African-Americans are roughly 12% of the population THEY DO NOT DO THE MOST CRIMES. The media only shows them doing crimes (FOR A REASON!) but it isn't true. Bring the stats if you want but its really common sense.

This already happens in in-vitro fertilization clinics. They fertilize a batch of eggs and then "screen out" undesirable qualities like down syndrome, etc. I'm not arguing this point at this time.

Right now, there is nothing (no laws) to stop parents from screening out other qualities, like height, hair and eye color. Should we allow parents to "customize" their children in this fashion?

Please state if you are pro-choice or pro-life and your religion.

I say that it is impossible. If someone looks white, chances are the majority of their ancestors are white. The absurd notion that white = pure has to go. Most of the people who "passed" for white were at least 3/4 white. People don't look the way they do for no reason.

*** Keep in mind that these were written in and about the 1st century ***

“Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all these things be accomplished. “ (Matt. 24.34a)

“The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show unto his servants, even the things which must shortly come to pass” (Rev. 1.1)

“for the time is at hand.” (Rev. 1.3b)

“And he saith unto me, Seal not up the words of the prophecy of this book; for the time is at hand.” (Rev. 22.10)

“Behold, I come quickly” (Rev. 22.12a)

“He who testifieth these things saith, Yea: I come quickly.” (Rev. 22.20a)

Remember, the Bible said that these things would happen soon and that these were written IN THE FIRST CENTURY.

If they did not happen in or near the first century, how could the Bible be true?

I love to eat pork, too. Sausages, hot dogs, pork chops,
barbecue pig, and bacon. Yes. Perhaps the best meat
in the world, other than chicken. But there are some who
do not eat this particular food. I wonder what is the reason
for this...... Give me your take on this topic, please.
And also tell me if pork, is good for you, or not. Well,
a slight change of gears. That's OK, though. Yeah, come
on by. Let's talk about this. Is eating pork a sin ?
Some say that it is unclean, and is not made for the
human body. Hmmmm. Best answer wins. ~~~

Every week we get together and somebody comes up with a good topic to discuss however I have ran out of ideas. It can be random topics. Last week we discussed if we won a million dollars what we would buy. The week before that was if we were on a plane that ran out of gas what would we do? Any ideas?

This term has meaning in your faith, that I think most non-Muslims are unaware of. When most non-Muslims hear the word "Jihad," it really freaks them out. So, what does it really mean to you? Does it really mean to convert on the blade of a sword? Or is there some other, less violent meaning?

Please, Muslims only. No disrespectful answers. I am asking this to understand more, and to clear up any misconceptions I may have, and yes I ask this out of respect.

...I'm officially burying my "youth" today, and placing my "man card" in the casket with it...

Turned on the radio this morning, and for the first time in my life, I discovered that I prefer the station that features old-timey "Singers and Standards," like from the 1940's and 50's.

It's pretty much all down hill from this point, isn't it? lol

Like animals have no souls (if any one can find a scripture stating they do, i'd like to see it), or we do not die and become angels with wings,,,and other such things. i was taught that the WHOLE Bible is the truth..Not just what i like. They have other religions for that and if u cant find one that believes what u want, u can start a whole new one...

1 John 5:19 We know we originate from God but the whole world lies in the power of the wicked one.
Romans 13:1 let every soul be in subjection to the superior authorities ,for there is no authority except by God , the existing authoritys stand placed in their relitive positions by God.
If God has allow the wicked one to hold the power over all the world ,then the wicked one must have a God given authority to rule , so should we not be in subjection to that authority

It's not just Whites but other hate African-Americans as well but not all or some. African-Americans come a long way to fight racism, Is it real sad when Other Ethnic groups dislikes my ethnic group. I wish was something else becasue Asians, Hispanic's, Indains, Italians and etc. they really don't face racism as much. These people Have "White Features" an they can pass for white and be accepted.
