It is not only the government’s job to improve the future for our children.
It is the responsibility of every Filipino to create a better Philippines for the coming generations. All of us must think about how we can contribute.

my daughter who is 16 yrs old, intelligent & pretty. She is always talking in slang, telling everyone she is a gangsta, We are middle class, more like low middle class family, we do have a comfortable home, two parents that work. We love and take care of our children. I get so upset with her, because she has no idea that there are families that live everyday with the gangster life and they don't think that is so glamourized. How can I make aware of the way it looks, and how stupid she is acting. I don't think it is funny to think that you would want to live like that if you had the chance not to. I have struggled my entire life to do the best I can with what I have. I want my children to have more and do more so their children can be better and so on. It seems to me I have raised a daughter that wants to be on drugs, live with the thugs and welfare is great to be on.

just asking..... Some gay men, I know, think like we women do, and have great fashion/make-up/hair/ style sense than most women I know.

To accept that you smiply don't know all of the answer to a question when it comes to religion.

or

To blindly accept everything as is and twist and turn the meaning and context to make it fit so as to provide an answer based on a limited source?

But so are they! I don't get it. The Church of Christ says every other church is man-made, but so is the Church of Christ. Someone along the line had to start the church. And yes, there aren't many examples of people using instruments in the bible, but does it specifically say "If you use instruments, you are disobeying me and going to hell"?? That's basically what a Church of Christ preacher in my community has said.

Often we Love but we dont get Love. Its shows us the value of Love. Only when we are hurt we realize why not to hurt. Our relationships and dealings on earth show us a reflection of ourselves. Only when we are kicked out of the race of life, we start to reflect. We are here on earth to see how to work in a group and gain wisdom that our actions carry consequences and once we realize that problems may lie in our thoughts and actions. We start to correct them and once we correct them, we realzie all God wanted was what was good for us and then we start to Love. We need to collaborate with God and enter back the chain of command. Do you think then that tough journey of life is justified because we gained wisdom here through our actions and now will have better communication with God in the spiritual life of Love and Peace forever?

Did abraham have a wife and then slept with Hagar? So if I get married and my wife says "sure, you can have sex with Sally down the road" does that mean I can be an adulterer?

And what about Jacob, David, and Solomon? They all had multiple wives...so does that mean that Jesus denounce, or condemned those people??

So if that's a yes, that means Jesus is saying that his religion has been led astray by bad men from the beginning....and if he didn't condemn those people does that mean adultery or polygamy isn't that bad that Jesus didn't bother taking his time to condemn the people??

I don't understand.

People that are religious are so happy to say that they have faith. And doubting in anyway is bad (Doubting Thomas). But you need doubt to get to the truth of anything. Without it you accept with little to no reason to. Just because I believe something does not make it real. But with tried and true tests what I believe can be proven to be true. Not only that others can do what I did and get the same results. Faith in an invisible being is not the something that a rational person can honestly believe in when they consider the facts.

Atheism accounts for much less than 10% of the american population, and only slightly more than 10% on the world population...versus Xianity accounting for nearly 50% of usa population, and 33% of world population...wouldn't the wide path be Xianity? (by your own silly proverbs of course)

We know islam religion was founded after the other main religions, and we do know that there is a little similarity in the writings of the quran and the other holy books particulary with regard to the people i it and stories.

Since Islam came later, it is quite reasonable to assume that it is copied from the other holy books and edited by mr.mohammed.(we all know how this character is - check out www.thereligionofpeace.com for details)
