Ok in United States we call cigarettes - cigarettes.
But in England they call them fags.
Fags in the US are homosexuals.

In the US we call that thing at the end of an extension cord a plug. In France it's called a tampon. Females use tampons in the US when they are on their period.

What are some other funny ones you have? Please only true translations please.

Here's a test. Why is your God better then someone elses God? RULE : You can't use the bible as evidence, because other religions can use their text as evidence just the same. So it doesn't carry any REASONALBLE weight.

I want to be convinced using a reasoned argument. Not because the Bible says this or the Bible says that. I can quote the Qur'an or the Vedas et al. that suport eaches religion.

C'mon people nows your chance. Convince me! But don't use the bible!

Keeping in mind that the bible never lies, for it has God's words within. Why would people want us to learn about the bible? It has all the answers, we don't want to be like God. The first thing God wrote is, don't believe anything I say, because I can lie, and you can't judge me, because I am perfect. I am perfect because I say I am. The bible is all about...it is because I said so. It creates desperate people trying to live a better life. That better life, a life of perfection. "Human perfection" is in reality trying be God. So then is Heaven real, or are we living in hell. Is death good or bad? Who wants us to live, God...or Satan. He offers us things in this world which are meaningless. Rich, Fame, Love, Peace....they don't exist. Nothing exists in this world, and when you are six feet under then forgotten...you will have proven me right. I looked for the answers, and I found God. But the God I found was not the God I was looking for. I found God was staring at Satan in the face.

Is there any book that should be banned in the U.S. for whatever reason? Here is a list of books banned in the US and their reasons : http://title.forbiddenlibrary.com/

my question is. How is any book bannable in a free society? Can't we question anything? Can't we look at anything we want if we are adults. If pornography is acceptable by some people then how can it be made illegal because some others oppose it? Freedom of expression must also be freedom to offend. No?

How do you know good and evil? What is paper made from? How is a sinner made? What is innocence? Isn't it ironic that the brightest angel, would be the darkest? Isn't it true, that faith comes in when you must believe that God and Satan aren't the same? Is that the true test of the "bible"?

I'm not saying all Christians are bad, but it seems to me that the ones who mostly qualify to be called "the Christian Right" are really just cold, heartless, rude, wrong, and hateful. They seem to act the opposite of Jesus.

Maybe I just have met the wrong "right" Christians.
