pump so much money into other countries to save them from poverty befor we try to save the starving right here in our own back yards?
wouldn't it make more sense to clean up our own mess and then do what we can for the rest of the world?

Every time I ask why do Muslims hate Americans I get: Not all do just the extremists...and Don't you watch the news and we that in Iraq, blah, blah, blah. But what I'm really looking or is the big problem. Why did they hate us before that. And why specifically Americans and not other christian nations.

when someone says something to you jokingly do you have a witty/funny comeback instantly or are you like me
and you think of the funniest comeback to say but usually it's a day or week later? I'm the worst for thinking on my feet.

Thanks.....

Once the world pollutes a natural resource, humanity will find a way to chemically 'purify' it and sell it. What do you think will be next on the list of 'purified' natural resources?

So many people are so concerned with buying the latest fashions, (which are really just fashions from 12 years ago) or how slim their cell phone is that the real problems of society and the world get overlooked. Is it just me, or are we conditioned to think this way?

My greatest fear is that we shall all oscillate between life and death through all Eternity. With each new life comes the opportunity to experience What Religious people call HELL. It is all regardless of how good or bad anything is. Each new life being totally isolated from the previous. If we happen to be intellegent we will be forced to learn everything all over again and again and again and yet again....USW till time ends. I was looking for a specialty group called PHILOSOPHY but was unable to find it so I just posted this here. PLEASE tell me your fears no matter how bizzare.

I have a couple of friends from 'over the pond' and their opinions differ. Some actually still think we're 'backward' or have the 'stiff upper lip thing?'

the only ones who say marijuana isn't addictive are the ones who are PSYCHOLOGICALLY addicted to it themselves. sure it's not physically addictive like heroin or alcohol, but some people REALLY do get a psychological addiction which causes them the need to go find it everyday, and to use it to make things seem fun. And it may not be an addiction to THC itself, just an addiction to the escape, or the need of alteration, i know many who are addicted to marijuana, but since it isn't physically addictive and only mildly psychologically addictive, they can have a couple days of alcohol binge instead. why wont people learn? OFCOURSE however, i think marijuana should be legal over alcohol, it's just stupid it isn't the other way around, alcohol is MANY times more destructive, and marijuana has legitemate medical uses, i'm just saying, when it gets to the point where you're freaking out because you can't find a quarter bag, blowing everyone else off until you find it THATS AN ADDICTION...

I keep seeing people refer to others that way as a way of sounding more helpful or something. But it's really starting to get out of hand. I think a few people saw others calling others that and have latched on to the trend. It's getting old, and it's a little patronizing most times (though not all... with some people you get the feeling they genuinely care and that it's a word they use in real life too.) But there are those people who answer with a sarcastic answer and put a "hun" at the end, and it's usually girls. Why do people do it? If you do it, is it natural, or did you only start doing it on YA?

I left my umbrella at my workplace. I didn't have my name on it as who puts their name on their umbrella?? I didnt realize it till I got home late and the store was already closed. I go in the next day and find out the umbrella was sold to someone (we have a rack of umbrellas for sale not far from where I left mine on the table. Of course it didn't have a tag on it but in retail it is common to scan a similiar item to get a price ringup. I really need my umbrella because I have to walk to work and the busstop so if it is raining, I can't go to work. Everyone is too busy to do anything about it. Is there a way to be remembursed for my employer selling my property. I have the cover to the umbrella so they know they sold it as it is a unique print . I know it sounds like a dumb question but it is 25 dollar umbrella and I need it or my money.
