How do I make this Halloween, easy on my cousin? Last year, my cousins 5 year old son, was struck by a car that was speeding and was killed. Being that he died on Halloween last year, it's very difficult for her, what's even more difficult is the fact that she blames herself, for his death. She was with a group of adults, whom all had their kids, during the moving crowd, her son got away from her grip and before she knew it, it was hard to spot him and when she did spot him, it was too late. The scene was horrific because the person was drunk and speeding. What can i do, to ease her pain? It was only a year ago today, when this happened and she still has nightmares about it.

Who performed the first ever Christian marriage and when was it? I'm not religious but I did wonder. Also, did Joseph and Mary ever get married?

I'm going to kidnapp 3 people, blind fold them in my basement and convince them I am going to kill them all unless 1 of them kills the others, then that 1 person can live. Then when 1 of them agrees to kill the others I'm going to tell them their on candid camera, give them a bag of candy and leave them naked in the forest.

This is an unbiased question, and I'd like your input: did parts of the Bible come from the Epic of Gilgamesh, or did the Epic of Gilgamesh come from the Bible?

This was brought up in my class yesterday.. Christmas holiday is now called Winter Break so we don't offend the Atheists. So why do people think it's okay to offend Christians by saying Xmas or taking prayer out of school? Even during 9/11, there was prayer in school in the moments of silence. So why is it okay to offend Christians?
I'm kind of afraid of what people will write.....I'm just curious on what others think.

During a frank discussion in class one day I asked one of my black students who identified himself as African American if he was born in Africa... answer was no. I then asked him if his parents were born in Africa... again, no. I asked if his grandparents were born in Africa... he didn't know. I asked him if he or his parents ever even visited Africa, his answer again, was no. Then, I asked him, how could he be African American? Shouldn't he be described as black, just as caucasians are labeled as white?

What do you think?

Well how about it? I'm talking about your own experience, not TV or movies? I'm sure that people can come up with things that they have seen that is incredibly disturbing. Remember, talking about disturbing things you have witnessed helps you triumph over the anxiety. Thanks people. (I'm still working through my troubles)

For me it would be Clay Aiken or Dick Cheney packing heat (cause I think he just might use it).

You?

-k- last night, me and my friend Amber were playing with a ouija board and I swear to God it was moving and spelled out actual words. Amber is insisting (even today) that she wasn't pushing it. I've known Amber since I was 5 years old, and she would've told me by now if she was just messing with me. And I know that I was not deliberately pushing it.

What are your thoughts?
Have any of you been freaked out by ouija boards before?

Something doesn't seem right about people who have superior authority with inferior intelligence. I know that if Chicago police acted more prudently, the city would save millions of dollars every year on court settlements.

I know that police are heroes and work hard and put their lives on the line and blah blah blah. But wouldn't it make sense to require a college degree? I mean, they have a lot of responsibility!

I've seen a cop sleeping in his car in a parking lot, and another charge full speed, sirens and lights blaring, blowing traffic lights, and pull into a 7-11...for a pack of smokes. Come on!

If so do you prefer a theme that will last through out the entire upcoming holiday season or do you change with each holiday (Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years)?
