There probably should be more battered women's shelters because there are more battered women, but there are battered men too. Are they given any resources?

Think of the ramifications: would we phase it in among the use of automobiles? Some flying, some driving...How could society ever adjust to something like this?

Sadly in this modern world we live in, TV addicts make the world a much better place.

A nice Math formula I made up.
TV Addict + Remote Control * DVR - Reading = Obsessed Junkie
Take the square root of an obsessed Junkie that equals no life.

I’ll go inside the mind of what this machine is really thinking about all of us


TV Monster

I am the TV because addicts thrill me
I am one face, I am the poison
In your tea, and redden your eyes
I’ll kiss you goodbye
Watching your human soul
Stubble and die
Vicariously much better you than I
Sadly you’re not tuning me out
Staring at me like a Junkie
How annoying, but I love it
Counting towards an endless time
Society likes to blame me for sure
Why does this story go?
I’m the greatest thing on Earth
Why does this story fold?
We don’t give pause for mindless drones
I love to watch things rot, from a safest distance
Books are responsible for wars; I hate them
The universe is hostile
So impossible
Devour to survive
So it is, so it's always been ...

We all feed on tragedy
It's like blood to a vampire

Vicariously, I
Live while the whole world dies
Much better you than I.

It's like being back at school and getting wrong off your teacher. I can understand to a certain extent when it's a question full of spelling mistakes, but if you even get one word wrong they pounce like vultures to tell you. WHY!!!! Is it just me or is it just incredibly sad?. It must be great to be so perfect. No doubt there will be a bad grammar in this question, don't tell me I don't care.

Do they come and spar with Atheists because secretly they long to disbelieve? Is it our special Bible Decoder Ring they're after? Do they all deepdown long for a relationship with the FSM?

Arabs are the most ethnically mixed people on the planet, because of the location of the Middle East. It’s a crossroads between three continents: Asia, Africa, and Europe. So Arabs came into existence when people from Europe, Africa, and Asia intermingled. This has caused variation in how Arabs look, even within families. For example, I have a grandmother with green eyes and dark blonde hair. And I have a great- grandfather who was black. However, Arabs don’t value their African ancestry as much as they value their European or white heritage. They like light hair better than dark hair, straight hair better than curly hair, light skin better than dark, and blue or green eyes over dark brown eyes. I have light brown skin, dark brown eyes, and curly black hair…and I’ve been called things like “darkie” because of it…this by people in my own family! They like to boast about if one of their children has blue or green eyes, or looks white or something…I guess racism exists even within families!

Isaiah predicted the Messiah Jesus 700bce perfectly-"Unto us a child will be born, a SON given, and he will be almighty God, and the prince of peace."

I as a Jew saw this and it made me think-where is our Messiah to be the Son given and almighty God and our prince of peace?

as I read on I learned

Isaiah 52:13-53:12 HE WILL BE EXALTED. HE WILL FIRST BE MARRED MORE THAN ANY MAN. HE WILL LAY DOWN HIS LIFE TO MAKE ATONEMENT/FORGIVENESS FOR OUR SINS. HE WILL DIE WITH THE WICKED AND BE BURRIED WITH THE RICH."

only Jesus came and fulfilled these words-which most of my Jewish people as it also promsed would "He will be despised and rejected of his own people."

Jesus taught about Hell-he said it is gnashing teeth, weeping and cursing forever in never ending torment=Revelation 19-22nd chapter. He also spoke of the joy of heaven for all that recieve him and his word. John 12:48 "Reject my words and the same will judge you in the last day." Jesus

how can you reject simpleTruth

I heard from yahoo! answers that using ESP(extrasensory perception), or any form of psychic power, is a sin. So is intuition a sin also? Even if it happens involuntarily?

"Utah residents currently use more antidepressant drugs, notably Prozac® (fluoxetine hydrochloride, introduced in 1987), than the residents of any other US state. This problem is clearly, closely and definitely linked to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Approximately 70% of Utahns are Mormons. Jim Jorgenson, director of pharmacy services for the University of Utah, confirmed that Utah has the highest percentage of anti-depressant use, hypothesizing that large families, larger in Utah than in other states, produce greater stress. (Large Utah families are primarily Mormon families)."
From http://home.teleport.com/~packham/prozac.htm

Why do you think that Mormons take more antidepressant medications than anyone else in the US?

She says she gets offended by comments that other celebrities make (such as Kelly Ripa or Donald Trump), but does she ever think that maybe it is she who is offensive? She gives lesbians a bad name.
