OK guys and girls, let's hear what you think about this:

Can a man EVER wear a plain white vest, providing he has the right physique, or does he just look like he's trying to pull off a Die Hard-era Bruce Willis look? I'm talking not absolutely skin tight by the way! thanks!

Could it have been a punishment for sin?
Could 9/11 have been that as well?

I keep hearing confllicting reports that we're supposed to stop smoking, be less stressed, eat healthier foods, exercise more and try to find solutions to solve racial and religeous conflicts.

On the other hand, I'm hearing reports that the planet is over-crowded, there's not enough food to support the population, natural oil is running out and there aren't enough jobs to go around.

So, do we want a peaceful, healthy, overcrowded planet or a decandent, religiously and racially disharmonious planet where there's enough food, resources, money, jobs and space for everyone.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't these mutually exclusive goals?

How many people who took part in the group hysteria that passed for the funeral of Princess Diana now cringe at their behaviour?

I was just wondering if the best way to forge ahead with medical advancement would to to test/ experiement on live human samples as opposed to worrying about medical 'ethics'. Whilst I know this is morally wrong I was watching a program about Mengele last night and I was wondering if the same approach might work these days, if the scientists were particularly detached and took on a 'it's for the good of all mankind' attitude.

Would this be the best way for the advancement of medical science, disregarding ethics?

Thanks!

that some of the same atrocities that happen in a Western society ALSO happens in a Muslim society.
Why, when these atrocities are pointed out, the people pointing them out are considered racists?

Is the definition of honesty different in Western society versus Muslim society?

Please give adult, HONEST and well thought out answers. -- Thank you.

The reality is that, most parents who abuse their children were also abused as children. its not so easy as learning from our parents mistakes because our emotional psyche does not work that efficiently and children aren't equipped to think that way.

And without the full force of the rack and pinion to opinioate the believer in whom all trust was put? Yellow cake destroyed the inoperative imperative and He blew down the oppression with a sidekick of new initiatives on liberal hedonism. Why? Without cinderblock radiation dripping from every pore, who could He have become?

Okay, yesterday I was on the school bus with my friends coming home, And me and my friend were talking and someone in the back of the bus was throwning some paper, pebbles, and pens at me and I heard some gigling. I told them to stop and they keep on doing and then I started to cuss and swear at them but I didn't know who did it. They keep on doing it and I got up and got off the bus and some threw a bottle at me and I ran back to the bus and stood in front of it and I told the bus driver that I'm going to stand here until I find the motherf****** who was throwing stuff at me. So I stood in front of the bus for at least 30-45 mins and some of the kids had to pee but I didn't care. The police came and they were questioning us, but no one got arrested. I had to do that because they keep bothering me and those kids are alkways try to push me around because I'm a nice person. But being nice is getting me no where, I have to be feitsy and bitchy to get what I want.

40% of the population have HIV/AIDS, and if nothing is done to help, the entire population will be dead by 2040.

Many children live on the streets and perform sexual favours for money or drugs.

Many young girls have a 'sugar daddy' that pays for school in return for sexual favours.

Average life expectancy is just 28.

Please can we do something to help this country?!
