I don't think i've ever seen a bull-fighting related question on it. Can you think of something interesting to say about it? Is it still practised?

Consider a Christian, for example. Does he or she believe the Koran to be the perfect word of God? Is a mosque or synogogue as worthy as a church? Is Jesus, as the Jewish and Muslim faith believe, NOT the son of God, but a mere messenger?

YOu do realize anti-semitism is a word coined by a Jew to describe the hatred of Jews, right. I meen, you are correct that Arabs (I am one) are semites, but you also realize that the word Semite is derived from the Biblical story of the flood, and Noahs son Shem. YOu also realie that according to the same legend Europeans come from Esau, Isaac's other son, so Europeans are Semites too; thus making the word "anti-semitic" meaningless unless you just surrender to using it for what it was coined for.

I just wondered if you guys realize this stuff?

charitable organisations and globalisation is bringing countries closer together. What are your views on the 'progress' being made by humanity...are we going in the right direction? Or are we taking two paces forward and three back? Will we ever make it to achieve peace and justice for all nations on earth, or is this only an impossible dream?

Last year I watched 80% less TV. The 20% went to watching sports, movies on DVD, and news that's very important to me, and I don't mean celebrity fluff and all of that junk. I plan on watching lesser TV in 2007. There's too much junk on TV especially those so-called reality shows. I don't even know what show is on and the day and time it airs anymore. In my free time, I'd rather read some selp-help books to improve my life, talk to strangers in bookstores, gyms, sporting events, nightclubs, etc. We shouldn't be brainwashed by what we see on TV. We're smarter than that. I see TV nothing more than a social isolator, like iPods, and cell phones.

Based on I.Q. tests given to members of different professions, pastors scored the lowest. The intelligence of some pastors is equivalent to that of an adult monkey, or a 3 year old child. Some border on retardation.

i just read an article about mitt romney, http://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1758870/posts

and there is a passage that says mormons have a ban on hot drinks, why is that???

p.s. this is a serious question, in the article mormons sound like the normal-ist of people, and nothing jumps out as odd until iread the hot drink ban (which doesn't seem crazy or weird, it just came out of left field, i thought "hot drink ban what is the reasoning behind that?"

I am a Korean male, and I struggle with my native language. When I was young, I was sent to Korean school, but had no interest in learning. I was the only asian in my elementary school, so I had no desire to learn. Now since I am older, I do not feel completely Korean, because my reading, writing and speaking skills are poor. Are there any Koreans in the New York area, that can help me find a class to go to? I don't want to spend too much money on classes.

It's like they want it all for themselves and if they have to share, it's no fun! Also, they refuse to recognise the fact that both Christmas AND Easter originated as PAGAN holidays (Christmas contains elements of various pagan holidays/rituals, especially Yule, while Easter gets its name from the pagan goddess Eostre/Ostara who turned a bird into an egg-laying bunny!) Yet they STILL claim both these holidays are somehow 100% Christian - never mind the facts! Can't they get it through their knotty little heads that not everything originated with THEM?!??!?

couldn't he have just lived and been all right, and then taken us & saved us from this world? Why did he have to die in the cross? Is it symbolic or what? Seems to me that maybe he didnt have to die that way, he could have just saved us using his power.

Do you think with transportation, schedules, and less than the normal amount of sleep is society becomming more fast-paced. Do you ever feel like its pulling you, rather than it working to your advantage. Including school and or work.
