if someone that was a pagan ran for president and had really good points and seem like he would be a good president would you vote for him even though he is not a christian. its seems today that all the pior presidents have been extream christians and the ones that are'nt are never really seriouly considered for presidentcy?

Me and my husband where married july 29th lats year. he left for basic training in September, came home for cristmas, then graduated at the end of January. he was home for a few months and left again in April for training to go overseas. he came home for 10 days in July, and left for Iraq. He came home for his leave in the beggining of November, and now he won't be back home untill July next year. Our daughter will turn 3 in February, and last night while we were watching tv before bed, she asked me first if she had made daddy go away. I told her no, daddy doesnt want to be away, and he misses her very much, and then she asked me if daddy was going to die. She has always reasoned at a level much older than her own, but I just don't know how to answer these questions from someone so young, and it hurts so badly. Please, does anyone have any advice on this? I just don't know what to do.

do you think we should have a national dna database? just think of the resourses that could be saved , faster clear up rates would mean less opportunities for criminals to re offend. the civil liberties argument holds no water...it could be written into the law that dna evidence would only be admissible in certain types of crimes,murder, rape ,extreme violence etc...can anyone come up with a valid reason against it?

These days where there is a clear cut case with DNA proof, do you agree with me that pedo's and sex attackers and cold blooded murderers should be killed off? - we'd relieve the over crowded prisons and justice would be done.

Why try to re habilitate - it;s not worth it!

As a law obiding citezen, I feel that should I decide to go on the dole, sick or commit a crime I would be better off! -

The Government seem to be railroading everything - without consulting the people - Taxes up and up and up, Going to War, inefficiency in the Health Service, Poor Education, out of control YOBS.... etc. How can we (the public) be heard before we get to the next election?

Bit real hard into the earring... broke the stud right off.
My tooth is aching and I can feel a little chip but not really visible.
Went back and they offered me another burrito... as if I want another one from that restaurant...
Anyways my brother said I could sue because he is taking a business law class.

But if anyone who is an attorney out there can answer this question, that would be great.

Heard it might be a waste of time.. and I heard I could get something out of it..

But the bottom line... I want more than just a burrito... maybe even more than just the $5 I paid for the burrito.

What is the point of politicians spouting green, green, green to brainwash us all, on our tiny overcrowded island, when the burning of the Indonesian Peat Bogs emits into the atmosphere in ONE DAY as much Carbon Dioxide as the UK emits in ONE YEAR!

Burning peat bogs set alight by rainforest clearance in Indonesia are releasing up to a seventh of the world's total fossil fuel emissions in a single year.

Handle that Gordon Brown and David Cameron before you start using CO2 as another way to lumber us with more taxes to fund your desired salary increases - of 66% - see link below!

Killing of animals that are other people's property (deer in the King's forest) that are not vermin (designated unwanted animals) has historically been subject of laws.

What is shooting the neighbour's cat, punching the rabbit to death, roasting the tortoise on open fire, setting a territer on a guinea pig, running the snake over in a lawnmower: is it theft or criminal damage (UK)?

We are looking for a safer enviroment. Thank You - Larry Garvin - garvinyc3@yahoo.com

I have an appeal filed in the year 2000 pending in the High Court, Mumbai. The original suit is 35 years old - and the matter has to revert back to the trial court after the appeal in the high court.

In spite of it being such an old matter, the high court does not seem to be interested in hearing the appeal. Everyday it hears appeals in matters filed even decades after my matter, but presumably is too busy to hear mine.

I have been told that I can file a Special Leave Petition (SLP) in the Supreme Court, but the SLP has to be filed against an order passed by the High Court. In this case there is no order - the matter is just orally refused to be heard.

What is the solution? How do I file a special leave petition in the supreme court asking it to expedite the hearing of my appeal, without there being a prior order from the High Court?

Parenting is not easy and the people have to have a licence for a dog, a car and a TV. So does it not stand to reason they need a licence to have children...

Also children face no punishment these day's an ASBO is seen as some badge of honour, and they all break them anyway..

Should we bring back the stocks.... and should we bring back the cane in schools, even as a threat of a detterent it may do some good.
