Over the past year I have seen so many black women and white men together. For years, many white men have thought of black women as ugly but all of a sudden they seem to be understanding how fine they are.
As a black man, I have always gone for black women as they generally are prettier, more direct, have curvier figures and are amazing in bed - in my humble opinion.
I must admit to getting a bit jealous when I see a white guy with a really hot sister. Is this how white men used to feel when black men used to date their women?
Black women used to be more loyal to black men but it seems that they are starting to find white men more attractive.
Are these statements true or am I just paranoid

Settlement represents Church’s largest payout in sexual abuse scandal on account of sexual abuse by catholic church.
LOS ANGELES - The nation’s largest Catholic archdiocese will settle its clergy sex abuse cases for at least $600 million, by far the largest payout in the church’s sexual abuse scandal, The Associated Press learned Saturday.
Attorneys for the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Los Angeles and the plaintiffs will release a statement Sunday morning and hold a news conference Monday, said Ray Boucher, the lead plaintiff’s attorney.
An anonymous source with knowledge of the deal placed its value at $660 million, by far the largest payout in the church’s sexual abuse scandal. The amount exceeded earlier reports from sources that the settlement would be between $600 million and $650 million — $1.2 million and $1.3 million per plaintiff.

Jesus said if you have seen me, then you have seen the father. Another verse says that Jesus Christ is the father. If God is the father, then how can anyone say no verse in the bible claims that Jesus was God?

Good grief. A religious woman came to my house and insisted we read her bible She open and passed the book to me to start reading I begun reading this part
"Moses numbered them according to the word of the Lord" he was told to count "every male from a month old and upward." Women and girls didn't count as persons. 3:15-16
If a man suspects his wife of being unfaithful, he reports it to the priest. The priest then makes her drink some "bitter water." If she is guilty, the water makes her thigh rot and her belly swell. In any case, "the man shall be guiltless from iniquity, 5:11-31
Miriam and Aaron criticize Moses for marrying an Ethiopian woman and thus breaking the law of God. But God makes it clear that his rules don't apply to his favorites, and he strikes------------------------
Do you like Moses because of Charlton Heston? BUT the Moses of the bible was a cruel chauvintic pig. For him you are nothing a non person and remember he is God favourite His Pal. !!! ????

like, "why do Catholics pray to Mary and the Saints", or "why do Catholics worship Mary and the Saints", when those questions have been answered over and over.

also, why do Bible-fundamentalists even care about what Catholics think? why can't they just mind their own business?

In 1996, Pope Benedict, then Cardinal Ratzinger , branded rock music an "instrument of the Devil" and urged young people not to listen to it for fear of endangering their souls.

Pope Benedict, then head of the modern successor to the Inquisition, said there were "diabolical and satanic messages" in much of today's heavy metal music. But he also warned the young against the "subliminal" satanic influence to be found in songs by such groups as the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, Queen, Led Zeppelin and the Eagles.

I decided to play Peaceful Easy Feeling by the Eagles backwards to find out.

You can imagine how upset I was when I heard the words, repeated over and over in the chorus, "Lactate into my hubcap Sir Jeffrey".

Isn't it time we listened to the Church and stopped this filth being sold to our children?

Count how many times you hear the name "Joseph Smith". Then do the same for "Jesus Christ".

Report back the numbers, please.

Why does the father give the daughter away? Its not like he owns her. And by doing that, is that saying the husband owns the wife? Thats not right either. Why is it that many feel that men are dominant?

According to the christian religion, god is omnipotent. Meaning he is capable of ANYTHING. Bearing this in mind, how is it that this all powerful being is only capable of coming up with a plan of salvation that involves the murder of his own son AND the condemnation of billions of his own creations (Children in essence)?
Was he not capable of coming up with a more merciful win win plan?
Or is it that he merely CHOOSES to destroy?

Is it,
A: A sadistic tendancy?
B: A lack of capability?
C: Something tht I havent thought of? (If so, plz enlighten me.)
