... yeah just a little... (refering to aeryk giving relationship advice to a homosexual). Then again, Jesus seemed to talk to everybody, so I would assume it is ok for someone who knows of Jesus and believes in God would too. Something about loving everyone and not judging them...

I guess allot of peoples experiences are just different. I know of people who work hard, try to make inroads into something just to get pushed out by someone who doesn't know squat but knows someone and they are in. Time and time again. Common sense, hard work, and reliability will take you far, but it still does not mean that road will not be rocky. Hard work creates opportunities (like going to and finishing college) but without an op

Response to Dr Guy in post #18 I do understand you point, please don't get me wrong about that, but while the child is innocent, so is the mother. You’re still punishing the mother for no crime except that she was raped by another. Is that fair to the child? No. Making a person use her body to carry the baby it no different then arresting 10 people to get one criminal; the end result is 10 people are arrested, freedoms taken away just to make

Oh and about the spelling... I thought about that at work today and you guys got a point (especially with the knowledge archive thing). I really let my writing skills slip way too much I took a Civil test for the state (one I should have passed with flying colors) and got a 67 even though I 'knew' everything on the test. I was very disappointed when I got the result. I'll take your advice and be more precise (and get that grammar book

little_whip: So, I guess what you are saying is that my middle class dad, who retired back in 1990 while making about 90k a year was only able to do so because he stepped on throats, got a lucky break, or was born in the right family? What an asinine assumption to make. My dad was born to to a coal mining family in eas

Blog Navigator is, by far, one of the best app out there to store and create data and informations. I am very impressed by it and its ability to save webpages for later reading or using for research, reports, blogging or projects. I, personally, think this should be part of the Productivity Suite (Think Desk) alongside Multiplicity. Storing data like past meeting notes, historical data on business related items, external and internal fact

I just think when it comes down to it, the other 50% is what does it for you. You can work hard all you want to, but with out an oppertunity to succeed, networking/connections and other said items, your not going very far. If there are people here who were poor with hard working parents, are you sort of saying that they were stupid (es I know that is a loaded question)? If everyone worked hard, would there be 30,000 dollar jobs for ev

you should write to them and let them know. GM still doesn't know what to do with Pontiac and Buick. SUV sales are down and car sales are rising again with cars like the the Dodge Magnum, Infiniti, BMW and... even Chrysler!!! lol They got so mad at one paper that they pulled advertising from it for saying it has a lame duck for a leader. I used to lik Pontiac and should since it is a youth orientated car but what the heck is it now? A

wildbeast: I understand your views somewhat, so are you saying that there can be abortion at least in some cases? 5, 6, 7 and 10 means 4 out of 10 reasons can abortion can happen. I think pro-lifers get villianized because real people make mistakes, real people go through horrible shit like rape and real people have to decide whether they will have a child or not. It sort of come out like 'she was raped and you say its ok for

There has to be a comprimise, because your either forcing someone to go to term or your giving them an option not to. One innocent Vs. another... who wins? No one. This is why is some cases it has to be up ti the person (the woman) holding the child. Forcing the person to go to term as punishment for getting pregnant doesn't exactly ring as fair. I guess one could say to the one having the child to 'suck it up' whether it be

My overly simple answer is that thigs are ot black ad white. Life never had a simple answer for everything, whether it be 'just work hard' or 'its a life form'. We all deal with life one way or another and all we can truely hope for is that it was the best choice to make when we are making them (becuase you damn sure can make up for it later). For those who believe in God, I think a forgiving God is much more powerful that a non-forgiving one.

If I said it once, I must have said it more than twice; working hard is not enough. Working hard is a key element to 'making it', but it is not THE element nor is it the only one. The way I look at it, this is how it works: Hard Work: 50% Oppertunity: 25% Take Risk: 10% Connections: 10% Other: 5% (Other could be anything from wi
