It seems to me that Al Sharpton has become less of a political force and more of a media darling that does more harm to the Black Community than good. Consider his campaign against Rap. Consider his comments in the wake of the Shaun Bell shooting. If I'm honest, it appears that Sharpton really doesn't like Black people - but is really focused on gaining attention. He's also systematically alienating entire generations of young Black people from their elders. Generational politics in the Black community is hard enough without the Sharpton/Jesse Jackson factor. That said, I would really relish the day when the media no longer turned to him, when no one listened to him, when his name no longer appeared in the papers, on the TV or on my internet news services. How does one go about starting a grassroots campaign to get that man out of the limelight, to get the media to stop thinking Sharpton speaks for/to/of Black People - that he's only concerned with himself, to shut him up?!

once krishna left battlefield , when Jarasandha came to attack mathura,
from this pastime of Krishna , he is known as Ranachora Krsihna (Ranachora: one who leave battlefield without fighting). there are many temples in Gujurat where devotees of
Krishna, worship him with the name RanaChoraJi.

Why Krishna left battlefield, without fighting with Jarasandha??

I'm curious, what's the history behind the accents in the all the worlds, or anthropology behind it. Why do you humans have different accents, speak different languages, and use didn't slang in the same language?

I know it speaks of religious things...but is it an analogy for something else?

And do you have faith in God above,
If the Bible tells you so?

Oh, and while the king was looking down,
The jester stole his thorny crown.
The courtroom was adjourned;
No verdict was returned.

So come on: jack be nimble, jack be quick!
Jack flash sat on a candlestick
Cause fire is the devil’s only friend.

Oh, and as I watched him on the stage
My hands were clenched in fists of rage.
No angel born in hell
Could break that satan’s spell.
And as the flames climbed high into the night
To light the sacrificial rite,
I saw satan laughing with delight
The day the music died

And the three men I admire most:
The father, son, and the holy ghost,
They caught the last train for the coast
The day the music died.

Ok... I am learning english and my husband don't speak spanish... I am making a father's day gift for him with a poem that I found in the internet. Please read the poem and continue reading below:

Even though I'm little
and can't express myself in words

Even though my thoughts
for now remain unspoken
I really want you to know
That I love the way you look at me
smile at me and talk to me

you always know how to make me happy
by doing little things for me

Being your child is fun
and you are the best daddy
in the whole wide world

I love you daddy

OK, after the line that say "Talk to me" I want to write something like: "and sign to me the cookie monster song"... (because my husband do this with our baby all the time and is so cuteee) but I don't know how write it.
Pleas e tell me how I write this part of the cookie monster song.

I feel a little silly writing this but I need help. My english is very poquito...

Graaaaacias.

Even more, does the fact that Protestant communities and nations are the places where capitalism thrives most have spiritual meaning?

How so?

but they die before they can have the tattoo removed, are they condemned to hell?
Say it's a very blatantly Pagan tattoo, like an image of a Pagan god or something.

I am a healer through the ever abundant power of the one true God...well he's given me gifts to do anything to help others remove physical, emotional pain in a matter of minutes. It may seem out there but I have actually raised the dead by the power of Yeshua..

I however am stuck with chronic pain I have had for 4+ years. Before I became involved in healing and spirituality.

I am ardent in my beliefs but I do not understand why I have carried the burden.

My conclusion to this is that I want so badly to help others not feel the way and in doing so I can heal others by my own faith when they have none or need help..

What do you think?

Why can't I heal my own physical pain and anxiety but can do it for others? It's horrible beyond reason.
