Does anybody else notice this, besides me?
It seems like we are a red and blue society.
Examples:
Red: Republicans, Coke, Bloods gang, GMC
Target.
Blue: Democrats, Pepsi, Crips gang, Ford
Wal-Mart

Can anybody think of anything else?

Muslims why is it that in the arab world, mostly in iraq, afghanistan or pakistan, there are sucide bombers every day?
Because if i were a muslim i would never think of commiting sucide and killing my brothers for no reason. Why would an iraqi walk into a market or public place a kill his muslim brothers through sucide bombing and what impression are they trying to give everyone about islam?? If i belong to a particular group nothing will make me betray or kill a member of my group instead i will defend it. If you think closely about this it seems like almost everyone in the iraqi world wants to commit a sucide bombing because its not just the extremists that are doing these its also the normal people. Why on earth do you kill yourselves????

I enjoy watching and listening to political talk shows, but sometimes I start to feel hate towards non-chrisitians who don't believe the way I do. I don't like feeling that way. It makes me wonder how involved Christians should be in politics. Should Chrsitians focus more on leading people to Christ on an individual manner? Is it ok to use politics to further Christianity? How do you think Jesus would feel?

I did not grow up in England so I have not experienced this before. When at work, smoking is forbidden in the work area, but only managers and supervisors smoke there. When I complained I was accused of 'grassing them up' In the housing estate no motor vehicles allowed but black peoples scooters allowed but mine towed away because manager is black or his friends so blind eye turned. in AA Meeting I was told nosmoking but they even gave tobaccoand permitted smoking to friend or person theys
scared of, even tho someone complained. If I said anything I would be 'grassing them up' What is this unfair behaviour?

before me there was no god formed, now shall there be after me.
11. I even I am the lord and besides me there is no savior.
So how can Jesus save you if God said only he can and all you need for redemption is to ask him?

Even before we look into its extremely dubious origins.
Surely god cannot have two contrasting opinions. If this were the case he'd have to be incorrect on one of them.

Has modern day thinking erased all of your tribal day dreaming and spiritual touch with "the other side"? Have you been brainwashed that it is totally insane and evil to connect with the spirits of the dead and that there is no healthy way to do this?

She quoted Andrew Carnegie, the American tycoon, as saying that a lady should:

1 never give her opinion
2 play dumb
3 always wear white gloves

I have never been able to catch on to this set. Do you think this is a good thing or a bad thing?

why is all the angelic miss-representation? if the angels are transparent with no reproductory organs, does god just whip them up with the wave of a hand?

what happens if they break rules and are kicked out of heaven, ? their punishment be an existence w/o sexual pleasures and kids?
some readings states that various angels gave up their heavely rights to be with the beautifully and sexy earth females and in the case of females males. are they just lying tales?

why do all the books show them to be european? and if thery are caucazoids/european, are europeans not of the earth?

no doubt there has been a series of mal information in our historical evolution. now that we know how things was supposed to be.
why don't society w/o using them as reference, begin burning all the existing books relating to the mal information of our past and substitute them with new writings. i think if they can do that, all the garbage and the braught forward crap would fade to obscurity/nothing.

... of value?

They each teach not to murder.

They each teach not to steal.

They each teach not to bear enmity against their peaceful neighbour.

I think all can agree these are worthy truths we'd teach children.

Is it the truth of our religion we fight over, or the lust for ownership over land and resources and profits? Do we not lust so greedily we'll even pull our gods into the fray to stand in judgment of the righteousness of our claim?

Does it not then become a religious squabble? Whose God is bigger, better, older, more grander than the others? Whose God has a greater claim to judge the matter: mine or yours?

And so it becomes insanity. For now we mere mortals are judging the grandeur of gods.

My wife, when she was alive, may not have appealed to any of you. But in my eyes, my wife was the grandest of them all.

Need I berate you for not agreeing with me, when you think -your- spouse is the grandest one of all?

I'm just asking OK?
Would execution of the most serious offenders (and, may I add, the most costly to keep locked up) help to relieve prison overcrowding and save us a few quid in the UK?

Some criminals cannot be rehabilitated (Sicko Murderers -kiddie fiddlers - life means life etc) so why do we keep them?

The £100,000s per year per prisoner to keep them in solitary could be spent elsewhere saving lives!

With all the differences of beliefs, among Christians.
Can YOU think of some of the teachings that would/
could show us in agreement?
What r some of the things that show we r in union in thought,
Or purpose?
i.e.....
The Christ came n died for our sins.
The Father in heaven dispatched him.
We all want to be safe, from violence.
We all want peace.
Food & shelter for ourselves and family.
None of us wants to die.
