RAMJET
Written by Semper Fi Reborn

There I was a young Marine,
Behind the enemies lines.
Gunfire flying over my head,
While I'm laying with land mines.

The Sarge is barking, "TAKE THAT HILL",
Marines charge to comply.
Yet every man that charged the hill,
Was swatted like a fly.

This went on two bloody days,
And for three scream filled nights.
Until the Gunny took command,
To turn the tide of the fight.

He brought in a secret weapon,
The rumors said a sure bet.
We Marines did finally take that hill,
By using a RAMJET!

It could have been more reasonable because germans was the only guilty of jew holocaust not the palestinian people. On the contrary, allies helped Israel to invade a innocent country, just based in the fundamentalist idea of the "promised land". I find it very unjust.

I love philosyphy! But i am a devoted cathlolic. Question i hear are like" what's the purpos in life?" but noboddy says to serve god. Another,"Is or life predifined or self-controlled?" Nobody says God controlls it. Has the Earth turned so God-less? Or was that threaded discussion full of atheist? Why be an athiest and have a harder time in life? If you beleived in some deity that's better than none! There's no down side to God! Why try disproving him/her? I love god, i don't always have agreat day, but i still can say i have somebody/spirit that loves me. Really that's all God wants to do for you! ALl God wants to do is love you and Make you have a happy life. Many Atheist i know don't like God b/c they don's have a good life or life isn't good for them. That doesn't mean God hates you! Why do atheist hate god?
* most really hate how others carry on about how great he is. Not him. They get confused but for long devoted Athiest.++Why is science and philosiphy excluding God?

What do you think World War Three will be about, and where will it take place? I personally think the Germans are cooking something up for the occasion. It appears to be a German Tradition to start major fights or atleast take place in them.

I'm looking for a good book-well worth my time reading it. At the moment I am reading a book called Twilight about a girl who falls in love with a vampire. It's the first book I red that keeps me awake. Honestly it will be the first book I will actually finish. It's up to date, funny, and spooky.

I would love some suggestions for really good books. I enjoy reading
Dramas-Romance'es-action/adventures- and vampire stroys.

It has to be easy to comprehend, and keep a 15 year old interested.

Know of any?

Hi, I'm reading The Human web by John McNeill and I was wondering if there are any websites that summarize it by chapters or anything. I tried reading it, but nothing sinks in.

Japan, of course. Christian Italy and Germany against other Europeans practicing Christianity, plus the Soviet Union. (The U.S. came into to the war just before the end, of course).

Sudden thought: Imagine a dictionary containing all the words in a language. Whatever the word we want do define in that language, we need other words (of the same language) to define it, right? For example, if the definition of "chair" is "object used to seat on", and if I didn't know what that means, I would have to go search for the meanings of "object", "used", "to", "seat" and "on" (on the same dictionary). Doesn't this result ultimately in some kind of logic absurdity, when we will be defining words in a loop, ending up trying to explain words with words we are trying to define? Would we need to have self-defining or self-explanatory words? What do you think?
