Everybody says I am lazy but the pub is a ten min walk from my place!! I wish they would all get of my back. I had a full time time job for 2 weeks last year for flips sake!

I am going to get married here on July 20th and my gf is Catholic and I am non religious. She wants to attend Catholic marriage classes after the wedding so the church will recognize the marriage and bless it. I thought it was only a 1 day class but I found out it is 8 weeks!?!?!?! I am not religious and I care nothing for religion as I think the world would be better off without it and believe church's really only want money. Now I dont care that she is religious and I do not say anything for it. I just ask she does not try to talk me into church or ever expect me to go as it will not work.

But what do these classes involve? And is it filled with a bunch of crap about why I should become Catholic? I mean dont get me wrong I am not going to just complain to her as I will keep it inside but I really dont care for these classes and I really dont want to go as they are a waste of time on my part.

There`s yet another account of Rasputin`s entanglement with Russia`s royal family on UK TV. I think this time the culprit is Sky.

Fact is when the Americans were making `The Scarlet Empress` with Marlene Dietrich, the Russian ambassador contacted Paramount and bitterly objected to the charade identifying Rasputin as the Empress`s lover.

As a matter of fact it is not Rasputin; but the west seems too obstinate and or antiSemitic to identify the Empress`s lover as one of my own ancestors and one of the Empress`s ministers, Shuvaluf.

The story goes that a child was born of the union with Czarina Elizabeth but because of her father being a Jew and a commoner (despite having been given a peerage) the offspring was marginalised and did not make a royal marriage.

This is why I contend that I am related both to the Romanovs and the Queen, as she is related to the Romanovs.

So why won`t the powers-that-be acknowledge that the real culprit of the misalliance was a court Jew?

Just saw the movie last night. The most disturbing part was the lady who was the Medical Director for that insurance company saying that she caused the death of so many people by denying claims based on technicalities etc...Shame......
No, i dont think Michael Moore showed the WHOLE truth about it all (like the high income tax rate of Canadians to pay for socilaized healthcare) but my goodness- we dump people who cannot pay hospital bills off on the street in front of homeless shelters on skid row?!?!?! .....And how is that $50 million for the volunteers that worked at ground zero being allocated??? The people in the movie didnt see a dime of it and they were clearly in need...And WTF? Prisoners of war- the same people who want all Americans dead (AND tried to kill a significant amount of us on 9/11)- are getting "top notch" medical treatment at Guatanamo Bay??? Thats just messed up! Your thoughts?

Hello,

My name is Kouassi Aya Florence and I am Ivorian; I was born in 24 th Mars 1990. I live of course in Côte d'Ivoire . I write to you so that you can understand and make comprehensible in the whole world the consequences of a war. I am the elder one of a family today in the process of disappearance. My parents, my brothers and my grand parents died during the war which has occurred in Ivory Coast in 2002. By the grace of God, my small sister and i remained in life; we survived several tests which are far from being easy to support until today. My father was currently a fanatic of the political party to the capacity; at the beginning of the war some people were gone at our home one night and took along our two parents and my two brothers. My mother at the time of the intrusion of the murderers had the idea to hide us, my small sister and i, at the bottom of an old case out of wooden in the back court of our house. We thus remained lying during several hours before leaving. The house was empty; more nobody. We thus remained locked up; the hunger clutched us without forgetting thirst, because there was neither water nor electricity. The shootings of the shells and the kalachnikov continued to resound outside. Until today, we do not know where our parents and our brothers are. Despite everything this misfortune, we succeeded in surviving and I believe well that it is by the grace of God. Today my small sister and i are confronted with enormous social and humane difficulties.
We lived at a woman who had collected us and had lodged us in 2003; but the everyday life with the latter was far from being pink as opposed to what it had presented to us at the beginning. We managed to eat with difficulty and we were confronted with several drudgeries. We slept late and we awoke early the morning to make the detergent, the crockery, to clean the house. With this type of slavery of the third millennium we complained near the police force, but that had not been favourable for us; quite to the contrary the things did nothing but worsen. I was delivered to the prostitution and the vice; the woman made me sleep with men in order to give us to eat only the evenings and she made me take drugs in order to resist the pains, tiredness and the sleep.

