Why is it that no Democrat or Republican ever has the guts to call for an end to our disastrous Imperialist foreign policy? Why is it that no Democrat or Republican ever has the guts to actually defend free speech against the advocates of censorship (whether the anti-porn fanatics, the anti-video game cranks, or the FCC)? Why is it that no Democrat or Republican ever stands up to the Federal Reserve as it runs our economy into the ground with insanely low interest rates? Why doesn't any Democrat or Republican stand against the extremist religious groups that seek to impose their bigoted beliefs on the rest of us? Why don't the Democrats and Republicans ever stand up to big business or the labor unions whenever they ask for yet another special privilege or government handout? Why don't the Democrats and Republicans stand up for a person's rights to their own bodies? Why do the Democrats and Republicans support continuing our apartheid system of discrimination against the young?
Seriously, all comments for his crazy religious videos need to be approved by him before they are posted. What's up with that?
Why do so many people link to internet videos while so few link to peer-reviewed scientific articles?
When my husband and I were eating dinner last night he starting talking about how good my food always looks. He has always said that he would never go veg for the animals (he's not a tug-at-the-heartstrings kind of guy), but told me last night that he would consider doing it for environmental reasons. He said that if he saw enough evidence that being a vegetarian or vegan is better for the environment he would reconsider his diet and possibly make the switch! I am veg for ethical/religious reasons so I'm out of touch with this area of veg*nism. Can anyone recommend good websites, videos, books, etc. which discuss this specific connection? I would LOVE for him to even consider going veg...and since he came to me about it I don't feel bad showing him the info =)Thanks in advance, everyone! Wish me luck!!
the finger always gets pointed at the catholic church?I was just on youtube watching the video for "I'm Not Jesus" and looking at the comments that were left and they made me really mad. Many of the people leaving comments assumed that the abuser was a catholic priest (though Corey Taylor never mentions any specific religion, the listener is led to believe that it was a christian pastor of some kind by the mentioning of Jesus in the song). Where in the song does it say that he was sexually abused by a priest. Why couldn't it have been a protestant pastor or even an orthodox priest. Hell, I remember a few years ago the Jehova's Witnesses were in the news for the very same thing. But no one remembers that because they're not catholics.um, LIE, In case you didn't realize it I AM CATHOLIC.

Why do religious people, both Christian and Muslims, think that God intended to have missionaries to “help spread his word” in remote locations of the world? Why doesn’t he manifest himself through “prophets” in these remote locations just like he did with the prophets that wrote the bible? Is it not a bit arrogant to say that you know the truth and they don’t? Being that is what they do; spread the word because that is the “truth.” Christian missionaries are usually white and usually do missionary work in countries in Latin America, where the population is predominantly indigenous and mestizo, and countries in Africa, where the population is predominately black, isn’t that situation, white men teaching non-white men “the way,” a bit disturbing to some. I mean, I have seen and heard about ethnic Christian missionaries, but most of them are white and do missionary work in Latin America and Africa. Muslim missionaries (or converters, whatever they are called or considered) also use arrogant tactics to prove their points. I tried converting to Islam, and people would show me videos of other converts who claimed to be lost before, and would usually slam other religions in the process. Why such animosity? Is there any Christian or Muslim who can truly say that they haven’t been antagonizing when trying to defend their religion or believes?What does 24 mean?John, I didn't say ALL white Christian missionaries are filled with animosity, but a lot are. And what about those individuals who go to these remote places of the world just to simply help individuals, not in the name of God, but rather in the name of humanity? I do know some of those.Also John, you really didn't answer my question: Why do religious people, both Christian and Muslims, think that God intended to have missionaries to “help spread his word” in remote locations of the world? Why doesn’t he manifest himself through “prophets” in these remote locations just like he did with the prophets that wrote the bible?
I'm writting an argumentative paper for English and I want a real good but not to hard of a subject to argue! Ps. can't do any topics on stem cell research, abortion, gay marriage or anything that relates to religious beliefs...My idea were along the lines of whether kids should be able to play video games, should school hand out birth control or whether schools should have high sugar sweets and fod sold at school...i have no idea..gimme some good ones!!
