Society & Culture - 2 October 2006

It is from my knowledge that the British people are descendants of Anglo-Saxon (German, Dutch) and the Nordics (Swedish, Norwegian) who travelled across the seas and settled in Britain between 600 A.D. and 1000 A.D.

But my question is that if the Brits' ancestors were basically settlers from those parts of mainland Europe, then what about the people who actually lived in the British Isles before the migrants arrived? Did these people exist, or do they still exist today? What is their cultural identity?

I used to have this really pretty ruby red rosary with a golden cross. It was my 1st bithday present. I always felt that God was protecting me with his mark while I had it on. But, infoutanetely this girl broke it on purpose and said that "heathens like don't deserve to wear this" I was so furious. My mom tried to fix it but it fell apart again.

What is 'love' to you, just a chemical reaction? Or is it something deeper than that?

If there is a middle road, its the undeclared agnostic. The person who manifests no belief, but retains some silly religious identity "Im a catholic...Im Luthern".

However, someone who simply declares "I am agnostic, I do not now know whether God does, or does not exist. I have not seen sufficient proof either way" does not occupy a middle ground. In fact, it may be the only honest ground.

I respect atheists, although I find many of them to be emotionally scarred by religion, more than committed to a certain idealogy. I personally think God probably doesnt exist. However, I am sure that, if he does, he is emotionally secure enough to cope with, and understand, my position.

Isn't that the same as accepting that the earth's surface may be curved (because you can see the horizon), but rejecting the notion that our planet may in fact be spherical?

The nine Satanic Staements
1. Satan represents indulgence instead of abstinence!

2. Satan represents vital existence instead of spiritual pipe dreams!

3. Satan represents undefiled wisdom instead of hypocritical self-deceit!

4. Satan represents kindness to those who deserve it instead of love wasted on ingrates!

5. Satan represents vengeance instead of turning the other cheek!

6. Satan represents responsibility to the responsible instead of concern for psychic vampires!

7. Satan represents man as just another animal, sometimes better, more often worse than those that walk on all-fours, who, because of his “divine spiritual and intellectual development,” has become the most vicious animal of all!

8. Satan represents all of the so-called sins, as they all lead to physical, mental, or emotional gratification!



9. Satan has been the best friend the Church has ever had, as He has kept it in business all these years!

I heard that if you're in another country, the sign language for nonverbal people is quite different, is that true? I am just trying to learn a sign language. And if it is... why? I can't understand it, so please bare with me. I am not being rude here.
