again. now if you go to an NBA game its mostly white folks enjoying the strength and talent and athleticism and miraculous plays off the strapping black men there. if the league became all white again ( and with white folk knowing what they know now about black athlethicism ) do you think that white folk will still go in droves to watch an all white NBA ? PLEASE ONLY HONEST ANSWERS. THIS IS NOT A POPULARITY CONTEST

I'm beginning to think that these Islamonuts are not outliers - they're the norm. The ruling of the Saudi court in that poor woman's rape case is just so appalling. No "religion" can possibly justify that sort of disgusting result.

Soon to be woman president, Iran future plans against

I am currently in my first semester studying Early Childhood Education (ECE) at Seneca. I am planning on graduating as an Early Childhood Educator and continuing my education. I love working with children and I would love to work or volunteer at an orphanage. My goal would be for the children to be happy and have fun. I would like to spend time with them, get to know each one of them (just like a teacher would with his/ her students).

Would I be able to work in an orphanage after I finish school or would I have to study Social Work to be able to work with orphans?

"The Last Supper"?

if you are Leonardo Da Vinci and you only intended to put into canvass how you picture the last supper of Jesus with His apostles (nothing more, nothing less), and one day you found out that someone, like Dan Brown, decided to make a big deal out of your painting about it having codes, what would your reaction be?

I am going to say this now I am not a racist person at all. I believe if you fall in love with someone and they care for you it doesn't matter what the color of their skin is. Rather the person be Cocasin, Mexican, Muslim, Gentle, Jewish or what ever. That is in my perspective. I am eager to see how many people agree with me or not. Please answer this question honestly. If you don't agree then say that and type down why you don't agree. The same goes for if you agree. Now how do you feel about inter-racial relationships?

Natural Law, the philosophical concept under which this nation was founded (and the source of "unalienable rights") depends on a higher power; namely a God that set into order Nature and the rights which we derive from her. This concept was furthered by John Locke who had a profound influence on the founders, and established that life, liberty and property (i.e. the pursuit of happiness) are endowed by the "Creator".

Given that Western Democracy is completely dependent on this concept and therefore an acceptance of theism, how does the typical atheist justify an acceptance of western democracy? Or do atheists simply reject this concept (which may explain their political left-leaning tendencies and affinity for communism/socialism)?

After reading this article on Yahoo News, this rape survivors punishment became crystal clear to me. I am a muslim and thats it, I dont agree with Sheite Islam, they are in the same category as chrisitianity to me, lost. But no one deserves this. This poor girl was punished because she is Sheite! To which I object! For nation that considers itself the "custodian to the two holy mosques" you'd think they would treat fellow muslims better than this.

Anyone else think she was punished for being Sheite?

I was on vacation for a few weeks--and I just knew that while I was gone the whole religion debate would be solved here by the geniuses on R&S, and concrete answers would be agreed upon by all.

So, what was the result? What was the question/answer that brought about universal enlightenment?

I'm so upset that I wasn't here to experience it! ; )

When my aunt died I took a rose from her funeral. The rose still is on my dash of my car and I will not part with it. Sometimes I look at it and feel overwhelmed with something I can not explain.

When it comes to material possessions of a lost loved one do you feel connected to that person in having that object?

What are your thoughts on the validity of the following way of thinking?

The definition of "supernatural" is basically anything that goes beyond the natural in regards to what is possible within the laws of physics. With that in mind, the supernatural cannot have any affect on the natural world that went beyond the laws of physics, as that would then make whatever it affected supernatural also. Either everything in our universe is natural and bound by the laws of physics, or else it is all supernatural and there is no way to predict anything at all about it's behavior.

You see in my family, my husband and I do not care for the traditional food. We all hate turkey, stuffing, cranberyy sauce.. and all of that. So at our hosue we have a little variety, Mexican food, hamburgers, macaroni and cheese, mini pizzas, hot dogs, chicken instead of turkey...

Our relatives got mad at us when they came to our house for Thanksgiving and saw that we were not serving the traditional meal and vowed never to come back to us again.

Do you spice up your thanksgiving away from this "traditional food" or do yo stick with the turkey and stuffing?

The whole "respect is earned" thing is BS. That would mean I'm to be disrespectful to people I don't know.

No, respect should be given until lost. You should treat someone respectfully until they prove to you that they are not worthy of it.