I have felt depressed and disillusioned, too. But I watched this video by Patricia King on extremeprophetic.com and learned a prayer I would love to share with you. Even if you are not religious, or are not a Christian, please just watch this video. It is beautiful and uplifting. I have struggled with bouts of depression for over a year now, but God has always been what truly uplifted me from my troubles and the superficial, unforgiving world.Link to video:http://www.extremeprophetic.com/videoplay.php?id=http://www.propheticmedia.com/video/video_meetjesus/meetjesus_are_you_depressedhigh.wmv
And if she thanks God when she receives an award in a music ceremony for her songs, shouldn't she thank the Devil instead? Not so sure that God likes the booty shake!
I am a 15 years-old boy. I had 'sex' with a 13 years-old boy. he asked money for that. I gave him equally 1000 Jordanian Dinars (1411.17$), I gave it to him in months, meaning: I had it with him probably 9-10 times! He is threatining me of telling his parents (They're as bad as him). They would tell MY parents and I would be doomed! I don't know what to do, He calls me 16 times a day, Sometimes I can't pay him, he tells me to download something to him, (Usually porn movies). I feel guilty, and embarassed. He made my life unbearable. I know I made a serious mistake. (PS: He has a video of me and 7 recordings. so I can't deny him), I am a weak personality. So I can't make a fight as I know that I would make these things certainly worse. I have already thought of suicide twice. But I wont (Religious issues)I have been so "crestfallen" these days. I don't talk, eat or even sleep. I lost 20 pounds since it happened (Around August or September 2007).I am desperate for some help.
I did not create this list but what do you think about this list?.....source below.....http://www.soulbounce.com/soul/2008/04/25_things_that_killed_urban_mu.php25 Things That Killed (and are Still Killing) Urban MusicIn the midst of everyone's declarations that "Hip Hop is Dead" we somehow forgot the slow death that is spreading across all aspects of "urban" music, as the legacy of Soul and its close cousins has devolved into a writhing mass of commercialism, homogenization, thuggification and overall laziness. Now, in no particular order, we present to you the "25 Things That Killed (and are Still Killing) Urban Music" because you love lists and SoulBounce isn't afraid to say what you're thinking. Keep in mind that there will be some overlap, as certain items gave way to others that deserve their own spanking.1. The End of the "Event" Album: There was a time when albums encompassed an era that included a look, a feel, and a style that informed an artist's videos and live performances for as long as they (or the label) could squeeze revenue from a project by releasing singles. The "event" album can chiefly be credited to Jacksons Michael and Janet, who have entire timelines built around the idea of a "Thriller Era" or a "Rhythm Nation Era". Nowadays, instead of treating albums as what they are (a collection of songs with one unifying theme) artists are more likely to seek out the most ubiquitous Hip Hop beatmakers of the moment and record over a hundred songs from which to "pick" singles. Also, when you have artists that are too scared to release music with a healthy 3-5 year gap in between, the lines to between albums begin to blur, and the eras become indistinguishable, rendering them null.2. Big Name Hip Hop Producers: With respect due to the beatmakers that introduce a track with the name of their production imprint, ad-lib all over it, and insert themselves as guest rappers 50% of the time, they overshadow the actual vocalist of a song. We certainly don't begrudge any of them the right to employment, but when an artist has to do an inventory of who produced her project to qualifiy it instead of telling us what the album is about, we have to take exception. Reality check: If you're trying to goad me into a purchasing your album because you have a Pharrell beat on it and I'm a Pharrell fan, then that's the only song I'm buying. Your album has to have legs of its own.3. Deaths of The Notorious B.I.G. & 2Pac: You can probably draw a direct line from the deaths of Biggie and 'Pac to the current state of Hip Hop. The two of them cultivated a style that even a decade later is re- and misappropriated to the nth. Perhaps if they were still alive, they'd have pushed the genre forward. Or maybe they'd be wack and irrelevant. Hey, at least they died while they were still good.4. "Neo-Soul": We understand the emergence of the "neo-soul" genre as a response to the growing commercialization of modern R&B. But even the artists lumped into this category began to the see that the term was as much a marketing ploy as the very things they eschewed. The language used to describe these artists ranged from "organic" to "avant garde" and any press materials