quick exam...

Engineering & Mathematics
well bridges stand, boats float, planes fly, satellites stay in orbit. I guess science has it's act together here.

Biology
It's cured diseases, prevented plagues, increased lifespans, reduced infant mortality, improved crop yields. I guess science gets the nod.

Physics
We have electricity, heat, running water, mass transportation - not too shabby!

Technology
Cell phones, computers, MRI machines, space shuttles - gotta give it to science again!

Chemistry
Hmmm, soap, toothpaste, cough syrup, food preservatives, perfume, lysol - can't damn science for making the world smell better.

Evolution
A totally screwed up, useless, evil theory.

So, lets abandon science, shall we?

I had sex with my friend on April 20th. I got my period during the first week of April and I haven't gotten it since then. And it is now June. My period usually comes around the last/first week of every month and is hardly ever late. I missed it last month and haven't gotten it yet this month.

When we had sex we used a condom and he pulled out. Is there still a chance that I could've gotten pregnant...maybe after he took the condom off or something? I know it's probably a slim chance but is it still possible? how likely is it that i got pregnant from it?

if i haven't gotten my period in the next two weeks i plan on taking a home test. Should I tell my friend? He still doesn't know anything about this. should i tell him now or wait until i am ready to take the test or after or not at all?

we are both 17 right now and turning 18 this year. we will also both be seniors in high school this fall.

him and i are really good friends and get along great but we are not in a relatio

If you want 10 points, then be experienced at this subject, Cutting and pasting site I can do myself by searching. I am hoping to find some good simple basic books or info on general propogation to skip the failures as much as possible. I know tons on flowers and if you want the most excellent book on starting flowers from seed, it is "From Seed to Bloom" by Eileen Powell, mine is 1995 and it is very very very good because she tells which are hard and which are easy etc. So how about a trade for some info on a book like this IF YOU HAVE USED IT AND KNOW FOR SURE. THANKS

I am about $5,000 in debt (NONE OF WHICH IS FROM A CREDIT CARD...I'VE NEVER HAD ONE) and my credit score is a lot lower than I would like it to be. Most of my balance is either medical or utility.

If I pay a $100 balance with a doctors office how much will it raise my score? Or in general if I pay anything off on my credit report how much does it raise the score?
