Society & Culture - 26 October 2006

Some people didn't like my last question, apparently, but they let the bigotry stay. All right then. I've got another.

First read this:

http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/metropolitan/casey/4277355.html

Then answer:

1. Do you support the Farbers' rights to refuse a client for any reason?
2. Would you refuse a client for believing differently (ex.: being anti-gay)?
3. Have you ever been discriminated against for being LGBT?
4. How would you handle the Farbers, or people who thought like them, if this happened to you?

As a Libertarian who wants to run a small business with my Libertarian wife one day (interior design/decor), this made me think real hard.

Caught a punk attempting to rip off a car in a parking lot outside a movie theatre. He had a scredriver in the door lock and it was half out. Didn't call the cops, punk was about 15 years old and he got one of the biggest s h i t kickings of his life.
Wife felt I was a little hard on him.

There was no pity coming from me.

Right or wrong, do you support my actions?

Not Islam. I hear a lot of comments about how mislead christians are because some tell them they are going to hell. But as far as I know they haven't physically harmed them. Some muslims would behead them in the streets. Notice I didn't say all, just some.

So there's this girl I have a massive crush on. As time goes on, she gets more receptive to me. She does a lot of nervous stuff when we sit together, like fixing her bangs, and straightening her sweater, she also laughs at stuff I say that isn't overtly funny, she wrings her hands sometimes, and her legs make nervous movements. We're doing a project together and I suggested we keep in contact over the school email, but she said it would be easier if she got my email and we did it over MSN. She's also looked at me a few times (times that I know about). What do you think? Do you think she likes me?

the poision that oftens threatens the purity of our hearts is lust. to lust is to crave something sexually that God has forbidden.
ex. as a single man looks at a women who is not his wife (which means every women) and immorally fantasize about her, he is lustingt.
even though society condones and expects it , we need to stop it. God states that when somone look at a woman/man lustfully, whether on the street, on a billboard, or in a movie, that peason is actually comming adultery with her/him in their heart (matthew 5:28)

I AM A 15 YEAR OLD GIRL
i rember the anger and disgust i felt wn i get hit on. i was outraged to have served as the object of thier lust, to have thier eyes crawling over me. it was so wrong, so filthy.
what is the porpose?
oppinon?

NEW YORK (AP) _ A British philosophy professor who has been a leading champion of atheism for more than a half-century has changed his mind. He now believes in God -- more or less -- based on scientific evidence, and says so on a video released Thursday.

At age 81, after decades of insisting belief is a mistake, Antony Flew has concluded that some sort of intelligence or first cause must have created the universe. A super-intelligence is the only good explanation for the origin of life and the complexity of nature, Flew said in a telephone interview from England.

Flew said he's best labeled a deist like Thomas Jefferson, whose God was not actively involved in people's lives.

"I'm thinking of a God very different from the God of the Christian and far and away from the God of Islam.....

"My whole life has been guided by the principle of Plato's Socrates: Follow the evidence, wherever it leads."

I keep hoping to find interesting questions and informative answers, but more often than not, I find people just wanting to put other people down. It's very sad to me. Yet, I keep coming back. Why do you?

i came across a magazine article several months ago that termed the above behavior as "mindf*cking" which constituted infidelity. Would it be wrong to form this type of connection with someone who can potentially* be a partner/love interest?

*i don't want to be gender specific to account for the different types of sexual orientations*

your thoughts?

please note: this is strictly a hypothetical question. I am looking for opinions, not advice. Thanks!

I work and live in a very multi-cultural community. The worst cases of racism seems to occur between ethnic groups. Most white citizens never outwardly express any distaste for other races (it would be instantly frowned upon). But with "newcomers", it's totally different. They seem to have no reservations about expressing their hate for other races. Asian people hate east Indians, Muslims hate our Jewish brothers, etc ,etc........

Why is there so much hate????? You'd think they'd be happy to have successfully arrived in a new life.

Having someone read it to you at school or church does not count. How many of you who claim to know so much about the religion have actually read it's most holy book? I'm guessing the percentage is way below 1%.