would claim that he/she looks up to Stevie, Marvin and Donnie. And don't stand too close to the stage lest you get burned by the candles and frankencense! Before long, the audience would be fooled and we would either grow to love or loathe this music, defending the art of its purveyors and loudly wondering why they couldn't move as many units as their mainstream counterparts. Simply put, "neo-soul" has become a term used by people to describe music they respect but would never buy.5. Reality TV: Aside from the manufactured Pop idols that are struggling to stay signed within their prize contracts, we have to question the motives of Sean Combs, Robin Antin and Missy Elliott, who have all aped the reality television format to generate acts for their own stable of artists. To be sure, reality TV has replaced proper Artist Development as a means for these entrepreneurs to cash in, stroke their egos and embarrass people who, 9 times out of 10, deserve it. Speaking of which, what's O'so Krispie doing?6. Lazy A&R Departments: Did you know that A&R people are also responsible for Artist Development? Probably not, since these days a newly-signed artist is more likely to be stripped of their identity and given one that falls in step with what's popular or, even worse, none at all. Take Cheri Dennis for example. While her album has a respectable amount of solid R&B tracks, we still don't know who Cheri Dennis is, what sets her apart from everyone else or even what she sounds like. But, she has earned the distinction of being signed to her label for nearly a decade with no album to speak of. Did the A&R department utilize that time by playing Spades? Probably.7. Scarface and The Untouchables: Okay, rapper, we get it, Scarface and The Untouchables are the greatest movies ever made; your life in celluloid, even. But, if you look close enough, you'll come to learn that you are neither Pacino or De Niro and should stop emulating them by using audio clips from the films in your interludes and the script in your lyrics. Too many of you are still doing this after all these years. Also, tell members of your crew to stop calling themselves "Ness" and "Nitti". Just, please, cut it out. Thank you.8. Thugs: Not only do we have "Studio Thugs" that use de Palma films to inform their image (see above) but there's the "Corporate Thug" (robs an artist of his publishing and signs him to a hellified contract he could never fulfill) and the questionable "R&B Thug", which happened somewhere between R. Kelly and Jodeci and continues to this day. Along the way, labels got the bright idea that the way to a woman's heart was by selling drugs and beating up people. Sexy! This trend has also given rise to something else we'll never understand: "R&B Beef", in which two singers talk trash about each other to the media. Unfortunately, this doesn't result in a "sing-off" but pretty much makes everyone involved look kind of retarded.9. Crime: Between violating probation, not paying child support, being pulled over and caught with an ounce of weed or cocaine, assaulting nail technicians, shooting people, tossing concertgoers off the stage, committing perjury, tax evasion, and urinating on minors, we have to wonder if being a good artist means being a bad citizen.10. Ringtones: "Real Music Ringtones" were created as a way to distinguish your ringing cellular from someone else's while also bringing you closer to your favorite artist. Unfortunately, the labels realized this was the only way to generate revenue and started making music for the sole purpose of selling ringtones. Now, we have stripped-down keyboard beats and grunts and "yaahhs" instead of lyrics. Is that my cellphone ringing or yours? We'll never know, because we both downloaded Soulja Boy.11. Lack of Music Programs in Schools: Programs like Garage Band have not only made producers lazy, but undercut the importance of immersing young would-be musicians in music history as well as basic composition. Unless a popular musician was trained in the church, they probably lucked into a contract without knowing how to write, play an instrument, or worse, sing a note.12. BET (and by extension its corporate owner) is on a mission to not only destroy urban music, but poison the perception of Black people in the process. If we were to use this network as a guide (and people unfortunately do), we would believe that "drug dealer > rapper > pimp" is a logical career path, alcoholic beverages can be used as bodysplash, women of exotic or indeterminate race are the standard of beauty, darker-skinned women are only valuable if they have a big ass and a tiny waist, a person's worth can only be determined by what they drive and what they wear, you ain't sh*t if you're over 30, and a week's worth of debauchery and decadence can be undone with a Sunday marathon of religious programming. It's funny because it's true.13. The Radio: Used to be, you would turn