Wouldn't it be nice to date someone intellectually stimulating? I don't seem to meet them anymore.

I get really disturb with how people keep on saying I will go to hell if i don't believe in jesus, i respect their religion why don't they atleast respect my religion, Why should i trust in jesus..god? I know most of you gonna said becuase he create the universe, don't you think that a bit to much if he create the univer i don't think he would have that much time to be around earth, or maybe he's a alien i don't know, or maybe you will say he was a real person or god sent down to earth became god whatever buddha was once a person too( I can't remember his name because I'm vietnamese so we have another name to call), and later on that a few more buddha have been sent down to earth to help people, should they get respect to, ( by the way the one that was most sent down to help people was the one owmen buddha atleast because i pray her the most...) when i read buddha teaaching it make feel very calm and relax not like other religion........like Christain there is like everything is sin

The Roman Catholic church said found Galileo guilty of blasphemy for saying the earth revolves around the sun, and not other way around. They have since recanted. Were they right or wrong to recant?

I need a black gay man to cut my hair.

My brother used to do it, but he can't now. Non black people don't understand black hair.

Does anyone know a gay black man in the queens /long Island area that can help???

My girlfriend was in the middle of doing her self a pedicure, she has nice feet, but they stink. Every stroke she'd do with the file would bring up this nasty aroma.
Well seeing that I do give manicures, she had asked me to do her fingernails, and before I started I asked her to wash her hands. That wasn't enough, I started in on her fingernails and it was as if I was letting loose the most raunchiest smell there ever was. As if she was digging somewhere where it would be easy to get "something" caught under the nail....
She is my dearest friend. But she has got some issues with stinking for some odd reason. How would you aproach a dear friend about their smell?

Exodus Chapter 21, verse 20:

If a man beats his male or female slave with a rod and the slave dies as a direct result, he must be punished, but he is not to be punished if the slave gets up after a day or two, since the slave is his property.

Not only does God condone slavery, but he is also completely comfortable with the concept of beating your slaves, as long as you don't kill them.

Numbers 31:14 - 18

Moses was angry with the officers of the army—the commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds—who returned from the battle

15 "Have you allowed all the women to live?" he asked them. 16 "They were the ones who followed Balaam's advice and were the means of turning the Israelites away from the LORD in what happened at Peor, so that a plague struck the LORD's people. 17 Now kill all the boys. And kill every woman who has slept with a man, 18 but save for yourselves every girl who has never slept with a man.

God and moses allow rape?

I may not be up on my biblical studies, but I've got a distinct recollection of Jesus saying something along those lines (Matthew 5:38-42), (Luke 6:28-31).
So you can understand my confusion, as to why I keep on coming across obviously, strongly religious people (and yes, I know it's not all of you), totally cursing out atheists, agnostics, and others... saying: You’re going to burn in hell, you won't need a coat where you’re going, FUC*!!!! You, ect.... and all manner of other hurtful comments.
And I know that people try to stir you up (I've done it myself a number of times actually). But I ask you: If you're so sure in your beliefs, why does this stuff even bother you? I mean, I know if I was sure that a god existed I wouldn't even bother responding to people trying to bait me.

Anyways let me know what you think

-Cheers

You know, pardon my boldness, but
I have liked you for such a long time
Yes, I know that you aren't single, but we can
Be discreet, at times we see each other
In contraband (illegally)

I promise that I will be discreet in front of people
I am able until I have to act indifferent
When they tell me of you, oh yes

I promise not to leave a single mark upon you
Not a bit of evidence that I was there
I promise not to be demanding, I promise to be
Patient

There are so many evils happening in this world that makes me wonder where this world is going. As a blessed American, we tend to live in bubble and not pay attention to what is really going on around the world.
There are so many evils going on in this world such as war, genocide, human trafficking, sex trafficking, slave labor, child labor, discrimination, crimes, violence, pornography, etc...
Maybe it is just me but I feel like the world is getting worse by day, not better. I used to believe that every human being has a conscience. Not anymore after I have seen what kinds of atrocities humankind has committed throughout the history, especially WWII.
I would like to hear u guys' insights. How do you view the world progressing into? What can we do to minimize the evils happening in this world?
