I'm trying to improve my German by reading German poetry by Goethe, only problem is I can't find them in German, I can only find English translations. Does anybody know where I can find them, preferably online?

I am your FRIEND,...and ALWAYS will be your friend. I accept YOU for who you are!!!

I place no limits on my friendship, neither color of skin or religious preferences!!

This is a message from me to all those that would read this. If you will do this, in truth from your heart, things will change!! It may take time, and I for one will not see these changes take affect due to my earthly age. BUT change is possible if only one out of ten where to take this statement to heart.

I am your FRIEND ( I see the sacred being withing the human shell) and ALWAYS will be your friend ( the sacredness of one is accepted by all other sacredness). I accept YOU ( as another sacred being) for who you are!!!

PLEASE see past the human shell that we judge so much, and see that which is the true person.

Peace Be With Each and Every Individual...Is my heart felt most sincere wish and hope.

When one is at peace with self, one can become at peace with ones surroundings.

Be at PEACE and all will be at PEACE !

I mean I'm East Indian and I'm rarely attracted to East Indian guys. I like (instead) white guys, black guys, latinos. But then again I dont look like the typical Indian girl (practically hairless, no dark eye circles, no frizzy hair).. I've been asked if I'm latina or mixed before even though I'm like a lighter Tyra Banks color. Its just that all my Indian friends love Indian guys and they think all my tastes suck. What do you think?

The Buffalo Bills play the Miami Dolphins in their next game (big rivalry)


If I pray to Jesus to let the Bills win, and my friend prays for the Dolphins to win... what happens?

Do they cancel out?
Does it matter who prays harder? Like an arm(en)-wrestling match?

Oh, and do you think that if I pray to Mary as well, that she'd help me cover the spread?

I'm sick of HUGE, FAT people telling me that "cars" are too small for them, so they "need" to drive an SUV. That is the number one excuse I get when I ask someone why they drive such a terrible vehicle for the envirenment.

A new study shows that higher incidences of CANCER correlate heavily with high incidences of CARBON MONOXIDE. L.A. and the BAY Area, have the highest per 1000 people, so it's not just because there are more people, it's because there is more Carbon Monoxide fumes being spewn into the air.

So what is your excuse for driving an SUV?

"Our educational system has been affected by 150 years of secular thought and has raised thousands of people who hold Ph.D.s. Changing this system is not easy, and we have to do it together."
--- MAHMOUD AHMADINEJAD, President of IRAN, apologizing to students for allowing leiberal secular professors to remain in their posts at Iranian universities!

Still think that forcing prayer and you views on people in PUBLIC schools is a good thing?

Then you might be a Facist :)

I have asked just a few questions, and I have come to see that the christian faith shelters so much hate against Allah(God), muslims, and their prophet. Why? The Qur'an tells it's followers to respect all people of the scriptures Jews and Christians and NOT to insult their beliefs and NOT to destroy their religious objects and NOT to insult their prophets. Yet when someone asks a question about Christianity they immediately bash the faith of Islam, even if it was NOT brought up in the question. We are all human. and those of us alive don't know the truth, but we all have faith. There are no religions out there that were sent down by God, that say KILL MAN!! and HATE HIM for what he believs, so we all need to learn how to live together in peace. We need to learn how to just worry about ME and am - I -doing what my faith wants me to do. If everyone who answers with sarcaism would keep their opinion to their self please. And answer from the heart!

If a Muslim man wants to marry a Muslim woman but the man's parents don't want him to marry her (she didn't do anything wrong, they just don't want him to marry her for whatever reasons or preconceived notions they have about her). Can he still marry her (Islamically)?
*Please only Muslims or those who have knowledge of Islam. Thank you.

I recognize that some Israelis have darker skin tones but I've never met an American Jewish person that didn't have quite fair skin. Am I wrong?

SPIRITUALITY! These courses have helped me immensely the past 3 years! I'm interested in discussing miracles. I know now that what a person THINKS is what they create, & what you focus on you create MORE of (also, what you RESIST persists!) God gives you what you ask for(be it negative or positive). It's HARD, but now I know NOT to JUDGE! Also I now wish only the best for everyone-we are all individual units of God, full of God's light! We must all become aware of how MAGNIFICENT each & everyone of us is!

No rude answers. If you have something rude to say, keep it to yourself. I want to know what people think nappy means.
