...don't you sometimes feel that EVERYBODY else is wrong, and you do have a point but nobody sees it?

Any examples?

Do you think almost everyone would be saved. Let's face it, everyone that God gives a second chance to live on earth again accept God as his/her savior.

Some of my friends have suggested I open my self up to dating non black men. I have always resisted because I don't encounter the type that I think would be into me. I am well educated, fit, financially healthy and employed. Non Black men (specifically those over 30): Would you consider seriously dating/marrying a Black woman? If so, what would you look for?

Have always thought of myself as non biased up until today ... I have always looked at other religious views and religion ( including athiest (mmm don't like it ... but you are a religion by definition ... you don't believe in anything therefore you believe in yourself or sience .... which mmm ain't a bad thing) ... but what I'm asking is do you tend to just assume that someone answering your question is from outside or inside your group of norms? I've seen it a lot here, and I've caught myself doing it ... I'm from the US, and have talked with people from all over the world because of this, forum ... and for once I don't feel alone ... but have found myself just thinking that someone was from my area just because of the way they talk ...truthfully ... I don't have a question anymore ... just answered it .... so answer away ... ---- Wally

When I hear Black Women make these statements, I realize that they are further away from getting a good decent man than any other women. Black Men who date White Women are most often more educated, and is of a higher class than the ones who date Black Women, that’s why they treat women better, not because she’s a White girl. More educated, higher class Black Men will treat all women with respect, because that’s what kind of guy he is. And not so educated and lower class Black Men will treat any women bad, White trash women as well, because that’s what kind of guy he is. These are plainly two different kinds of Men, it’s just more common that the nice, decent, educated and higher class Black Men prefer White, Asian or other cultures of women, and the not so decent, not so nice Black guys prefer Black Women who they can relate with. Nice guys are just nice and bad guys are just bad, no matter what kind of women they have or what culture they are.

I used to live in a house that we sold to a Mexican family. We didn't get nearly as much for it as we could have but we needed the money at the time. Last week this Mexican family was having a barbeque--my family wasn't invited but we hopped the fence and joined in anyway. We ate their food, enjoyed their sodas, and relaxed in their house. And they had the gaul to ask us to leave. They said that we had no right to be there. I explained that my family was hungry and they had it better than my family does so why couldn't we stay there? He said because I wasn't invited and it was HIS home and HIS food. I think he was being racist for demanding that we leave and I think we should have been able to stay for as long as we wanted. I even called some family members and they hopped his back fence and joined in on the fun and he asked them to leave also. I told him that I used to live there, but he said, "Who cares?" Who is right here? Man those Mexicans can be so racist and unfair.

NO-and it is time for you to admit that you are following a KING and that The US was created in escaping and fought for the right to be free of Monarchial RULE-AS a Christian practicing in The US you are being a TRAITOR to the principals of THE Bill of Rights-Yes you are allowed to worship in you Freedom of Religion-however YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO BRING YOUR beliefs into the Laws of The People- You are using your Bible to try to manipulate the way that this country is being run-Heretics all of you who sit back and watch THE US go into Iraq and knowingly enforce a christian manifest among the people that follow Islam-YOU ARE DENYING THEM THEIR FREEDOM OF RELIGION! They are not going to convert-unless GOD ALMIGHTY HIMSELF STEPS IN-and so you believe that your actions will somehow tempt YOUR GOD to Take action by appearing in The Middle East and SAVING THESE PEOPLE? JeZus Christ is a KING-we fought to separate from Tyrannies that envolked Serfdom-SLAVERY-and that is what you have vowed 2!

Job 40:15-24 “Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox. Lo, now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly. He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together. His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron. He is the chief of the ways of God: he that made him can make his sword to approach unto him. Surely the mountains bring him forth food, where all the beasts of the field play. He lieth under the shady trees, in the covert of the reed, and the fens. The shady trees cover him with their shadow; the willows of the brook compass him about. Behold, he drinketh up a river, and hasteth not: he trusteth that he can draw up Jordan into his mouth. He taketh it with his eyes: his nose pierceth through snares.”

We all do selfish things from time to time, but we do not give ourselves nearly enough credit for the good things we do! This is time to pat yourself on the back and feel good about yourself. extra pts if your story involves a stranger!!!! Wahoo!

If you are tempted to give a sarcastic or mean answer: please just don't. Have the courtesy to move on to a question you like better.

My 3 things I want to feel proud of tonight:
1) lived and worked in a remote village trying to assist poor shepherds to improve their life
2) gave return bus fare to a Mohawk girl I met on a bus; she was trying to get her newborn out of an abusive home in NYC back to her parents in Canada
3) helped a middle age woman start her first career, for 1.5 years we studied at my kitchen table so she could become a licensed technician

As an African American Man who has socialized in different cultural and professional environments, it is very annoying when I hear African American Men say that Black Women are gold diggers. Usually, the Black guys who make these ignorant statements probably and most often socialize with poor Black Women who are trying to assimilate the behavior of privileged American White Women, because more fortunate Black Women are not so greedy. The false concept of independence that most Black Women have won’t allow them to be gold diggers, and they will more often take care of a lazy Black Man rather than the other way around. But as a successful African American Man who has dated professional White, Americanized Asian and Latin women, I do know that these classes of women do not come cheap. I’m not speaking about White trash, I’m only speaking about professional White American and Americanized Women of other cultures; European women are not as materialistic. Most American White women are taught from an early age to date men from a perspective of dollars and cents. This doesn’t mean that they don’t have emotions, it just means that they expect you to have a very strong financial background and be able to maintain it, if not better, or don’t even look in their direction. So when I hear Black Men say that Black Women are gold diggers, I realize that they have only dealt with poor, ghetto Black Women and have never dated or socialized with Professional American White women. That could be why when many White guys lose their job, they go crazy because they have high standards to live up to for their wife and family, and the wife usually don’t want to hear excuses.

For instance Isaiah 54:17 says:

"No weapon formed against you shall prosper, And every tongue which rises against you in judgment You shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, And their righteousness is from Me,” Says the LORD.

Could I replace "you" with "me" when reading them, or would that be inappropriate? Thanks
