I think soon there will be a vigalanti group throughout the UK and other countries, who are sick and tired of putting up with the constant worries arround our town and homes in regards of asbo, drug related problems such as muggings, burgalry, people getting let of with a slap on the wrist for causing mayhem in respect of a 100 or so crimes.Rapists who are let out early, murders of innocent people whos families have had their lifes destroyed and who are made to suffer all there lifes, when some of these poeple are let out of jail early.Peodophiles who are alowed to keep annonamous and have round the clock protection at our costs (the tax payer) .
What do you think GOOD or BAD idea ! yes i i understand its taking law into your own hands,
But give an honest oppinion
Do you think people will set up these groups as a buisness

First let me say I am black but my step-dad who I love dearly is white so please don’t put what I am saying and the question that I am asking down to some anti-white thing! So let me give you some points on mental slavery, mental slavery in my eyes is much worse than physical forceful slavery. With physical slavery you have a master and a slave, master tells slave that he is his property, slave rebels! Slave gets whipped! Are you still with me? Good! So let’s move on to mental slavery. Once again you have a master and you have a slave but with mental slavery you will find that there is no whip and there is no telling the slave that he is your property. You might say to yourself “well his not a slave then” but you would be so wrong. Freedom and justice is about equal opportunity and fairness. Example Having P.diddy………50 cent….jay-z…..Oparh.. etc you would think that they would make me as a black man feel like we can all make it but these so called superstars are just a pat on the back for black people. They might be very rich but there far from very wealthy! Wealth can keep your family in a position of power for hundreds of years to come.
Hence!!! (“Let the slaves go free why not! they don’t own any land they have no money and by the time they do they won’t even know what to do with it”!).
Hence!!! MTV music videos “LOOK AT MY BIG CHAIN! LOOK AT MY B**CH!! I’M RICH B**CH!!! The fools we play!. And if you’re still not a believer in black mental slavery then holla at me I’m sure I can make you a bit more open minded on the subject.
As for now I’ll leave you with some what if questions!!!

What if slavery never happened and black people was doing just fine in Africa?

What if white people and black really didn’t see colour and love was love?

What if Jesus really was black!? (Trick question Jesus was black do your home work find out for yourself).

And before I go let me say!

Power to yellow people
Power to white people
Power to brown people
Power to BLACK people
POWER TO THE PEOPLE!!! 1love!

In the question about Religious Propaganda, one of the answers told the mother she was doing a disservice to her daughter for saying Jesus did not exist. It was a statement that really caught me off guard.

I am an atheist, and I have two young children. Neither is really old enough to discuss these things with, but at some point we will talk about my beliefs, their mother's beliefs, and eventually what they believe. I will always be up from an honest about how I feel. I will also be very supportive in whatever beliefs that they decide to embark on. I just hope they explore, research, and learn everything they can about something before coming to a decision.

I think it was very presumptious for someone to imply even discussing atheism and that god does not exist around a child is bad. I guess I could say the same thing about christians who tell their children there is a god.

I get the "r" for words like Zimmer where it comes at the end, but can never seem to get it right with others like grünen. also, "ch" seems like it's always pronounced differently, either as /sh/ (chinesische) and in other words sometimes as that strange sound that sounds like you're choking and sometimes just like the "h" sound like when a cat hisses. (not very good descriptions i know, but i'm phonetically challenged).

I've heard so much talk about the Daylight Llama, and how he is living in exile, but why is he special, and is there a Nighttime Alpaca?

Also, is his wool prized above all others?

I want to learn all the languages I can, and be as fluent in them as I can be. Can anyone give me the name of some good websites and/or books? Also, can anyone tell me what languages are the "easiest" to learn? All I currently know is English, as well as a few words in Spanish and Mandarin. By the way, I'm doing this on a very limited budget so please reffer me to free websites and books that I could find in my library.

I want to try and help some really sick people. But you can not just drive up to a hospital and say "Hey can I see some really sick people?" They will think you are a really sick person, this time in the head, instead of the healer that you are. I want to heal others and I can't do that unless there is some sort of connection. Visible and touch is good, and what I want to do, if I could just manage a how.

Accordring to most acceptable views supported by logic & rationality the process of evolution,was guided by some supereme mind(god) and as a starting point of every species including humans females were created/evolved.these were sort of super females,who can reproduce by thier own(i.e without male fertization)so they give births & when offsprings matured,the females among them also got dual-properties,i.e either give birth by male fertilization or even without them(if males absent),then gradually over time span thier this ability got vanished.also not single female was created/evolved,there were many in various regions of earth simultanously.
As i believes that"holy mary"was virgin and poise woman.she give birth to "holy jesus" and world wide in nearly all religons it is believed that it was a"miracle"
now as per above here goes my question:

can we assume that mary give birth to jesus by gods will and her same chemistry got activated,which was associated with primative females?

I give my fiancee's mother a birthday gift and xmas gift every year and as always I never get a gift when my birthday comes around. Should I just stop giving her presents? I did get a xmas gift, even though it was a cheap afterthought in January. Is a gift necessary to soften her attitude towards me as a future son in law?

Many people have a favorite song, poem, religious passage or insightful excerpt from a book which they have made a part of their inner life or personal spiritual practice. If it feels appropriate, share one of yours.

They're putting up a HUGE cross next door at the local church. You can see it for blocks in either direction. Meanwhile, I've actually been physically threatened for wearing a small pentagram necklace to the grocery store.

I've noticed a LOT of the Christians here on Answers saying, "Well, the Bible says Christians will be persecuted...". Huh? How exactly are you persecuted? I live in America and I see a cross everywhere I go. We've never NOT had a president who didn't at least claim to be Christian, and every time I turn on the TV, I see a political speech, a sporting event, or a college graduation ceremony being "opened in prayer".

I'm terribly confused as to how, exactly, you guys are getting the short end of the stick. When was the last time you actually thought someone would hurt you for wearing a cross? Because I have to hide my pentagram if I want to truly feel safe....

I have never seen a single piece of actual evidence providing a clear picture to whether or not evolution is true. I don't believe in Evolution and I don't know how anyone else could if theres nothing to prove it. Just a question. take no offense.

Where does the memory go when you die, if it stays then does your memory go on doing what it did in life. eg Does an architect draw better buildings that will never be built.

If you believe in micro-evlution, isn't it just a matter of time until a species splits in two because the sexual equipment of two or more popuations evolves to the point where reproduction between teh populations is impossible.

Doesn't the existence of micro-evolution make macro-evolution a mathematical certainty?
