basically, i have muslim friends and they are so kind and not as bad as we thought. I don't understand people who thought that muslims are bad. After 9/11 attack,everybody become so prejudice toward them. Don't u think they're actually doesn't deserve this? after all, just because one makes mistake, doesn't make all bad.

Chinese people are upset at rosie o'donnell saying "ching-chong" a white guy uses the "n" word and is lambasted, but black guys this morning are saying "Hey, whats up my n*gga?" and that is cool to them? You don't want to jew anyone down or you will upset them. and you certainly don't want to make fun of Muhammed or they will burn you in effigy. But if you make fun of the bible or do a painting with crap on a cross. That is ok. I am just wondering what your opinion on P.C. is. Is it good that we are being more sensitive or has it gone so far as to even infringe on your right of freedom of speech and opinion?

If Iran succeeds in attacking Israel?

Ezekiel 38
I am against you, O Gog... After many days you will be called to arms. In future years you will invade a land that has recovered from war, whose people were gathered from many nations to the mountains of Israel, which had long been desolate. [Israel did not even exist as a nation, was "desolate", from 70 AD till 1948] When Gog attacks the land of Israel, my hot anger will be aroused ... In my zeal and fiery wrath I declare that at that time there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel ... I will summon a sword against Gog on all my mountains ... I will execute judgment upon him with plague and bloodshed; I will pour down torrents of rain, hailstones and burning sulfur on him and on his troops and on the many nations with him.

Christmas is almost upon us,
It's my favorite time of the year.
But don't leave out milk and cookies,
I want steak and beer.



If you've been extra special,
This is what I'll do
With all the toys I leave you,
I'll throw in batteries too.



So before I come to your house
I have to take a pause,
To go upstairs this evening
And visit Mrs. Claus.



I hope you like my short poem,
I hope the wordings right,
I wish you Merry Christmas
And a happy Christmas night.



Ho Ho Ho

I am non smoker and I would like to get peoples views on this issue. I have seen many arguements from a smokers side of view that basically says "if non smokers don't wanna be around smokers then they shouldn't go to pubs!"

I might be the only one in England that see it differently, I see there are 2 options:

A) The smoking ban goes ahead and then smokers brave the cold for 5 mins to have a cigarette and only those who want to kill themselves with smoke can leaving the rest of us healthy

or

B) Non smokers have to drink outside the pubs and smokers can stay inside!

Please tell me your views

Egyptian mythology, and other mythologies around the world have depicted homosexuality, both in good context and bad context. One of the most well known stories was the depiction of homosexuality between two Gods of Egypt; Horus the God of the Sky and Northern Egypt and Set, God of the Storms and Southern Egypt. Mythology has depicted both consentual and non cosentual intercourse when Set attracted Horus with the line "How lovely your backside is." What is your opinion, did the Egyptians speak of shame that such an act took place? Or did they tell the story without risk of embarassment? Was it a common ideal to them? And what would you prefer? The idea that it was rape? Or the idea that it was pleasure for the Hawk god?

I see so many valid questions being asked about things that people have strong views on and a lot of replies seem to be very defensive as if the responders are being attacked personally.

Does this reflect the current state of global relations?
Are we acting this way as a result of having to 'defend our way of life' in so many ways?

I know that all paper seams must be taped over, but does the paper have to be that brown "grocery bag" type paper? I have some pretty red bulletin board paper that is much more festive, and was wondering if I could use it instead?

Thanks in advance!

European Union will have 2 new members since 1st january 2007.
Thats Romania and Bulgaria.
Now i see all kinds of advertising about European Union being something that protects enviroment, says yes to gay marriages, is against racism and child abuse.

Theres a rule in UK about romanian and bulgarian people that go to their country to work.
It says that if a company wants to hire a romanian or bulgarian, that company will have to proove that they couldnt replace the person with an englishman!
Excuse me!Thats outrageous!Its pure racism people!

If all countries inside European Union are racist, then why does EU act like they arent?

Paul never met Jesus and therefore can't be trusted?

What about the story of the Road to damacus?
Paul's dramatic change?
The fact that he never contradicts Jesus?

(While Mohammed's message did contradict that of Jesus)
