satan is fooling you all and he cares for no one. but himself. he will lie to you and trick you to get your soul in hell. he hates God. even he knows that Jesus is the true God and he hates Him. so he gets all the souls in hell that he can. satan makes evil stuff and sins to look good to you. when it is all sins and evil. he makes it all look good to get your soul. thats why satan uses wicca,witchcraft,lust,drugs,hate,gay,porn,bars,clubs, and all others sins and evil stuff. to get your soul. hes got you so blinded. it is really sad. thats why i witness to the lost and pray for them/ the lost need Jesus. Jesus loves you

anyways do you think these people should be rewarded equally for their hard work?

J: She is a young woman from a big city who is a successful businesswoman working for a public relations company and she is a wealthy businesswoman, she owns a condo overlooking a huge lake and she owns lots of nice clothes, gets to go on nice vacations, owns lots of nice furniture, owns a nice sporty car w/leather interior and she gets to attend to alot of rock concerts.

D: He is a young man from a small town who is an employee at a department store and he has been at his job for 8 years and he only makes $8.50 an hour, he is one of the most dependable employees Shopko has ever had and he is very kind and helpful towards his customers and his co-workers and he gets along well with everybody, plus he has a learning disability, he doesn't have a car and he still lives at home with his parents.



Also which rewards do you like better?

He rides on my shoulder all day and does not make any trouble, so why couldn't I bring him in? In the summer I wear a light weight jacket with a special lined "potty pocket" for him which he uses as needed, so he never leaves a mess or odor anywhere he goes. Plus he's very cute, and kids always like him.

I don't have an issue with Atheists, or any other religious group really, but I've noticed that on R&S there are a lot of Atheists that are just as rude and proselytize just as much as certain other groups do. My question is why is it that I've encountered so many Atheist like that on here, but have never met one in real life that behaves that way? Odd don't you think.

Why does everyone make a big deal about incest? Why is incest wrong? I'm not saying that I practice it personally, but not everyone got here just because of Adam and Eve. Carlos Mencia once joked about about it, but he wasn't necessarily lying...someone had to bone their sister! Someone please explain what the difference between what it talks about in the Bible and what the backward folks do?

I have been taking Spanish for 5 1/2 years. My reading and writing techniques are average. However, my speaking and comprehension in Spanish still needs work!!! I have tried to ask my parents (who are of Haitian) for advice for advice by telling me how quickly they learned to speak English and what techniques did they used. They told me just to keep practicing. However, it is almost 6 years now since I have been studying the language and I still do not see any improvements. Does anyone have any tips for me so that I can improve my fluency in Spanish?

Teen Christians campaign against pop culture
http://www.cnn.com/2007/US/08/22/gw.teen.christians/index.html
From 2006 to 2007, a total of 127,830 people attended the 34 Acquire the Fire rallies, and 71,414 people attended the three BattleCry events held in San Francisco, California; Detroit, Michigan; and Bristow, Virginia, according to Teen Mania

We're fighting for those who don't know they have a voice, that are being manipulated by our pop culture indulging in things that, really, they're not mature enough to be thinking about yet,"

"They're raping virgin teenage America on the sidewalk, and everybody's walking by and acting like everything's OK. And it's just not OK."

I'm missing someone like crazy, and I need my spirits lifted. Any thoughts on how I can get a smile on my face to replace this frown?

I think a raid on this question *might* help. So... calling all VT's with bran muffins (or corndogs, whatever your ammo is). Your mission is to make me smile.

By the way, pirates just don't do it for me...

Okay, so here's the deal.

My boss and I have to write text that goes on a major website. He had pitched the idea of using the phrase "just desserts," but I had no idea what it meant (I had never heard of the term before in my life).

I began taking a poll with coworkers, and it seemed that slightly more people knew what it meant than didn't. At first, I guessed it was an age thing/phrase used at an earlier time (I am 24, my boss is mid-thirties), but then figured it might be a regional thing (I'm from Texas, he's lived in California for over 10 years).

So answer me this question: Have you heard the term "just desserts," and if you have, where did you hear it, where are you from, and how old are you?

Thanks!

On a visit to preach in Connecticut in 2001, evangelist Luis Palau gave this qoute to Adam Barnes of the New York Times:

"New England is a tough place. They tend to keep to themselves. Atheism, or at least agnosticism, has a tremendous foothold here. In New England, when you say 'Christian' they think 'those maniacs on the right'. I feel a challenge in Connecticut."

I find his statement about Connecticut interesting as according to a Polis Center pie chart done in the same year, Connecticut at that time was 62.6% Catholic with the next largest group at 8% was termed as Historically African American Protestant.

Please share your thoughts on the quote.

i have noticed many people are offended when asked what their ethinicity is. I do understand some don't want to be judged by their race, but by their person. But what kind of person are you without an ethinic backround or the history of your ancestors? I love when people ask me my nationality because it sets me apart from many other people. Im still an American, but im more than that. Im a Pacific Islander-American. I like that America is the melting pot of various races. And why arent we proud to say that?

Prominent creation scientist Em Adjineri (say it out loud) has discovered a fatal flaw in the theory of evolution. After extensive research, she has concluded that evolution cannot explain pancakes.

Pancakes have no defense mechanisms, and cannot run away from anything. Pancakes could not possibly have evolved, because they would have quickly gone extinct. No fossils of a transitional pancake have ever been found, despite archaeology's extensive attempts to locate one.

This proves that pancakes were intelligently designed by God so that we would have something to eat with maple syrup. It is through God's Divine Glory that we can have a short stack in the morning.
