Society & Culture - 13 June 2006

I have been reading so many post and was wondering what is happening to our ability to use proper english. Reading all the miss-spellings was like listening to a band out of key.

And these are probably the same people I turn down as employees simply because i cannot have their lack of skills and intelligence representing me and my company. I am sorry, but no way.

The decline in ability during the last 4 decades has been incredible and I wonder just what happened. I do not attribute it to computers and spell checkers either. I think it goes much deeper than that.

There were no conundrae,
there are no clams
simply a chasm of roast beef
reeking pillow shams.

People say that there is evidence of biblical places and events. Well the battlefields of Troy have been found as well. Does that suggest that the Iliad and Odyssey are in-fact true?

Since that "God" guy requires you to have faith to get to heaven if you meet him you would have knowledge of his existence.

You cant have knowledge and faith since knowledge and faith are mutually exclusive.

Therefore, if you ever meet that "God" guy you would automatically loose faith and go to Hell.

Or is my logic flawed?

I talked to this guy. He was 23 and a virgin. I am 23 and a virgin to but I thought it was weird that he was. He was attractive and had a major that would bring him alot of money and I am sure the girls loved that. When we met I thought her was a little fem and he was African American and the only music he really liked was tecno. I also though this was weird. We talked for a month and things were going great but he stopped calling all of a sudden. Also, he had never been in a relationship that lasted over a month. What are signs that a guy is struggling with homosexuality?

Everything in this world is in a constant communication buzz with everything else. Being fluent in as many languages as possible would seem to be an extremely valuable gift asset to have.

What about you? Who or what are you presently able to communicate with? Who or what would you *like* to be able to communicate with? (All languages - verbal.. animal.. symbolic.. - are game).

with the growing epidemic of meth, I was just wondering if anybody has experienced a drug problem among family members? How has meth affected you personally? My aunt has almost ripped our family in half with her drug habit. Just wondering if anyone else is in the same boat?

Please only tell me your own experience not examples from the Bible or from people you know. First hand experience ONLY!

Tell me what you prayed and then what happened (and how long it took if you know--though that's not that important.)

For the record, i have friends of all races. whether as close friends or people i just met and know are cool. Am I racist for telling a racist joke. I tell a joke about black people to my black friends, they laugh. I tell a mexican joke to my mexican friends, they laugh. Asains, and even my tidey whiteys. Once i told this racial joke to my friend however, and an eavsdropper (of the particular race in the joke) got all pissy about it, saying im racist. that's hate speech. that i should watch my mouth. my friend i was telling it too (who was also of the same race) thought it was pretty funny. i don't care what you people personally think of me, so just give it to me as truthfully as you want. i'm curious about the hypersensitivity of racial jokes. is it real? is it rightfully there?
