    The Complicated Human Species

    The more I observe my cat, the more I see the contrast of our complication when it comes to hygiene. For what would become of the human species without his/hers toiletries and/or cosmetics? Fom soaps, shampoos, deodorants, perfumes, toothpastes, mouthwash, flosses to hair gels; from lipsticks...

    Which religious group?

    I was raised a Roman Catholic and I've been used to faking it all the time because it didn't seem to make sense say all those Hail Mary 50 times. I often asked myself, can't God/Mary understand it just once? lol I was bored to death with all the rituals until I became a non practicing...

    Which religious group?

    I was not trying to be condemning or judgmental when I said what I said. I was simply reiterating what the bible states about the impending judgment. I certainly respect every one's belief and opinion around here because we are all different in many ways. This is a very sensitive subject and...

    Which religious group?

    My dear Doran, no rudeness from your part at all. I see an honest intellectual seeking an evidence of the Divine. But what kind of evidence must you need to convince you? I have posted a previous thread of a letter from Werner Von Braun that deemed be reposted for this argument. Although a...

    Which religious group?

    In the end, people will believe what they want to believe. Some prefer to be atheists because they feel that their freedom is being threatened by religious inhibitions if they joined one. They may feel convicted, or even almost enlightened by the truth but may make excuses not to accept it...

    Which religious group?

    Well, "He" just did! Sending His only begotten Son to be tortured, crucified, and mocked by this world. I believe no one has ever suffered and been tortured like this man... this Son of Man who was also the Son of God, and being God Himself in the flesh who identified with us, Emmanuel - God...

    Santa Claus Is Over

    It was just the kids that told her. You know how peer presure can be a strong influence among them. But thanks for that ingenious plan. Now I've got to find me a fat neighbor to do the job. lol

    Santa Claus Is Over

    When I was growing up, I always had great anticipation of Christmas because I knew that Santa Claus was coming to town ... to my house at midnight to drop off my gift. That to me was the most exciting part of Christmas because it was really rather special that it was supernatural enough having...

    Movies And Their Profanity

    Yes, you're right about this ... and that's the animal kingdom. But thank you, I'll check out the book.

    Movies And Their Profanity

    You're talking more like an evolutionary process of society in stages, which in the end, will pan out in utopia. I find that hard to swallow because a society without a standard have no absolutes. There is no right or wrong therefore everything is permissible under the sun because there is no...

    Movies And Their Profanity

    That's exactly the goal of the present movie industry - to DESENSITIZE the public. Just as Madonna french kissed Britney Spears on the MTV awards, she said, the more you let people see it, the more they will want it, until they will finally accept it. The same goes for cussing and taking the...

    Movies And Their Profanity

    Taking the Lord's name in vain is even worst than profanity IMO.

    Games of Chance!

    No Gambling Not for me. My backyard here is the Casino with all their billboard lighted up to attract people but I was never even tempted. Too many robbings and suicides going on there. I don't want to be one of the statistics. Besides I am abundantly blessed and have my every needs met...

    Movies And Their Profanity

    There may be a lot more special effects that heightens our thrill with the movies nowadays, but they also come in a package deal with profanities. Well, I may just be referring to R rated movies, but why do they have to put it in there? It's just so plain degrading and disgusting to say the...

    Going Casual

    It was a lazy Sunday on a cool 75 deg weather with slight drizzle. People were jogging in the rain on Riverside strip enjoying the cool breeze (a nice break from the previous heatwave). So I decided to dress casual for church in my dark blue shirt and khaki shorts with a pair of topsider...

    Haircuts

    Yeah, you're right. I was wondering why them stylists never use a straight razor for the behind my ears, sideburns, or on the backside. I always have to do them myself when I get home. Going for a haircut is quite a relaxing experience for me. I always close my eyes and fall asleep as...
