Society & Culture - 3 November 2006

I have recently seen a banner hanging in the window of a house, visible to passers-by. It is about a foot wide horizontally and two feet long vertically. There is a wide red border (about 2 inches wide) around the edge of the banner. Inside the border it is white, except for a blue five-pointed star at the exact center of the banner. There is gold fringe hanging from the bottom of the banner. Does the banner represent anything special, or is it just decorative?

I recon that the homeless are so lasy that they would prefer to live in the streets than get a job. (Dont talk shite about alcohol and drugs because I have seen it all.)

Because I have a band audition tomorrow and I am worried that the other members won't give me a chance simply because I don't fit the 'rock' mold. By the way, I am a very skilled musician. What are your ideas?

I don't get it.

I want my polical representatives to do something about the health and safety of the food that's on my table, the water that comes out of the faucet, the roads we travel, the value of my earnings, employment, schools, infrastructure, child services,homeland security, international diplomacy, ending the deaths of our troops and innocent civilians in Iraq, etc... Gays make up 2% of the population according to Christian conservatives. End the discrimination AND MOVE ON TO MANAGING THE SIGNFICANT ISSUES THAT EFFECT THE AVERAGE CITIZEN! In other words, stop blowing that issue out of proportion and do your friggin' job!

Your thoughts?

They act just like people do in movies and TV when they are possessed. its is so obvious they are just copying what they see. It just like how 50 years ago, every alien sighting, the alien was described as a hideous monster (just like TV) and now days every alien is skinny with a triangular head with almond shaped eyes (just like the movies). I think people are confusing TV with reality, expecially those nutty christians

When I look at what passes for culture in the United States I am appalled. I am talking about B-list celebrities who get way to much ink, like the Hiltons and their ilk. If Americans are so lacking in intellect, how do we maintain our ascendency in the world. I have heard that it is because it is run by a handful of technocrats, who keep things goin.

We seem to do a pretty good job of it here.

Is this just another example of how nonexistent god really is?

that if enough people put their faith into one book, they can doom the future of our planet and all of mankind? Isn't this the real reason we are angry? Do they ever stop to think that their book could just be the mad ramblings of people gone insane? How do we stop mass insanity?

I'm 17
I've been told that I'm very freindly.
I dont like to make fun of people and I try to be as polite as I can unless you make me really, really mad. and I hardly get really mad, some things dont seem worth getting mad over.
I like to have fun and laugh and make people laugh, and I like to volunteer for things...
I dont know what else to say. i guess you'd just have to meet me for yourself to get what i'm all about
but what do you think so far?

What are some good books to read, if you are researching the Wiccan religion and the like? I was online at amazon.com, and a few of the books I would think were good to read, apparently got good and bad views mixed in. So, from a true witch, what material would you suggest?

(Silver Ravenwolfe was also badly reviewed, for anyone who wishes to mention her)

I just learned who Haggard was today, but doing some reading I found that his accuser failed a lie detector test.

Now me an' Cooter here are out on the front porch readin our baable as good old boys do, when we come across some stuff in gospel of St. Look (Ah think) Naaaw Cooter's been to cawledge an he can do some pretty fancy figurin', so he drags aat the original greek texts an he finds that efta the crucification it says Joseph of aaarmithea went to ole Pontius Pilate an begged him for the 'soma' which is the livin body, and PP says you may hev the 'ptoma' which cordin' to Cooter means the dead body. So is somethn strange goin on here? I mean ah would not like my faith in the good KJV shattered ba contridictions or a skism hevn' forbid Ah mean was Jeesus dead when they took him of that gooddam cross, or jest in one of them comma things?
