Society & Culture - 3 October 2006

i was just wonderign because you don't see that very often,it's usually the other way around like black men dating white girls and nobody says anything about that, but as soon as you see a black girl with a white men then people got something to say especially black men themselves... talking about ''you think you're too good to date a black men and you a traitor'' i just don't get why black men can date white girls but black women can't date a white men...it's not fair.

I'm curious. During the 70's and 80's it was quite a regular sight to see young men- always young, white American men- and always in pairs. They would be VERY conservatively dressed, with "clean cut" haircuts. They used to go from door to door, seeking to convert people to Mormonism. I belive they termed it "missionary work".

What happened, do these Mormon missionaries still come to the UK? ...I remember once that one of them told me they believed Jesus of Nazareth had visited South America, which was stretching my credulity a bit.

Today I received a violation from Yahoo and my question was deleted. In the details to the question I commented that gay bashers were idiots. Now I realize that gay bashers are upright and very sensitive so I do not fault them for reporting me. But I do wonder whether is should have been violation. Also--I am not calling them idiots here--I just repeat the word so I can ask this question.

Yahoo told me it was a violation because I was making derogatory remarks about participants. I will admit I should not have used the word "idiot". It would have been better to use a more politically correct term--something like "seriously misguided."

But it seems dispropotional to me. I see somethings said about gays, different races and different nationalites that seems hugely inappropriate to me. But I guess the targets of these remarks are not as sensitive as those who are deeply offended by gay folks.

I dunno. I will probably be violated for this question.

He moved here about 10 years ago and we met at a restaurant that we both work at. He is an extremely talented chef and I want to respect where he comes from and I find it interesting to learn about his culture. We have known each other about 8 months but only recently started seeing one another. I wanted to get him a small gift that representes his culture- something that I may not know about or understand. If I could incorporate what he does for a living into it that would be good to- he has soooo much passion for cooking. ANY ideas would be greatly appreciated!

I just don't want us all to forget the real names for things.

Here are some definitions for our politically correct words:

Abortion: Murder ; sin

Homosexuality: Sexual deviance;sodomy;aberrant;sin

Welfare: Laziness; sin (again I realize in some situations it is needed but if you are living breathing male that can move than yes Laziness)

A (god) that is ok with all of these things: A term used to sometimes justify sins; idol worship;Not the one tru God; sin

Islam:idol worship; sin

Buddhism: idol worship; sin

Materialism: idol worship; sin

I mean it seems like we have forgotten the name for things sometimes.Just wanted to make sure their wasn't anyone misled by political correctness.

The good thing is all of this can be forgiven by God's grace. Which is Jesus Christ. None of us are any better than the man next to us. But the man next to u may be saved by grace.

I furthered the discussion with my last question about "why did God give us free will?" and most of the guys that attacked me remained silent.

Those who spoke, said nothing important... a few made some important points and hence my last question-

YOU SAY that GOD gave us freewill because without freewill, there is no fun... no repentance, no crime, no forgiveness and hence no life. God wanted us to have a roller-coaster life with pain and happiness... experience it all.

My question is- Is rape, mental trauma, war, killing of innocents and murder all part of this experience? Did God want to be this way?

If you say Yes... then, enjoy your sins! God wants you to commit sins! Go ahead!! Kill that kid!

If you say No... then, why doesn't your God stop all this? Is he shackled by his own rules? He is omnipotent, right? If He doesn't want it to happen, why is he watching the baby getting raped and people getting murdered? Is a sociopath, psycho killer's freewill THAT important?

Just ask Saul... the non Jesus believer, who became Paul the Jesus believer.
Saul at that time was to become God's instrument to save Christianity. And Jesus name Saul Paul.
Non- believers God may use you to do his will, there's hope.
What do you think, God does care about you, and God wants to use you for his purpose, sincerely do you think someday you may turn around???
