PENSACOLA, Fla. - When the bikes Dennis and Tamie Leporin bought themselves for Christmas to ride with their young son disappeared from their front lawn, the couple posted a sign to let the thieves know their disappointment.

"I hope U crooks enjoy our bikes U stole; Merry X-Mas," the sign read.

The next evening the couple heard a knock at their door and found an envelope with $200 inside. A pickup truck was driving away.

"Inside was a note that read, 'For every crook, there are 1,000 good people'," Dennis Leporin told the Pensacola News Journal.

I have recently been through a really tough time in my life, (still not quite through it). I started back to church, pray and always ask God for guidance, love and strengh. My problem is that I don't feel like God is with me. I don't know what else to do. I have no one to talk to. Any suggestions?

When Christians ask questions on here and you rush in with your wit and sarcasm does it make you feel good to ridicule and insult us? Or is there a part of you that is curious and still open to the message. It seems to me there are other catagories that would give better answers to your comments than here where most of us love and accept you.

Basically, do you think that all religions/belief systems need to have a god or gods to be considered a religion/belief system?

There is a muslim girl in my school and nearly everybody hates her. They call her a terrorist and make fun of her and her religion.
She wears a scarf and she is really beautiful. She keeps herself to herself. When people say something to her she smirks and walks off. I dont think she has told anyone about it. Recently a girl pretended she was interested in her religion so she invited her over to her house. The girl got hold of her pic (without the scarf on) somehow and she and her friends got her head and stuck it on a naked womans body and publically humiliated her. Everyone was laughing at her and i could tell she was hurt. People call her ugly, dont know why because she is really pretty. I want to talk to her but i dont know what to say. What should i do? No rude comments please.

When bad things happen to you do you blame God? If so then do you also blame Him when good things happen?

meanwhile if one white dude does some research on a givin insult like,,"white people are the only homeless people" or "white people have poor moral and family values compared to latinos'' he will be branded a racist pig, I will post facts about how these are completley untrue noting that mexicans have the highest unwed birth rate and the highest teen prenancy rate mand highest incident of domestic abuse per capita,,and the fact that there are not more white hobos on the street than latinos,,,,i'm not being racist , I'm just setting the record straight and not putting up with nonesense BS, if you want to make a stereotype at least,,let it have a ribbon of truth in it, IM a realist and a hard rock to tip,,,so bring in on pro-illegals,,,,I can only prove you wrong

don't dish it out if you can't take it ,,I always say

I've got cancer. This guy said he loved me, and hasn't spoken to me for a few days, i can't wait. I organized a date, and today he didn't want to speak to me. I am starting to feel that i shouldn't care about life and people. But i'm a really sympathetic and empathetic person. I wanna be more shielded and tough. Is there anything i can do?

I'm Chinese-canadian myself, and I've read in the Chinese newspapers that said some Chinese tourists are regarded as very rude overseas. I did not agree with that personally until a few days ago, when during an outing with friends, one of my buddies told me that I was speaking too loudly. I guess that no matter how well assimilated I am in western society, I still retain most of my original cultural identity... even the bad aspects of it.

Are there any Westerners who have an opinion on the behaviour of Chinese tourists/immigrants/whatever?

Ok sorry had to vent and see if anyone else feels my pain.

The atheist doesn't subscribe to the ideas propagated by those who choose to believe in a deity. It makes no sense that any human description of a creator would have any validity anywhere in the universe except in the anthropocentric, geocentric human mind.
