Would you like to have your children read "Under Allah"? (Seem strange no one ever replies to that question). Allah is a name, just as God is a name too. Well, if you really want to split hairs, Jehova (Yahweh) is the name (like Bob, Frank, Pete...His "name"

That's My Two Cents Hmmm...this looks familiar. The word god is written with an Upper case letter in the pledge. Implying that it is used as a Name and not a word. <
No, we're not owed a retirement. People used to work until they dropped dead. Sometimes literally. it's nice to have it to fall back on, though. I myself am planning to work until I can;t work anymore, because I by the time I get there, it won't be around. Seems to me that the governement investing money for your retirement, though, is a little more concrete a solution than the hypothetical "lock box" they came up with a few years back.</font
Right winger you are talking out your arse. You are the person most guilty of this of anyone on the Left Right Centre whatever you want I have no problem with people having opinions of their own and expressing them. However, if I see something I don't agree
Lee1776: Show this to your Middle East History professor. Tell him I said to lighten up. god n 1: the supernatural being conceived as the perfect and omnipotent and omniscient originator and ruler of the universe; the object of worship in monotheistic religions [syn: God, Supreme Being] 2: any supernatural being worshipped as controlling some part of the world or some aspect of life or who is the personification of a force
The word "God" isn't just the preferred name of the Christian deity, it's also a generic term meaning ANY deity...Allah, Buddha or satan. It could be defined to mean any god of one's choosing. Only those with extremely thin skin choose to be offended.
Let me clarify a little bit......they were going to abandon her at the mall, and she chose the terribly rude and inopportune moment to die, when she was in the car. So they just dumped her off, rolling her down over the bank from the parking lot into a drainage ditch full of weeds and trash. They beat her, too, if she messed herself or did it in her closet. The little food she did get came sneaked to her
Hmm...here Fox is firmly in the Right. Wonder why it's different there?
You need only look at Murdoch's press empire to see that Man, am I sick and tired of hearing people beat on Rupert Murdoch; he's not Caesar, for God's sake. He's one conservative voice in a vast swamp of Left-wing-biased media. He goes against the grai
I do believe in the Death Penalty. Cases like this make me wish comic characters like The Punisher were real people, you know? There was a similar case a while back in a city near my hometown. These people (woman and boyFIEND) took the woman's little girl, about the same age, to the mall, where she died and they dump
you (like most people) have a tendency to want to hear yourself talk (especially when it comes to politics) and not listen so much (or just want the other guy to shut up). Nah...this is mostly a Left-wing thing. You're all full of yourselves and enough hot air to kept a balloonists festival aloft. <img
Well put, '76. As for Mnilow being torture....i still think Vanilla Ice would work better. I can see it now: "DUN-dun-dun-dada-dun-DUN-Chk....DUN-dun-dun-dada-dun-DUN-Chk.....Awright, STOP! Collaborate an' listen....Ice is back, with a bran'-new invention; Somethin'...grabs ahold of me tightly, (something) like hawk, both daily and nightly---------" "AAAIEEEE" Allah have mercy! Whaaaa! Pleeez make it stop! Alright! Alr
No, I am married and a military wife, but only for a short while longer (not my choice). Sorry, Tex. (extends hand) Here's hoping you get your man.
As for Nicaragua... well, who cares about the media's concerns ---cacto I don't know about Down Under, but here in America, the media dominates the entire sphere of public opinion. If the media is against you, it's very difficult to win public support, as they'll only show the most negative of anything y
how many of the women who confessed to being witches in the inquisition or while being otherwise tortured were telling the truth? ---kingbee Were those women caught in the very act of assembling booby traps, driving car bombs or ambushing convoys of our troops or Iraqi police? No. The Salem Witch
Well said, Daiwa, well said.
you're losing the moral high ground ----kingbee But that's just the point WE'RE trying to make.....taking the high road isn't always the most efficient, or safest, way to get things done. It might be always preferable, but not always the "best" in the practical sense.
onna side note "history" look at what our military did in the philipines circa early pre ww1 ... we took muslim extremist and threatened to wrap em in pig skin if they did not talk... is that torture too?? Pershing DID bury Muslim insurgents with pigs, as an example to the others. Kinda made'em thi
I was just thinking....people disagree with me on my "becoming a monster to defeat a monster" thing......I've been told that we took the "high road" in WW2, for example, and won anyway. But, did we really take the high road? I mean, the air forces and militaries of multiple nations combined to kick the living shit out of two. Ever seen pictures of the cities of Germany in 1945? How about Japan? We bomb
I was somehow under the impression that you were married and a military wife...Or am I missing something here? I didn't read every post. Well, either way, I hope you get what you want. You deserve it, TexW. Good to have you back, by the way.
Faithful to Hitler, the Nazis picked out and specifically targeted the Jews, and they did this from the very beginning -- the Nazi Party Program of February 1920(1) to the very end Hitler's Testament of April 29, 1945.(2) In fact, Hitler had written a letter to a Herr Gemlich in 1919 in which he called for the removal of the Jews
Just a thought....the Tsunami was deamed an "act of God" by insurance companies.....I dont' hear any aithiest left wingers complaining about that! -----lifehappens Good point.
Another thing, though....if they're playing this stuff at such high decibles, isn't it also bothering the guards? Kind of hard to blast music without anyone but the intended subjects hearing. That means the torturers are suffering, too, and should count for somthing, in my book
That was my Jr High PE class ----Dr. Guy They taught us to do "The Hustle"...think I could appeal to the UN's Human Rights Commission? Maybe they could play William Hung? "She bang! She bang! Oh, yeah!" He also has that Christmas album......ABBA, m
Hm....I dunno....I'll have to look this up. WW2 is one of my hobbies, so I still think I'm right. (slaps Moderateman's face with glove, presents sword) En Garde! (pardon my French, 'ar 'ar)
