For those who aren't familiar with stem cells, put simply they can form into nearly any type of cell or organ. So, a damaged spinal cord or failing liver could be repaired with stem cells (at least, we hope).

The main source of stem cells is developing fetus'. I can understand being anti abortion, but I don't understand why people wouldn't want to get something good out of it.

To me, being against stem cell research because of abortions is like being against organ donors because you don't like car accidents.

So honestly, (without judgements)...why would you be against it?

As Imam of a large Masjid(Mosque) of the Zaidiyyah sect of Islam, I get asked this question frequently.

The answer is simple. When directing your prayers to Mecca, even when praying to Allah(swt), say a small prayer of thanks to Vishnu(swt). When going on with your daily lives, give small words of thank to Vishnu, Buddha, Zeus, and all 99 gods.

For Allah means ALL the gods and we are all people of the books and children of the gods.

I have been reading The dirty Thirties by William H. Hull and it made me wonder why we dont live simpler. It is much cheaper and everyone seemed to be much more friendly. The way of living was cheaper, and people got up and worked for what they want. I think if we went back to how we did things int he past, peoplle wouldnt be so fat. Please let me know your thoughts on this, and how we could change, or what would be different. Just an open question on what you think.... thanks!

Ok I made a statement, asking whether or not white people smelled after it rained, if this was true or was it a bad racist joke. Reason why I made this comment was to see the responses I would get and they were very interesting. People said I should learn to write and while reading their responses their grammar was'nt worth writing home about either. Some found it funny, some were offended (understandable). But my what my point is, is that racist comments can lead a person to become racist. Because reading all those racist comments on here certainly did stir something up in me, and anyone that says it did'nt do a damn thing to them black, white or yellow, I don't know what to say. And to all the people that answered the question on whether it was the truth or a bad racist joke,thank you. The only white person I go around smelling is my man and he smell good!

Where is it really found. Can a person be happy by having a lot of money? Is happiness in raising children? Is it in career achievement? Is it in self-gratification? Is it in Religion? Or is it a combination of one or all of these?

about why people are so angry about the abortion issue? instead of arguing and debating, maybe we need to realize that they are often the victems of the abortion industry. pray for them and be compassionate above all else.
