Or Hispanics, or Asians? Am just curious. I know that there are towns of only Native Americans, but those are mostly on reservations. I do mean only. Running their city government and every facet of town life.

We invented the USA and their language. They repay us by electing Bush.

I know that inventing Canada was a bad idea but what about the USA?

There not bringing themselves closer to God as Jesus spoke about that place he even made a story about it There was a rich man named Dives and a poor leper named Lazarus . Dives lived in a mansion and feasted sumptuously every day Lazarus sat outside at the gate of the rich man's house hoping someone might throw him some scraps from the rich man's table that never happened. In fact, dogs used to come and lick Lazarus' sores. One day they both died Lazarus went striaght to Heaven after, Dives died He went straight to hell. When he looked and saw Lazarus in Heaven having a good time, he wished he would just dip his finger in some water and let ta few drops fall upon his parched and burning tongue. But it could never be. He asked Abraham if he might go back and warn his brothers, because they were heading for the same place Abraham told him it would do no good. Jesus also told about the fate of the selfish at the Last Judgement.

There are huge amounts of basically unused and empty land in this world, small towns and villages. What draws folks to crowd together in cramped cities full of crime and dirt, then complain that the whole world is overcrowded? Do they really feel that there are no other options open to them? That being 'where the jobs are' is the only way that they can survive and have a happy, fulfilling life?

Ok, so is there Exotic Massage Parlours in the U.S, and if so, the "services" they provide such as "finishing off the client", aren't they supposed to be illegal, to me it's almost like prostitution of some sort

Thanks to everyone that answered my Japanese Manners post. I now have one instead of two students but things have gotten worse. This student now thinks it's ok to treat my parents as if they are his servants. We told him that we will drop him off and pick him up before and after work, unless there is a school activity. On Friday he lied to my parents saying that the teacher was having a party. He was really hanging out with his friends. He tried it again. He expects us to feed him meat at every meal. If we don't he complains. We made it clear to him that no smoking was allowed in the house, but his room constantly has a strange smell. I want to report him to the office that I have a contract with about this but I don't know how I'm going to say it. Another thing is that he treats my mom and I like crap but is ok with my dad and brother. Is there any truth that in Japan women are considered lower than men? This guy is in his 20s. Any advice would be appreciated

It's easy to be self-righteous as a Christian in a Judeo-Christian society. I'd like to hear from Muslims about your worst post 9/11 experience. I'd also like to know if you think stereotypes have lessened since 9/11?

A gay friend of mine lost his partner in a road accident - how long do you think it is acceptable for a same sex couple to mourn the loss of one of them? In my family if a woman lost her spouse she is expected to mourn for 4 years, for a male relative it's 1 year and 1 day. What do you think is sociably acceptable?

I think it would be cool to kill them all and freeze their sprem. Catalog the sprem. You know by height, race, attractiveness, behavior while living, criminal history and so forth. Then we could live in a society with only women. Take their money and property and divided it amongst the women in their lives who they have loved and/or hurt. When we wanted a baby, we'd have artificial insemination and we could raise a generation of men who know how to treat women with respect, honor, faithfulness and caring concern.

What do you think of that idea? Do you think women could run the world better and raise boy to be the men we want? Or would we just end up missing men and killing eachother.
