It seem like women have to be anorexic, blonde, and have light skin just to be considered beautiful in the west. Even Black, Middle Eastern, Asian, and Latino are subjected to lighter role/half white models like Hallie Berry, Aiswarya Rai, Eva Longoria, and Lucy Liu to look up to.

In a nation full of yellow ribbons and patriotism you’d figure a service member could choose any state to live in. Not so, Montanans demonstrate endlessly that the only people they want here are Montanans and Super Wal-Marts. They’ve learned to blame outsiders coming in for loss of identity, instead of dealing with their "sell-out" neighbors. But hey, all’s not too bad; Perhaps that’s why everywhere I have been in the world, and I am very well travelled; the absolute most evil of people are Montanans. I haven’t met a Montanan yet that hasn’t told me “If you don’t like it, leave.” I think I will, Montanans deserve to have Californians come up and buy everything, big corporations like Wal-Mart to employ their drop-out kids, and to bring an onslaught of outsiders where Montanan tactics will be met with swift big-city tactics, Montanans will become extinct. Want a job here? Be sure to include "these ones" somewhere on your resume. Know what happens when inbreds breed? Montana.

It seems to me that all of humanity's problems stem from greed and violence....All those billionares out there, and few care about the fate of humanity, they hound government to prevent research on the one thing that would really make a difference and stop the two things that would prevent world peace...We have the technology to build a better human model, but this raises "Ethical" questions....What could be more "ethical" than eliminating greed, poverty, war, and hatred from the world, as it is, we resemble unthinking animals as we strive to gather un-needed wealth, and personal power over all others! ..This is the most pressing problem, and is the only reason that we have created this intolerable situation....We must share our knowledge, wealth, and work together as a race if we are to survive past the next century, Otherwise it will continue as it is untill we become extinct by our own actions....Think about it.

I can't believe some of the things that my 10 year old niece talks about...she is aware of things that I hadn't thought about until I was much older. Is the media to blame?

The characteristic valued to work in white corporate america is often hidden and unspoken. In america, the media always talk about having a diverse ethnic workforce so that discriminating people based on race is addressed and being politically correct is a goal. But if you sit down with top white executive, you will here a different story. What you will hear behind the doors of the good old boy network is that, people hire those they are comfortable with. What this means is white bosses will only hire other white managers to work with, because socially they are comfortable with each other. After work they can go golfing, strip joints, and to the bar to get drunk, just like when they were in college, to have sex with white girls and have white values to include and believe, no shame in lude conduct, everything is justified as long as you win, regardless of how you get there, making money justifies doing illegal things as long as you don't get caught.

If God didn't love you, He wouldn't give you an incentive to get to Heaven - instead, He would just let you go your own foolish way. But because God really loves you, He created Hell where He will torture without mercy for all eternity anyone who doesn't believe in Him. OK, so any human who acted like this would be branded a sadisitic psychotic monster and even if man was made in the image of God but we can't say that God is a sadistic psychotic monster because then we will go to Hell where we would be tortured without mercy for all eternity by the loving God. So it is clear that God loves you so much He is prepared to torture you without mercy for all eternity if you don't love Him back. Now what could be better proof that God loves you than that?
