Society & Culture - 29 August 2006

Ok recently I have been looking at different things on the internet pertaining to the war and such, things like conspiracy theory on 9/11 and some of my friends stopped by tonight and talked to my husband and I about these things going on as well as the beheading of Nick Berg which by the way they made me watch, I kept closing my eyes but saw the beheading taking place....now I am totally freaking out, crying, scared of life and whats going on with our world. I like to sometimes forget what is taking place in Iraq because it allows me some peace not to know all the negative....Please give me some POSITIVE feedback on how to cope with this!

This section has become like a battleground. There seems to be almost no-one here is not aggressively atheist or aggressively pushing their religion onto others. Let's just call it a day, shall we? And agree to disagree.

I get roughly 4 -5 hours sleep a night and often less on weekends. This wasn't really because I can't sleep but due to work and seeing friends. However I've noticed even when I do try and go to sleep earlier I cant, and I also wake up at least twice during my 5 hours even if its only for a minute or 2. Is that normal?

suppose a generator as a first living being on earth .. then producing electricity is living and surviving according to this assumption ..
it must have the ability to produce electricity .. cylinders , shafts , oil and water .. and some gasoline . enough to make it able for searching its food ( gasoline in this situation ) .. all of these togather must be there ..
and do not forget it must have the ability of reproduce itself .. otherwise it dies ( stop running ) .. that requires DNA chain in living beings .. and for generator you can name it a catalogue or a design explaines what parts is there .. its dimentions .. etc ..
what do you think ?.. is it ordinary these happens all togather ..?

Of course most will tell you that they respect their wives, daughters and sisters and therefore must protect them. What I see are women who are cowered and fearful of the communities in which they live, do not partcipate and in some strange way consider themselves superior to women of the west.

like i have stated in my previouse questions which most have been deleted i have had four abortions and just got my fifth one today because i didnt want to ruin my new tattoos on my stomach from pregnancy. i dont understand what the big deal is. god says if i ask for forgivness i go to heaven and i have and i think god everynight that i have the right to abort babies and the right to my wonderful tattoos. you should have seen the kind of things that christians were calling me. i guess i just proved that you guys dont practice what you preach. and arent all sins equal to eachother in gods eyes? so me getting five abortions to save my tattoos is no different to the things you guys said in my other question in gods eyes. so i guess i will see you guys in hell.

I was reading earlier and I starting wondering... why the rib? why not a shinbone, or a hip?

My only guess is that you can live a normal life if you are missing only one rib whereas just about every other bone in the body would have a serious effect on you if you lost it... does that make sense?

Also, are there any archetypical/paganistic symbols or meanings associated with the rib? I can't think of any... but if anything had significance, wouldn't a rib?

just curious.

The name sounds like "Rah-booke" but I can't figure out the spelling.

Does anyone know how to spell it, and of what ethnic origin it is?

I am getting very frustrated with people and their matrialistic ways. Life is not about designer labels and expensive sports cars.

I don't have a lot of money at this point in my life. My parents made some pretty stupid financial decisions as I was growing up. I have no one to help me out financially when things get tough. On top of that, I have student loans to pay off. As a result, I won't be living "high on the hog" for quite some time. In the mean time, is it really fair that I should be shunned and ignored because I can't afford all th "finer" things in life? Should I be the one paying for my parents mistakes?

I know, I know, LIFE isn't fair. Well it doesn't make it right.

Am I the only one who feels this way?
