yet, I never feel the need to say this a lot,unless convo calls for it. What matters is the character/personality. So, why do people feel the need to bombard others with their "mixed-ness"? Why don't people say "I am a nice human" or something of that nature? Why is it "I'm mixed, I'm mixed"? A-nnoying~

Ok...white people ALWAYS stare at me. Like they're afraid of me. I'm scared of KITTENS for Pete's sake...I am not going to hurt anyone.

Today I was at The Cheesecake Factory and omg all these white people we staring at me like I had squiggly lines all over my face. It was SO rude and they didn't even try to hide it.

WTF? How can I stop these people from feeling like they have the right to RUDELY STARE at me because I'm black?

I'm thinking of smiling and waving at them, but I haven't tried that method yet.

***P.S.***: Please, if you're a white person who thinks that just because a person's black means they're gonna hurt you, could you please GET OVER IT and GET OVER YOURSELF!?? Seriously, no one's even thinking about you until you stare them down!

I mean, even if he was the son of God and everything, isn't this religion and church thing a little bit of overkill?

Today, Al Qaida backed Sunni insurgents murdered 175 fellow Iraqis in four suicide bomb attacks. This, apparently because the victims, the Yazidis, have been declared "anti-Islam" and devil worshippers. Also, they were attacked because a Yazidi teenage girl was stoned to death by her own family back in April for running away with her Muslim boyfriend.

Now you American girls who can't wait to be the first on your block to convert to the passive and peaceful religion of Islam, take note, here.

My question to the peace-loving, friendly Muslims who frequent this forum is: what are the religious tenets which justify these kinds of actions? How can anyone defend a religion which condones things like this? Remember, these were all religiously motivated actions. How do these acts and these groups square with your concept of Islam, in general?

I really don't understand the notion of Faith. Is it really believing in something without proof?

Matthew 7:21 Not everyone saying to me Lord, Lord will enter into the kingdom of the heavens. Then is goes on to say that many who thinks they are right with God he has rejected.
They said they did powerful works in his name. but he said he never knew you. Like the TV evangelists? does he hear their prayers?

What if the whole thing is "human mistranslation"?

I do not do Palmestry but today I looked at the palm of my hand and found that if I traced around the center of my hand, the lines make a distinct picture of an eye, like the one that you have seen in looking into space, the eye picture.

I simply want to understand what is the historical understanding of the eye in the palm of the hand.

Is there a prophecy or Writing in any Order/ Knighthood signifying a definement of the eye in the palm of the hand.

Is there an Egyptian God or Goddess that had this attribute
in legend or in writing?

I understand that this is just lines, however I would really like to know. Thanks to all for your kindness and all your help and knowledge.

Sincerely
Alicia

I offer the following quote from Darwin himself, taken from Darwin's THE ORIGIN OF SPECIES, 6th edition (London: Oxford University Press, 1872, reprinted 1956), p.560.

"There is grandeur in this view of life; with its several powers having been originally breathed by the Creator into a few forms or into one; and that, whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most wonderful and most beautiful have been, and are being evolved."

What kind of "Creator" is he referring to?
