Or, I guess you could say bungee-had. Anyway, it works like this : anyone who wants to do a suicide bombing picks their target, and a giant bungee rope jump is set up at the site. Before the person jumps, they have to estimate the amount of time it will take to reach the bottom, and set a timer. If they set it right, they inflict major damage on the "infidels" and "win". If they are wrong at all, they bounce back up and blow only themselves up, so they "lose". People could even gamble on it. I mean - think about it - it has everything we love : gambling, competition, violence, chance of death or serious injury. So what do you think - will you join the "bunjihad"?

I want gay marrige to be legalized, gay people have the right to get married just like anybody else in the world, gay people should be able to get married with out the homophobia of haters, I know that there is a state called Massachusetts that gays can go to to get married, but that is just one state, every state should allow people who love differenly to get married, who agrees with me?
oh I wanna say Happy Holidays.

If so, then this answer is definitely for you. Now I was
watching the news, the other day. And I see this.....
Don Imus is back on the radio. OK. He seemed the
same ol guy, and with 2 Black people by his side.
Now is this real or fake ? Playing the race card, but
in reverse ? Using a decoy, like this current
Administration", to represent Blacks, even though his
intent, or state of mind, is still racist ? How do you
as a White Person, feel about this situation ? And how
do you see the African Americans, or other people of
color, around the whole world ? Be honest. Thank
you very much. Best answer wins. *

Where did the water come from?
The Sun would have been too big even 25,000 years ago for water to have existed on this planted.

How did we get into our present orbit?
Where did the water come from?
Could carbon life forms exist without water?

(When I ask if you once believed in God I don't mean going to church with your family.... I want to know if there was actually a relationship with God that you no longer have) Thanks. I'm just curious and I honestly want to understand your point of view. And if you never did believe in God, without bashing anyone, can you tell me what turns you off about the thought?

How big would the Sun be 4.6 Billion years ago?
My kids and I tried to run some numbers, but we think there are some errors in our calculations:

The sun shrinks 2 feet every hour.
So here is the equation:

2 ft x 24 hr x 365 days / 5280 = 3,32 miles per year of shrinkage

3.32 miles x 4,6 billion years, added to the sun = 1,517,000,000 Billion more miles. This puts is just 200 million miles short of Uranus.

This means that the Earth did not exist or could not have existed 4,6 billion years ago.

What say ye?

Does your religion forbid dance offs?

What if someone challenges you, should you walk away?

What about inter-faith dance offs?

felt like it was a worthy question for the big three in religion. Do you think that the recent effects of Atheism, attempting to take God out of everything, is a direct effect of technology and science and is humanities wake up call, or is it some religious sign of the times. This has got to end somewhere, right?

I am a Christian believer but felt inclined to open this question up for all. Thanks for the help.

Is there a certain weight requirement to be "jolly"?

I am finding it very difficult to be jolly when I am freezing my a.s.s. off and it gets dark outside at 5 pm each night....

Thoughts ...?
