There are many books on the subject, such as: Morris Berman (Dark Ages America) Cullen Murphy(Are We Rome) among many others. My real question is: In saying America is a present day empire, due to forcing it's way of living on other countries and cultures, and mabey the rise of inflation etc. Is is fair to compare an ancient society with one of the present day? Andy why? Your thoughts please?

I know I can say that Im not trying to insult anyone or start any angered uproars but I guess they cant be avoided in this forum. So since Im truly wondering....ill ask anyway....
According to Christian doctrines, we are sinners the day we are born. But in the womb we are pure and free of sin. That implies a distinction between fetus and baby. In abortion arguments, it often comes down to the question of where life begins. So why is the distinction in the theory of Original Sin not the same as the distinction of where life begins?

The lyrics suggest that the singer is pretty in love with the girl. Yet in the chorus, he says she's "not much of a girlfriend. I never seem to get a lot." To me that sounds like he's not completely happy with her. What's with the mixed message?

I recently completed writing a book with a the help of a professional editor. A few published authors plus myself agree that it is a real page turner and it has been my dream to get it published. Please do not reply about self-publishing as I have no interest in that at all but would be so grateful if anyone can tell me about a publishing house accepting new novels and how to contact them. I thank you in advance afor anything you can tell me. Cherie

1. Tax Relief for working Americans. His tax plan saved me 7K last year. I used that money to keep my kids in Private School where they learn the 3 r's.....not about heather having 2 mommies or how to put a condom on a bannana. Like they did GM & Ford, the unions have destroyed public education.
2. Honor & Dignity back in the oval office. It's important for me that my kids can look at our president and be proud. In Bush's oval office you have to wear a suit and a tie. Under Clinton, any chubby 19 year old intern could come in wearing a g-string, knee pads and carrying some k-y jelly. You have to admit LIBS. It's kind of nice having a President who does not spend all his time in front of special prosecutors, Grand Juries and Impeachment Hearings!
(Unlike Clinton, NO Prominent ELECTED official, or Major RESPECTED news outlet is EVEN calling for Impeachment hearings or Grand Jury investigations of BUSH)

They started out as caterpillars, so we put tape around the trees...that seemed to do the trick. But it's now a month or two later and they're literally swarming in my neighborhood. I don't live in the suburbs, I live in an area surrounded by wooded areas, so at least I saved my trees with the tape. But what can I do to kill them? They look like they're trying to find a place to nest in shaded areas on trash cans, fallen logs, etc. If this keeps up for several consecutive years, I believe that they can destroy the trees around my house. My neighbor bought a bug lamp, but the gypsy moths never really come out at night so it doesn't do much. I'm really out of ideas.

Before I continue, I would like to ask you to please take this question seriously. A few minutes ago my friend called me and was asking me if i knew what this meant. She said "I can see through objects, I have to focus though. But do you know what this means?". And i've never heard of anyone having this ability before. She called me because she knew that I would listen to her, and because we're both indigo children. I have a few weird gifts of my own also. But people don't believe that we can do these things because we are just 13 year olds. I'm kindof the leader of a little group of indigo and crystal children and we teach eachother what we know. So they come to me for advice and I don't always have the answers for them. If you have ever heard of this "X-ray vision" gift than please post a link with info about it, so I can show it to my friend. Thanks,
~Dakotah

My dwarf hamster's cage was pushed off the dresser (by one of the cats) and he remained inside. The other hamster in there broke his back and died instantly while this one only seems to have hurt his back leg. He's not using it and dragging it around. He seems okay other than the fact that he seems to sleep more (he is no longer very active at night like he used to be). Will he live through this? I've only had him a few weeks and I really don't want to pay the 70 dollars the vets are asking for (since the hamster only cost me 3).

To clarify, I am a white male, and have dated nothing but Asian women since I started pursuing girls in high school. If beauty in in the eye of the beholder, then my reason is this: I find the almond eyes, the facial features, and body types appealing. In Filipino women I find the darker skin very sexy. But my attraction is not superficially skin deep. I can speak Tagalog fluently as well as Japanese, and just because they might be Asian, thats not reason enough for me to jump on the first one I see. I value the cultural background & personality as most important. So if I'm attracted to features that just so happen to fall under the race category would It still be considered being racist? Curious on your thoughts.
