2012 is coming ever nearer and ever night I dream of that moment, just 1,827 days away. Are You prepared for the inevitable end to all things?

I just can't imagine being chaste. Sex is a very powerful urge, like the way salmon swim up river to mate. And it always seems that religious institutions that condem sex are always being exposed as temples of 'sin' within. I doubt any religion could 'cure,' my desire, as I doubt that they could even curtail their own. How does one do that, subdue their biological drive. What could possibly be more enjoyable than sex?

Recently, Oprah Winfrey, who just opened a school for orphan and impoverished girls in South Africa, stated, "I became so frustrated with visiting inner-city schools [in the U.S.] that I just stopped going. The sense that you need to learn just isn't there," she says. "If you ask the kids what they want or need, they will say an iPod or some sneakers. In South Africa, they don't ask for money or toys. They ask for uniforms so they can go to school." As both an American student and a future teacher, I have experienced this attitude as well (not everywhere, but in enough places where it is a problem). How can we get students in America to value and appreciate education and if they are unsatisfied, how can we get students to express the changes that need to be made so that they will value it?
Thanks. (Serious replies only).

We all know that Snape has been in such bitter life. Neglected and abused by his parents. Suffered relentless teasing and bullying from the Marauders. Hung upside down in mid-air, humiliated while other students watched. Have an ugly appearance. Unpopular among his colleagues and most students. Alone and lonely, without true friends to support him. (Well, at least he’s still a gifted and powerful wizard in Harry Potter’s world.)

What do you think then? Do you at least have such sympathy toward him?

I'm an Anglican who is getting a little tired of the blatant teachings contrary to the Bible on homosexuality, abortion, premarital sex, etc from the Episcopal clergy. I was actually raised Methodist but I don't how things have changed. Can a conservative find a home in Methodism? What do they say about things like abortion and premarital sex? (I know the easy answer is Southern Baptist or MegaChurch or whatever but I can't seem to wean myself away from the Mainline--I like the traditions and liturgy).

Why is it only Gods fault that people dont get what they pray for?
What have you done for him?
Have you come to no him?
Do what he askes of you?
Read the Bible?
Do you even use his name? (how are you to no some one personaly with out using a name?)
Why is it only when your life is bad that you turn to him..where are you the rest of the time?

Not trying to make any one mad..Just wondering why its Gods fault when your life doesnt go the way you want it to...

I mean, done something so humiliating that you could not face people afterward? So humiliating that you couldn't even look in the mirror? So humiliating that your thought moving to a different city?
Changing your name? Wearing a wig to work? (just kidding)

It was a historical chunk of India before it was taken away because Muslims wanted their own state, fearing religious persecution in India. Since these days, we've seen the opposite. Muslims are 17% of the Indian population, with full civil rights (There are now more Muslims in India than in Pakistan itself). Because India is the world's largest secular democracy, it's had no less than four Muslim presidents in 70 years. Pakistan is a military regime famous for its Blasphemy Law and its persecution of Christians and Hindus; In fact Hindus have been fleeing the country for decades, and are now less than 3% of the population. So judging by Pakistan's inferior human rights record, its lack of respect for democracy and the religious rights of non-Muslims, and the way it was created, does it have the right to exist, or should it go back to India?
