I wastalking to my mother today and she kept going on about "white folk"this and "white folk"that.I finally started laughing and said to her"give it a rest with the white folk crap,you sound like a slave!".She got irate and starts cursing me out about how I need to wake up and come out of my ubble and start living in the real world and stop pretending that I'm not a black person like her.Then she starts saying that because I'm married to a white man doesn't make mewhite(like I dont know this).All because I was sick of hearing her ignorant banter.All black people do not speak about whites like that,especially in that term"white folk" so repeatedly.I also WILL NOT have her around my kids talkingthat way.My hubby's grandma is a major bigot(only white is right)and I make an effort to keep my kid away from her. Was I wrong to make this comment ?.Am I wrong to protect my kids from poisonous brainwashing?

I asked protestants what they call there male parent they said father/dad... i see no difference Jesus said call no man your father (in that way it doesnt matter if its your priest or your dad)... so how come protestants can call there dads dad/father but say that catholics are "devil worshipers" for calling their priest father?

Meaning, the innocent who die, their death would be reversed so as to live and continue their life before the interruption? I'm not talking about reincarnation! Say you get killed, then later you regain your life functions and continue living. This would be for the innocent victims of whatever.

The Bible has survived numerous people and civilizations who have tried to wipe it out, yet it has been read by more people than any other book. No one has been able to destroy the Bible. Yet people reject it. I don't understand that. Why do you reject God's word?

Simon Peter is mentioned by name some 195 times in the New Testament.

The next most often mentioned apostle is St. John, who is mentioned by name 29 times.

After St. John, the other apostles appear by name far less often.

Don't you question why it is you are so repulsed by the opposite sex's organ? You almost seem to RELISH the opportunity to tell a guy how gross they look in speedos. I described myself as fit, etc...just so you'd know I wasn't fat and hairy. Why is that egotystical, to the one of you who said so?
My God...99% of females wear revealing swimsuits to the beach, and 99% of those who do don't look good. You're such hippocrites. Please, I don't enjoy seeing your odd shaped breasts, cellulite, love handles, piercings, tattoos, crotch stubble...or outlines of anything down there. Utter hippocrites.

No Bibles, Korans, Torahs, or any other religious books allowed. No "Because I can feel him in my heart I know he's there" either. Come on, you know how to use your heads!

P.S. I am not a definite believer or disbeliever.

And you ask "Just HOW do these Fantasy thinkers think?" Well, even though I could write a BOOK! Here are a _few_ examples:

I can drive like an ""idiot"" but when the car breaks or doesn't get the mpg that the 'Dealer' advertized, I can blame the car maker for EVERYthing!! I mean, it _sure_ can't be *My* fault !!!

I can pay my bills late IF I WANT TO!! But when my FICO score goes down, I can just "_Say_" It's not my fault; there must be a mistake!! My bills are __always__ paid on time!!!!

My Insurance Co said my Driver License is suspended because of an FTA, whatever that is!! I have a few traffic tickets I never paid a few years back but what's FTA mean? I always thought that came from a court, and meant 'Failure To Appear' but I try my best to stay away from those things!!

----

Never mind...just go back to bed and keep on hitting that "Snooze" button, and your Fantasy will continue _the way you WANT it to_! IF NOT, simply SUE that alarm clock maker, or badmouth it!

The study shows that 60% of non believers are more depressed than people with faith. Doesn't this sound interesting? If you want to read it for yourself the link is: http://www.stnews.org/rlr-1921.htm
