Did anyone see the video of the big muscular white cop manhandling and macing a skinny 15 yr old black girl for breaking curfew.
Didn't he see the total picture? He was totally incompetent. He could not restrain what looked like an 80 lb girl. What would he have done if he were restraining a large man with a gun or a knife?
I thought police long ago were trained to see the total picture. You don't chase someone 100 miles an hour through heavy traffic pursuing someone who parked too close to a fire hydrant.
This big bad white cop manhandled and maced a little black girl for an eternity. She was hysterical. After what seemed liked an eternity, she bit his arm and he emptied a complete can of mace in her face. It was clear his actions were not to defend himself, only to exact vengeance. He could easily have broken her arm. And for what? Because she broke curfew. And now this girl may be traumatized for life. This jerk of a cop is nothing but a big coward

I was always scared of portraits of white jesus as a kid. I have no idea why they creeped out so much...then one day I saw a portrait of black jesus and honestly it wasn't as scary. Then I saw on of black jesus with dreds and it actually felt comforting. I even bought that portrait and hung it in my room for a few years.

Do you like your jesus black or with cream?

Sorry folks, this question is not meant for the Atheists.


I noticed that Atheists mostly come from Christianity and other religions and LEAST from Islam.

Despite this the Atheists denouncing Islam are more famous, more respected and more rewarded & defended by the non-Muslims theists, the world over. e.g. Salman Rushdie,
Taslima Nasrin etc.

My question is " WHY " ?

It angers me quite often when I remember things that I had to put up with on some really bad jobs or situations. On the other hand, I figure that I should just give the world the big finger and laugh, because I made it through life, and did alright, in spite of all the sh*t I was handed.
If I had a glass of wine to raise, I would say, "Here's to all you unfriendly and abusive people that I had to work with on some of the worst jobs that I've ever worked on, and my wish to you all is that you had to spend the rest of your working days on that same crappy job that I left in good time."

I know, I know, I sound a little bitter, but I'm working on it and trying to get over it. Growing up with abuse, then discovering much later in life that I probably had ADHD as a child, still have it I suppose, doesn't make for a life of ease, but I did alright. I'm retired now, and live with my wife in a very close and loving relationship. So that ain't so bad.

I mean everyday I read an article or watch a TV show that says this happened 50000 years ago or that a star millions of light-years away is doing something or a new evidence says that our hominid ancestors 500,000 years ago use to hunt like this.

How do you cope with all the evidence that challenges your beliefs everyday? Do you just somehow isolate yourself from the real world?

will the human mind be able to process everything at such a level that we no longer need bodies to experience reality?

Please don't say "we won't be here" cause of end times or global warming because people have always been saying that the world will end and I guarantee even without bodies people will say it 300 years from now.

Let's go on the premise that human beings are smart enough to survive a gradual rise in ocean levels...maybe by building cities in the sky like the jetsons duh (why do you think they lived in an apt attached to a giant pole, because it was the fashion of the day?). We can also go ahead and assume God doesn't have a hit out on the planet.

Most, if not all, of the guys i know are so SHALLOW. I went to school with them since elementary, and now that i've grown out of my 'ugly duckling' stages [in high school now] they're NICE to me! These guys used to ignore me &act like they didn't know who i was, but now i'm in my junior year of high school and the jerks now treat me like a queen bee. Is this just human nature or are those guys just shallow and mean?!

I'm a naturally polite person, so it's hard for me to ignore them and hold a grudge, but should i just act like they have been nice to me this whole time? They made me feel like an invisible "friend" ...

I recently lixted all the languages I could speak on my Resume and at the interview they told me that I am just bi-lingual and not Multi-lingual. The languages are English Spanish, Ebonics, British, Southern,Canadian, Pig Latin and Double dutch. Why do they only consider the first two valid languages- the rest are languages also. I don't get it.

I am doing a project on Harry Potter and I want to include a part with the references to theology that are in the books.
I can see the Christian references, and I know that there are references to the Torah in the books, but I don't have the personal knowledge to identify what those references are.
If anyone can point me in the right direction, I will be very grateful.
In fact, I will be extremely grateful if anyone can point out ANY theological references, in any of the books.
Thanks in advance :o)

Don't they believe in the power of prayer? Don't they think god wants their church to have the money? Couldn't they just buy one lottery ticket and all pray real hard that it wins? That way, it would be up to god if they get the money or not. Doesn't putting money in the plate circumvent god's will?
