Society & Culture - 21 September 2006

Someone told me this the other day and it got me thinking: Is a pedofile "doing the best he can"? Is a terrorist "doing the best he can"? Is a homicidal mother who kills her children "doing the best she can"? I do not think truth is relative. In my mind, people who resort to harming others are not doing their best, they are succumbing to their most base desires. What do you think?

I can't imagine many non-religious people supporting him. And I thought most religious, even conservative, people like myself had become disappointed with the direction of his administration. So what gives?

When I was in 5th grade, I was in love with Elton John. Later on, I thought Freddie Mercury was really cute. Which would have been fine if I'd been a boy!

1. Should public schools be required to set aside time during the school day to allow for religious observances by its various religious groups?

2. Do you think that tax support for private denominational schools should be extended beyond Catholics in this province to other groups such as Hindus, Protestants, Muslims and Hebrews?

3. Is there a place in a multicultural, multi-racial, multi-denominational country like Canada for seperate "religious" schools? Would you support a government which made such a schools system a reality?

Any other thoughts? I really just wanted to get a variety of opinions.

I was just at the mall and I noticed all of the babies and little children being pushed around in strollers. Christians believe that all are born with original sin. Correct? But what sins have a 9 month old baby commited? Assuming that the baby were to die in a car accident before getting baptised(I am just saying. Please don't take this as some nut case wishing death on innocent children. I'm just saying) does that mean that child will go to hell? That does not sound "just" to me at all.

The caste system is no longer legal in India and yet Brahmin Hindu men continue to act as if they are superior to all other human beings, especially people of Dalit and non-Indian heritage. What is their problem? Were they dropped on their heads at birth? I just don't understand it.

Are you a hunter???

Are you a vegetarian???

If you follow Christianity, and you are a hunter, are you not going againt "Thou Shalt Not Kill?"

And don't pick and choose. If it says you aren't to kill, then I feel it should be applied across the board.


When answering, please state your religion.

My late great-grandma used to say this to me when i was little. Everytime me and my brother would go outside to play she would always say this. I didn't understand what that meant when I was little but now I understand it.I used to have very fair skin when I was younger and I turned darker when i was 9. It broke my heart how my grandma used to make remarks about my changing complexion. My skin is reddish-brown. Another thing was my hair. I was born with wavy hair that was very long and down my back. And this girl had cut off my hair and told me that "I was whitewashed" Now my hair is to my shoulders and I'm going nautral.Have any other blacks, natvie americans, latinos, or Asians dealt with this kind of intra-racsim?

There are at least 800,000 species of insects and most cannot live underwater. Collecting 1.6 million insects must have taken a long time, considering that many have a lifespan of only a few days. How was this accomplished?

To all you deceived God worshiping Christians.
Hear this warning from your own Bible, Satan is the God of this world and has deceived you!
Rev.12:9 & 2 Cor.4:4.
The great apostle warned you that Satan would do this.
Yet you won't believe him.
Instead you believe the lying preacher that tells you otherwise.
Check out the web site, learn who God really is.

so alledgedly we are all born with "original sin" which means that we have to live without sin or at least repend them as well as believing in the lord. this way we will get in to heaven. i dont beleive in god or heaven/hell but say i am wrong and they exist... i cure cancer and end world hunger and go to hell but a serial killer on death row finds god and goes to heaven. thats not right it is it?

It's true. A truck load of them stopped in front of my house, got out of their truck and started picking apples off my tree (little bitty apples that are useless). What would you have done?

It's not their religion, so they have no say. Personally I think he should be promoted LOL !!

Seriously tho I was baptized a Catholic and can't stand the religion, but Muslims are worse. At least the Catholic religion doesn't demand everyone not Catholic be killed, which is what the Muslim religion does (that is what I've been taught).
