..an extreme image of poverty, destitution and human misery at its worst. Not intending to spoil anybody's mood here but two images haunt me so much that I cannot sleep;

1. Two decades back in famine-struck Ethiopia, there was this image of an emaciated child who breathes her last before a waiting vulture, as if her imminent death would be less painful compared to the existence. It made me so sick at the stomach (I was in school then)

2. Recently there was a CNN newsreel depicting war-torn Darfur region in Sudan; a mother and her five hungry children - with "no hope" written all over her face - it was horrifying.

Even as we write, there are millions of people around the world who're praying to the skies for someone to reach back or at least, allow them to die peacefully which is also not being sanctioned, is it? The Western World, all the institutions of opulence we see around us are built on this depredation and I shudder to think it even when I eat, drink, sleep.

Okay, here's a chance for the atheists and theists to really fight it out. I won't say my religion to keep it neutral.

Rules and Guidelines:
-the Bible/Qu'ran/Torah is not a valid source of information
-You can't just claim stuff randomly
-You must argue logically
-No yelling at other answer-ers, take it seriously.

I'll choose the answer that makes the most sense, whether I agree with it or not.

She just blew it off. notice i said SHE.....she doesnt even care if we care about this! we decided to find some vacent lot and make a girls only skatepark, and if they make is pay, then we will. if the city destroys it, we'll make it again. I dont really know how to make a skatepark, neither do my friends. i know it cost alot of money, but i can get wood and nails and tools from my dad. he's a bulider. and we havee alot of ramps already. does anyone know anything that could come in handy, or someone i could conact to maybe help us get this through! cuz i mean, people dont relize chicks can sk8 the same as, maybe even better than guys. and we dont need to be picked on for it!!! does anyone have any ideas on anyone else i could contact?

I have a mac computer with OS X. I'm planning on getting a D-Link router. Here's my question: Since I have a mac computer with Safari as the internet browser, IF I buy that d-link router, will I still be able to configure it online? I've heard that you need Firefox (which isn't a big deal to download), but I need to know if you MUST have Firefox on a mac to configure a d-link router, or if you can use Safari.
