Police officers are tasing citizens for small reasons. Here is a video clip of a woman being tasered for nothing more than a traffic stop.

A lot of people quote "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." but this is impossible to keep unless the words find room in your heart.

I'm don't know if this has already been asked, but here is the link:

http://articles.news.aol.com/news/_a/has-noahs-ark-been-found/20060629173309990001?ncid=NWS00010000000001

And here is a portion of that article to entice you to read it:
Texas archaeologists believe they may have located the remains of Noah's Ark in Iran's Elburz mountain range.
I can't imagine what it could be if it is not the Ark," said Arch Bonnema of the Bible Archaeology Search and Exploration (B.A.S.E) Institute, a Christian archeology organization dedicated to looking for biblical artifacts.
Bonnema and the other B.A.S.E. Institute members hiked for seven hours in the mountains northwest of Tehran, climbing 13,000 feet before making the apparent discovery.
"We got up to this object, nestled in the side of a hill," said Robert Cornuke, a member of the B.A.S.E. Institute. "We found something that has my heart skipping a beat."
At first, they didn't dare to hope it was the biblical boat.
"It wasn't impressive at first," Cornuke said. "Certainly didn't think it to be Noah's Ark. But when we got close, we were amazed. It looked similar to wood."
In addition, some B.A.SE. members say, their discovery didn't look very distinctive.
"It looked like the deck of any boat today," Bonnema said.

I'm surprised they allow kids(16 and up) that they know will be rowdy , disrespectful, and gangster. They also allow some people who stink up the bus so much. Recnelty there was one of these guys and the bus man saw him as he was waiting in the bus stop, and didn't pick him up^_^ But still generally they do. I've even seen one guy who brought a beer in and was drinking and another time.. abunch of highschool students went to the back and were drinking while one of them stood in front to cover them. But it was OBVIOUS. manythings are OBVIOUS and the bus driver doesn't do anyting? why?

This question is mainly open to Roman Catholics but I'll accept answers from other branches of catholism as well. What's the single most important, valuable, interesting and / or touching thing you've ever learned or heard during a priest's sermon besides the greatest message of all which is that God loves you? Do you usually gain any life changing, inspirational or heart warming insight from the sermon?

I've been a Roman Catholic my whole life and I haven't visited too many churches besides the one I always go to and I'm wondering if its only my church (as far as Roman Catholic churches are concerned) that goes out of its way to deliver really thought provoking and heart warming sermons.

If you can, quotes from key points of the sermon would be desireable.

Some people assert that a bible's ten commandments provide the foundation of contemporary Western law. If this is so, then where is the prohibition of marijuana/cannabis specifically written?
And compare: A koran does specifically prohibit the use of alcohol, but does not condemn marijuana/cannabis.

This morning I saw a man working on a live electrical box (one that is connected and has electricity). He was obviously a well educated electrician, and he was just doing his job.

I saw another man walking up to him, bothering the electrician with all sorts of questions and warnings. The electrician was obviously so distracted from his work, that a dangerous situation could occur.

Should i tell the man to stop bothering electricians? The electricians are obviously educated well enough to think and act for themselves, right?

It is my personal belief that if the next generation of humans grows up without knowledge of what racism is and how people have mistreated other cultures in the past, it would be something completely useless and non-existing...we would all be equal..or...
is discrimination something that we are simply born with?

Just to name one, the book Misquoteing Jesus talks about all the different wording in the New Testement, many of which change meaning. This is not the work of Satan this is someone who has researched copies of the New Testement that have been made over the last 2000 years and there are differences.

If these differences are the work of Satan, then how do I know the Bible that got sent to me in the mail last week also isn't from Satan?

Theres different interpretations of scripture, including the Jesus, within Christianity. How can one trust anything other than their own heart and intellect, which has led me to differnet interpretation of John 3:16 then you?
