Society & Culture - 8 January 2007

It happened like this. I was minding my own business around midnight, in the kitchenette, choking on my own saliva. Just then, I heard a severe moan coming from inside the pantry. My heart froze in terror. I smiled to myself at the slight mishap, and sprinted over toward the imperfect pitch of sound. I carried a 10 lb bag of liver to use as a weapon, just in case. I opened the pantry door to witness the shenanigan of my 103 year old neighbor, Ethel, in between the shelves rubbing canned corn with botulism all over her scaly appendages. She was just beginning to lose brain cells when I struck her comb-over with the 10 lb bag of liver. I could still smell the fresh paint. I was afraid she would lose what was left of her sanity, so I told the filthy animal to keep the change and I dragged her cartilaginous body with my bare hands out of the pantry and hauled her off my property. I am now up in my abode on my computer, and I am looking out the window, and I see the emaciated bag of flesh climbing up my gutter trying to get into my room. She won’t quit. What should I do???? Ohh help.

Since they are going to grow up to become 'evil', wouldn't you be doing the right thing by aborting them?

We all know about the prevalent Hindu prejudice present in Indian Society against Muslims, and Shah Rukh Khan himself admitted in an interview that he was persistently blackmailed and harrassed at the start of his career solely for being Muslim. But now he emerged on top and seems to be very much admired by all sects of Indian society. Is that truly the case?

Does the nature of your job stress you out? For example, I'm a teacher and that requires me to talk to lots of people. I have some days where I'm really stressed out from it. Sometimes I think I'm in the wrong career path. How do you deal with your shyness at work?

Why would 'god' be angry at people for looking at pictures of people having sex? If he decided that that is how the human race would reproduce, why would he consider that a 'sin'?
Isn't that a bit like someone who builds a computer and tells everyone, don't you dare look at the keyboard and the mouse! Those the sinful and wicked parts!

the timing just seem too "perfect" and maybe the "real date" was less newsworthy. Just goofing off please dont take my question seriously if you dont like it just skip the question there's no need for name calling when its clearly a joke. (just relax) I will never put my real views online.

I feel they are the same black pathers held there fists up and yelled black power. White supremacists do the same but with their hand open yelling white power. Both groups are for their own race to be united as one to fight against the other races. Am i Wrong? If so
explain the difference.

I would think the fetus would be happy to be up in heaven since the religious people claim that the after life is so great. Shouldn't you be patting the abortion doctors on the back for helping Jesus gain another soul?

who don't talk the talk and walk the walk. I find it very difficult and challenging to keep my mouth closed when I'm around people who are not following God's word.

what are some strategies you use when dealing with others who don't behave like real christians? do you tell them, try to guide them, etc.?

I've heard people quote Revelation 22:18 (...If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book) saying that means the Bible is closed.

I don't know if they realize that chronologically, John wrote Revelation before the gospels of Matthew and John and various epistles attributed to Paul. Should all these books be discarded? Not to mention the same 'don't add, don't take away' scripture is found in the Old Testament (Deut 4:2). Wouldn't that mean that everything after Deuteronomy is false?

So I'm curious, where does the belief come from that scripture cannon is closed?

Obviously Jesus did many things that we don't currently have recorded in the 66 books known as the bible (John 21:25). If new records were discovered, would they be rejected?
