have the benefit of surprise and would shoot the owner if he reached for a gun. None of the answers that I got on the internet gave me reason to think otherwise.
However, I was talking to a friend today, and he suggested there is a battle going on between rich and poor in the United States. He says that when a poor criminal enters the house of a richer person, the criminal is usually on drugs and is going to shoot the house owner even the house owner does not own a gun.
Now that makes more sense than any replies that I received on the internet. If you are going to be shot anyway, you might as well have a gun and maybe you will be lucky enough to get the drop on the intruder sometimes
I am disappointed that I didn't get a single sensible answer on Yahoo answers, and had to turn to someone else.
But I still need further convincing. Is this the way it is?Are most intruding criminals apt to be poor people hopped up on drugs
and determined to shoot you even if you do not have a gun?

There are these guys that sit with me at lunch and just about every girl that gets up to dump their tray they have to comment on their butts or boobs or both. It is very aggravating and I try to tell them they will get in a fight with one of there boyfriends if they find out. What should I do to stop them?

"Once I was lost; but now I am found." Without the mercies and grace of God I would be like a small duck in a terrible rain storm, getting beat to death by the huge rain drops; that fell upon my tender head. Thank you God for giving your only begotten son; so I can live and tell others of your mercy and grace; that you give so freely!

It makes sense to me for the terminally ill to be forced into treatments that may help people in the future. Not if it takes away from their comfort...only if it is a minor inconvenience. It could be good fo them and the future of our society.

And yes, this has something to do with R&S. September 19th, Talk Like a Pirate Day, is a Holy Day for Flying Spaghetti Monster worshiping Pastafarians like myself. I want to keep it sacred this year by speaking only as the Divine Beings (pirates) speak.

For instance, instead of "hi" or "hello", I should say "Ahoy, me hearty!" Does anyone here have any more suggestions?

Matt. 26:39, RS: “Going a little farther he [Jesus Christ] fell on his face and prayed, ‘My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as thou wilt.’” (If the Father and the Son were not distinct individuals, such a prayer would have been meaningless. Jesus would have been praying to himself, and his will would of necessity have been the Father’s will.)

John 8:17, 18, RS: “[Jesus answered the Jewish Pharisees:] In your law it is written that the testimony of two men is true; I bear witness to myself, and the Father who sent me bears witness to me.” (So, Jesus definitely spoke of himself as being an individual separate and distinct from the Father.) See also pages 197, 198, under “Jehovah.”

As things stand, there's no legal impediment to terrorists tying the knot (or unwrapping the turban or however they celebrate weddings). But isn't terrorist marriage even more dangerous than gay marriage? -- after all, terrorists can breed.

I'm just sayin'.

What is this to you as a believer? Each day we follow the Lamb wherever He may lead us... Where did the Lamb go to? He died for us on the Cross. Yes:) for you and I as believers and sinners. But my real question is this. How does this matter of living a crucified life in Christ Jesus impact upon you day to day life? On your choices, tastes,preferences and dicisions. Do we truly know what it means to live in such a way? For those of us who have mercifully passed through the winepress, how can we encourage those who are being lead this way by the Lord. To live in the shadow of the Cross.. and even better yet.. to come OUT of all these experiences like our Lord did in RESURRECTION!

Share in any way, whereever you are at... share and encourage oneanother...

I wanted to thank the police officers and firemen at my local fire station. But since people always make fun of police for eating doughnuts would they take it badly if I brought them some? I'm not sure they would think I'm mocking them since I'm just a 16 year old girl but do you have any suggestions for other edible gifts I can give? Cupcakes seem to kiddie to me so..Help?

Not just the Assyrian Christians, but the Christians who fled Dora also.

Also there is a web site of the Assyrians at http://www.assyrianchristians.com .

I have been praying for religious freedom for the Christians in Iraq for a long time, now there is more hope for them than ever. And because the US is helping Iraq.

I answered a question, (the question was deleted, it was something about calling Priests pedophiles,) not by my doing, and I told the person I was going to become a Priest and he call me a fag

Why? Not all Priests have molested a child and that person does not know me, I love children and I would not hurt them, I am a teacher and children are a gift from God, I felt insulted by this persons accusation

Why do people like to insult someone because of what they believe in?

How do you feel when people say those words to you? What do you think are their intentions? How do you respond? What type of intentions do you have when you respond?

Are these words just a simple pat "what's up"?
