His toilet's septic tank was broken, so I would've had an embarrasing moment. The sink was there and in good working condition. In my defence, the afformentioned diarrhea had a close resemblance to hot and sour soup, so it flew down the sink's plughole with natural ease.

Do you have one account you use for real answers and then another you use for answers you wouldn't want anyone to know you actually wrote?

If not, why not? It's so liberating!

Do you feel that some femenist groups have taken the chivalry out of men? I agree with what some of them say, but a lot are seeking special treatment and rights. I think because of some overboard femenist groups, some men might not feel inclined to hold the door for you or be a gentlemen. Personally I could care less about a guy holding the door, but some of my straight friends do take it to heart. What do you think?

How do leaders within your community treat people who are like you? How do they treat people who are different?
Do your texts or work manuals contain information by or about people like you?
Do the local media represent people like you? If so, in what ways?
What are some similarities and differences between you and the people who are in leadership positions in the community? Do you feel minority group interests are represented within you community?
If you could resolve inequities within your community, what would you change? How and why?

I recently just moved from a one bedroom apt. to another one bed apartment? I hired a moving company. Thisis the first time I did this. I was not aware of the tipping policy. Honestly, it would have never crossed my mind that you even tipped movers. To make a long story short, I was not please with their service. They were mad that it was raining and I did not reschedule my move. ( I rent, I had to be out by a certain date!) The one younger kid told me "mam, remember that we do accept tips, especially since we are going to get soak and wet out there" I was strapped to begin with, paying them $90 per hour. I hired movers cuz it is so hard to find reliable friends and family members and I hate to inconvenience people and ruin their weekend by moving. Anyway, the same kid who solicited for tips also asked me for food twice. Jesus, was i supposed to feed them also??? I am moving for god sakes, I do not have a fridge full of food. If my friends and family were helping, I would have bought

He only brings toys to rich kids. What's with that? It's all well and good if you've got a TV commercial life - but what about the kids who have to watch all that crap for two months knowing that there'll be nothing for them X-mas day but more of the same old same old?

There are many sources that prove that the belief of reincarnation in Christianity has been hush-hushed over the years and some passages of the bible referencing it were even removed by church officials. I found many websites and articles on this but this was the most well laid out that I found: http://www.atmajyoti.org/sw_xtian_believe_reinc.asp

I was thinking about it and just imagine how much better and non-judgmental Christians would be nowadays if they still believed in reincarnation. There would be no, "Repent or burn in hell!" or “Go to Jesus before it’s too late!!!”

This could actually change the world. I’m serious. The fact that reincarnation has been covered up in the bible is not a secret any longer. But next to no one knows about it.

If reincarnation returned as a Christian belief, Christianity would still exist but it would be so, so much more tolerant. It’d be a lot closer to the religion that it SHOULD be rather than what is nowadays.

I'm sure some of you work lots of hours each week in the office and feel a little under appreciated.. like I do right now. lol..

It's times like this that I want to just drop my office job, travel the world and bartend where ever I go (if money was no object) or even just bartend full time - but that would just be a waste of my overpriced education wouldn't it?

Remember who it was that told us that Islam was hijacked? Stupid weak white non-muslim leftist anchormen..yes (Rather, etc)? It certainly wasnt any major Muslim leaders...there werent any religious decrees (fatwas) declare rage over this horrible "hijacking".

You know what facinates me about the media, which shapes public opinion and mainstream perception of the world...what amazes me is how they can make outright claims (as opposed to qualified remarks) about something they know nothing...i mean literally nothing about.

Ive had the benefit of interacting with muslims during these insane remarks by dumb white leftists. Often, Muslims cant help laughing when leftist make totally ignorant characterizations of their religion.

Unlike 99% of all leftists, I did my homework about Islam. I had the same assumptions as most, but found the horrifying opposite to be true. Bin Laden was right when he said the perception that this was only a war with al qaeda was a "very narrow view"

Mine didn't come in one big fell swoop, but rather over a period of time. I realized that "FOR ME" God does not judge, and I have nothing to ask forgivness for. That understanding has changed my life.

I'd love to hear what ''understandings" people have had about life that changed them in a profound way.

Thanks !

Rework:

Most of the verses quoted can be interpreted as:
A reminder that Jesus is Judge.
AND
One must not judge Jesus.
BUT
not neccessarily that I must accept Jesus.

Correct?

For the past few days, I've been getting quite a few strange messages. The messages invariably begin with a couple of bursts of harsh static. Then there will be a voice (often British-sounding) saying "Hello? Hellooo? HELLLOO?" and sometimes saying my name, sometimes not. It's the most bizarre thing, and I've yet to be lucky enough to be home when they call. Anyone have a possible explanation or have a simliar experience?
