so in china you are only allowed to have one cild per couple. i know that there are ways to have more, like if you live on a farm and need labor, but wouldn't you think that the population would be getting cut in half instead of growing larger. two people have one kid and the population goes up. whats with this?

In my last question for you I didn't know about Pascal or his scale..it was just a thought came to my mind..now here it is different..You say you don't believe in God "any god not a specific religion" because there is no proof or you don't see any evidence..think with me in these thoughts:
1.Science is our way to dicover the universe which is God's creation..but theway to discover the creatures is sure different from discovering the creator.
2.We still know very little about this world and even the human body..each new discovery opens thousands of new fields of research..science is still a baby.
3.Evolution doesn't disprove creation..they can co-exist and it is highly possible that God is the one who designed evolution.
4.Don't you see it hard that this huge universe with this accurate design came from an aimless process "the big bang"..why don't you put in mind that God is the designer of this universe starting from the big bang to the end?

wait for the rest....

I always thought a "Leprechaun" is a small irish person (under 5 feet tall or so). I recently met a guy at a social setting and talked to him enough to learn he is of irish decent and he is only about 4 feet tall. I said to him something to this effect "With you being a leprechaun were you able to play competitive sports when you were younger?" and he got visibly upset and sort of just walked away without answering the question.
-my wife said that he was obviously offended, what is a leprechaun if not an irish midget?

The 'Rapture', to be caught up, is something I thought was going to happen b4 the trib. When I went to the usual scriptures to back it up I was stunned. The usual verses I know like 'two will be in the field one will be taken the other left' and' we shall be caught up in the twinkling of an eye' left me wondering as I read onward. I maybe never took the time to study this but reading the passages after makes me think they are talking about the last day when Jesus gathers His faithful ones up that are left on earth. Many good churches refer to the Rapture as 'on'.Does anyone have any other more specific scriptures on it's actuality or is there no rapture b4 the last day--not that it makes a big diff but would like any insight.

they keep going on about 9/11 as if it was the only terrorist attack that ever happened and if it happened yesterday... i don't get it more people wer killed in the Pakistani earthquakes and what's been done for them? Zilch. The Americans, obviously can't take their own medicine. I hate to generalise a whole nationality but after speaking with a group of Americans a few days ago... I was left infuriated they would not shut up about 9/11 and yet they had never heard of the Pakistani earthquake and forgotten the tsunami and had no idea of the horrific consequences of Chernobyl...

Do you believe these statements about Jesus returning?:

The Lord's return will be announced by a loud trumpet blast, after which the dead (who are saved), will be raised

Jesus will return on a white horse and everyone will know him when they see him.
------------------------------------------------------------
If so, will dead bodies from 500 years ago who are nothing but dust and fragmented bones just reanimate and come out of the ground?

Will They be naked since their clothes have long since decomposed or will jesus give each one new clothes?

Also, How long would it take Jesus to show his face to everyone on earth (5billion people?)??? considering he would have to visit every continent, every country, every remote village, some people would be gone when he got there so he would have to come back later.

According to my calculations, if it took jesus 1 year to see everyone on earth, he would have to see 9,500 people per minute, 365 days straight including travel time

Someone else besides me finally said it. How many are actually paying
attention to this?

There are African Americans, Mexican Americans, Asian
Americans, Arab Americans, Native Americans, etc. and then there are
just Americans.

You pass me on the street and sneer in my direction. You
call me "White boy," "Cracker," "Honkey," "Whitey," "Caveman" and that's OK.

But when I call you, ******, Kike, Towelhead, Sand-******, Camel
Jockey, Beaner, ****, or Chink you call me a racist.

You say that whites commit a lot of violence against you,
so why are the ghettos the most dangerous places to live?

You have the United ***** College Fund.
You have Martin Luther King Day.
You have Black History Month.
You have Cesar Chavez Day.
You have Yom Hashoah
You have Ma'uled Al-Nabi
You have the NAACP.
You have BET.

If we had WET(White Entertainment Television) we'd be racists.
If we had a White Pride Day you would call us racists.
If we had White History Month, we'd be racists.
If we had any organization for only whites to "advance" our lives, we'd be racists.

We have a Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, a Black Chamber of Commerce,
and then we just have the plain Chamber of Commerce. Wonder who pays for that?

If we had a college fund that only gave white students
scholarships, you know we'd be racists. There are over 60 openly
proclaimed Black Colleges in the US, yet if there were "White colleges" that would
be a racist college.

In the Million Man March, you believed that you were
marching for your race and rights. If we marched for our race and
rights, you would call us racists.

You are proud to be black, brown, yellow and orange, and
you're not afraid to announce it. But when we announce our white pride,
you call us racists.

You rob us, car jack us, and shoot at us. But, when a white
police officer shoots a black gang member or beats up a black
drug-dealer running from the law and posing a threat to society, you
call him a racist.

I am proud. But, you call me a racist.

Why is it that only whites can be racists?

There is nothing improper about this email.

Let's see which of you are proud enough to forward it

I like ham, sweet potatoes, collard greens and cornbread too. Why can't we call it southern cooking instead of "Soul Food" or is that another way the we shall be divided. If I cook it or if you cook it it's still the same meal...

I bet you thought i was going to bring up black history month, BET, Ms Black America..etc..as a truly colorblind person that judges per MLK's doctrine by the content of ones character and not the color of their skin I will break bread with anyone....now where is that oxetail gravy recipie of my grandma's?

even America`s version of world history is different to what other developed countries agree on as facts, some even believe that Europe and particulary England depend on charity and handouts from the US and they`re "forever bailing us out of trouble " i would never have believed it if i didn`t see all these questions and answers on here I`m not saying its the whole population ,or theres not people like that here, but how can there be so many ?
