In the Sentinel interview, Young (Wal-Mart's Families PR representative at the time) was asked about whether he was concerned Wal-Mart causes smaller, mom-and-pop stores to close:

"Well, I think they should; they ran the 'mom and pop' stores out of my neighborhood," the paper quoted Young as saying. "But you see, those are the people who have been overcharging us, selling us stale bread and bad meat and wilted vegetables. And they sold out and moved to Florida. 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."

In the Bible it states that people lived for up to 900 years old. My question is if this is true, how did they look, I mean I take it they had wrinkles, how about daily activities like walking, cooking, cleaning etc...

I keep seeing over and over again literally 100's of times by now About how Religon caused the Crusades, and other bloodshed. But the Truth is Men created these atrocities. They Used religion as a means to their own ends. These powerful rulers (kings etc) Used their authority to make people believe that their word was from God. Yet the Bible which is taught in the constuct of religion teaches piece, and Loving thy neighbor. SO isnt the fault on those Rulers and not religion? Heres an example. Today we fight a War against Islamic folks that believe that it is the Will of Allah That the infidel (U.S. Britian and the west) should be killed, beheaded, and blown away. Yet we get from the Mainstream Muslims that this is not true teaching of the Koran.. So if you believe that the Crusades were caused by the Christian religon then also are not the problems of today caused by the Muslim Religion? or is it the acts of some using those Prespective religions to attain their own goals?

Remember movies like Menace To Society, and Boyz In Tha Hood? I am sure you remember movies like that. Movies that always portrayed black men and women in a negative light. They were always shooting one another or the women were sleeping around. But now movies like that have faded away. We now have movies and shows that show our successful black men with white women. Or our beautiful black women with white men. Do you think that the media plays a big role in the way that black ppl treat one another and even in relationships? For instance in the movie Monster's Ball (Black men would you have liked to see Halle Berry have sex with someone other than a white man) or black women when ever turn on the television and they show a white woman kissing a black man, does that raise a hair on your head? why do you feel there are not as much positive interactions between black men and women. And why do you think they continually show movies and shows like this? And why do we constantly watch them?

To me these traditions have largely contributed to poverty in africa and they are associated with witchcraft.
Dont you think leaders should discourage their communities from being enslaved by them as they are used to please/satisfy the elderly.

Sometime in the future, but not at anytime soon, do you think Canada will merge with the U.S. Some things considered is that at one time during the 19th century, a group of influential & elite American politicians had pondered about the U.S. invading Canada to take over it, but at the time the U.S. was involved with U.S.-Mexican War. Canada and the U.S. are close neighbors and trade partners with each other, sharing a similar culture with each other. Politics of both countries greatly affect one another, but not as much as does U.S. politics affects Canada. The U.S., from its NORAD command center, monitors U.S. & Canadian skies from any missiles attacks; nevertheless, both countries has with each other of policy-level consultation on bilateral defence matters through the Permanent Joint Board on Defense. The U.S. is the fourth largest country in the world for total area size, while having a population of about 330 million. Canada is 2nd for total area, with a pop. of about 30 million.

I have some family and friends who are like that, and they're so "wholesome", healthy, intelligent, friendly, energetic, positive -- you name it -- and at peace with themselves. They told me that they believe only in themselves, and they're very accomplished people. It seems to me that they're blessed and loved by God because they're doing so well in everything and have a wonderful life. And yet they have no religious inclination at all. How do you explain it?

Possible explanations:

A. There is really no God, and only the "losers" (pardon me, you know I don't mean that -- and I'm one of them anyway ^_^ ) and people who need something would want to believe in God.

B. They're actually blessed and favored by God without knowing even though they don't believe in God. But isn't that strange? If they don't believe in God, how is it possible that they seem to be filled with God-like qualities (e.g. the "wholesome-ness")?

C. ???

What do you think?

(Please, no rude comments!)

Why is that? Is it because all the birds died from the smog pollution or is because the people ate them? Does anyone have the correct answer?
