Like, oh, they rule USA, or, they are cheap, yada,yada...
I am not a Jew, but I have nothing but respect for the way they make their children study and become somebody in life, or how they teach them not to fu** up every penny they get at their birthday parties like all other kids do. So, they are all Doctors, lawyers,film directors... Nobody is stopping the rest of us from raising our children to sit at home and study while other kids are playing hoops on the streets. I also feel bad for them for what they have been through troughout history. I would like if there are any Jews out there to share a negative exprerience that they had because of their religion.Do things like that happen in USA on regular basis?

I'd like some suggestions of symbols to carve a green candle with for a money drawing ritual. Also... I am only in supply of 3 oils for annointing at the moment. Which would be best: olive, lavender, cinnamon?
If you write your intentions and wishes on paper, is that only for banishing spells or would that work for drawing too? Writing intentions then burning them in the flame of the carved, annointed, green candle......
Lastly, what is the proper way to anoint a candle...?

I've noticed a disturbing trend. Almost NO ONE waits anymore when they see someone backing out of a parking space.

I can't even begin to count the times in the last 6-12 months, that I was backing up and had other cars nearly shave off my car's behind as they continued driving past. And it's not because I'm slow or back up poorly. I do it quickly & efficiently. :) Still, it seems like only 1 in 10 have the COMMON COURTESY to wait just the few extra SECONDS it takes for me to finish. :( The majority go right by, almost causing a collision!

I don't believe that ALL these folks simply didn't see me backing up. I think the majority see, but don't give a damn. They're so entrenched in the "me-me-me" and "go-go-go!" mindset that they can't stand to wait even a MOMENT. Manners obviously don't matter either.

BTW, I'm not the only one this happens to. Several family members & friends experience it too. Anyone else experienced it? And can anyone EXPLAIN it? :( It's so disheartening!

Should their also be a minimum requirement as to how much of the English language they can speak? Because if we travel to a Middle Eastern country and don't abide by their beleifs, you'd damn near be jailed or executed!

After all, they are "fossil fuels" - the remains of fossilized organic material (you know, dinosaurs?) trapped by sediment and geologic phenomena. A process which took millions of years.

One of the biggest arguments against the literal interpretation of the bible is that it does not agree with science. That is baloney.

1) How could humanity come from just two people? Wouldnt incest be involved.?

Answer: Yes incest was involved with Adams children. And there was nothing wrong with it. THe only reason we dont do incest now is because there are too many flaws in our genes. Two people with the same genes create a genetic flaw in a child which leads to disease and retardation. If God made Adam and Eve perfect..with perfect genes, there children would have them. Two related individuals with flawless genes can have nothing but healthy children.

2) The bible says that people long time ago lived 100's of years? Thats dumb right?

Answer: Back to the genes. Science do not know why we get old, wrinkles, gray hair. Theyve spent billions trying to find out. If we had flawless genes, our body wouldnt deteriate at the rate it does now. Which explains Adam and Eves ages.

It seems that the most incompetent elements of society are reproducing at the fastest rate. There is no longer a "survival of the fittest or smartest" factor for survival in our world/country. You can be the fattest, dumbest, laziest person on the planet and still shoot out kids left and right and know that they will be taken care of.by the government. Am I a ranting maniac, or just honest enough to say what no one else is willing to say?

My brother's in business.
I'm in Baltimore on business.

Note: They use different prepositions for the word 'business'.
Why is that?

In my heaven, there would be no such thing as hell.

If I go to this "heaven" and there also happens to exist a hell, I couldn't cope being there knowing that those so deemed unworthy suffer a horrible fate in hell.

Mind control from our God perhaps? Then why go to heaven if I can't be me? Perhaps the concept of hell is wrong?
