Even if you yourself would choose to go nude, can you really blame someone else if they insisted on wearing clothes?

My point is that Muslim women ought to be allowed to wear their head coverings and modest dress, even where modesty is not the norm.

Most sane people agree that sexual harrassment is a bad thing... We all know the types, the office letch with his bad odours and crap jokes, the wannabe stud in the nightclub with too much aftershave and his jeans half way down his legs girating away like he's some sort of popstar, the dirty old man in the bushes...

But what if you were standing on a crowded train an you were goosed by Brad Pitt, fondled inapropriately by Angelina Jloie, or had Kylie and Jonny Depp approach you, cup your naughty bits and invite you for a threesome?

Would you still be offended? Would you consider yourself to have been violated by such unsolicited approaches, or would you be thanking God/ Allah/ Thor (insert appropriate diety here) for your good fortune?

Is sexual harrassment actually a form of discrimination against ugly, smelly types, or are you honestly able to say you would take the moral high ground and reject lewd approaches from somebody you consider to be insanely hot?

Sometimes people are (insert name of religion) and they go to (insert name of church or mosque) and then these people go and commit acts of terrorism. Should we (society, world, England whatever) ban (insert religion here), ban (insert church or mosque here)?

What causes terrorism is it (religion) or (church/mosque) or is it something like poverty?

Oh I know should we ban poverty (sarcasm)

We are used to the idea of the man being the older one in a relationship.
These days, we come across relationships where the woman is a few years older than the man. But how old is too old to be with a man younger than you?

Lemme give u an example: During peak traffic hours, when an ambulance is trying to access a hospital, it can't do so on time. It is not too difficult to develop some kind of wireless system to solve this problem. I'm refering to problems from the smallest to global scale for which technology can generate solutions. MOST SENSIBLE AND IMMEDIATE REPLY IS SURE OF 10 POINTS!

They open wide their mouth at me, As a ravening and a roaring lion. I am poured out like water, And all my bones are out of joint; My heart is like wax; It is melted within me. My strength is dried up like a potsherd, And my tongue cleaves to my jaws; And Thou dost lay me in the dust of death. For dogs have surrounded me; A band of evildoers has encompassed me; They pierced my hands and my feet. I can count all my bones. They look, they stare at me; They divide my garments among them, And for my clothing they cast lots.

that way,people keep telling me its not influence or enviorment,that their born this way.then why do men and women live almost their entire life straight then find out after 10 or 20 years of marriage they are suddenly attracted to the same sex and become gay or lesbian or bi. u cant tell me their life straight was a lie and they were just hiding their feelings, somehting obviously went wrong physically or mentally to direct them this way ,it may be normal in their mind to be gay but i dont think its natural and they need help the only people who condon being gay are people who are gay,or people like parents who are forced to condon it to keep their kids love so i ask again is being gay more by influence?

If you believe in the bible then is it right to belive mediums talk to the dead? I do believe there are demons on earth. I've read that mediums are just talking to demons that transformed themself to look like a certain deceased person. If you believe in God shouldn't you believe what the bible says happens after death? Just wondering other people's opinions. Thanks

I'm interested in whether the translation of this into Latin employs a subjunctive.
I'd also be interested in its translation into Greek and other languages.

I'd also be interested in people's views on whether this sentence actually says something true.

Again, consider the sentence "the star which is now visible at night might not have been the star which is now visible at night".
Does this strke you as true/false/ungrammatical?

What about its translations into other languages?

I can't say i hate christmas but it does seem like a waste of time. It's meant to be about giving and sharing but all it's about these days is drink driving and running up tons of credit card debt.

These stories and modernism are always having a conflict. As the years go by, do you still believe in ghosts knowing that we are already in the 21st century?
