a clue what he was talking about. If he knew Christ ---he would have been a Christian.

there not bad for you unless you abuse them, they can allow you to see through the constructs of society and open your mind to itself. only last 4-6 hours and its an experience only to be grasped once tried. you only live once why not alter your perception you can learn so much about yourself

I'm 17, and I really want to learn Spanish, French, and maybe even Mandarin (of course, not within a short time frame!). I have taken two years of Spanish in high school, but upper division Spanish had been cancelled by the time I could have taken it. Admittedly, it was not my best subject, as idioms and sentence structure (like "lo que") had me baffled. I can understand written Spanish fairly decently, with the exception of knowing what a few words translate to.

But I keep hearing that after a young age (way before age 17), the brain is less capable of really learning foreign languages.

I want to learn out of necessity, and out of a desire to communicate with more people around the world, but is it too late to re-learn and expand my knowledge of Spanish (and learn the other mentioned languages)?

We aren't aloud to start a caucasion club at our school but yet they have an asian, latino & africanamerican clubs.
We wouldn't discriminate and we let anyone into our club.

There are many religions that I don't agree with, but I don't spend all my time seeking out and reading books that supposedly "discredit" them, just so I can feel smug about it.

For me, it's that dang Head On commercial with the stuff you rub on your head. It annoys me so much, I probably need the stuff. Hmmmm....maybe that's their point.

I love most of the Budweiser commercials, especially the horses playing football.

OK, your town wants to raise some money. You're asked to be in the calendar. If you know the movie, you know what I mean. Male or female, would you go for it?

Have you tried comparing your life to the Beatitudes?

Poor in Spirit – not prideful – Humble before God and neighbors

Mourners who long to be comforted by the Holy Spirit

Meek – steadfast in following Christ – unshaken in your faith – yet not boastful in your ability to follow Christ.

Hunger and Thirst after righteousness – a desire for truth and to do good continually

Merciful – kind in your rebukes of others – forgiving all (not to the point of robbing justice)

Pure in heart – Man/woman of your word –chaste – intending to do good always

Peacemaker – Kind in word and deed – shunning contention (not shunning competition)

Calm in the face of persecution and revilings

I see that I have a lot to work on myself.

BTW I am Mormon and I consider myself Christian trying to become Christ-like

I don't understand how American young people can be brainwashed to lose their will and turn into "Hate Bombs".
They seems to abuse "Jesus" and turn him into "American Osama". If we believe that Jesus is the great savior,we should also believe that he doesn't need any "Army" to save or defend him.
Same ideology, different religion.
These people are an "insult" to God,to our Legal system, Democracy and Constitution.
Are these people suggesting we abolish our Legal System, create a Christian "Sheriah" let them run our Country and our lives?
Why not? do as the Iranian :Khomeny" did.
We all should know that "True God" will never ask us to hate or harm anyone,but the Satan will.
We need to defend our Churches against "Ungodly trends"
and let them preach love and human compassion for all Gods'children, and let the politicians do the politics.

I think its depressing. What happened to make our culture so obsessed with youth? It's gotten to the point where people inject neurotoxins in their face tissue to look younger. How insane is that?

Why i ask this is because when Christians talk about God they talk about someone that is an entity and refer to God as a him.
Everyone has a different point of view of what God is so maybe it is time we should find a different word for God to get away from the traditional meanings of God?
