Society & Culture - 25 December 2007

Asti Taylor was my child. A cocker spaniel that lived a little past her 18th birthday. She was born in October or November of 1989. She passed away in my arms about 2pm eastern standard time on December 22, 2007. She is everything to me. I was 18 when I first brought her home and I will be 36 on 12-31.

I have just had a crap Christmas, its been nothing to do with the orginal meaning whatsoever, not that I am greatly religeous, I just hate the commercial hype, and the rest that comes with it.

So with the thought in mind, that we are gonna have to go through this crap all over again this time next year, and life is too short .... I want some idea s for an ALTERNATIVE Christmas .....?????

Would anyone be interested? I just want a chance to practice my German, with someone who knows the language as a native speaker. I would perhaps like to emigrate to Germany later in life, so it would be nice to get a good feel for the language...thanks for any help anyone can offer.

And if so, would it not be a great idea to change the menu a bit and add something different ?

Every Christmas people talk about helping those who suffer! It is right under their noses, but they choose to ignore it. Hell, they will even add to the suffering of their own relation! They only see it if it comes in society's accepted charitable forms of a soup kitchen or a shelter? I've been caught in a financial prison, ostrasized by my family fo so many years. My nieces and nephews kept from me because I am not Christian! Taken for granted for years. My every contribution in this life, even cooking for others, gifts, all tossed away. Rich relations even look away, but puff themselves up by giving to charity. But cannot give of themselves to their own relation!

Is there anywhere in this world where I can find someone who can value me and my contributions? I've no where to go, no money. Yet there are people with millions.

Why does this inequity exit? Is everyone in a position to help without compassion? Why go on in such a selfish world?

Unless Mary was God, she had a sin nature.

Christians say man was made from dust.
Muslims from water.
Christians believed the earth was flat ....till modern science proved them wrong.
Muslims from the beginning knew the earth was round.
Christians believed the earth was the center of the universe till scientists proved them wrong.
Muslims always knew the sun was the center ( and that it spun on its own axis) and the planets revolved around it.

After the birth of Jesus, does it not show that Mary is a sinner when she offered the two turtle doves, one for burnt offering and the other for SIN offering, in accordance to the law of Moses in Leviticus 12?

Thus, as Mary is a sinner,

there is no immaculate conception,
and as such, there is no assumption of Mary
and as such, the popes and the unholy blind (as opposed to the holy see) had been wrong all along in matters of faith and doctrine, ex cathedra???????????

That God asked that we celebrate Jesus Christ's birth and call it Christmas? I can't find it anywhere. Also, where is it written to honour his mother Mary the way the catholics do. Can't find that either. I really want to know. Please refrain from attacking my question. I know how the Yahoo Moron club likes to jump in where they're not wanted.

I caught the little bugger watching a Jesus cartoon the other day. He quickly changed the channel to a science program when he heard me enter the room, but I knew what he was watching. And on the walk to school in the mornings we go past a church and he always dawdles at this point craning his neck to try to peer through the doors, then looks guilty when I tell him to stop looking at that building. What can I do to make him as militant as I am about atheism?

All day people have been sending me text messages wishing me "Merry Christmas, Happy New Year" and such. I think giving holiday tidings in text is rude and impersonal so I never respond. My sis says I'm wrong. I say a person should pick up the phone or say it in person. What do you think?

How Many Sects of Christianity, Judiasm, and Islam are there?
Prophet Muhammad (saw) said that Judiasm Will Break Up into 71 sects eventually. Christianity will eventually break up into 72. and Islam in to 73. So.....If Allah Wants his prophecy to come true, then when 71, 72, ad 73 are here--they must come before Isa'.
1) Judiasm
2) Christianity
3) Islam.

i mean, it is a little silly, in the quaran it does not say that women cannot drive or in any hadith
it says that their duty is to teach and protect the children and thats it
it actually states that is the women complete thier duty to the children they can even work
my father says it is due to religous politics that started after
our beloved prophet mohamed passed away, Allah bless him
