"The second that they run into something that runs counter to what they think or what their group of friends or what their leadership thinks they should think, they will immediately throw it under the bus"

I don't understand this paragraph at all.

He'd dribble the ball slowly, up and down the court, his head down the whole time. Why? Hw was checking every inch-every inch-of the court to maks sure he would know where the imperfections were so that if he had the ball and they were ahead by one point or behind by one, he would never lose control of the ball by bouncing it in a spot on the court that might deviate it.

My friend belives that everything that happens is meant to happen - that everything happens for a reason - things are pre-ordained.

Do you think our fate mapped out for us and we are following a plan rather than chosing/creating our own destiny?

I have no additional details, I'm just tired of having faith and living my life as a good person and praying and going to church but yet my life keeps getting worse. And people who are "church goers" and then cheat on their spouses, lie to get high paying jobs, and abuse those around them physically and emotionally have everything go right for them, everything just falls perfectly on their laps.

Wood was fairly rare and would have to be imported from other nations. Stone was in abundance though, so wouldn't it be more likely that he was a mason instead?

I have heared that JEWS are the smartest people on earth, much smarter than the brahimns from India.
One of this must be true
Are Jews smarter because of the Covenent (promise) that Jehova GOD made with their ancestors.
OR
Is it just that Jews were from the begining one group of smart people who were smart enough to write the Bible and through a jew named Jesus spread their GOD to the world.

Feel free to express your views.

Women are sometimes forced and sometimes choose to go into this line of work... But there is no regulation of it (certainly not in the UK)... Why shouldn't they have a chance to do this and be protected from exploitation through pimps and given medical help... And they can start paying tax too.. :D

What do you think??? Isn't it still considered to be one of the worlds oldest professions???

[Love to hear some religious crap - though, wasn't there a prostitute mentioned somewhere in the bible??? And what do other religions have to say??? Which ones are specifically against??? Or is it just societies choice to be against it???]

Isn't it about time they wrote the bible in our present lexicon? Maybe then they could get some more people to believe in their religion. Especially those with trouble understanding what the heck Shakespeare was talking about. Or could it be to make themselves sound more impressive and important?