on the radio and hear a variety of artists with a variety of sounds. But due to the "Clear Channeling" of Urban Radio, you'll hear a T-Pain song followed by 15 minutes of commercials, followed by a song featuring T-Pain, some shucking and jiving by unbearable radio personalities for five minutes, then something that resembles a T-Pain song, but isn't because just about everyone sounds like T-Pain now. And it's probably a commercial.14. Spineless Club DJs: If you're going out to a club, you might as well sit in the house and blast the radio instead of paying the inflated cover charge. Once upon a time, DJs were tastemakers, but now so many of them are afraid they'll clear the floor by spinning something new that they just play album versions of songs people are tired of but are too drunk to notice. Then, they add insult to injury by showing off their "skills" with poorly-timed scratches, blends that don't line up and screaming over the music. And consider yourself lucky if you happen upon a DJ with ACTUAL! VINYL! RECORDS!15. Mainstream Hip Hop Publications: Back in the 90's, holding one of these rags in your hands was like holding a monthly Bible to all things Hip Hop and R&B. Now, they've all been relegated to chasing blogs and reiterating things we already knew weeks ahead instead of properly utilizing the print medium to do something unique. Changes in personnel and ownership aside, they were already marching towards irrelevance. Even the covers suck now, but you probably won't get the damn thing delivered on time in order to find out.16. Bloggers: Guilty as charged! Trifle few of us are qualified to be writing about music with any authority, especially since most of the people behind blogs haven't been alive long enough to have a healthy perspective on the subject. Although it can be argued that record companies rely on blogs for buzz, most of the music championed by popular websites is the same music that would've gotten attention anyway. Also, we have to point out that the commenting system has turned discussions about music into an unholy war of "haters" versus "stans", where everyone is an expert on what they hate or love, but have no concept of anything else including real life. Oh, and providing your readers with the URL to full album leaks doesn't "help" the artist.17. Youtube & Myspace: On the Internet, everyone is a star (thank you, thank you). But while sites like Myspace and Youtube can provide mainstream and indie musicians with a means of cultivating and connecting with an audience, it becomes a chore to sort through the muck of people with a webcam and a login classifying themselves as "artists". And damn you all to Hell for having the crap you made in Grandma's basement on auto-play.18. Singing Rappers, Acting Rappers & Rapping Athletes: We'll keep this short. Every now and then you'll happen upon someone that has been able to organically transition from one career to another. Will and Latifah come to mind. To everyone else (coughCurtiscough), stay in your lane. Again, we don't begrudge anyone the chance to make some extra ends; it just shouldn't be at the expense of the audience.19. The End of Real Singing Groups: Once upon a time, you not only had singing groups that weren't put together by a reality show, but wherein each member contributed a distinct voice or purpose to the group. Sometimes they had members that barely sang a note, but who actually produced or wrote the song. Point is, throwing a bunch of strangers in a house with one phone and giving them makeovers doesn't create synergy. Also, name a recent singing group that wasn't created for a television show or for the purpose of launching someone's solo career. Exactly.20. "Kanyitis" is a temporary, yet frequent, illness that afflicts singers and rappers alike, wherein an artist waits until the precise moment they are in front of a camera, microphone or reporter to say something shocking and stupid, which will then be quoted by bloggers and searched on Youtube ad nauseum. Then the artist has to explain what they "really" meant, but by that time everyone already thinks they're nuts and doesn't care about a retraction.21. Death of Aaliyah: Not that Aaliyah took an entire genre of music with her to the grave, but it can be argued that her passing made way for a wave of young, pretty dancers with okay voices and no personality. Only difference between them and Aaliyah is, Aaliyah had personality along with talent, ideas and a willingness to experiment. Also, she wasn't so full of herself.22. Money: Even worse than artists releasing garbage because they know it sells is the audience's obsession with how much an artist makes. Unfortunately, we've given lack of artistry a pass because someone's "making that paper", which totally undermines the hard work of true creative talents that are constantly writing, recording, and performing. When I buy an album I don't want to hear an