It was horrible!!!

It was necessary to subject to the whims these people to gain only bread or water for our daily toilet. We thus fled one day, to take refuge in a church. Pasteur had accommodated us with difficulty, but finally accepted us. But the problem is that Pasteur is seriously sick and is closed to death. Interned in a hospital for now two months, he has not eaten any more; he does not hear any more and is almost blind. His wife is all the time with him and show us times to be at the base of the misfortune of her husband. She treats us even of witch. My small sister is sick and I do not have the means of making it look after. Our benefactor is with the anguish and cannot come to our help. Some times it is a brother of the church which gives us coins in order to buy to eat; because his-self being in misery, he makes the effort help us. But this help proves almost null. Sometimes, I start to beg near faithful or other persons in charge for the church to have coins only to buy food. But they are reticent and sometimes look at me with an air of dislike. I have sometime asked to work like nanny or maidservant; I did not have any favourable continuation.

The sky falls down our heads. We are perhaps cursed; at all events that formed part of our destiny. I only find myself with my sister without support.
In the hunger, the suffering and the disease. I thus launch this message so that the people who are likely to help me by some manners that they are make it. I thus launch a message of help to all those who will be able to read this message.

Help us to leave there, living a normal life. My small sister is sick and I do not want to lose her. She is my only family which remains to me. I do not know with whom to entrust my future; I give it between the hands of God and yours. I beg you.

Have pity! Give us chance to be able one day to find the joy in life. We do not have anybody any more towards whom to turn.

I await your response impatiently and that God blesses you abundantly!!

hey dears.,

as a muslim i believe that there is just one God ,but you christians believe in a lot of things which does not exist in your Bible .Anyway,it's ok .Moreover ,if we scrutinize the whole bible ,we ll never find any verse where the prophet Jesus says i'm God .All christian doctrine doesn't exist in their Book.Well, i know that you believe firmly the Jesus is God that is fine,so let get to practice instead of theory .And here is a verse by the prophet Jesus where he says the when ever 2 persons gathers in his name and ask for something ,then it happened immediately;and here is the verse it is in (matthew 18:19,20):Again, (amen,) I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything for which they are to pray, it shall be granted to them by my heavenly Father. For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them." . so plz try to call him and ask him to appear to you .and now i tell you that he ll never appear to you .

why do men and women keep putting each other down. just because some men or women do something bad does not mean that every man or woman is the same. all i'm asking is that if you are going to give out about certain men or women please specify rather than involving all men and women as believe it or not their are decent people in the world. plus remember that we're all human so we all make mistakes.

may i add that there is no excuse for the mistakes you have done there may be reason for doing it but no excuse so just take responsibility for your own mistakes and stop turning it into a men vs women fight.

To pick on others. Weather it be someone that studders or someone that is deaf or whatnot. No matter where these people go, there's always someone wanting to pick on them. Must make 'em feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

Seriously. I came home from watching the movie (Which was awsome by the way) and one of my neighbors who is a little too religious to be mentally fit started going on about how the Transformers are manifestations of the Devil meant to lure people to sin.

Now this was the strangest thing I've ever heard. First off it's a movie. Second, the Heroes in the movie show more courage than anyone I've seen show in real life. What gives?

I've talked to people of many religions. Take Baptists for instance (not picking on you, sorry), I have yet to find two Baptists that believe the same things. I haven't talked to many Catholics, but they seem confused about what they believe. I just think that if you are in a certain religion, that all the members should believe the same thing. What do you think?

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AuPvwX34U88MhXRoJZbDOZTd7BR.?qid=20070706072223AAgYWM5

Then does this mean that in being naked, the state of which they were first ashamed when they ate the fruit, was the first act of evil?

And does this mean that God created them to do something evil even though they could not know about it? Had they never eaten, would they have continued naked forever, doing something shameful without a concept of shame?
