Society & Culture - 5 November 2006

I can't find any difference. Both were elected to power in democratic elections. Both used Terrorism as an excuse to increase their powers and spy on theirown people. Both invaded other countries. Both lied to achieve their goals. They could be twins. What I find really sad is how stupid Americans are. They mistakenly think the actions of their leader should have no bearing on peoples attitudes to Americans in General. Forty million Germans were punished for Hitler's insane war and 300 million Americans will suffer for Bush's tyrannical actions. You Yanks voted him into office and Karma is going to bite you in the arrs for it. Already more than 2000 US soldiers dead and the condemnation of the entire world directed at you. How much more humiliation are you going to put up with before you fix the problem? If the Germans had succeeded in their early assasination attempt on Hitler then it would have saved millions of lives. Bad things happen when good people do nothing.

Revolution!!

I was pretty hesitant at asking this question, but I'm pretty stuck right now and well, I guess I need some encouragement. I cannot explain my whole situation in 1000 words or less so I'm gonna just say this...

I've been a "questioning Christian" for awhile now, if there is such a thing...that being I believe and trust in God, I really do, but there are so many things I don't understand and I often get fed up with people saying "just trust God, pray and he will make things clear"...well, I've been more confused in the last 4 years (since I've been saved) than I have been when I was not. I was in a spiritual mentoring class through church not long ago and it didn't help me the way that I felt it should. I feel that I'm a good, moral person and I really try, but I'm feeling like I'm going down a dead end road when it comes to a "personal relationship with God". I just don't feel that it's there right now. Sheesh, I could write so much more, but as you know, my space is limited.

Organized religion has been big business for centuries. New Age religions are spin offs of a popular product. They are popping up franchises. Someone is profiting big time on this. Why else feel the need to aggressively recruit.The "sheep" are frowned upon for asking too many questions, much like participants in a pyramid scheme. My mother was a Jehovah's witness for many years, we gave money to watch plenty of grand sales presentations but never once saw the congregation give back to the community. Where is all the money going?

There is a promise of the Quran to them to get rid of them and put others in their place and now it seems that this has come to pass and has left some very bitter Muslims who hate those who have come to Islam and are serious about making the best of Islam.

Allah also says in the Quran that the desert Arabs only say they believe but faith has not yet entered into their hearts and so they turn the Quran upside down and force the Quran to say things that betray their understanding of Arabic.

It would seem that they only have themselves to blame but they cant bear to see others refuse what they were taught was Islam but what turns out to be mere tradition of the Quraish.

Fair is fair. I'll go first. I like their holidays! Life would be boring without them. Yeah, they're based in Pagan Holidays, but they've done a LOT with them. So credit where credit is due.

Also, a lot of the art from the Renessaince is nice.

Would you be able to discern through this media if God were using someone(any of us) to oversee this question and answer session?...After all, God is omnipresent.
Yes, He is here, present in all His Glory spreading His Word through us all. Good and bad. Planting seeds, some will take..some won't.

i'm an 8th grader that lives in southern cali...
and i really wanna become an enviromentalist or some other job that helps the world when i grow up.
So last month i got several of my friends together and we did this thing where we ask for people to donate pennies to me and my friends so we can send them to UNICEF.
A lot of people, teachers mostly, kindly gave us a lot of pennies, but most of my peers didn't..
they taunted us and said stuff like we were going to keep the money for themselves and that it's all a scam...
i was so mad, but i couldn't do anything....
how can people be so un-caring?
do they not understand?
did i do anything wrong???

Haggard confesses to 'lifelong' sexual problem

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colorado (CNN) -- Less than 24 hours after being fired from the mega-church he founded, evangelical Pastor Ted Haggard confessed to a "lifelong" sexual problem.

In a letter read to members of his New Life Church Sunday, Haggard said he is "a deceiver and a liar." Haggard apologized to his congregation in the letter and asked for their forgiveness.

"There is part of my life that is so repulsive and dark that I've been warring against it all of my adult life," Haggard said in the letter read by Pastor Larry Stockstill, a member of the board of overseers of New Life Church. (Gallery)

On Saturday, members of the board ousted Haggard from the 14,000-member church, citing his "sexually immoral conduct." (Watch what led to Haggard's firing -- 2:40)

Mike Jones claims the prominent pastor paid him for sex over a three-year period.
