We hear on the news of all the ecological issues facing the planet, has the human race got a hope in the next 25 years of going against greed and choosing to save the world for our kids. It is a big question however market forces do not show signs of acheiving enough in time....

For years many people have known that using the "n" word to describe a black person is completely degrading and disrespectful. I completely agree with this. One thing I don't understand is why some black people don't have a problem with calling it to someone of their own race. The explanation that if you use it with the "a" ending instead of the "er" ending makes it okay is absurd. If black people that use the "n" word in regular conversation had lived through the civil rights era or especially slavery I think they would have a much different feeling towards the word. I think it is time they stop using the word period. It is time they showed some respect to their ancestors.

This is bound to bring some nuts out of the woodwork, but I really want to know your experience? Many years ago, my friend and I saw a craft on the water in a seaside town. It was round with lights allaround it, and even as we watched, it just rose straight into the sky with no sound. We both thought the papers would be full of it the next day but there was nothing. I caught up with her a couple of years ago and she still remembered it too. The usual response we got in those days was that we were drunk or drugged or dreaming but none of those things was true.Neither of us was old enough to drink anyway.
What is your story??

OK, there is absolutely no way to be sure you will not have cancer. But there is one way to not get an STD: Don't have sex until you get married, then only have it with one preson. Why are we spending money to cure this?

I have never donated one dollar to cure STD's, and I never will. Hopefully someday people with realize how stupid this is.

From what I understand, since casinos are privately owned businesses, they have the right to bar certain people from entering. As an analogy, it is right for an all-you-can-eat restaurant to ban someone simply because of the massive amount of food that person will eat?

Can someone please explain to me why certain casinos are allowed to keep this practice?

or is it just another case of politcal correctness gone mad.
In Britain we live in a multi cultural society so we should respect all religions but surely that gives us the right to celebrate ours..

A second point is i wonder how many of the 'offended' are actually anything other than white and middle class

I'm a senior in HS right now. I've been diagnosed with Hypersomnia. For the past years (through middle school) i couldn't help but fall asleep in every class, it sucked. Parents would tell me to get more sleep, teachers would get mad, etc. I tried to tell them. It wasn't until I fell asleep at a hospital i was volunteering at did it get noticed...long story. Anyway, I know there's a lot of kids out there who are having medical/social problems letting it out or don't even know what's going on...whether it deals with hypersomnia, depression, pregancy, etc. I want to someday tour High School's and help them find out what's going on BEFORE college comes around (where your future REALLY starts)...Any idea on how i can get started with something like that...?

i think by separating people just by the color of there skin is what creates racism. if people just saw people then everything would be ok. by saying a certain joke is bad pushes the person the joke is about away and makes the gap between races bigger. why are people so stupid?

I am wondering for those who do believe in abortion. When is a fetus considered a baby to you? Also do you actually know what they do to perform an abortion? What are your overall feelings about abortions?

* I am just asking this, as my college English class had to write research papers, and there was one pro-choice, and one pro-life. Just trying to see what others think. I personally am pro-life. What to see the views from the other side. Not trying to offend others, just get information.

So I was in Food Lion, and I went to the checkout and the girl asks me if I have a Food Lion MVP card. So I tell her that I don't have it on me right now. So she asks the guy behind me if he has a Food Lion card and he goes yeah. So she takes his card and swipes it.

So he got the points. HE GOT THE POINTS. That's absoloutly NOT FARE. Why should HE get the points just because he has a card? I don't want MY POINTS being given away to some random person.

How dare she. HOW DARE SHE GIVE AWAY MY POINTS. I felt like slapping that hispanic ***** across the face.