entrepreneur, which brings us to--23. Products & Brands: Whether rappers and singers are inserting the names of designer alcoholic beverages into their lyrics or cable companies are inserting rappers and singers in their ad campaigns, things come to a point where we need to start realizing how owned these artists are. There's a thin line between businessperson and corporate slave. We'd also like to reiterate a fact that has been pointed out time and time again over the past 10 years: If you can't pronounce it, why should we care that you're wearing it, driving it, or drinking it?24. People That Aren't in Any Way Associated with Music: Opportunities in the industry are built on connections and there's almost never been a time when someone didn't rise to stardom on someone else's coattails. But now, things have gotten way out of hand. Why be an actual artist when you can be someone that danced in videos, screwed a bunch of rappers and got a book deal? Or, you can be a butler or Executive In Charge of Umbrella-Carrying? Or, worse, be the "Fifth Mic" guy on stage and reliable instigator? Who needs a recording studio? 25. Teenagers: Young people have always had the power to determine trends in all genres of music, which is why corporations defer to them. However, today's teenagers seem to be slightly more insipid than they were in previous generations and definitely have a shorter attention span. Whether it's the teens themselves driving the garbage labels are releasing, or the labels that are leading teens down a path of ignorance, is totally up for debate. It's the chicken/egg question in its purest form.
do you atheists and nonbelievers consider him weak for finally breaking down and praying for divine intervention? He says he wasnt 'religious' but asked for help from God. Many atheists and nonbelievers on here have constantly said they would never ask God for help. Just wondering.The video is on yahoo right now. Man was trapped in elevator over the weekend. 41 hours!thats not the question Ptah. im asking if people think he was weak in asking God for help. personally, however, its my belief God helped him out.Fire, i couldnt care less if you believe in a deity. thats not the question. stick to the question at hand people. stop stepping around it.
Do you think that this is ethical for anyone to do. List to the happy poar of the crowd and watch the reaction of the people behind Obama laughing. Watch the gleeful biting of his upper lip that Obama does. How does all this make you feel ?? Here's the video link,.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UoOFp-RDpvM
Like any that this dude is talking about:http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=9072629460246678761I heard that Mr. Disney was a perv and had some sexual subliminal messages in some of the movies, and that some of the current ones have some other maybe religious or astrological type meanings behind them.And that maybe Minnie Mouse could have been dressed up like an Amanita Muscaria Mushroom, which some believe is the actual Holy Grail?http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VKCg1AXsr9s&feature=relatedhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8YA6f8c07mQ&feature=related*full version:http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=825942553983229569&q=the+pharmacratic+inquisition&ei=RKoWSMSyHKLQ4AKSoejxBg
Bro's and sisters im at home alone right now.I've had problems with controlling myself about watching porn videos and websites.I have tried,and tried and tried since last year of june27th.The longest i went w/o watching was 2months from december-january.Recently it was 3 weeks.And now i havent since Monday so today is my 3rd day and i wanna continue this for the rest of my life but what can i do everytime i get the urge or the thinkin.Please dont tell me get off the computer because im not i do other things on the computer like taking care of stock on stock market and stuff so i cant leave the computer and no im not married and dont tell me to get married i need an answer FOR RIGHT NOW!!Dont tell me to fast because i will and its too late for today to fast so what can i do?Please answer me with logical and religious reasons and stuff like punishments and about fearing Allah something to take my mind off that stuff Alhamdulil i feel good when i dont do it but i dont wanna do it.Please
Just a short video clip that totally blew my mind. Stumbled across it in the religious section. Needless to say I think I found myself a new hero.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jk0ht0KyNP4&feature=relatedAnd yes I am being 100% serious, this is amazing, I had no clue, that gal has some guts:)What, why I think it's so amazing? Because it challenges both the gay community as well as the religious front. I safely can't say that I have ever seen anything even close to what Sister Paula is doing. She explains what she is about in the interview.
