Society & Culture - 19 August 2006

I like people in general, but for the past 2 years, I've been frequently having dreams involving me getting into fights with other people. Then most of the time I'd wake up sweating. I can't control my dreams, and they happen the way they do. Does anyone else have smiliar dreams, and what do you think they mean?

Did you know that Galileo Galilei also known as the "father of modern astronomy", as the "father of modern physics", and as the "father of science" admitted he was wrong regarding a heliocentric universe a year before his death?"

I was on a plane from Manila to Hong Kong and there were three Arabs waiting to get on the plane. I think what freaked me out the most is that they were all sitting seperately. I ended up talking with one of them on the plane and he was, not surprisingly, a really nice guy. I know it was an unreasonable fear, but a fear I had nonetheless. Anyone else ever feel like this?

And not just spend all their free time doing spiritual things? I mean are we allowed to have any fun at all, or is time running too short?

We measure things by what we are.
To the maggots in the cheese, the cheese is the universe.
To the worms in the corpse, the corpse is the cosmos.
How then can we be so cocksure about our world?
Just because of our Religions, Spiritiulaist, and some stupid book?
certainly not!
there are more things in Heaven and on Earth than are not dreamt in any religion.
What do you know about the beyond?
Do you know what's behind the beyond?
I'm afraid that some of you hardly know what's beyond the behind..

If Jesus decided to come down to earth one last time before the apocalypse and meet the pope wearing his golden and ruby decorated outfit on his golden throne, what do you think he would tell him (or any other Christian spiritual leader leading a similar lifestyle of comfort) ???

And did I have to be enlightened on each level to get here?
Could I have existed as a cell, but didn't know it? Did I understand my role but not know the bigger picture? Was an awakening a prerequisite on each level?

As just one example, people will ask where I live. It’s a normal question but when I answer the general area then it seems they pick out a landmark and try to hone in even closer ie: is that over by XYZ? My cousin lives on... Is that by... Oh over by the lake? On and on. If I am at a social event meeting new people that I may or may not become friends with, how do I answer the question about where I live without letting them hone in too close? If you’ve ever had a stalker you know you don’t want to give out too much information on yourself to people. I don’t want to seem Abby Normal for not answering, but I don’t want to be pin-pointed either. I’m reluctant to lie because then if I do become friendly with these people it will come up and it’s just too weird to have initially lied about where I live. I don’t want to keep track of lies and I don’t want to give out information and I don’t want to seem odd. That’s a lot of don’t wants. Can you help me? Oh yeah, I drive a distinctive vehicle that I can’t hide in a garage so if I answer the general vicinity it’s enough to “out” me.

How would you go about warning the world?
Would you tell your friends?
Would your priorities change?
Well get ready, because come September 12th 2006 we will see
Nuclear war around the Euphrates River.
This is the message written in the Scriptures, so why are not the Churches warning the people?
You can read this for yourself, and share it with your friends and family. Be the one that tells them whats come and when, they will never forget this one.
Check it out.

As a jewess I have studied the New and Old Testament in the origianl hebrew. Atheists take scientific history to refute the creation story. They use bones and the like to say " see...Genesis isnt right "...as they definatly prove the earth isnt 6000 years old. BUT, did you know in the hebrew it says God was RECREATING the earth in Genesis ? The hebrew word says " God refurbished " the earth in Genesis as one would redo an old chair or furniture..BUT the earth was already in existance for millions of years. Isaiah says there was another race of people before us also. This explains why you find human bones that are much older than the genesis account. The book of Job in the hebrew records the existance of the dinosaurs we unearth in archeology. For example,in Florida there was discovered the well preserved body of a young girl that was about 2 million years old in a deep water hole.Do you see that since we read the hebrew scriptures in english we lose the real message of Gods word ?

If black people are going to call us white people crackers, then it should be perfectly fine to call them the n word.

If black people can rap about killing white people, then white people should be able to sing about killing them.

We see Jesus as a great prophet, wise, a true follower of God.
He said and teached great things to people, we muslims accept what he said. Still, we don't think he is the son of God, because God is to great.

We don't hate him. In fact I can remember seeing a Otoman drawing showing Jesus and Mohammed as friends, chating.

Why is it such a taboo for Christians to have sex, even when it is for procreation? Our reproductive system was (if you believe in god) given to us to use it. A person who chooses to stay a virgin is as pointless as a person who decides never to breath using their mouth…

Oh and for that matter, did Mary stay a virgin? I mean she did have a companion didn’t she? (OOHH!! What a blasphemy! I implied that Mary had sex…)
