I understand that they're providing a service, but that is the whole job...they are getting paid to make the coffee and put it on the counter and call your name out. They get an hourly wage for this don't they?

I get these emails, many of them daily updating me to the latest and earliest reported news not only in America but worldwide from the Associate Press. Here is the latest:

"President Bush has vetoed a bill expanding a children's health insurance program, setting up an override battle with Congress"

What does Psalms 145: 3 - 4 tell us?
------------
Do not put YOUR trust in nobles,
Nor in the son of earthling man, to whom no salvation belongs.

His spirit goes out, he goes back to his ground;
In that day his thoughts do perish.

Earthly nobles = government, worldly authorities.

So dumb ole Bush would rather continue funding a deadly, most useless war having just poured another $78Billion into it recently, but he would veto proper insurance and health care for the children of even our own country?

Bush is a bigoted tyrant and I know God will take him out as take out all worldly gubmints at Armageddon. I despise these men who call themselves "gubmint leaders"! Slobs!

I am not a believer of evolution but I feel that in order to be more educated on what it is I feel I need to read what Darwin actually wrote and said. I do admit I am just repeating what I have been told and read from critics of Darwin and evolution. How many of you that support evolution have read "Origin of Species: By Means of Natural Selection"? Did you think it was an informative and accurate book?

I recently got a book from the library (and shame on me for not remembering the title) that had a great interpretation of how the Sabbats relate to your every day life. Like one is a time for "planting the seeds" of whatever we need to change in our lives, one is for reflection on the past year, one is for "harvesting" the benefits of the "seeds" we planted earlier.

Has anyone read this book or do you know what I'm talking about? It had something like that for every Sabbat, and I was really excited about it, but I had returned the book without writing it down.

Many many thanks,
and Blessed Be.

A teacher said this?? FYI : I am brown not white or black I think most people will agree. My family today was either born in MX or USA. I haved a mixed bloodline just like a lot of people or should i say most. I have french/Spanish/Aztec..My great-great grandfather was french and from my other side of the family another was full spanish, but all lived in MX I might even have some german blood accordingly to my grandmother, but we dont know for sure yet..I have been trying to trace my family roots so I always ask questions and research when i go to MX. Either way in my family wether we look completely white, are light skinned, or have dark brown skin color we still consider us brown or mexican..

Okay, so im white. I hang out with the Mexican/Spanish speaking people all day long. My best friend is Mexican. Today in one of my classes the gym teacher told my best friend to stop speaking Spanish. Because she didnt know if my best friend was talking about her. I told her that its his lang. and he is allowed to speak Spanish. The teacher told me that she dosent want them speaking Spanish because she dont know if they are talking about her. I droped it...then she came up to my best friend and tried to plead her case. I jumped into the convo. and told her what she said was wrong and if she wants to know what the Spanish speaking kids are saying then she needs to learn some Spanish. Now when I ask my friends if what she said was right, the Spanish speakers so no. but other people like my white friends will say yes she is right because they came to America and they should speak out lang. I just dont see why we have the opportunity to learn a language and some people look at it like English is the only lang. we need to know.

ever wonder why Christianity is the most beat-up religion on this site?because people feel threatened by it. what they dont understand is that the God they either hate or dont believe in loves them with His entire being. hmm....but please, dont ask a question just to ridicule a faith. ask if u have serious question so u dont waste others time...

my kids believe(d) in santa. we celebrate yule with a nice family dinner and ritual, then christmas is the time for presents and seeing extended family.

starving children around the world? Even if they aren't christians, I thought god loves children and they are not held responsible (ie. not going to hell if they die)

I read that before Christmas was called Christmas it was a pre-christian pagen holiday but the Christians pre-empted it and named it Christmas. So what was it called before being named that by the Christians?

My husband and I live in an apartment and periodically they have to come in to change the filter in the furnace. I don't know exactly when they came but when I opened the closet door today (where the furnace is) all of my clothes were pushed back and the laundry basket was pushed out of the way, so I know they came already. Then I immediately looked at the dresser next to the closet and noticed my dildo sitting out in plain view. Normally we keep it in our top drawer but my husband was looking for batteries the other day, took them out and obviously didn't put it back in the drawer. To make matters worse, there was a tub of vaseline sitting on the dresser too (totally unrelated to the dildo). I'm so humiliated- I went to pay the rent today and I swear the woman in the office was holding back laughter and I'm so worried about seeing one of the maintenance guys.

What the heck should I do? I'm so mortified ---I already put it back in the drawer.