OK now no more "religious persecution" , "Please give us our kids back so we can raise them then give them to OLD men to rape @ puberty" is may as well what the "moms" should be saying. I just saw a video of Warren Jeffs' nephew saying he was raped by Warren @ 6 years old. I don't think HE'S lying. I think the "mothers" are also putting on an act & reading from scripts given to them by them. FINALLY you KNOW those houses were cleaned up to look somewhat "normal" when the reporters came. They still looked like sucky cramped living quaters for women & children while the "Husband/Father" has a HUGE bedroom probably & picks which wife want to join him that night. Can we STOP with religious persecution & focus on PROSECUTION?
Been dieting since October 2007. Lost 50 pounds over the first 4 months; only 5 in the past 3 months. I walk 2 miles a day, bike ride for 2 miles, and then alternate between The Firm's Hi-Def Scult (25 minute video, using 8 pound weights--certain moves combine weights for a total of 16 pounds) and Pilates Bun and Thigh (18 minute video). I do not cheat on my diet and am religious in my exercise routine. Any suggestions?
Well... this is a rather odd question, but it's been bothering me for ages. You know those Weebl toys (weebls wobble but they don't fall down!) with the big bottoms? My brother, sister and I all have memories of their being a religious movie about a weeble Jesus, or possibly just a toy with a commercial, however, when we tried looking it up we couldn't find any mention of it. Does anyone else remember this- or have a link to a sight or video from it?
I see both Christians and Atheists (for example only) telling their children exactly what to and what not to believe.Now that is their right as a parent to instill in their children whatever beliefs they choose. What I was wondering is can this go too far? I submit to you a video from trading spouses I believe it was.http://youtube.com/watch?v=q3mDLsyn6ns&feature=relatedNow I see that as child abuse. The little one is terrified, the older child was blamed for the "dark-sidedness" etc etc etc. I was wondering what your opinion of it was.Is this abuse? why or why not? And what if any responsibility does society have to those children?

Obama is trying to sell himself as a devout religious person now. Check out the video link below.?Do you think that this is ethical for anyone to do. Listen to the happy roar of the crowd and watch the reaction of the people behind Obama laughing. Watch the gleeful biting of his upper lip that Obama does. How does all this make you feel ?? Here's the video link,.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UoOFp-RDpvMHere is the first part of someones responce. I am not going to going into the site given, to feed your prejudicial views.(Is this the conclusion jumping we can expect if Obama is elected?)
I'm sick of that guy (who has no scientific qualifications) using this kind of thing to further his own agenda, regardless of the distortion of the truth in his video, whether global warming is real or not... he doesn't have ANY proof of whether it is linked or not, anymore than the religious people do.http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AtGSpMnQxqBIA1fSJBs.ILvty6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20080507122859AAYu7wK&show=7#profile-info-WG1AVMRIaacan't anyone see the paralells between global warming evangelists and religious leaders?go ahead and call me a heretic, but the jury's still out for both things. (and it's just an excuse to hike up oil prices and make more nuclear reactors)global warming's just religion for atheists. It's directly parallel to the fall in religion in europe.I also recomend the great global warmng swindle.but I said regardless of whether it's real or not, he's using it to further his own cause.lol jonjon "I hate to be rude" it's thoroughly enjoyable to be rude, just admit it!melting media, my point was his use of a tradgedy to further his own case. He's a politician.whether Global warming's real or not, like I say, cll me a 'Heretic'The agenda is to use fear as a controling factor of the population.. to keep you worried about fossilfuels and terrorists so they can take your money and spend it on wars.

That sounds like a lot of fun. It would be a whole world based on religion. And you would have to pick a religion when you played it, and you could go around making friends and instead of giving thumbs down or reporting people, you could just go up and fight people. You could have all of the flexibility grand theft auto has. You could start religious gangs, and go knock on peoples doors spreading religious crap. You could even vandalize churches. That sounds fun. What do you think?Yes, vandalizing churches does sound fun to me. It would be a blast. And, you could go up and ask people questions, and get answers back. That way you could meet people face to face. And you could run them over with your car if you aren't pleased with their answers. That should teach people to think before they answer.No F C, I didn't leave a t out of my avatar name. Have you never heard of that movie?
