Reply to Kyoto Protocol and why Americans don't want to participate in Current Events JoeUser Forums

Europeans are always talking about global warming, Americans rarely. An Atlantic monthly article a few years ago had some bizarre ideas of how we could stop it. I do't remember what those ideas are.

I think that the answer is no to both. Although there are a lot of problems, I think that the checks and balances would keep that from happening. However, if we had a major war, then it might be possible.

Sometimes you do get a better job. Often you do not. Usually you have to wait for more than a month. Life gives you lemons and you make lemonade.

You were right to protest. If you are really courageous, go out to coffee with her and explain your point of view. It is easy to disagree on an impersonal level, but harder in a personal confrontation.

Paying workers well may be difficult in the short term, but if they make something that they can buy, they will help the corperation by buying their products.

Reply to Review of The Butterfly Effect in Movies & TV & Books JoeUser Forums

I read your blog because I thought it was about the butterfly affect. This is the strangest review I've ever read--but I like it. I may see the movie just to figure out why it effected you so much.

Actually you are more than an emotional person you are a compassionate person. That is why you judged God so strongly. You didn't think he cared enough.

Reply to Creating a society of dependents in Politics JoeUser Forums

The majority of those on welfare are children. Should they starve. Most of the parents on welfare are single and have few jobs skills. The type of work they do is not sufficient to earn both childcare and enough to pay rent and food. If they work two or three jobs, who cares for the children?

Reply to Trouble posting in Blogging JoeUser Forums

I have no trouble with my brothers computer, but with my daughter's computer nothing happens. With my computer I don't get the display with areas for making a new article. When I click on the choice between blog sites, nothing happens. I also have a Mac. It might be fixed already I'll have to go home and find out.

Reply to Healing, and Going Home in Blogging JoeUser Forums

I know about being angry at God. My reasons are different, but I finally forgave him and let go. The funny thing is that God was never angry at me. I believe that bad things happen, because there is something wrong with this world, not with God. God made the world but he gave us the freedom to choose him or evil and we chose evil. So now we live as broken people in a broken world. But God sent his Son to bring us a way out of brokenness, separation and evil. Now we can have free access to

I guess I shouldn't feel so bad about being a boring person! Your life is typical of a mother of a young child. It doesn't last long.

This is terrible. I had never heard about this law. I hope there never is an occasion to use the vaccinations.

Reply to Church and State in International JoeUser Forums

The problem with state sponsored religion is not what it does to the state but what it does to religion. Being forced to study religion when you don't want to makes students avoid the church later on. Genuine faith is attractive because it is about God's love for humanity. Phony religion is about rules for other people. What I like best is for the students to be allowed to practice their faith and talk about their faith, but for teachers to keep quiet. I can understand the French

Yes the are. Dealing with chronic illness is hard for anyone let alone a child. After you've gotten more practice writing, you should write your story. I'm sure that children would really benefit from your point of view.

Reply to Oh, The Stupidity! in Blogging JoeUser Forums

Mean comments come out of anger and fear. If you think that others are homeless because they are stupid, lazy, or crazy, then you don't have to worry about ever being homeless. If however you see that no matter how hard you work and how lucky you are that you could become homeless, then you don't have that veil of denial to protect you emotionally. Those of us who have had hard times, realize that as terrible as it is to be in that situation, that w

Reply to Tony says ...believe me as much I believe me in Politics JoeUser Forums

I imagine that Tony Blair supported America because he thought it was the right thing to do. He made up the concern about the weapons because he thought that it would be something that would convince the British public that the war was a good thing. My impression is that it didn't convince the British public and now looks really bad because they weren't found.
