I don't call myself white. I don't want to be associated with suburban mothers race traitors and bland waspishness. I am sicilian. If mexicants are called by their nationality then so will I.
I refuse to call myself that when you have blacks calling themselves african americans. I refuse. I am caucasian yes but white no. You don't see asians calling themsevles yellow.

Leave your man alone, he works hard all day, he doesn't sit on his fat *** like you. Dinner better be ready when he comes home from work, so get your *** in the kitchen or it's the pimp hand to your face.

This occurred in Alanta City , New Jersey Some of the letters are comical (a man asking God to let him win the lottery, twice), others are heartbreaking (a distraught teen asking forgiveness for an abortion, an unwed mother pleading with God to make the baby's father marry her). The letters — about 300 in all, sent to a New Jersey minister — ended up dumped in the ocean, most of them unopened. Also the minister died two years ago at 79. How the letters, some dating to 1973, wound up bobbing in the surf is a mystery.

Can you say hypocrite? If I get reported for this question it will speak volumes about the Christian Right. First Congress and now the Evangelicals. Praise God!!!

I don't know what gets to me more. The fact that none of the letters were opened, or that the person who found them wants to sell them on Ebay. Ok, the Ebay thing gets to me more.

If you found letters to God from so many people, what would you do? Honestly, I"d burn them. NOt from hate, but because in many cultures and religions, burning items sends the prayers and wishes up to the heavens, symbolically in the smoke. It would be nice to send the letters to God, where they were meant to go.

What would you do?

Why is it America as a nation are quite happy to delude their children about their history ie wars and politics I just had a conversation with an eleven yr old and he doesn't have a single clue about any of the true accounts of either, all he has ever been told is a pack of lies.


I actually feel sorry for him do you?

Do us English all say "Home James". Are all Irish a bit dumb? Are Americans all Fat and Obese? Even more local ones i.e. do all English Northerners breed whippets and have flat caps? Is everyone living in Brighton gay? Are Southernors Pufters? Are Northernors stupid? (all these said with tongue in cheek by the way) LOL

As far as i can tell the oldest Christian Denomination still in existance is The Ancient Church of The East founded in AD78 in Iraq(Mesopotamia) and Syria, and still exists in these countries. The Catholic and Orthodox Churches hadnt been founded by then, and the Church of St Thomas in India is an offshoot of Ancient Church of East.

I know some people say having God in your life is more than just listening to Christian music, having a bumper sticker on your car, or constantly talking about religon. They always say they've "found" Him. What does this mean? It sounds like such a inseperable closeness that I would like to have with Him. What do I need to do to find Him in my life and be more filfilled with love for Him? Thanks...

The 7 Sisters stories are significant in many Ancient cultures of the World, Greek, American Indian, Japanese, New Zealand Maouri's, Australian Aboriginals, Aztecs, South Africa and more, the star system is even mentioned in the BIBLE.
Why do you think so many cultures are familiar with this star system but have similar stories and names?.
Do you believe there is some truth to what people call the Myth and if so why?

I need information about forced mariages, mainly in islamistic countries (like Algeria). How are the traditions? Is this still the custom? How has the situation changed?

I just answered a similar question where I stated the Romans killed Jesus. I was surprised to find a quick 3 thumbs down obviously by Christians.

Are Christians truly that ignorant on their own religion?
