OK no laughing please, just tell me what you think:

I live in a world
Of anger and hate
Where crying is normal
Where fear is accepted
Where nothing is calm

Yet there is beauty

In trees and in seas
In sunsets and dawn
In stars made of diamonds
Just look at it all!

But it can be lost

The bombs and the wars
The fighting and hurt
Twistied life, no beauty
In today's violent world
What horror is this?

But let there be hope

In gladness in life
Dance, rejoice for joy
In life's quiet pleasures
In oceans of beauty
Yes, hope is there still

But we must work hard
For it to come true.

OK yeah so just thoughts and opinions....OK it's laughable but I need some thoughts.

Stem Cell Research.

Are you for it or against it? What role does your religion, or lack of, play in your opinion?

Sadism and Masochism??
Okay, I am aware of the common theories pertaining to these odd traits, but I want to know a few people's personal opinions, as I am considering a personal theory at present. I just want YOUR personal opinion. Thank you.

First off, what exactly did he say? Is anyone else worried about this? I'm concerned that Al-Quieda (I know I spelled it wrong, I'm sorry) will interpret his statement as representation of how all Christians feel, when his statement was merely a quote from several centuries ago. Any discussion?

Serious answers please, I'm not trying to start a Y!A war on here.

More info: I believe in a God. I do not feel I have the ability as a mere human to know what to believe beyond this. There are so many religions all of which feel they are the one true one, but I don't see one specifically calling to me, and I'm not just going to be what my parents are or what is "popular" in my community just to please others. I want something that feels people do have the right to think for themselves and doesn't tell me how to feel about the modern world (e.g. stem cell research) when the teachings are from so long ago and may not apply to our world. I'm open to anything. Thank you to anyone who took the time to read my ramblings and respond :]

How many times have you called a customer service line to be put on hold for half an hour, then finally get through to someone across the world who knows little about your query, nevermind speaking the language? Does anyone have any good experiences with these customer services places or are they all bad news? Should we stop using companies that have international call centres?

Babymen- fully grown adult men who have bald shaved heads & wear the same clothes as toddlers, white trainers, 3/4 length trousers, sportswear tops...

They look like giant babies, are they a purely British phenomenon? do other countries have babymen?

Recently, I had a new neighbor move in next door to me. I'm not prejudiced or anything, but my new neighbor is a little person who's about 3 feet tall.

So, I saw him tending to his garden the other day, and I went out and introduced myself to welcome him to the neighborhood.

I wanted to make him feel comfortable so I asked him about himself. I asked him about his job and then I asked him if he was good at gardening because he was a Gnome -- (or a Gnome-American), and if it was a tradition that had been past down to him.

I think I may have offended him, so now I'm wondering why ... I'm not sure if he's ashamed of his heritage and doesn't like to talk about it. I'd like to ask him more questions, like about when they wear the red hats. Are you not supposed to ask little people about their ancestors (I'm pretty sure they're descended from gnomes). I don't know why they wouldn't want to talk about it -- I'm Irish-American and like to talk about Irish food and drink if asked.

If so, is it logical that GOD gives Contradiction in these religions.
There should be just one which is correct?? don't you see?


Thank you for your opinion.

With all the Middle Eastern violence and all the death, destruction, disease and hatred all over the world, why does God let it go on? Why does an Apocalypse have to be the answer?

The Sword Of Christ, By Ali Ataie
http://www.voiceforislam.com/SwordOfChrist.html

[Note from the Author: When reading this article, please keep in mind that as Muslims, we do NOT hold the following Bible verses regarding the beloved Prophet Jesus ( Isa-- peace be upong him) to be true. The points made, therefore, are only intended to expose the hypocrisy of the modern-day Christian Evangelical's claim that the Musim scripture advocates violence.]

It is quite common to hear in the West the notion that Islam "was spread by the sword." Did you know that the word "sword" does not even appear in the Qur'an? It does however, appear in the Bible, 434 times!

Islam or muslimism are those followers of a sick fat dirty old man and the facts still portray muslims as brutal ignorant followers of a pedophile (Mohamed). Do you know how many of the brides of Mohamed had, 27-29, and how many were under 12 years old? Thank God could he not have any children?

Hinduism as a religion is secular in nature. Look at the history of india with jainism, shaivism, buddhism etc existing in peace still recognising hinduism as the mainfold religion. The advent of islamic invaders and there was millions of deaths and conversions and destruction of temples and later christianity by the british, portugese and french. All those converts still recognise their castes in the hinduism mainfold. But the christians and muslims would always view others as infidels and hellbound and have destroyed a beautiful peaceful cuture of the India of old.

Did you know that before being elected the new pope, Joseph Ratzinger was the dean of the congregation for the doctrine of faith, linked to the roman inquisition both, historically and in its goal? You don't believe me?

It is public information, you can read it at wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Ratzinger
click on "congregation for the doctrine of faith" to learn about the dark past of this organization.

No wonder why he made such controversial statements. What do you think, both, about his background and his statements?

Though I do not think anyone has the right to kill anybody in the name of any religion, I consider that his statements were ill-intentioned.
