There is a man that keeps eating my sister's lunch at work, because he gives the excuse that he thought it was left over from a luncheon. How would you go about handling this situation? The containers are clearly marked with her name, too...but that doesn't seem to discourage him!

Two weeks ago, my family all went out for a big dinner to celebrate a 30th wedding anniversary.
My husband's elderly grandmother is staying with us for a while, until we can find a nice care facility for her (she needs the medical care). Anyway, this lady is in her 80's and suffers terribly from diabetic foot infections, and she wears kind of a bootie/foam shoe as she cannot wear normal footwear. The maitre'd and then the manager both refused to let her in -it's kind of a ritzy place-because she wasn't wearing 'proper attire'! We literally had to turn around and take the poor thing home! I was so mad, and did get a little verbal with the manager (we explained why she couldn't wear shoes), he was rude first, but did I over react? Also, would you follow this up with a letter of complaint?

If there were white universities, it'd be deemed racial aggression. I'm not trying to start an argument here, I really wonder why. It's ludicrous. We fight to eliminate segregation yet we have black history month, ebony magazine, black universities. Yet nowhere will you find Caucasian magazine, White history month, or white universities.

the clouds of our consciousness that he is living on earth more firmly that if he came as one person? And that by Him living within us, we can bring Heaven to Earth rather than watch it be destroyed or escape from it?

God defined as the one in the OT. The Abraham and Job God.

Science, represented by the men who developed the atomic bomb. The ones who acknowledged that, if they tested their brainchild, it might set fire to the atmosphere of the planet earth.

But tested it anyway.

Job got rid of his sores.
Abraham's kid got a reprieve.
The burst at the Trinity Site didn't turn the earth into a small star.

I'd put them about equal for desirability and trustworthiness.

A bright future? I'll hunker down wish humanity the best of a bad bargain.

How about you?

only to have it roll back down each time he gets it to the top?
Even if you haven't read Camus' thoughts on him, do you think that he represents only frustration, or can there be purpose and value in his actions, even when doomed to frustration?

you can be standing somewhere and you end up somewhere else and you believe that you actually belonged there. Or someone came new and you believed that they belonged there?

''these six things the LORD hates, yes, seven are an abomination to Him:'' proverbs 6:16 (nkjv)

is there some kind of poetic meaning that i'm not catching here? why would solomon write it that way, mentioning ''six,'' before ''seven''? i just answered a question about the meaning of proverbs 6, and it made me think of this. i've always wondered about it. there's at least one other passage in the book of proverbs (though i can't think of which one it is right now) that starts out the same way. any thoughts?

That would be hysterical, they would have no clue what's happening.

Then again, they'd probably have all of our accounts deleted.

Why does the pope in rome not sell off all the vast wealth from the Vatican city and use the money to help others? Isnt this what "God" would do? Or do you feel that if Jesus Christ returned to earth tomorrow, he'd be quite happy to live in luxury and Grandeur like the pope et al are doing now?

Ok, I'm not racist, but if we elect Obama as president, him being African-American wouldn't he give the African-Americans and Hispanics the benifit of the doubt most times. Let's be real here, African-Americans and Hispanics get in the most trouble around here, I live in New Orleans and everytime, i turn on the TV, there's another black o black crime.

I'm not racist I'm Hispanic, and am with a African American myself.

Watch the mountain turn to dust and blow away.

Everyone we’ve got to get together.
Love’s the only thing that matters anyhow
And the beauty of life can only survive
If we love one another.


Yesterday my friends were marchin’ out to war, oh, yeah
Listen now, we still are marchin’ evermore,
No, he ain’t qualified, only God has that right
To decide who’s to live and die.

Watch the mountain turn to dust and blow away, oh, Lord
You know there’s got to be a better way
And the old masquerade is a no-show parade
Marchin’ through the ruins of time
To save us, He gave us

Sweet wine
So very fine

if we learn to love one another,
and hate those whose time has come.

It surprises me that people look at all that has unfolded since the beginning the year, and even before that. This bridge collapse was the latest harbinger of things to come. All of these engineers and scientists are scratching their heads trying to come up with an explanation, but no one blames God.

Anyone here have resources that could help me trace a family name back to Charlemange? I have been unable to trace it directly from Charlemange so I was wondering if I could work backwards?

So many athiests out there today who really have no clue about what Athiesm is. Where do we draw the line? These people have been hurting our perception by the public for years, by being completely ignorant to what they actually beleive.

How does a Christian defend his relegion without knowledge of Christianity?

Its the same with Atheism. How do you defend your right to not follow something you don't beleive when you don't even know what your trying to say.

People do not take athiests seriously because of foolish children and young adults who use it as an excuse to get out of church and temple.

Where do we draw the line and say "Listen, get your facts straight before saying that you are atheist."

Why is it that many Muslims are mislead by shiia. The Shiia claim the split from Muslims came at the time of Prophet Muhammeds(SAW) death. When it did not happen or become a problem till Othmans death. Why is it so many Muslims do not know the real history of Islam but say what the shiia want. Please I beg you to learn Islamic History and get the facts straight. Learn who Abdulla Bin Sab'a is and find the truth..
