Why do black people think its cool to say the N word? I think its still has a negative connotation to it. I dont think it has been reversed as black people try to say it has. I mean white people dont go around sayin "what up Honky? What up Cracker?" It sounds dumb for one thing. For another thing its raciest just like the N word.

I think one of the biggest ones is that every day a new denomination in Christianity pops up claiming to be the "true" religion and starts denouncing all others as false or going on the wrong path to righteousness. I mean, it's okay if you have your beliefs (or if you don't have beliefs in some cases), but why go to such extremes as to bash another's just to promote your belief or lack of belief? I don't think that's very Christian-like or even morally right. And this is coming from an atheist. :-) What say you, fellow christians and non-christians?

Do you ever want to respond to a nasty question, begin answering it, and then change your mind and exit out of your response because you know it would not be Christ-like to respond in such a way and because you know that people are scrutinizing your words and actions as a Christian.

Ron Price, a Dallas school board member, has asked the City Council to look at strengthening the law to give citations to those who expose their underwear.

"I think it's disrespectful, it's dishonorable and it's disgusting," said Price, who made the recommendation last week to the City Council. "I have no problem with the top of your Hanes label being shown. My problem is when grown men walk about the city with pants below their buttocks."

I would like to hear your comments. Thanks.

Im in my 2nd year of college and i thought that their stupid comments would end after high school but i still hear some black girls generalizing that white girls have flat bodies. Well if its even true why do they care and have to brag about themselves. I know im not alone on this because i recently saw a ? on answers from a girl making a similar observation. and why would a white guy want to date a girl like that? why do white guys want to date black girls now anyway? i think that many of them have nasty attitudes.

I was in a conversation with someone recently and i said "stay away from those hoodrats." From my statement, the person that i was talking to suddenly accuses me of being ghetto or a wannabe black. My question is, Is it common for American youth, particularly this generation to use slangs such as "front", "wifey", "hoodrat" and "homie" ? I'm asking this because it seems as if *insert race* uses these slangs, they're automatically considered wannbe-blacks.

A little Christian humor for a change

Jesus and Satan were having an on-going argument about who was better on the computer. They had been going at it for days, and frankly, God was tired of hearing all the bickering.

Finally fed up, God said, "THAT'S IT! I have had enough. I am going to set up a test that will run for two hours, and from those results, I will judge who does the better job."

So Satan and Jesus sat down at the keyboards and typed away.

They mouse.

They faxed.

They e-mailed.

They e-mailed with attachments.

They downloaded.

They did spreadsheets!

They wrote reports.

They created labels and cards.

They created charts and graphs.

They did some genealogy reports.

They did every job known to man.

Jesus worked with heavenly efficiency and Satan was faster than hell.

Then, ten minutes before their time was up, lightning suddenly flashed across the sky, thunder rolled, rain poured, and, of course, the power went off.

Satan stared at his blank screen and screamed every curse word known in the underworld.

Jesus just sighed. Finally the electricity came back on, and each of them restarted their computers.

Satan started searching frantically, screaming:
"It's gone! It's all GONE! "I lost everything when the power went out!"

Meanwhile, Jesus quietly started printing out all of his files from the past two hours of work.
Satan observed this and became irate. "Wait!" he screamed. "That's not fair! He cheated! How come he has all his work and I don't have any?"

God just shrugged and said,

"JESUS SAVES."
