Is there an argument to be found in the observation that pledging "allegiance" to a "flag" resembles idolatry? Yes, God told us to obey the laws of the land, but do not forget that we can change those laws, policies, and elected officials when they have been corrupted.

I mean, a government acts based on what is most beneficial for its citizens, usually in economic terms. But where some gain, others lose. When Jesus fed the hungry in the paradigm of the fishes and loaves, he wasn't being polite. He was teaching them to share.

The actions of Christ and the actions of the Federal Reserve do not coincide. Would it be a sin to condone an international trade policy that kept others in poverty? Is it folly to shed your beliefs at the ballot box?

I have obsessive-compulsive behavior when it comes to setting my alarm clock. I switch back and forth between the alarm time and the clock time.

unless they have their sights on a bigger piece of the pie...that is, unless Israel realizes that she is still surrounded by 'enemies' and will likely be for decades to come?


Israel, offering Golan, awaits Syria proposals Fri Jun 8,07
JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israel has told Syria it is willing to trade land for peace and is waiting to hear whether President Bashar al-Assad would cut ties with Iran and hostile guerrilla groups in return, Israeli officials said on Friday.
One said Syrian officials had so far indicated a willingness to conduct discreet contacts that might lead to a resumption of formal peace talks after a seven-year hiatus..Two days after Olmert confirmed Israel had sent conciliatory messages to Damascus, Israeli media widely reported a leak to a newspaper that quoted a senior diplomat saying Syria had been reminded that Israel was ready to discuss returning the Golan Heights, captured 40 years ago this week, if peace talks resume.

If you have a home garden, and you grow more than what you can use, what do you do with the extra? Do you give it to friends and family or do you give it to those in need by way of food pantries at churches or a food bank? Do you give it to homeless shelters? Or do you just let it rot and throw it away?

I remember watching this movie when I was little, and really the only thing I remember about the movie was that there were these giant, deadly slugs living in the sewer system, and near the end of the movie, these firemen or some people or whatever went down to flush them out to get rid of them in some manner. Can anyone help me out here? THANKS!

The other day at work, my colleague was palm reading as a joke. I usually only resort to it as a joke. When she read my palm she said I bunch of things about me that I never talk about or I only talk about under the shield of anonimity on the Internet. Similar things ahppened witht eh rest of the colleagues. Now I'm spooked. Becuase she said some pretty amazing things about my future. Just out of curiousity, what has everyone else's experience been with palm reading?

Did not the supposed conservative republicans once lambast the sociolist democrats for a "nation building" mentality, you know, the "lets help($$$$$$) out the poor countries so we can just all get along" mentality? Well, IF Iraq is'nt coming at us at a pretty penny it seems GWB & THE administration wanna up the antie! Appearently, after the "pope" put George on the skillet to soften him up recently while "visiting" in Rome, president Bush promised the pope an "easy" 30 billion to Africa for combating HIV/AIDS. Problem is WE THE TAXPAYERS WILL BE FOOTING THE BILL!!! Who's playing nation builder now??? I mean the UN has enough SCANDALS going on now. Outta that 30 billion the HIV/AIDs project would be lucky to get a song ana dance out of it, as the rest would go into the international elitist pockets!!! Vote for Ron Paul & support your Libertarian party to stop the bilking! Global warming tax fron the demo UN magicians, nation building tax from the repubie UN magicians. Wake up America!
