Well, this is just something I never really "got", the idea of heaven has always seemed kind of appauling to me,so I'm curious exactly what is positive about it?

Strictly biblicly speaking, heaven is a kingdom in which there is no death, sickness, or tears, now the first two are perfectly fine, but tears denote pain, both physical and emotional. So heaven is an existance without pain, past the problems of that, a lack of emotional pain also implies a lack of conflict, which can come about in two ways:

1. People are "purified" and no longer tempted toward sin when they enter heaven. This is bibically hinted at, but ultimately, as evils and sin come from free will, it is the equivelant of a moral lobotomy.

2. Such a similar group of people is chosen that no conceivable problems could ever rise between them. Leaving pleanty of moral helpful people suffering eternally while you sit in constant bliss, a fairly disgusting concept.

Your faith is no faith and my faith is the wrong faith and I am evil for preaching love and forgiveness, right? Hang on, theres more. I am angry and mean because I want you to look at everyone equally. (christian or non-christian) I am ignorant about everything including the bible, because I did not actually see any of this happen right?Yet you may or may not believe in evolution, but you have never seen a person turn from a monkey to a man? Where am I wrong and why do you constantly point out the faults of others and not the ones within yourself.

European Police in uniform where the same uniform.
In the US there seem to be so many types of uniform.


I get the impression that anyone can walk around in the US with a police jacket on they were given from uncle Bob !!

I know you are going to tell me its illegal to impersonate a Police Officer.

If uniforms were uniformed would it be better for all ?

As you know in Europe, each countries Police generaly have one uniform that everyone recognises where ever you live.

Ps: Your female cops in uniform are babes ! Well the ones I have seen..

My mum didn't go to the end of term night out at a local pub with her colleagues - she didn't pay a deposit - but the pub charged her and another lady £7.50p each for not turning up- another lady paid over them but surely if she had not paid a deposit then there was no "contract"- if she had paid a deposit and not turned up then I understand she would lose the deposit but to be charged when no binding agreement was made surely this is out of order?

Is it just me or does anyone else find it distasteful that the execution of Sadam has made top headlines over our OWN former President's passing away? I find this rude and it really shows where the American interest lies. I think we owe some respect to those who have led our great country before us. Anyone else have thoughts on this?
