Society & Culture - 2 August 2006

I have heard numerous accounts of complete discriptions of text that have been removed or tampered with from The Books of religion-Much like telling one man a rumor and watching it blow up into a whole differen condition-the account of Jesus Christ in The Bible lacks many episodes of someone I would allow to save me-A Text that does not fully describe the life of this man is not something you should allow yourself to be controlled by and I base that statement on this pure fact-WOULD A COURT OF LAW ALLOW A CASE TO PROCEDE if the the evidence were lacking and relevant evidence was withheld by either The Prosecution or The Defense-and in either case wouldn't it be the job of either side to ask for a mistrial and demand recourse-It Is therefore by the legality that I have invested in my considerable time in investgating this evidence that I personally ask that The Bible be dismissed as a representative case as an authority on GOD-YOU HAVE NO PROOF or relevant evidence to submit beyond this

I think it's a Greek myth. Some hero has to go and save some woman from Hades, but as he's going, he's told that he cannot look back at her. But he does, or something? Sorry for the vagueness.

*Blind* (Continuted)

Soon my life was over and gone
I went to Hell, and it wasn't what I thought
Tears, thirst, separation is what it only brought

I looked back on my wasted rotten life
Not understanding why I didn't see this mercy
I wished I could've gone back and forgiveness would be my plea

It was too late for me in that horrid place
But not too late for you, Mercy is knockning at you door
Accept it and let you heart be free and soar

My friend is in shock and in denial. She really believes homosexuality is a moral crime and cannot stop blaming herself.

Before you judge, here are other facts. She is a divorcee, but has kept good relations with ex. Both parents were involved in loving care, so no troubled household issues. Re: financial situation: Daughter is independent---my friend is also wealthy in her own right.

To complicate matters---my friend's daughter is thinking of moving in with her partner and they are planning to adopt a child. What really freaks out my friend is her daughter keeps referring to herself as "Jack" or "Husband" in her new household. Don't know if "Jack" is a usual term or her (daughter's) attempt at humor.

Nearly two-thirds of the world's HIV-positive people live in sub-Saharan Africa, although this region contains little more than 10% of the world's population.

When are blacks around the world going to start taking control of their African brothers and sisters rather than relying on whites like Bill Gates and Bono?

My stepfather's name is German. (I'm Irish/Greek). In my summer class today the topic of Tiffany's Jewelry store came up, and I mentioned that I have never had anything from that store.
Two Jewish girls (I only knew this after they told me) were whispering & looking at me, & after class said : but didn't you get a star necklace from TIffany's for your bar/bat(?) mitzvah?

They said it was because of my German name & dark hair, mostly.
One girl told me her mother had told her that I was "one", "for sure"!

( I don't know her mother at all and I'm new to this town ) and that I probably had rhinoplasty already???!!!

SO: is it just me, or do (some) Jewish people really enjoy finding out (almost "hunting") for other Jewish people
Also sometimes I feel they are intentionally putting these forward questions out there, just to see if they were right in guessing (almost like a game to them), and if so, I understand their insecurity but I can't help feeling it is rude. Am I wrong?

*Blind*

Blinded by the lies of Satan
Following the sinister king
Living a life of nothing

Driven to believe in myself
Hopeless and a lost sheep
Needing a wonderous love so deep

But still blinded from the truth
I went on living in this world I see
Believing that God sure can't be

Those who have hope to live on
I'd laugh and scoff at them
Thinking they're foolish, so I'd condenm

They warned me of a place ablaze
Saying that it was called Hell
They have many other fairy tales to tell

Of course, I didn't listen to their words
Pushing the thought away from my mind
That they might be right, and I was blind

Telling myself, "If only they were gone
I would throw a huge party in celebaration
Finally got rid of that Christian nation"

I lived my worthless life not believing
I'd loved to say to my fellow friends
"I will party in hell when life ends"

3Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

4Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.

5Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;

If your contribution to break the record for most answers to a yahoo question .....I will pay off the American National Debt. Nationally slash $2 off a gallon of gas. And give each answerer who contributed to the record breaking success a $500 each and I will go to congress to have your taxes eliminated for life.
What can be better than that?

If Jesus was on fire, would it be acceptable, having no other water source, to pee on him to put out the fire? Or should one simply roll him about in the dirt?

6,446,131,400 People on Earth
2,100,000,000 Christians

4,346,131,400 People damned to hell (plus any Christians who have doubts)

Not to mention the billions upon billions of people who have already died.

So your god makes all these billions of people knowing full well that the vast majority will spend eternity in anguish for not having a belief.

Watch your daily news casts and tell me you do not see Organized Religious Movements! They criticize anything and everything that is not related to a book that speaks about Monsters and Evil and Sin-trying to tell YOU how to avoid the consequences, and yet the reality is {that} this book is telling you how YOU will Burn if you do not conform to The Laws as they are written-Science has PROVED beyond a reasonable doubt that this world is not what was described in The BIBLE-so what recourse do they have but to MAKE you see it their way or suffer the consequences-It is my full intention to get ALL Religions balanced and regulated-AND TAXED-their free ride needs to end and their blasphemy to mankind and intelligent FREE Thinking exorcised-how is it blasphemy-YOU ARE TRYING TO TEACH SOMETHING YOU CAN NOT PROVE! YOU HAVE NO REAL ACCOUNT-Just opinion-Jesus Loves me yes I-know 4 the BIBLE TELLS ME SO? The BIBLE IS NOT THE LAW OF THIS LAND-I DECLARE MY INDEPENDENCE B4 Their Constitution says NO!
