The church wanted to help someone affected by Hurricane Katrina, so they gave, free and clear, a house in Memphis, to a 'worthy' couple. The couple never moved in and sold the house for a profit. What are you opinions about this?

I think it was morally wrong for the couple to do this, if they didn't think they'd like Memphis, then don't take the house. Or if it was a deliberate scam, well really, it is a 'needless to say'...of course that is wrong!

I feel bad for the church, this is a hard lesson for them to learn...

Comments?

THE BLONDE PAINTER
A blonde, wanting to earn some extra money, decided to hire herself
out
as a
"handy woman" and started canvassing a nearby well-to-do neighborhood.
She
went
to the front door of the first house, and asked the owner if he had any
odd jobs for her to do.

"Well, I guess I could use somebody to paint my porch," he said. "How
much
will you charge me?"

The blonde quickly responded, "How about $50.00?"

The man agreed and told her that the paint and everything she would
need
were
in the garage.

The man's wife, hearing the conversation, said to her husband, "Does
she
realize that our porch goes all
the way around the house?"

He responded, "That's a bit cynical, isn't it?"

The wife replied, "You're right. I guess I'm starting to believe all
those
dumb blonde jokes we've been getting by email lately."

A short time later, the blonde came to the door to collect her money.

"You're finished already?" the husband asked.

"Yes," the blonde replied, "and I had paint left over, so I gave it
two
coats."

Impressed, the man reached into his pocket for the $50.00 and handed
it to her.


"And by the way," the blonde added, "it's not a Porch. It's a Lexus."

Hi. I am from Canada, and I am wondering, is it still a holiday in the States? I sent a payment for my stepsister by overnight courrier on Wednesday, but the payment never got processed yesterday because it was Thanksgiving in the States yesterday. Any chance the payment will get processed today?

Please explain what keeps you from being more zealous for God, and if possible, please explain how you would define someone who is "on fire" for God. What keeps you from being this more?

I'm not asking you about sexual oritentation, I'd just like to comment on something.

First of all, I'm a heterosexual but what amazes me is that I find "female soul" so much more beautiful than a man's. If we're talking in terms of friendship, women can give you so much tenderness. I am only attracted (romantically) to men but I wonder why this is. My explanation is that it's because I'm a girl too and I perceive the same in my female friends and knowing that gives me comfort.

I guess it's the same with men. They feel "spiritually" closer ro each other.

thanx

Today is my birthday and I realized that my personal new year (my goals, hopes, aspirations) is always renewed and that I do most of the assesing of my past year on my birthday, as opposed to the traditional calender January 1 new year. For people not born in January do you measure your personal life in the year between birthdays or in the year between Januarys?

My observation is that regardless of sexual orientation both genders operate and oscillate to and fro between a "Masculine Mode" and a "Feminine Mode" in physiological and psychological functions. For instance, the masculine mode is the modus operandi of putting forth, building, construction, the doing, the ejecting into the world and impregnation; while the feminine mode is the modus operandi of the intuiting, the dissecting, the organizing, the contemplative of things, the ingesting, the absorbing, the taking in, the compartmentalizing and the inspiring. Thus, an architect must shift into the feminine mode to design a building, evaluating and organizing the spatial relations, analyzing the dimensions and appropriate materials. When he is finished, he then hands the blueprints over to the contractor, and she must shift into the masculine mode to materialize the final tangible structure, the doing, the poring of the foundational slab and the building. What are you thoughts on this?
