The things you do.
The things you say.
The random acts of kindness.
The thoughts you have.
The dreams you have.
The friends you have.
The life you live.
The way YOU choose to love God.

Hi, I am an attractive guy of African descent, and I sometimes get noticed by nice looking white women while walking…while in the train... Even when they walk or are seated alongside their white husbands, b/f, ...they seem to stare and smile at me even more... Then their guy friend abruptly becomes offensive and tries to physically “win” her attention back. I’ve literally been intentionally “block” by a complete stranger a few times just because a white girl was staring at me in the train. I respect all relationships, but we all love to flirt once in a while. I am not boasting myself ladies because I think this happens to many nice looking brothas. Seriously, why do white men go through such physical break-downs just to hide their ladies from taking a peak at us. . Is it really worth it?? I’m not looking for any burning comments of rage and fiery here, just anything civilized and intelligent. Thnx!

Most of the people who don't want gay marriage to become legal are Christians who believe that homosexuality is a sin. But didn't God give us the free will to sin if we wanted to? Isnt the whole point that you're supposed to choose not to sin, and not be forced into it? In that case, why do Christians not want gay people to have rights? God gave them free will, and they "chose" to be gay, so shouldn't you let them?

Please note that I am not suggesting that all chruches begin preforming weddings for gay people. I am only concerned about gay marriage in the legal sense.

Also, I don't really think being gay is a choice, I just said so for the sake of arguement.

What would you do if EVERY day you were given $1,000,000,000.00.
1.Let's say that the billion was after taxes so it was yours to spend any way that you choose. 2. You could NOT make the choice to not get the billion every day and it would come to you for the rest of your life and it would not matter if you decided to not get out of bed. It would come to you.
So what would you do with 365 billion(after tax) dollars every year?

I'm afraid of schizophrenics, because I don't know what they will do. So I stereotype people on the bus or street constantly, looking out for homeless people -- who tend to have a high incidence of schizophrenia. I'll increase my distance between myself and a homeless person. If I see someone talking to themselves, I'll move away, or at least prepare myself to dodge a crazed knife in my ribs.

This seems exactly like bigotry to me, but isn't insanity a good case of something we Should fear, and, as it were, discriminate against?

There are two, one right after the other, and they contradict. The first one is the "let the be light" story, where God creates everything and then creates man - saying "be fertile and multiply" with no specifics on how many there are and nothing stating that they are in paradise, just that they exsist. The second is the Adam & Eve story about Eden and forbidden fruit, everything else is created after them to name.

I have the utmost respect for people who can switch from language to language without any problem. Once, I was on a tour in Spain, and the tour guide gave the tour in 4 different languages due to the group we were with....English, Spanish, French, and German. Pretty cool!

My DH speaks Mandarin fluently mostly with his family, but he speaks English perfectly too, and you'd never know he wasn't born in the U.S.

I was reading an article about Andrew Yound who was hired at Wal Mart to boost image for the store. Heres a bit of background info... hes a black man, was a former UN ambassador, and civil rights leader I believe. He made the comment when asked what he thought about Wal Mart running mom and pop stores out of towns... and I quote...."Well, I think they should... I think they've ripped off our communities enough. First it was Jews, then it was Koreans and now it's Arabs; very few black people own these stores."
What do you think about his remarks? They are going crazy on the AOL message boards about this! Some are saying it's ok for him to have made this remark because he is Black... I say it is wrong even if he was purple.Heres the link to the story...

You are driving along in your car on a wild, stormy night. You pass by
a bus stop, and you see three people waiting for the bus:

1. An old lady who looks as if she is about to die.
2. An old friend who once saved your life.
3. The perfect man (or) woman you have been dreaming about.

Which one would you choose to offer a ride to, knowing that there could only be one passenger in your car.

Why are all gays going to hell? People call it an abomination, per the bible. The bible also says people should not eat shellfish, wear mixed fiber clothing, etc. Why aren't these people also an abomination.

Serious Responses Please. I want to understand.

about why europeans hate the USA...just a question why do you think we're jealous? You are the people where most of the population is overweight and most of the rest killed by shotguns which you the "nation under god" think have a right to posess and use...one of the 10 commandments "you shall not kill" so no we're not jealous of you people thinking you're so great and going to heaven thinking you're doing gods will by killing and taking revenge...we are also not jealous because you are more powerfull or so you think...any intelligent people out there know what the states would be without europe?I've lived in the USA and europe and believe me there is hardly any difference in the standard of life...so still any questions why some europeans(me not being one of them even though the things I wrote might get ppl thinking I am)hate the USA?

At the supermarket checkout they looked at the product and could not decide. The manager was called and he did not know as well. He took a photo of the product and emailed it to head office. They came back with the answer and gave it to him. He passed it on to the checkout operater. Now she knew they were bananas
