what besides the struggle for Power, Contol and Authority is this war on terror? the only thing afraid is the people on the recieving side of media being scared into mass anxiety and hysteria thanks to our media being used as a propaganda tool. How can you fight a war against an emotion or an idea? does it become a war against humanity if we try and fight off a natural emotion by removing those that politicaly and religiously oppose us, even our own citizens? Aren't we free to worship in the US as we wish so long as it's lawful? Has laws been changed to not protect all religions now? How can this war on terror be used against certain faiths? wouldn't some call it a 'spiritual war'? Can we combat this with love and intelligence, or wise decisions or by simply standing by and seeing more 'shock and awe' used to decimate a nation that did not threaten or attack the US?

Read this article in today's NYT about brain centers affected by stroke, schizophrenia or implanted sensors. Doesn't it point up the fact that most, if not all, of the bible is based on mental health challenges to the people involved?

http://www.nytimes.com/2006/10/03/health/psychology/03shad.html?ei=5087%0A&em=&en=9c59d730d2bab312&ex=1160107200&pagewanted=all

Here's an excerpt:

They are eerie sensations, more common than one might think: A man describes feeling a shadowy figure standing behind him, then turning around to find no one there. A woman feels herself leaving her body and floating in space, looking down on her corporeal self.

Such experiences are often attributed by those who have them to paranormal forces.

But according to recent work by neuroscientists, they can be induced by delivering mild electric current to specific spots in the brain. In one woman, for example, a zap to a brain region called the angular gyrus resulted in a sensation that she was hanging

Would you feel compelled to take away their faith before they die? I mean if you believe God is a lie and we are better off with the truth wouldn't you still feel compelled to enlighten them?

I know i am gonna get slatted here, but here goes..
1. Why is it that you all, no matter what colour or creed you have to sit with your legs open?
Yes i know you have your bits down there, but surely to goodness they are all not LARGE????
I have known of guys that literally take up two seats.

2.Why when in front of the television, you sit with your hands down the front of your trousers?
I have asked my hubby and he says it's comfortable. I have spoken to other friends and colleagues and they say their men do the same thing too!!!
Are you guys afraid it's gonna drop of? or is it somehing that stems from childhood?
Serious replies only please, I am intrigued.

A bloke says that his mate is attracted to his partners 9 year old daughter and none of you realise that he has typed the question because it is either a) how he gets his jollies or b) a teenager showing off to his halfwit mates.

WAKE UP!!!!

There's this cute girl that's new to our school, I think she's from Mexico. I've tried talking to her a few times, but she just shrugs her shoulders and smiles. She gave me a note yesterday, but I don't know what it says. Here's what's written:

Eres un gringo bello y quiero conocerte mejor. Tu ojos azul y pelo rubio me encanta. ?Me quieres?

So, can anyone tell me what this means?

Last year an Orange County man was sentanced to death for killing his six children That woman that drowned her five children so that sho could be with her new boyfriend got her conviction overturned because she was "depressed". Yesterday and woman who blind folded, stabbed, and posed her son as revenge against her husband was sentanced to 26 years.

Inland Empire school districts are being suied fo hiring a male teacher who admitted to getting a thrill out of having young students sit on his lap while at the same time womens groups lobbie to have sentances reduced for female teachers who have SEXULA INTERCOURSE with their male students.

Right here on yahoo I found a 26 yr old woman who was upset by the disapproval she found from people over her 2 yr relationship with a boy who had just turned 18. The majority of women told her that she shouldn't care what others thought.

Why aren't more women outraged by this kind of stuff? I thought women wanted to equality.

Many people blame Muslims for most of the terrorism in the world and the Pope's recent remarks about Islam. I believe jihadists are radical Islamic fundamentalists who distort the Koran.
