Society & Culture - 4 November 2006

for example, the Puritans were some of the first settlers here. they always strived to be better than the generation before them. one considered himself a failure because when he was 11, he hadn't read the same amount of books his father had!!! what has happened to this mindset? the Puritans also invested in the futures of their children, sometimes up to 10 generations! why is that no longer a prerogative?

It seems to me Western girls are crazy & wild. Though some Asian girls are like that too. Its easy to know just watch shocking video only on Start world channel. They use hidden cam to capture their wildness. Yesterday they showed it too. Let me tell you about it. One girl was getting married suddenly she went away with another guy & started to kiss each other & touch each other body & they were going to have sex but suddenly her husband arrived there & his wife came out & her sex partner left that palce. Then in another story one girl was sitting there with a guy in a football gallary suddenly she took off her pant & kissed him & then that guy took of his pant & took her on his sex & they start to do sex with each other. They played many & its so impossible to tell all of them. So isnt it prove there they dont have any culture to respect? It seems to me they dont have religion or culture & they do anything they need just like a wild thing. How should I say its not true after watching?

According to the Quran 112:3, never did he beget (God), neither was he begotten.
Assuming you believe that he created us, how is this so, if he doesn't beget??

The first words were captured by a secret team of researchers as the Reverend Peter Popoff of Upland, California, stepped onto a stage at San Francisco's Civic Auditorium, where he was about to start a faith healing service that would be videotaped for his weekly national broadcast. The team heard (and captured on tape) an affectionate feminine voice from above: Hello, Petey. I love you! I'm talking to you. Can you hear me? If you can't you're in trouble, 'cause I'm talking as well as I can! (Her voice suddenly becomes businesslike.) ;I'm looking up names right now. This secret team of two was located in a hidden section of the auditorium complex. It consisted of Alec Jason, an electronics expert, and his assistant Bob Steiner. Jason was giving the thumbs-up sign to Steiner as they began a number of surreptitious recordings designed to expose how Reverend Peter Popoff was able to "divinely" recite personal details about audience members and their afflictions during his popular faith-healing services.

Peter Popoff, like many faith healers, calls out the names, illnesses, and sometimes addresses of people at his crusades, then "lays hands" on them and prays for their healing. The impression given at such services is that the information comes directly from God; indeed, a magazine distributed by Popoff's organization described an audience member being "called out by the Spirit for healing". Those in the audience are so impressed by Popoff's "Gift of Knowledge" that they break into applause. The subjects picked are so overwhelmed that they often break into tears. One woman who was "healed" at one of the meetings and later interviewed by CSER stated: " know he is real from the way he talked. He actually knew my address and had no notes to look at! he is real, all right!"

Where is homosexual marriage allowed? In particular in the USA. Also is there any place that allows a marriage like sanction in America.

And lastly, this is just curiosity. Have there been any homosexuals who were the head of state? (Ruled a country)
