O Lord Please Don't Burn Us

O Lord, please don't burn us.
Don't grill or toast Your flock.
Don't put us on the barbecue
Or simmer us in stock.
Don't braise or bake or boil us
Or stir-fry us in a wok.
Oh, please don't lightly poach us
Or baste us with hot fat.
Don't fricassee or roast us
Or boil us in a vat,
And please don't stick Thy servants, Lord,
In a Rotissomat.

An insurance agent explained the high cost of health care by saying (more or less) ...
" As medicine has advanced, we're spending more - lots more. Most of it is on babies born seriously premature, and people in the last five years of their life. People that would have died within months, are now living for five, ten, fifteen years - with massive medical interventions, at massive costs. Health costs in the US last year, according to Consumer Reports, were $7,000 per capita."

I don't feel sorry for the insurance companies. They are making tidy profits. As a pre-Medicare retiree, I pay $5,000 per year in health insurance premiums plus co-pays on everything from lab work to doctor's office visits. I'm spending about $7,000 a year out of my own pocket. I guess I could save the insurance company lots of money if I die before they have to fork out payments for cancer treatment or a heart surgery. Grrrrrrrr!

What is your opinion of health insurance in the USA?

This is a response I got from a good friend after I told him that his actions may lead him to the devil.

Why would Christ permit his Church (the dignity of the individual human being) to be hijacked by Constantine and these incompetents? Why would he allow Monica Lewinsky, the Clintons, Gore, Bill Daley (Gore's campaign manager in 2000) and the Supreme Court to create the Iraq fiasco?

I'm doing a little a-head-of-time Christmas shopping. I need an idea of what to get a guy who I am just good friends with. I don't want to get him something to formal but not to casual. We are just friends so I don't want it to look like anything more. Please leave me an IDEA!!!

yesterday, i read a question about the movie jesus camp. the asker was puzzled by why people were so shocked by the documentary. according to her, she couldn't see anything which she considered appalling about the people in the movie. below is a direct quote from jesus camp. what are your thoughts about it?

"It's no wonder, with that kind of intense training and discipling, that those young people are ready to kill themselves for the cause of Islam. I wanna see young people who are as committed to the cause of Jesus Christ as the young people are to the cause of Islam. I wanna see them as radically laying down their lives for the Gospel as they are over in Pakistan and Israel and Palestine and all those different places, you know, because we have... excuse me, but we have the truth! " - becky fisher, camp leader

also, what were some of the more appalling parts of the documentary to you?

I know not all of them are, I was just wondering why so many(not all but a large number) of the ones that use this site come across as rude and intolerant, almost dogmatic.

Where as ALL of the Atheists I have met face to face seem really quite pleasant and I often socialise with many of them.

Does this website make people more aggressive, or do people come here because is it a difficult issue for them?

Are you aware in the past the Pope has joined the nazi's by signing the Nazi Oath? Will you call me a liar, or will you do your own reasearch? Is joining the Nazi's considered "infalable"? How can someone who joined the Nazi's be a leader of a church that claims it is the "One true Church" and that there isnt any salvation except by them?

do you know any really strong revenge spells? I have someone causing me serious problems and i want to hurt them bad. its not an ex or anything that trivial, its someone seriously evil. i want to do as many revenge spells, curses hexes as possible.

I have done the lemon and nails spell, the black figurine, graveyard dirt and blackberry leaves spell, the knotted string spell and a binding spell to stop her messing with me.

Have you ever done a curse or hex or spell, how do you do it, and did it work.

the more evil the better please.

and dont tell me about the power of 3, its because ofthe power of 3 that she's having these spells done to her. she seriously deserves an eternity of bad luck and horridness after what she did to me and my family.
it's well deserved, trust me.

I am now a born-again Wiccan, should I hold a ritual and burn it or should I mail it? It is pretty nasty,by that, I mean, harshly written, but, unfortunatly, all of the content is true. Ever minding the Rule Of Three, i am wondering. her bf also hurled death threats at us and after i had calmed down, I had written the letter. tha t was b4 i had decided to go back into Wicca, and b4 I read the3fold Rule.

Ive no real preference or anti religious pursuasions its just that people seem to ask reasonable questions and usually get answered by people copyying out irrellevent sections of scripture, as if that helps or answers the question!!!

Its been a month since my being at my job for a year and I have not recieved a review for a raise or to see what I am doing wrong or right. Despite the fact that I work as a receptionist at a car dealer ship I am still entitled to a raise! How do i go about by asking for this? I know I can do it but I don't want to make it seem like I think I deserve it...even though I know I do as well as the guys and people that I work with that are not my managers. The girls in the office are so clicky and it seems like they have forgotten that its been a year for me..even though on my one year I brought in begals and cookies for all the people that I work with..which is well over 100 people. Not to say that I was doing that to butter them up into giving me a better raise..its just what I do...but anyways my question is..would you bring it up to your bosses if it was a month past your one year mark?

No guarantee that mine will stay the same for any length of time, but, I this is what my cousin called me after seeing me dressed up like a yogi at a relative's costume party. My name is Mike, so Mikenanda is a play on Paramahansa Yogananda's name.

There are some rather interesting avatar names in here...I'm curious about the story behind them.
