Let's make this a better environment.
How? You may ask...

Well, there's a "thumb up" option for a reason, it really uplifts a person's spirit :)

I've seen questions where the first answer gets 50+ thumbs down, it's ridiculous!

Let's be a bit nicer around these bouts. :0

I sometimes feel that America--the US is so racially charged it's like a bomb ready to go off and blow your great nation apart. It was (and still very much is) black vs white..and now everyone vs mexican. Before that it was Native Americans against Europeans. What I really don't understand is how the people that came over from Europe and just took over the land can now say that it isn't right for someone else to do the same? It was never right for anybody to do that..but surely we have learned to be tolerant of others..or have we? I don't mean to sound like I don't think the US is a great place...but I really worry about the rampant racism that is so obvious on these sites. Is that the way it is in reality? Or am I just picking up all this racial rhetoric because of the sites that I am on? Racist remarks are everywhere on here. Why? Aren't most of us beyond that now? Please this is a serious question. I am not trying to insult anyone.

Both? What about email? Should I email the letter? Should I just call her? I have the letter ready. It's going to be awkward. She knows I don't like her and she's going to think I'm doing this to be spiteful, but I'm not. I swear!

I can see Muslim women who have never known anything else, but how about the ones who are familiar with the rights and priviliges of modern western women? Do they honestly believe their religion is out for thier best benefit and interest?

you are always blaming religion for the problems of the world yet Islam's manifest is that it is a religion of peace.
Why are you against peace?

I have spent the better part of 20 yrs looking for this answer. our origins as a species to no avail. Evolution was refuted by darwin himself, and their are way to many missing links by sciences standards to say we did come from apes. As for the Creation, c'mon let's get real no man with a white beard and moustache appeared from heaven and created us. That's just plain rubbish. I have a belief in GOD and the MAN known as Jesus and have a great respect for his and the prophets teachings, but God is More of an elightened awareness to me than a being. Jesus just had more openness to God(universe) than most of us. If we don't know who we are or where we came from positively how do we really expect to know where we as a great race are going. I'll keep looking, that's what I promised in my prayers, but if anyone can point me in the right direction please feel free. I am open with no prejudice to any suggestions as long as it doesn't involve hurting me, or someone else, ok. Now... Let it rip

I have been searching the internet for a site that offers a list of magical/craft names but nothing really gives you a list. I know that we are given our name by the Great Divine ... but I just want to find the right one. Blessed Be.

In my family all of the men have commited adultry, father,uncles,brothers cousins.ALL! I was afraid it was a black man thing ( cause I hadn't seen any faithful Black men growing up)so I married outside my race to a christian youth leader. He commited adultry.

p.s. Most of the time they don't know why they did it( including my husband) and none of them wanted a divorce when the truth came out. I have more questions coming.

Not being facetious, but I'm having trouble understanding why Catholics adhere to a literal interpretation in Luke 22:19 of "this is my body", when Christ distributed the elements of the last supper. I'd like to hear a good explanation of this belief that the elements literally transformed, since so much of Christ's teaching was symbolic, I don't understand why this can't be interpreted as a representation, not an actual transformation.

If Catholics are to take the literal meaning of His words, then would they also have to abide by Matt.5.29? If your right eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away. For it is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body be thrown into hell?

(I'm interested to learn more about why Catholics practice this particular teaching. I hope I didn't offend with this question, as this wasn't my intention. Rather I'm just interested in learning.)

Thanks.
