  the Indonesian president, SBY, recently spoke out against these monsters, saying that they do not represent Islam.

  Indonesia is the worlds most populous Muslim nation, does that count as some one apeaking out?

  that poor man, and his poor family.

  Satan and the demons, ghosts, spirits, fortune tellers. Are they real?

  i believe in god.

  i don't believe he punishes or rewards people.

  so by the same extention i don't believe any spirit beings can communicate with or influence humans.. many who do not believe in god though, have gone to fortune tellers.

  because people who are grieving will desperately grasp on to what the think is offering them hope.

  fortune tellers use cold reading. there are demonstrations of just how effective cold reading is on the net. have a look and you will be amazed how easy people are to convince.

  there are Imams speaking out against this, they just don't get media coverage, I listened to one only yesterday.

  Good decent Muslims are horrified by this .

  Did you ever call on Catholics and Protestants to publicly disown the northern ireland situation?

  Ferguson Shooting (Is my thinking on this all wrong.......)

  by out4good3 in

  i think everyone here can agree that walking down the street, even in the middle of the street, is not cause for having a clip emptied in your ass......... i can understand how the black community would be outraged by the injustice of seeing another black man dead in the street at the hands of the police under mysterious circumstances....... i hope that i'm not succumbing to the attempts to assinate the already well impuned character of the dead man...... however.

  i can't help but think that this could all have been avoided by exercising the proper discretion with fore-knowledge of the disadvantages people of color have when they are dealing with law enforcement in the united states.

  it is not as if this disadvantage has only since recently came to light.

  The Reason Why JWs Won't Leave The Cult Is Because They Won't Think!

  they simply refuse to think, to reason, to ponder.

  they are lazy!.

  even if they might feel that something isn't right, they won't research an issue or a question.

  it's funny apparently there have been studies deminatrating that the higher your iq the more likely you are to be succestible to cults...

  I don't think people are too lazy to leave, as we all know you have to be prepared to loose everything, that either takes guts, desperation or I suspect a little of a outsider feeling.....

  just my two cents worth

  If you don't believe in God, Jesus, and everything in the Bible, you are willfully ignorant.

  "i absolutely 100% believe in god, jesus christ and everything recorded in the bible.. the reason why is because of the overwhelming amount of evidence.. there is so much evidence that it has taken me years to examine what has cemented my own convictions.".

  isnt it funny, the arrogance of people preaching turns my stomach now...I am so ashamed of what I was....

  when I was a child, I thought as a child.

  now I am an adult I think as an adult.

  i do not need any book of fairy tales to tell me how to live, and listening to others pass judgement on people is stomach turning.
