Society & Culture - 26 October 2006

I have always believed that special meant exactly that, special, better than average. A highly intelligent person is special, someone who is selfsacrificing is special, a generous person is special, dinner at a nice restaruant is special, etc. Functioning at normal or below normal level isn't special.

I am searching for the best ways to honor and invoke the Goddess, Isis. I've been a practicing Pagan for years, but have just recently found my path. Any advice is welcome.
Feel free to email me.

as we say Holidays instead of Christmas as we wouldn't want to offend heathens, what is a good politically correct and user friendly way to tell someone they are going to hell? we don't want of be offensive. Any ideas? How bout you are going to a very warm climate with a with alot of open minded tollerant people, lotsa diversity,and all. After all since hell doesn't sound very pleasant and might offend someone, what can one say to make it sound more appealing to everyone and all inclusive? Just a thought

This is a term used in a paper I'm writing that I don't really understand. It should have to do with Chritian (Catholic) perception of God, and Jesus from 12th to 15th centuries.

Since Rumsfeld told everyone to "BACK OFF" I have already emailed the white house and Oprah to try and get it started. What do you think?

If I had to say, I would guess most answers will be "they think we think we're perfect" or "they think we're stupid."

Aren't we all guilty of wearing a mask sometimes. We have many different faces that we show the world.

There's the face we show our family, is this the true one? Loving and caring, always there when trouble comes knocking at the door.

Or is it the one we show our friends, laughing and joking. Wanting to have a good time.

Maybe it's the one we use at work, sometimes serious, laughing at all the right jokes. Making ourselves look useful when we're actually busy doing nothing.

Or is it the one we keep for ourselves. The one that's full of doubt, hopes and dreams. Looking inwards. Trying to make sense of what's going on around us. Frightened about what will happen to our children, our friends, our world.

Then there's the one we show to strangers, aloof and apart. Being careful not to make eye contact in case somebody takes offence.

Do we ever show our true face to the world or do we guard it like a secret in case people see the real us. And realise we are not who we seem to be.

someone in a newspaper wrote today that this is still supposed to be a christian country?

What does this mean and futhermore - how can it be a christian country - if many non-christians live here.

I agree that it may be predominantly christian - but does that make it a christian country?
