Are people who don't live their lives this way in a very small minority?

My husband recently put up a Confederate flag at our house.
He also has a Confederate flag sticker on his truck.

I am just curious as to what you would think if you saw this at someone's home.

(I'm not racist)

Thanks

One of the Smurfs arch enemies made a potion to turn themselves into a smurf and sneak into the Smurf Village--But the Anti-smurf was born without a tail, so they had to paint a pea blue and glue it to their butt in order to pass for a real Smurf--who was it?

And this is a very serious question to Smurfis everywhere, don't mock it! We take our religion every bit as seriously as you take yours.........

If man evoluted from monkeys, why isnt it still happening today?

if white skin is because an african immigrated to europe and in order to adapt to the climate his skin turned white, then why doesn't an africans skin turn white when they move to alaska today? LOL!!

the climate of south africa is the same as parts of europe, so why didnt the skin color of the zulus and other traditional tribes of south africa turn white? LOL!!

That is the million dollar question. One would like to know
the answer to that please. I mean we took all of your
stuff away from you after the war, and now you wanna
get back at us. We know the Euros are always in our
shadows, and have been for hundreds of years. Exchange,
exchange, exchange. It is not our fault, that we are
number one. 230 years, not bad for a young laddie, country.
We are still in the baby stages, if you ask me. Talk about
growing up fast. Wow. You English need to think about
that. And keep your ideals to yourselves. Because we
will NEVER be like you. OK. Best answer wins. *

Or does it need to be? If a church fabricates fanciful doctrine, then it doesn't need to reconcile with the Bible.

I am not trying to be rude or make assumptions, but I work in the service industry (servers/waiters, bartenders, etc.) here in the U.S. and typically when we get a table or bar guest with a UK accent, we groan because we know we are getting a bad tip. Do people from the UK tip like that intentionally (I know most of the world hates Americans) or do they just not know any better? Typically in the US, you are supposed to tip 15% of the total bill for average service and 20% for good service (even to bartenders). Is it different over there?

does that mean it no longer costs 5 points when you ask a question? Otherwise, couldn't you end up dropping down to a previous level, which means your questions are not "unlimited" ?

I've checked with my Microsoft spell checker as the definitive resource because a) everybody knows that Microsoft can be trusted (*cough*) and b) there was too much conflicting information on the web.

But, for the most part, I've found that where religions/faiths and beliefs (Christianity, Islam, Judaism, etc...) are capitalized, atheists and agnostics are kinda... left out.

An no - saying that they're "inferior" or somehow otherwise unworthy is an obvious and a rather sophomoric attempt at humor. At least show some wit if you're going to bag on the question.

Does this not say that parents should kill their own children if they disobey?
The Old Testament

He that smiteth his father, or his mother, shall be surely put to death. -- Exodus 21:15

He that curseth his father, or his mother, shall surely be put to death. -- Exodus 21:17

For every one that curseth his father or his mother shall be surely put to death: he hath cursed his father or his mother; his blood shall be upon him. -- Leviticus 20:9

From Deuteronomy

21:18 If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, which will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and that, when they have chastened him, will not hearken unto them

21:19 Then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring him out unto the elders of his city, and unto the gate of his place;

21:20 And they shall say unto the elders of his city, This our son is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton, and a drunkard.

I grew up Catholic. As I matured into an adult, I started to believe that religion is man-made, and churches are nothing but businesses wanting your money. I started to believe that the Bible is too far fetched, and Darwin makes more sense. Maybe the Native Americans had it right? The 10 Commandments were in place to control the masses? Why would God create you, then banish you to Hell, if he "loves us so much"??? Confused....

One of my friends lifted her eyes up with her fingers and said "Look I'm Jackie Chan!" Then my other friends started laughing too. I am half asian and I find that really offending. Even though I am half south east asian so I don't have those "asian eyes" as they call it but I still find that offending to asians. Am I overeacting or are they racist?

Statistics prove that more intelligent people have smaller families..
more wealthy people have smaller families
better educated people have smaller families

since the world is exceeding its population limits (we are over 6.5 BILLION) and the effects are showing everywhere - pollution = increases in childhood cancers and asthema, deforestation, urban sprawl consuming farm land (how long till we eat cat and dog like in China?)

- even 2 kids is population growth since we are living longer...

my question is - HOW CAN WE GET DUMB/POOR PEOPLE TO STOP MULTIPLYING AND ADDING TO THE HUMAN OVERPOPULATION PROBLEM??

OK, this is the question....

Now that you have studied Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, let’s compare the three. Where do the religions intersect, if at all? There are many common threads these Western religions hold, and this assignment will help you remember what you have already learned in previous weeks and add the new knowledge on to that.

Thanks so much for your help... (the reason I am asking fo rhelp on this is I also have a 1300 word paper on Jesus and Mohammad that was due Sunday in this class and a Terrestrial Resource Checkpoint due in my Science Class that was due the Friday after Thanksgiving, and I have to pass these classes!!!! )

AGAIN THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP

in reponse to an answer to a question/

Do you think something is severely wrong with someone you've never met in person who is so infatuated with controling the private lives of those they will never meet that they feel the need to inform people of their preoccupation of imaginary superior morality?

How old, rather, how mature do you think someone with this deep rooted psychosis is anyhow?

Do you picture someone like this sitting in a darkened room having imaginary wars with sock puppets?

What's your take on this?
