  If you were on the Zimmerman jury, how would you vote? 2nd degree murder, manslaughter or innocent?

  One less celebrity Scientologist

  it makes me very happy when a popular celebrity leaves a cult, because it could give others the courage to do it or start to think about leaving.. leah remini played carrie on "the king of queens", and has also been on "saved by the bell", "the talk" and had small parts in other shows.. http://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/leah-remini-leaves-church-of-scientology-calls-it-corrupt-report-2013117.

  leah remini leaves church of scientology, calls it "corrupt": report.

  the church of scientology has one less celebrity among its ranks, according to a new report: leah remini.

  Manslaughter at best. No way you can prove 2nd-degree murder.

  talesin - Lemieux is a co-owner with Ron Burkle who is a multi-billionare. He is there right along side of Lemieux. Although Lemieux is more of the face of the ownership because he has such a history with Pittsburgh as well as the Penguins.

  I think of people like Mark Cuban and Bill Gates in the same way.

  EDIT to add: I guess this really goes back to the point of these guys really aren't job creators. They are selling products people want and hire only based on necessity.

  Food For Logical Thought...

  sometimes we waste hours and hours debating a subject like the flood, and the impossible scientific and evolutionary consequences that it entails.

  we go into great debates about how all of is is possible, what a "kind" means (species, obviously not)... etc.... but believers will not stop believing... so here is something even a child would think of more logically:if god is all powerful and love why would he have not just made the wicked drop dead, painlessly?

  simply, humanly.

  I know the WT has always said that the people who die at Armageddon will know what is happening when it happens. That means that they will be dying agonizing, dreadful, terrible deaths. Keep in mind the JW's rejoice at this. Only one word describes someone like that... sociopath.

  My 8 year old daughter tells me she is an atheist...???

  so since we have not been to a meeting in 6 months or so, i decided to ask my daughter (on the way home from cheerleading practice - yeah i can't believe i am letting her engage in such a worldly activity lol) if she misses going to the kingdom hall.

  she says sometimes because she can't see her friend - but she has made new friends so it doesn't bother her too much.

  so i ask her, "well, what about learning about jehovah?

  All children are born as atheists. She sounds like a smart kid.

  Not all people who are rich who run a business or sell things are greedy. I wouldn't call somebody like Mario Lemieux, who is co-owner of the Pittsburgh Penguins, greedy. Sure, he makes money doing it but when you look at how he runs his business, it is because he genuinely loves hockey and the fans of the game. He is selling a product (the Pittsburgh Penguins) and not being greedy about it at the same time.

  Sure they can! However, blind people are incapable of one of those things... getting married obviously.

  since i have stopped attending meetings i have realized that there are alot of good t.v.

  shows that i have missed as well as channels that i would not watch because they would no doubt be in opposition to the scriptures(har har).. .

  i have been watching the history channel and the discovery channel so much over the last few months that it is amazing.

  Is this a public school? Religion shouldn't be taught in public schools unless it is some sort of comparitive religion class.
