I tried galleria mokotow and tesco. I need to find a big book store here. I have many other questions as well because I have recently moved to Poland from Kansas and feel clueless. I would really like to find a place that sells mexican groceries too. I teach english to kids ages 6 to 18 and would love to find some translations of american classics such as mentioned above but could also use little children stories. Please give me a note if you are sincerely trying to help. Thanks.

I picked up a lovely bible at a yard sale and I would like to give it to my sister for Christmas. It is called "The Devotional Bible -- New Century Version" and is edited by Max Lucado.

Are any of you familiar with it, and would you recommend it? She is non-denominational, but a member of an extremely evangelical born-again church.

(I do *not* need to hear: "burn it, flush it," etc. -- I am an atheist but my opinion on the book itself is immaterial; it is a gift for someone for whom it would be useful.)

Any input would be appreciated!

it is a Born-Again Christian video game where you are fighting the antichrist in a spiritual and physical war. Basically, millions of Christians have been taken to heaven by God. There are millions of people left on Earth and you have been left to help convert the remaining people to Christianity. You can convert people or kill people that don't convert. Once you kill someone, you have to re-energize your "soul points" by bending down and praying.

How is this different than what we are fighting in the middle east? Is this teaching our children fundamentalist views? Is it OK to kill people that don't believe what you believe? Should I get my gun now to protect myself against Born-Again Christians?

I'm a programmer and I need to continue work on my video game where you are a coke addict. Basically, you have sex with prostitutes, rob banks, do drugs, and kill people for sport. I hope to have it finished soon. If the Christians can create evil games, so can I... Thoughts?

What goes through the mind of an emo teenager? What makes them decide to be emo? Is goth any different? or just a different name for emo? What are your thoughts on this? Could you say that it is an "epidemic" that is sweeping teens today?

First off, Merry Christmas to all! Now for the question: I'm a straight guy, but if there's one thing I hate about girls, it's their obsession with cell phones! I'm a college student, and on my campus (and probably every college campus in the U.S.) LITERALLY every other girl who passes by is talking on her cell phone! Sometimes every single one! What do they have to talk about that's SO important? There are times when I want to say hi to or talk to a girl but then I can't...she's on her freaking cell phone! But it doesn't stop there. I was also a TA last semester, and I was giving a lecture one time, and some girl's cell phone rang very loudly and I had to start the sentence over again...very annoying! As if that's not enough, there are times when I'm studying somewhere, and all of a sudden, some girl's cell phone rings with an annoying song/tune, and then she starts talking on the cell, obviously. So, I ask, girls, WHAT IS IT WITH YOUR OBSESSION WITH CELL PHONES?!??

The activities of the people of earth are dominated by financial interests that have one common goal: make a huge profit regardless of cost to people who are not shareholders. The religions of the earth are, generally speaking, power bases for political figures and corporations. They are a fantastic cash cow as well for all sorts of nefarious or ill advised plans. Religion is not the cause of corruption in religion but instead it is the clergy and the rulers who use religion to manipulate the masses. True religion is pure, benevolent, merciful, charitable, apolitical, non-warring, in general a cause of no harm to the people and the cause of unity of humanity.

Adam and Eve is about how innocence is lost when ignorance is lost and a very beautiful story in my opinion but more so if it is interpreteted symbolically. Adam and Eve start out as two carefree humans who know nothing. They are children until one day they eat fruit from the Tree of Knowledge. They grow up like when children learn to be ashamed of their naked bodies. Anyone who is old can understand the more you know about people and the world, the more you will be hurt by it. Losing your childhood is learning despair as Adam and Eve are cast out of their sheltered world of frivolity. The reality of life is much suffering. The outside world of pain and misery that they never cared about is now their home. God represents life, and life is unfair.

Do you think it means something?

It even surprises the scientists.

I think it might mean that the big red dragon might have a copy cat of the virgin birth or Messiah.
