They allowed her to grow up to be the mess that she is. She's a horrible human being...everything that is wrong with our culture can be found in Paris Hilton. They never made her work or be responsible for anything so she grew up and all she cares about now is her looks and her things and partying. Is it really a surprise? Can she really be blamed? I can't say that I would have made my kids work if I were them..but irregardless of that..I still would have instilled in them decent behavior and the important things in life (not material, appearance and money). They look like the buffoons in this to me...showing up at her hearings like they wish they could get her out of this...My parents wouldn't even show up. They'd support me doing the time and learning a damn lesson. Seeing Kathy Hilton shed a tear is despicable! What do you all think? (besides really not caring about this girl anymore)...

How would Christians feel if Atheists went around saying, "Atheists blessed you with science"?

Atheists aren't disrespectful like Christians so we wouldn't do that

Our office is like the big brother house, well was, there are 6 women and one male.

The manager from the head office (female) told the male, who is a new recruit (too much like BB now!) that he needs to hold tight to his balls cos we will have him for breakfast and not take any rubbish

Is THAT a good thing to be an alpha female?

People on here get so upset and rant and rave about Christians being duped out of their money. We like to give to God's work, why does that bother non-christians??

But our early man has a moment to reflect and he thinks to himself, "Well, this is an interesting world that I find myself in," and then he asks himself a very treacherous question, a question that is totally meaningless and fallacious, but only comes about because of the nature of the sort of person he is, the sort of person he has evolved into, and the sort of person who has thrived because he thinks this particular way. Man the maker looks at his world and says, "So who made this, then?" Who made this?--you can see why it's a treachersous question. Early man thinks, "Well, because there's onle one sort of being I know about who makes things, whoever made this must therefore be a much bigger, much more powerful and neccessarily invisible, one of me, and because I tend to be the strong one who does all the stuff, he's probably male."

these are a few scriptures that I have found that are so different than other Bibles..( I can't say all because I have compared a lot but not all )..Your bible that you use has such different meanings to the scripritures the way it was translated..These changes are important ones..Wouldn't Jehovah make sure that the bibles that are in most homes be the right one..not with such drastic differences. Its no wonder you believe what you do..Your bibles have a different translation to these scriptures. Do you know who translated your Bible and if they were qualified to do so? I don't think most JW's know ..but its so easy to research it and find out..maybe they should take the time to do so. Should and are you putting more trust in man than in God.?Exodus 3:13 compared with John 8:58..... (Both God and Jesus say I AM, but JWs bible has Jesus saying I have been.)

Colossians 1:15-17.....(JWs bible inserted the word "other" 4 times so that Jesus is now the creator of all "other" things and before all "other" things ect.)

Hebrews 1:6....( Changed "worship" to 'obsienence') also did it in Matthew 2:2,11 14:33 28:9

Hebrews 1:8...( should say "But to the Son He says: "Your throne, O God, is forever and ever;) the JWs says "But in reference to the Son...)

Acts 20:28...(speaking of the church that GOD PURCHASE WITH HIS OWN BLOOD), JWs say with the blood of HIS OWN SON)

Luke 23:43....( Changed comma in Jesus speaking about paradise)

Titus 2:1......( Great God and Savior ,Jesus Christ changed to Great God AND OF THE savior Jesus Christ)

John 17:21....(Changed Jesus saying.."as You, Father, are in Me and I in You" to "Are in UNION with me"

Acts 10:36...(Jesus changed to Lord of 'All others' they also did it in Romans 8:32, and Philippeans 2:9. and Collosians 1:16-17)

Romans 9:5....( Changed.."according to the flesh, Christ came , who is over all, the eternally blessed God." to "according to the flesh: GOD WHO IS OVER ALL)

John 10:38...( changed Jesus's words that He is in the Father and the Father in Him, to 'in union with '.)

Many thanks to John, Paul, George, and Ringo for the inspiration to write this. It was a labor of love.
AND
The Chupacabra's name comes from "Chupar", meaning "to suck" and "cabra", which is a goat. It has reportedly been spotted, to date, in the United States. Brazil, Argentina, and Puerto Rico, among others. It is a lizard-like being, 3 to 4 feet high, and has rows of claws all along its body. There have been numerous "sightings" but no physical proof. Some offer that it must be from another dimension. It drinks the blood of livestock, including but not limited to goats, though they are the most common victim.

We can thank God by making the most of our lives in a practical sense and helping others to do the same, so why do people pray? If people pray for the safe return of Madeleine McCann but the unthinkable happens and she is not returned safe, what does this mean for the prayers that were said?

I'm tired of hearing about black people always on welfare. I see more young white females going to welfare now to collect food stamps for their babies. They wasn't lazy to open up their legs. and I'm a Jamaican young woman, and I'm tired of hearing that Jamaican people are selfish. I'm not that type.

I'm sure this must have been asked but I am really curious ... If you were faced with absolute proof that there was no God, no afterlife and everything was just a myth would you change anything about your life? Would you reject the current values you are living or would you continue following those values?

Many people are religious yet understand that the world wasnt created 6000 years ago. How do they come to terms with the direct contradiction to what the bible is telling them? How do they accept a blatent lie from the bible yet go on believing all that other garbage?

There is probably a priest out there who has done nothing but good all his life, and ended up being murdered. Hmm.. Take Jesus as an example. The man did nothing but good all his life, and then he was crucified. Is that good Karma? Martin Luther King Jr was a great man who preached to help free african americans from being opressed and ofcourse he was assasinated. You could come up with many examples. All of the great people are killed or scorned upon, it's only after their dead that we realize they were great. I think that goes to show that Karma might not be true.
