I didn't know much about it but I saw an episode of Fronline that filled me in. There is Oil in the Sudan and the Chinese have bought the govt there. The Sudan Govt is supplying viscious arab bandits with weapons and support to do the worst things you can imagine to the indigenous African tribes there and mostly killing villages of them at a rate of about 6,000 killings per month. This has been going on since the early nineties. The UN has talked about it but done nothing until this year. My thoughts were the least someone could do would be to arm the Africans.

Does anyone even watch NFL games anymore?

I see no reason to watch NFL games since half of the starting quarterbacks are out with injuries and the Patriots cheat. Why waste time watching the NFL games?

3 Stooges? If you had to pick one episode.?

If you had to choose one episode to show someone from another country or planet, who generally knew who they were (eyepoking, nuk nuk ect.) but never watched a show. Which one would you pick that represents them the best. I would say the one where they're running around the city selling Brite-O! Which is your favorite?

Is it true that Aztecs called chocolate the food of the gods?

Or is that chocolate industry hype? Before anybody else points it out, I know the Aztecs didn't make chocolate bars like we do now.

My girlfriend wants to stop taking Birth Control,?

My girlfriend started on the Orthro-Lo about 3 months ago after a missed period scare. Now that she has been taking it, she says that she is lot more moody and gets heated up easily. She had also gained a few pounds, but she still looks great.

She wants to stop taking the pill because its making her fat, and gets her moody. We have spoken about this, and I had told her that she needs to let the doctor know so we can find other BC options, but she just wants to get off of it.

We are in a committed relationship and dont want to be selfish, but I like riding bare

Are there any other options? Am I being selfish for wanting her not to get pregnanct?

If you were a guy, would be okay or let your girl sleep with your best friend(guy)?

He seems to have no problem with the idea of "sharing" me to "make me happy". I would honestly only be okay with doing it with him since i love him, but he doesnt seem to care about makin me "happy" wen im with him. I've even cried several times since i was so unhappy with how selfish he was seeming to be.

how many Christians can live with Hospice rules not to convert the dying?

are you a volunteer, could you actually love people and not try and "save" them?

can you just love people, watch them decline, die and just be there for them?

does that go against Jesus or Christianity in some way?

Biblical accuracy?

How can the bible be accurate and unchanged if Nazareth was not a town in the time of Jesus?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazareth#Earliest_history_.26_archaeological_evidence

There is archaeological evidence from before the 1st century, there is archaeological evidence from the 2nd century, but there is no evidence for a city existing there in the 1st century.

Also, there is no cliff at all for Jesus to be thrown off, as 'documented' by Luke.

Who thinks that a Jesus came from Nazareth, and who thinks that the Nazareth part got added at a later date?

2000 Ford Windstar intermittent starting issues?

My nanny drives a 2000 Ford Windstar minivan, and sometimes it doesn't start, as if it is not getting any gas. We took it to the mechanic, but could not find anything wrong. The battery is good, the starter is good, starter celenoid (sp?) is good, fuel pump good, and the fuel filter was changed. I insist that the nanny uses 91 octane gasoline sold at reputable stations (chevron, shell, etc.). The starting problem is a concern for me because the nanny picks up my daughters at school, and takes them to ballet lessons, etc.

The starting problem is a mystery to me. The most difficult thing is that this doesn't happen all the time. Just occasionally. Someone suggested that we should not let the gas tank get under half full. Well, the tank was over half full when the van wouldn't start the last time. I have read that there was a recall having to do with the fuel lines. Could this have something to do with it?

Your responses are appreciated.

How can it be considered anti-American or anti-Republican to oppose Bush's radical expansion of...............

Presidential powers (signing statements that negate the actual bill he is signing, warrantless domestic wiretaps etc.) since he only has a short time left in office and any Democrat who is elected President would benefit from these same powers?

Doesn't this lead to the conclusion that opposition to these powers originates from a genuine concern about the preservation of our Constitution?

Husbands have pressure? Are you kidding me?

Do a quick y!search on "expectations of a husband" and you'll find such phrases like "shouldn't expect" and "I expect too much"

Do a quick y!search on "expectations of a wife" and you'll find such phrases like "learn what a GOOD wife does" and "perfection to his expectations"

What gives...husbands...pressure...come on now, you're joking right? Being a husband has got to be the simplist thing on the planet, not even an infant has it so good! (even single men have it harder!).

Why do we pretend that Islam is a force for good in this world?

I just saw a story on CNN about a Saudi woman who was gang raped. The result; she was sentenced to 6 months in prison and 200 lashes. Why is the West is so obsessed with portraying Islam as a positive force in the world? Does the rhetoric match reality? I know that there are all kinds of Muslims (devout, lapsed, practicing, in name only, etc.), but it seems to me, as a casual observer, that the more devout the Muslim, the more likely he is to be backwards and dangerous. Just look at the Middle East; by and large, it is fascist, autocratic or theocratic, women are subjugated and minorities persecuted. Islamic countries are rife with poverty and have been for centuries. Would any of you apologetics who are going to respond to this posting calling me a racist (confusing a religious ideology with a race) really choose to live in Riyad over the US? It seems to me that the Muslim world is a lot like 15th century Spain; backwards and cruel. Why pretend otherwise?
