We are a mexican-american family. My sister and her husband make good money and bought a nice house in an upper class neighborhood dominated by mostly white americans.

Yesterday, on Thanksgiving, my cousin (who is dark), My brother (who is white mexican with bachelors in Journalism and works in the news) and I (white mexican, accountant), drove together to our sisters house for thankgiving.

We parked our car infront of our sisters house and got off to walk to the house. On the other side of the street were two tall white american males that kept looking at us dirty.

I started to feel like they did not want us in their neighborhood. They started to motion towards us and say things. But we just looked back at them and walk into our sisters house to have Thanksgiving.

Why are american whites raciste towards hardworking mexican americans?? We have three generations in California

Six of us stayed friends when we left school,
one who we will call ( (T ) ) got into bad company. Married and divorced, and hit the drink hard, broke her mothers heart umteen times. The five of us often gave her money, a bed for the night and took her to the hospital after one of her debauched new friends beat her up. Now that has all changed, because after years of abusing her
body, she has become a Christain. And don't we know it, she talks down to us for going to the bingo. How can an ex alcoholic
talk like this, do you think she has been brainwashed, she has even become nasty,
surely that is not being a Christain.?

If the Devil speaks to you and say that he is God, would you believe him? You have to, haven't you? Because you never saw the face of God, and never will, and do not know how to distinguish the two.
Scary.

I dreamed that there was a small child (maybe a toddler) that was crouched down pouring a bag of sugar on the floor. What does that symbolize?

Many fundamentalist Christians will tell you that god causes earthquakes and other natural disasters to punish man. Apparently, god likes to throw his weight around every now and then to demonstrate how tough he is and show who is boss - An unusual way to behave for someone who is supposed to be all-powerful and all-knowing...

However, why do earthquakes occur on the moon? There are no people on the moon. Does god have poor eyesight and miss his Earthly target, or is he just practicing? Actually, he can’t miss because he’s god, and gods don’t need to practice.

So…

Any other thoughts?

Is it really worth it to fight other people over a silly toy? If you grabbed it out of some other woman's hands, do you really feel proud of yourself?

This is a dumb question but i m having my sweet 16 in a few weeks. On the outside of the card it says " and invitation" then it says 'for' in the inside. In that blank do I write the persons name i am inviting or do I write my name since the party is for me? Then in one of the blanks it says 'hosted by', is it better to write my name because its hosted by me or do I write "mom and dad"? This is my first party so these questions are pretty weard. Both my prents keep telling me different awnsers so I don't know what to put.
Thanks so much for your help!

Two year ago I was traveling by car with my family and we all saw the dark shape of a person and a dog standing next to the road, they were all black. It was around 3:00 in the afternoon. My father simply said that it was some lost soul and kept driving, but since then I haven´t stop asking my self what really was that. The road where we saw this creature was near to a cementery. We aren´t religious people, so we only know a little about the bible, but I was thinking that maybe other faiths have some answer to this.

Also, do you think thanksgiving is a good holiday to have, or not? I see both sides of it, and will explain my views after seeing some others.

It is a lie to claim that myth is truth. The affirmation of an ability to know about the existence of a good one in Heaven at war with an evil one cast down to and ruling over Earth is a fraud that follows from the lie that myth is truth. Conservative ideological authorities perpetrate this fraud inorder to be able; to make threats against the life and or afterlife of anybody who does not submit to their authority; and to extort from communities of faithful believers tithes and offerings in exchange for a lifelong indoctrination in a standard of conduct that these same ideological authorities proclaim to be the discovery of the truth about the will of a good one in Heaven at war with and evil one cast down to and ruling over Earth.
