Society & Culture - 12 December 2006

I am researching and writing a research paper on the assumption that race and inteliigence and intelligence are connected. Following is some more information:

"Race and intelligence is a controversial area of intelligence research studying the nature, origins, and practical consequences of racial and ethnic group differences in intelligence test scores and other measures of cognitive ability."

If you would, please state what you consider your race to be in one of the four major categories: Asian, Caucasian, Hispanic, and Black.

Also please state your GPA and your SAT Score for the New SAT.

Thank you.

Even if this designer is, was, and ever shall be, this still shows that complex things (like a designer) are possible without the intervention of a designer. Right?

If you say wrong, please explain.

For God so loved the world, he gave his only begotten son, so whoever believes in him will never die but have eternal life.

I'm getting better with this but Gay Women make me uncomfortable by thier presence. I work as a bouncer at a lounge and we hold a all gay women event once a month.

I'm never at ease the entire time, I remain respectful thou. I didn't ask to be this way I certainly don't want 2 be, but I feel sooooo out of place around Gay women like I'm in the wrong for being a guy, it sounds silly but man is it true. It's like there is an invisible line drawn your male stay away from us.

Gay dudes don't bother me one bit. I guess it's cause I'm not gay but whatever.

I just need a general guide line to the LDS's views on dating and relationships. I really like this girl and don't want do something considered inapropriot and cause distress to her or her family.

Bearing in mind someone has put thought into that gift for you, even though you know you would never use it? If its not a sentimental item from a family member, would you class this as wrong to gice it to charity?

Ok, in my class, We are doing a secret santa thing and I got assigned to a boy that I hate (he's 11) But unfortuntly, he's got a huge crush on me... I want to get him somthing nice but not too nice to make it seem that I like him. I was thinking about hand-made cookies but that seems a bit to much like a, 'I love you' gift.. Got any ideas, people? I need this answer before the friday before christmas..thanks!

When I was younger I would hear a lot about the end of the world, the "beast", monsters coming out of the water, and humans finally blowing the world up over who will be ruler of all. I would hear a lot about how Christ was coming back and about the Rapture. All this stuff would interest me, but I would think, "Nah, it probably won't happen for a long time". "I can enjoy life by partying and living how I wanted knowing that God would not send me to hell because he is a loving God.

I came to know Christ about the age of 15. I was excited and felt good, I would take my bible to school (Eagle Alternative). People would ridicule me but I didn't care. A few years later I fell from grace, I walked in darkness. I did things that until today I still have a hard time trying to forgive myself for. Up until a few months ago, I could hear God calling me to come back home. I have felt a thirst that could not be quenched. Jesus said that when He calls His "sheep" they hear His voice and recognize His voice. I have heard Him. And I'm glad I did!

Let me ask you something, Do you believe that there is a coming end to this world? Well, let me tell you that the end is not an event that will happen one day out of nowhere. And not something that is still to come sometime in the future. No, it is something that is happening now as you read this! Have you heard about "global warming"? That is caused mostly from power plants. Secular scientist are warning us that within 50 more years, that more than half of all living creatures, will be extinct! They're telling us that if we don't slow it down, the glaciers that are melting now will cause massive floods that will devastate the US. Green Land is melting at record speeds, which will in turn cause even more disastrous events. Keep in mind, we are only talking about global warming.

The bible tells us that in the last days there will be wars and rumors of wars, (Iraq, Vietnam, WW 1&2) famines, (Africa) earthquakes in various places, (there has been more earthquakes in the last few hundred years than it has ever before, according to "experts"). God said that upon his return "The earth will shake".

I will tell you a truth, we have more reason to believe that Christ will return in our generation, that any generation before us! Do you know why? Well, my friends, one very specific reason which is a prophecy from Mathew 24, it says that when you see the "Fig Tree" put forth leaves you know that summer is near, even so when you see these things, know that it is near , at the door. So what does that mean anyway? Well, in the old testament, "Fig Tree" is used a few times to symbolize the state of Israel (Jerusalem). "Put forth leaves" means that is becoming "alive". Did you know that the state of Israel became known as a state recently in 1948 ish? It has been abandoned for over 2000 years since it was destroyed in 70 AD!

That is just one reason, one prophecy, that lets us know, we are living in the very last days.

My purpose for this "Blog" is to warn everyone of the reality of what is going on. We have become a generation that cares about nothing more than partying, looking good this weekend, hooking up, blinging, representing your set, and just crap that does nothing more than to lead you to Death! Which is the enemy's plan in the first place. Join me on this journey as we see biblical prophecy become a reality right before our very eyes!

God Bless.

If your brother, sister or mother left Islam would you kill them??


"No believing man and no believing woman has a choice in their own affairs when Allãh and His Messenger have decided on an issue." 33:36 koran

"All five major schools of Islamic jurisprudence agree that a sane male apostate must be executed. A female apostate may be put to death, according to some schools, or imprisoned, according to others."

It was thousands of years since the original sin and God decided that it was time for him to forgive us, so why did he require a blood sacrifice? If he can do what ever he wants, why didn’t he just to forgive us?

Instead, god sent his only son (an innocent) down to be tortured and murdered by the very people who had sinned against him in the first place, and if you believe in the trinity then you believe that god sent himself down to be sacrificed to himself.

If he wanted to send someone to be an example of good to the world he could have done that without torture and violence, don’t you think?

And “god has a plan” simply means that you don’t know. If you don’t know, why answer the question…
