Snipers aim for a soldier's heart; congressional leaders aim for the heart of why he serves: Honor, Country, Duty to both. But to congressional leaders, there's no honor in Iraq. There can't be: it's immoral. Illegal. And it's not even their country's war: it's Bush's.


Telling parents their child died for George Bush is telling Christa McAuliffe's folks she died for Ronald Reagan.


JFK committed the US to space, but it wasn't his race -- it was America's. Astronauts knew the risks, the myriad of things that could go wrong, yet signed on, boosted by their countrymen as much as by rockets. There's no such lift for soldiers today; they're stranded, ignored unless exploited, gains unseen, achievements unheard. The Tomb of the Unknowns isn't only in Arlington.


It's one thing for leaders to oppose a mission, another to undermine it; one thing to make course corrections, another to sabotage the ship, one thing to overhaul an engine, another to wreck it in flight.

Okay, so I have asked a few questions on here about getting my christmas cactus to bloom. Well, I had it outside this summer as our summers are nice and I put it in the shade. The plant was growing like crazy, little pink leaves were sprouting but still no flower. So, I heard about putting it in total darkness and I did, I put it in the closet. Well I had it in there about a week and I checked AND I have a bloom. It hasn't opened yet, but my question was should I start watering it now or putting it out of the shade? Or just leave it? I can't wait to see it!!!

A 34.0 kg seal at an amusement park slides down a ramp into the pool below. The top of the ramp is 1.55 m higher than the surface of the water and the ramp is inclined at an angle of 30.0° above the horizontal. The seal reaches the water with a speed of 4.90 m/s.
(a) What is the work is done by kinetic friction?
(b) What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the seal and the ramp?

I am having some trouble with this one. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

During a summit meeting in Naples, Italy this week, over 300 religious leaders including Catholics, Protestants, Orthodox, Jews, Muslims, Hindus, and Buddhists have been meeting. The theme of the summit is, "A World Without Violence: Faiths and Cultures in Dialogue." They jointly issued this statement, ”Whoever uses God’s name to hate others, to commit violence, to wage war, they blaspheme God’s name.”

Is this one thing that the religious and the Atheists can agree on?

2007-10-25 05:03:19 · 21 answers · asked by Anonymous in Religion & Spirituality

For years, atheists and theists have debated whether or not there is a God. We've each tried to prove our side; to make things go our way.

But we're forgetting: It's ALREADY happened. Either there is a God, or there isn't--and that fact has already been decided; we simply don't know it yet.

Therefore, why argue? If there is a God, there always will be. If there's not a God, there never will be. Arguing is pointless.

I simply think we all need a wake-up call..

Can't we just accept our own beliefs, stop trying to convert others, and allow the chips to fall where they may?

According to Job 1:7 and 1 Peter 5:8 Satan is not in Hell yet but roams on the earth. But most Christians believe sinners go to Hell immediately at death, such as the rich man in Luke 16:19-31. Does this mean that sinners are worse than the Devil himself. Also, demons are not in Hell yet either, because in the NT they are said to posess people and swine. Your clarification on this is appreciated. Thank You!

Im getting ready to buy a Montblanc and do a good bit of writing. I'm having a hard time deciding whether to get their new fineliner/felt tip which has a nice neat and crisp marker feel and it also takes the regular rollerball refills or should I go with the traditonal fountain pen which is what most writers use it seems? Why do writers generally prefer fountain pens over the other choices? The fineliner and fountain both feel smooth in my hand but the fineliner has a darker heavier inktone to it and the fountain also costs a couple hundred dollars more. Is the fountain worth it in the long run If I'm trying to become a published writer one day? I'm considering the Boheme platinum Doue as a FL/RB or as a fountain pen or maybe the new Cool Blue Starwalker in the RB/ Fineliner version. Thanks for your input!

I have been w/ my husband for 14 years and have been married to him for 10 years now. He has some anger problems and they are really starting to affect the way I feel about him. I have tried to talk to him about going to counseling to help him find ways to control it but he refuses to go and says he is working on it himself. I feel like it is never going to change and that it is going to get worse I have 2 children and I don't want to feel like I am giving up on trying to keep or family together. I feel that if he loved me the way he says he does that he would be trying harder to fix what he knows is hurting our relationship.I know I should proably leave but don't know if that is the right thing to do.
