In the past women, minorities and other groups were discriminated against. Today discrimination still occurs against those groups, but we do realize that discrimination against those groups is wrong and we have some laws protecting them. If we now understand that discriminating against those groups is wrong, then why do we still discriminate against those groups and other groups? Sholdn't we learn from the past and not discriminate? Is it just ignorance?

Why is it that models and actress are getting thinner and thinner?
Does anyone else see that this is becoming a problem with our young daughter?
And what can we do to have more real women in Advertisements and on TV shows?

hey I just read, that i'm no longer an atheist, seeing as though I once took part in a ceremony, when i was a baby, that I had no control over.
ie; baptism

I weep for this forum.

I love learning other languages and about the cultures behind them. I learned French when I was in High School and got hooked. I then took Latin in college and am currently trying to learn Italian and Japanese on my own for the fun of it.

But I refuse to learn Spanish. I am protesting this language because I live in California and everywhere they want you to learn Spanish. This is America the only language I should HAVE TO learn is English. I go to stores and need to ask someone a question and they look at me like they have no idea what I'm saying because they don't speak English. My friend had a similar experience at Walmart.

I think if you come to this country the least you can do is learn the language. When I went to Paris, people were nice to you if you at least tried to speak their language, but for those who didn't they were completely mean. And I can't blame them for that because they have pride in the language of their country. Why shouldn't Americans.

So, Am I racist

Has anyone here seen this film and what is your opinion of it? Did you find it funny or were you offended by it?

i am christian and not muslim but i love to think
i see 99% of the swusiders that explode them selves are muslims and as u know the life of a person is the most precious thing he has so u never will give ur life for nothing u can give money time or anything but not ur life
so my question is
dont u think that islam is the right religion as a muslim give his that easy
i know they kill and god doesnt want us to kill but may be there is something we cant understand we christians
dont tell me that the profit mohammed spread his words by war and that he said that when the judgment day will come the big war between muslims and jews will start and that even the trees will say to the muslims that there is a jew hiding beside it
i am taking about the current issue of people giving their lives to kill others

Before I explain, let me make the prediction that "Bob will live forever."

Have you ever heard of a contemporary external source? For example, all the prophecy nonsense. Just because it says it in one book in the beginning of the bible and it comes true in a later book of the bible, doesn't mean that it has been proven true. Why is there no secondary source proving that these things actually happened?

Bob will live forever! (Now that's proof.)

I believe that all people are equal. I don't see that one race is more superior than another. But....I wasn't around when they had separate drinking fountains and etc. I was wondering what reason people had back then for discriminating (and having separate drinking fountains and etc).

Let's suppose that they somehow walked on water, raised the dead, healed the sick, etc. Would you "know them by their works"? There are plenty of similar claims in other texts. How would you decide?

33 years of life. INteresting point that bible tells us all kind of stories but for the Most important person ( according to bible and Christianity) bible says nothing about his life. 33 years of unknown except few events here and there and few miracles.
Was Jesus life important before crucifiction?
There was gospel of TOmas ( infancy of Jesus) but in 4th century human bishops refused it to put in bible. Any wander why?

They're responsible for a lot of things! So, can't scapegoats be classified as decent responsible people?
