For those of you who speak languages other than english, what do you think of it? Is it a pretty language or does it sound ugly to you?

Yesterday I asked if it was OK for students to wear "Straight Pride" T-shirts to school.

Dannii n Sac responded: "No that is pretty much the same as someone walking into school with a KKK outfit."

What is it with the sheer intolerance and bigotry displayed by so many gays and their advocates?

If they're not threatening their debate opponents with choking and acid facials, if they're not hurling racist slurs at opponents who (like me) happen not to be white, they're comparing straight people to the Klan.

I thought you folks were the big champions of respect and tolerance. But I guess many of you just want to receive those things, but don't want to give them.

Today there was a blood drive and a close friend of mine was not able to donate because he's gay. I notice they only ask about Gay men they don't ask if you're a lesbian. They say it's a AIDS risk, but isn't it true that not all Gay men have AIDS? So, how it is that women & men that are straight but yet they have many sex partners are a risk for AIDS but are able to donate blood? Please no hateful or rude comments or you will be reported...

Today the new Peace Symbol we see is the CND peace symbol. 100 years ago the orginal symbol was a V, today it looks like an upside down V glued to a pitchfork. Also it looks like and upside down broken cross. Is this a sign of false peace as toldin the Revelation?

If sin entered mankind about 6000 years ago, and the cure for the disease was introduce only about 2000 years ago, then God waited around for 4000 years withholding the cure. Why did God sit on the cure for 2/3rds of biblical history? How many people were born and died without the cure in that amount of time. Even after the cure came, he only spread it by word of mouth for most of that 2000 year period. There are still people living today who have not been offered the cure. If God is all good and perfect. why the inefficiency and procrastination? Is he inefficient by design? Is that what they mean by intelligent design?

Then I challenge you to read a new book out called Misquoting Jesus. It'll open your narrow eyes quick. Then you might grow a brain and your own opinion.

How Many Headlines


How many headlines have you made?
How many times have you turned up the spade?
How many children have gone in the ground?
When, oh when, will the peace be found?

How many marks can you write down for death?
How many souls have taken their last breath?
How many people have heard their last sound?
When, oh when, will the peace be found?

How many days are swallowed in war
How many times have you asked, "what for?"
How many ways can you now turn around?
When, oh when, will the peace be found?

If you say "whatever my heart tells me" then you have declared yourself God.

If you say whatever the majority of society says, then what Hiter did was right.

If you say the Bible, then you must believe it 100% for it to be valid, as if you don't it no longer becomes absolute but pick and choose, which is the same as "going with your heart".

If you say there is no absolute truth, you have made an absolute statement and contradicted yourself.

first, i am not trying to put you down, please understand that. i am a christian with family members that are mormons, i am trying to open my mind and understand the book of mormons.

my question:
is the book of mormons an addition to the bible?

if so, why is this ok?
in the book of revelations it states a warning that no one should add to the bible.

again, i am trying to understand......thanks!!

Note: if under the age of 21, you can't answer this, because you aren't old enough to drink (technically).

So Mel Gibson (I enjoyed most of his movies) spouts off a bunch of garbage, and claims he didn't mean it.

I have been drunk many times, and if you are like me, you say stuff and do stuff that you might not otherwise.

BUT, have you ever said, or done, anything that was totally out of character? Maybe burned a cross, or did what Gibson did and spout ethnic slurs?

I don't believe that being drunk causes you to do stuff that totally goes outside the definition of who you are.

In reality, I think it brings the truth out, more than fiction.

A limited human who can easily be lead astray, be convinced of lies, suffer emotional or psychological problems, be raised by nutty families, get the wrong impression, become rebelious and childish, be taught incorrectly, have faulty intuition, be awed at trees and the flowers, have unjustified self-love or self-hate, or just plain doesn't have access to all the right information...

Huh?

It has been pretty firmly established that, when telling a joke about gender differences, it is much more PC to make males the brunt as opposed to females. This isn't always the case, but it tends to be.

My question is this: Why is it that so many men tell jokes that berate men? I used to go to a church where the pastor (a guy) would almost every week make some joke at the expense of males. They usually weren't "mean" jokes, but they were still pretty unflattering. Also, if you go to your local bookstore and browse through the humor section, you are likely to find some books that make jokes out of the way men do things that are written by men.

I am not exactly offended by this, but it does kind of make me wonder because you don't very often see women joking like this about women. I don't, anyway. So what is everyone's thoughts on this?
N.B. Not to play "Boss," but could we have mature answers only, please? Thanks.
