He is standing outside my townhouse right now washing it and talking about how disgusting my car is, etc. Washing it is the least of my worries right now...I'm taking it in to get the fender fixed next week.

This guy also washes his car compulsively and does it every other day sometimes everyday....I am pissed but I don't know what to say or do. Any advice is welcome.

In a profile I just read he states that he is a vegetarian and pro-life because he respects all life forms. I never thought of animal life and human life being equal. Do u?

I have 2 friends that are true vegetarians but both women are prochoice stating that it's the woman's body and she can do with it as she wants. (I say to them that they aren't killing their bodies, they are killing the baby's bodies) Anyways, that's a whole other issue. Back to animals. I adore animals. I personally think God put certain animals here for us to eat. There are animals whose meat is toxic and we would die if we ate them (some fish and amphibians). Plus God did not create animals in His image like He did man. If we aren't to eat animals then what is God's purpose for them? My friends don't eat eggs because they feel those eggs are to become chickens. Evolution-apes are vegetarians yet we know that cavemen ate animals. How did vege eating apes evolve into meat eating humans?

Dallas Texas is considering a law that fines people for sagging their pants.

Do you consider this a good law, or should they be focusing more on more important issues, than how people choose to present themself?

...if he could see how right wing nuts have hijacked Christianity in the name of bigotry, narrow-mindedness, and homophobia?

...if he could see how religion has been used to justify untold violence, hatred, war, and misery?

I think it would make him sick.

I see that in many schools how religious shirts depicting Jesus are banned yet you can see headbanger wearing shirts that have satanic stuff all over it. Should that be banned too since satanic images are religious too? Or should we keep the double standard?

Scientist paint a gloomy picture of the earth and man´s future.

They say carbon dioxide and other air pollution is collecting in the atmosphere like a thickening blanket, trapping the sun's heat and causing the planet to warm up.

But here is the good news. The Bible says:

"there will be a time of peace, prosperity and stability, when the earth will burgeon forth anew, the lion will lie down with the lamb, and the goat will give suck to the tiny bee."

I say the bible has got it right again. Surely this is the truth?

When I'm around people it seems like they get mad when I make a mistake or make me feel bad if I don't know something. Everyone makes mistakes and there is always something people don't know. So, what's the big deal? Please help!!!

It's just tiring when you hear people whine about this country about any subject. I hear people say, "I am a REAL American"...

No you're not. You're an immigrant, no matter who you are or what you are.

What do you think would/could happen if EACH of us would start to think and act towards "others" according to how we would like to be treated by others?

i will tell you wrong. it's part of faith that you should Fear God. As that's how God told Abraham.

read from ur Bible:

Genesis 22:12
And he said, Lay not thine hand upon the lad, neither do thou any thing unto him: for now I know that thou fearest God.....

what do you think? is love is enough ?

Is it because the want us to worship them instead of God?.

There is a more sinister twist to the subject. To give you a clue, it is to do with making big profit by selling us cheap goods and filthy products. Am I saying too much. No, but much too little, and for the sake of children I will leave it to your vivid and healthy imagination.

What do you believe?

It is my belief that homosexuality is not a preference but they way you are born. As such, it is ridiculous to hate or discriminate against them becuase they don't have the choice. However, my friends who have come back from deployments in the Middle East have commented on the rampant male on male sex there by the locals. This is a normal occurnece in the culture there. But the idea of man on man sex for a straight person is less than apealing. So, is it really a choice? Any and all answers welcome.
