Society & Culture - 11 December 2006

My Partner and I have been friends with Leo for a little over 2 years/ He is a gay Latino Male who is very good looking. The problem is that he is very shy. People (men) often think he is being a snob, because he wont even make eye contact, return a smile or speak when addressed. If we go out to a club he wants to dance with just the two of us, which is unfair to my partner and I. We have tried to hook him up with men that would make good dates but he refuses. He often uses the excuse "Iam not into those types." Some of our other friends think he is a snob and far to picky. Our we blind, is our friend really shy or really a stuck up picky person?

Does it bother you that more and more people are apparently too lazy to type out your or this and instead replace them with ur and dis? For one thing, how much time do you really save? And it can make comprehension very difficult. Also, it makes you look very uneducated, even if you aren't. Thoughts on this?


Also, things like kewl and laterz are no shorter than their grammatically correct counterparts....what's the point?

As for my knowledge and the histories point of view Christ has nothing to do with Christmas.

What I believe is some "X" has messed up his own ideas with Christ's Birth day which was not mentioned in the bible and Christ has ever insisted any one to celeberate this event, where as there are many things insisted and compelled in the Bible for the Believers to do to enter in the Kingdom of God, But average Christians dont bother them at all as much as they bother this Christmas.

Do you want to worship this "X" who is messing up with Christ's devine duty?

Can't all human evil be explained by simple human selfishness, avarice, greed, lust, etcetera?

Has anyone any evidence that Satan exists?

and then was "found out" to be doing drugs and buying sex from a man? Caught the last part of it on a show, what is the deal with that? Don't know the whole story, but seems classic to me. I am straight, but get sick of all the haters, so this is of interest to me...do you have any details?

The Bishop of Southwark, Dr Tom Butler was witnessed to be totally drunk having set off the alarm when he got in the back of a Mercedes parked outside a club. There he started throwing out the cuddly toys belonging to the car owner’s children. When challenged he got out and fell to the ground. On returning home he reported he had been mugged! Yet his case was found in the back of the Mercedes. He claims he has no memory of the events!

There were many witnesses to this event and it would appear beyond doubt that he was thoroughly drunk yet will not admit it! What sort of example does this set for anyone?

Timothy 3: 2-3: “A bishop must be above reproach . . . not a drunkard.”

It is said that he has always taken a “zero-tolerance” approach to drunkenness by the clergy and has been utterly ruthless with priests who have been drunk. At least one priest was forced to resign.”
Should he not offer repentance and other senior church figures stop trying to cover for him?

to the teachers about a new counselling program for our primary school kids. She wore normal clothes, swore, (dropping the F*** word regularly) promoted free sex and drinking as to get drunk. Like I said before is this a new thing in the RRC or was she just a rebel? I feel worried for the kids.

Multiply a trillion times a trillion. OK? An eternity has not yet begun at that point.

So, if God sends someone to hell, simply because he or she was Buddhist or Islamic or an atheist and not a Christian. ... If "He" sends someone to hell who lived a good life but didn't believe in or maybe hadn't even heard of Jesus. ... If he allows murderers and theives and rapists to go to hell simply because they "accepted Jesus," but he sends other people who lived good lives to hell, forever, to be eaten by worms and burned alive - doesn't that make him a far, far worse creature than Hitler?

After all, Hitler was a wicked, wicked man, but even he didn't torture people *forever.*

Christmas has become a festivial of sin. Lets have a look at the list of sins that are practice with it.

Lying:- Little childern are told that Santa Claus is readl.
Idol worship:- Santa Claus again.
Enevy:- wanting you've little brothers/sisters toy etc etc or your best girlfriend got a better gift from her boyfriend than you.
Overeating / over drinking, Sloth in front of the TV all day.
etc etc etc

So should Christians give it back to the pagans.

Or did it? I always thought that a Christian was someone who believed in Jesus Christ. But nowadays in some people's usage the word only means members of certain denominations (evangelicals, apparently) and doesn't include other believers in Christ like Catholics, Jehovah's Witnesses, etc. When did this happen?

I'm not trying to make a comment; this is an honest question.
