I don't get it. Just saying your first names isn't giving out any personal information. A million people can have your first name. The person you are talking to could probably know a bunch of people with your name or no people with your name.

Also, just giving out your state isn't bad either. I live in Virginia. I don't find that giving out too much information about myself.

I think some people go way overboard with the "don't give out personal infoooooo!" thing..

How many of you actually care one way or another about the Golden Compass?

And do you care enough to want it banned?

Do you just not want your kids to see it?

Would you let them see it if they wanted to?

I have 2 beloved, petite aunts who are in their 70s. I need a source (online store) for clothes to suit them. They would prefer to wear the same conservative machine washable, 100% polyester styles they have been wearing for the last 25 years or so. (If I bought them a "new" style, it would probably go in the closet never to see the light of day).

In particular, I'm looking for blouses that are a silky polyester (like a suit blouse) but have a stretchy ribbed knit band at the bottom (like a sweat shirt). These blouses had their heyday sometime in the 1980s, but my aunts still love them nevertheless.

Old Pueblo Traders used to carry these as recently as last Christmas, but no more. Can anyone suggest another source? Many thanks.

Noticed that every time a clock/watch in any ads keeps showing 10:10. Any secret behind it?

Quran 10:10 (Yunus:10)
[10] (This will be) their cry therein: "Glory to Thee, O Allah!" and "Peace" will be their greeting therein! and the close of their cry will be: "Praise be to Allah, the Cherisher and Sustainer of the Worlds!"

"You can safely assume that you've created God in your own image, when it turns out that God hates all the same people you do."
No idea who said it, but I like it.

(Not to lie, or cheat, or steal, or hurt someone weaker than you, et al)

I'll start: I was just recalling my youth. And, even though I attended Sunday School regularly, I never learned it there. I don't recall them teaching it (The 10 Commandments) there.

During my early youth my parents told me "Don't lie, or cheat, or steal cause you will caught". So I made sure not to get caught when I did those things.

I guess my answer is: When I got my first broken heart I vowed to never do that to another person. Ergo I stopped even considering to lie, or cheat, or steal cause to do so might break someone's heart.

So the question is: When was the first time you (really) learned "right from wrong"?

In 1998, 72% of leading scientists were atheists. Another 20% were agnostics. Only 7% expressed a firm belief in God.

Are all these scientists "fools" and "blind to the truth" like many Christians claim?

Were once devout in their religion, and even went to "bible college".

So why does this seem to be a trend? If anyone viewing this question has had this experience, could you explain to me why your mind changed? If you haven't, then your thoughts are most welcome as well!
