Why is it that people who claim to be against bigotry and small-mindedness say "Well, ALL southerners (or Texans in my case) are redneck racists..." and things like that? Anyone else had this experience? (essembly.com and places like that)

pre-9/11. Now we're whining, crying, pissing, moaning, b*tching, arguing, and yelling at each other just like we were, probably worse.

What the heck is wrong with this country anyway? For a brief moment after 9/11, I actually got to see what this country could be like if we were actually united, and it was pretty cool. Now, back to the same old same old. What's your take?

The police won't do anything because they say they are not threatening her. We have some kids pranking my daughters cell phone. They are blocking their calls but calling one right after another. Little do they know when they block their # it still shows up on my Cingular Bill. Waiting to find out right now as soon as it updates. Just ticks me off they say "well just change your number"..thats BS. Why should I be inconvenienced by some little brats that have nothing better to do?

Not only dropping the "bomb" over japan, but also fire bombings of Japan, and the carpet bombings of Germany. It was common knowldegde civilians would die in all of those raids, but they were sent and dropped on those countries.

Would the press of today splatter the TV with images of dead civilians or would they talk about how the bombings will help end the war and bring victory for our country?

If a nuclear device (even a dirty bomb) is used in a major U.S. city by terrorists that kills hundreds of thousands (possibly millions), what do you think the U.S. will do militarily and politically? How do you think U.S. citizens will react and feel about any aggression taken after? (NOTE: Only serious, honest and educated answers, please. Short, irrelevant answers will be reported.)

Lets have a tax payer revolt...when are we going to oust all the politicians currently in office? How do we let them stay? Major Oil Companies recording record profits - Exxon $33,000 a minute. Tax breaks given for exploration but nothing going on. Manufacturing jobs being lost. I say it is time to oust all incumbent politicians regardless of party and say ... "OK, listen to us and if you don't, you will be out next election". The only thing they care about is staying in office...not you, I or this country.

I have an imposter, Those that know of me will easily spot this person by their Questions. The style is similar to one who usually posts "stupid questions of the day" . I have no remorse for what I have done to this person, real or imagined. I have sent Yahoo the particulars of this impersonation. My question remains, When will the criminal element amongst us be stopped?

I can bet you a lot that if I befriended an antisemetic person(like I ever would) and they didn't know that I was Jewish, that they would really like me as a friend. If I told them that I was Jewish, though, they would hate me all of a sudden. It's the same thing with African Americans, Jews, Muslims... etc.

Why do people hate before they get to know people?

Do you know how embarressing it is to one race/religion when one person who follows that religion/race does an idiotic thing?(Nazis,kkk, etc.) At one point, I was thinking that all Christians and Catholics were similar to the Nazis(Which OF COURSE I know isn't true)

What has happened to this world? I mean, I'm 13 and I have these questions. Will I have more and more unanswered questions as I get older?

AND TORAH LAW THE JEWISH PEOPLE ARE FORBIDDEN TO HAVE THEIR OWN STATE WHILE AWAITING THE MESSIANIC ERA"?

The Creator gave us the Holy Land thousands of years ago. Yet, when we sinned, He took it away and sent us into exile. Since that time our task is to wait for Him to send the Messiah. At that time, the Creator alone, without any human being lifting a hand or saying a word, will bring us together and take us out of exile. He will likewise establish universal peace among all mankind and all will serve Him in good will.

Some religious Jews, confused by Zionist propaganda quote Biblical verses that state that G-d gave the children of Israel the Holy Land. They overlook, unfortunately, those verses which say that He took it away due to our sins. They further ignore those prophecies which explicitly describe the last exile's conclusion as a Divine, not a human process.

The Creator has commanded every Jew to follow the ways of peace and to be loyal to the country where he lives.

If it is about land? Even Jordan kicked out the Palestinians: if not even any Arab/Muslim countries want the Palestinians, then why should the Jews accept them with open arms when they openly call for the destruction of Israel?

If it is about religion, why is the Middle East not content with being 99% Muslim and 1% Jewish, why must they be 100% Muslim?
