Okay, here's my story...I bought this collector's edition double cd jazz box set. I brought it to may workplace as my co-worker Sam love to listen to some fine jazz as we go through our day. Well, Sam proceeds to say that the superfine jazz cd I brought was one of the best he has ever heard. When the cd finishes playing he asks me if he can borrow it and proceeds to hand me one of his older bottom-of-the-bag jazz cd to sort of trade of for a day or two. I agree to this kind of reluctantly as I still consider the jazz cd new. So, anyway he takes it with him. Now, he completly avoids me. He has not worked a shift with me since the infamous "let's trade cd's day." He even schemed with is cohort, Glenn, to work his shifts for him in order to facilitate his avoidance of me. Is this all a scheme to keep my jazz cd? Is Glenn his silent evil partner? Well, it's been close to a month now since I have seen Sam. Should I go into his bag and grab my cd when he returns this week?

for instance we love all of our family and friends but according to some mainstream religions unless a person follow the correct faith they are going to hell, surely god expects us to love our family etc,why would he save some believers giving them paridise on earth while unbelievers are condemed to eternal damanation,how does he expect us to live with the knowlege that people we love are suffering in hell

I went onto one of those online translatorss and asked a question on the Mexican Answers forum and all the answers came back "we do not understand what you are saying" so obviously the translators are rubbish. Are there any Spanish speakers out there who can tell me how to say the following:

"Why is there so much racism towards Black people in Mexico"?
"I travelled to Mexico 2 years ago. I am a black woman from England and I absolutely hated the experience as people were either always staring at me or pointing at me or saying that their hotel rooms were full when they were empty. Policemen kept asking to check my passport but not my white friends passports. I was even told at one stage by this Mexican guy that Mexicans would prefer a white rapist to a Black lawyer. but, when I went over the border to Guatemela I was treated very well.Even my white travel companions noticed how badly I was treated in Mexico"


How woud I say the above quoted paragraph in Spanish please?

With more and more economic interdependence, ever increasing technological abilities, and easy travel, the cultures of the world have been moving toward a world culture rather than retaining traditional cultures. I understand it is not happening everywhere to the same degree. But on the whole, do you think this is a good thing or a bad thing? Or neither?

100% of the Italian-Americans I know and have encountered where I live are extremely prejuidiced against Blacks & Hispanics. I have never encountered another ethnic group who has behaved in such a fashion. Does anyone know why specifically this is?

If the disaster deadly, is their God a "ministration of death"?

What about whatever ye loose on earth, is loosed in heaven?
Would this not make ye (do err) repsonsible for the disaster?

This is the holiest time of the calendar for Islam and I fail to understand why they would kill during such a peaceful time.Also does the quran teach forgiveness or just revenge??muslims seem to say whatever they want of others,but cause war if any one says any thing opposing them.where is the forgiveness in Al-Islam.This is not the Islam I came to learn and love.

I have found some horrible antichristian videos on the web. If you consider yourself a Christian I urge you to check these videos and stand up for your faith, this is a good chance. If you are pretty knowledgeable make a comment, if you can make a video make it, but do something. Here are the videos:

If you are an antichristian or don’t believe or understand these things, please refrain from answering and show some respect

Given the fact the universe is infinite & eternal, how can you fit Gods into that arrangement?

An eternal universe does not need and cannot accomodate a creator.