It was about the sun being the genesis of all religious myth. Can anyone tell me the name of that video or how to access it again?...thanks

Islamic Terrorism… what do people say about them?The video here : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uFg4hllJnw0 will tell us how cruel this kind of religious fanatics who covers behind the name of Islam only topropagate their own motives of hate and destructions against humanity and against their fellow law-abiding muslims. Are you goin’ to entrust your soul and live togetherwith these religious fanatics? They used to cry for PEACE…only to decieve people with their fatal motives.http://sword44.blogspot.com
I am not talking about marrying children or forced marriages, I am talking about consenting adults..I was just looking at a video and it was stating that there was a question about whether it was legal to prohibit polygamy between consenting adults when their religion approved it. I know that Christianity prohibits it and the laws in the US were based upon the Bible.. So do you think that consenting adults should be able to have polygamous marriages when it is their religious belief?The Bible speaks against it, but if the laws of marriage are Bible based and they want to throw the Bible out then polygamy between consenting adults comes into question. Marriage one by one and divorce would be the same.If this law isn´t Bible based, then where does it come from, as many cultures and religions permit multiple wives..
“How smooth must be the language of the whites, when they can make right look like wrong, and wrong like right,” Blackhawk once stated. As a born leader and true representative of the Native American population, Blackhawk understood the impact of the white people within the minority community. Through the works of the media and Hollywood, American Indians perceive themselves in a distorted light, which as a consequence leads them to alter their personal view of the American Dream.Although there are many recreations of the “redskin”, a prominent one is the aspect of sports teams. Groups such as the Washington Redskins, the Florida Seminoles and the Cleveland Indians incorrectly depict the culture. With dancing and whooping in abundance at the games, the Native American population feels that they are being represented in an erroneous manner. There is a certain video on YouTube, which is done by a student, that shows how it would be if religious figureheads were represented in what some what call a sacrilegious comportment. It was meant to demonstrate how the broadcasting world forces the Native people to think with such a narrow spectrum, that they must act in a certain way. As a child a little girl so conveniently named Rebecca knew that she was part American Indian—Cherokee to be exact. Her parents never forced the culture onto her, but she soon picked up on what the media was blatantly shoving in her face. She soon started to wear “war paint”, build wigwams and fight cowboys. As she grew a bit older she realized that that was not an accurate representation of her ancestors. With such relative ease she was flung into a role that she thought it was as normal as any other. Another Native American named Sherman Alexie, is very keen on the role that the media played within his life. “In the movies, Indians are always accompanied by ominous music. And I’ve seen so many Indian movies that I feel like I’m constantly accompanied by ominous music. I always feel that something bad is about to happen” (I hated, np). To feel that one is being followed by a musical rendition is a sure sign that Hollywood wrongly illustrates Native Americans. The eerie sound that tags along with Alexie is like the unnatural view of the Native’s American Dream. Of course there were “Native American” heroes such as John Wayne, Chuck Connors and Burt Reynolds who acted as Indians, where they, “conveniently ignored the fact that Tom Laughlin, the actor who played Billy Jack was definitely not Indian” (I hated np). One reason that the Native Americans view themselves in a hazy way is due to the fact that many of them are cut off from the majority of society. Their major connection is through the sports that they watch and the television and movies that they see. Because their lifestyle is set so far apart from the “normal” society, they only way for them to “truly” view themselves is through Hollywood. When Hollywood gives an imperfect illustration of the American Indian culture, the Natives see that flawed portrayal as what is correct. The dream of the rest of society is not a true representation of minority groups because it covers the “broad spectrum” of the dominant culture, and does not consider the ethnic groups with less influence upon the greater American lifestyle. “…while this dream may be a generalized expression of the ambitions of many persons in this society, it substantially misses the ambitions of many Native Americans… it is in some sense a subsidiary dream, ancillary to a larger set of concerns” (Cornell np). With the occurrence of the prevailing ethnicity threatening to smother out the accurate depiction of the American Indian American Dream, Hollywood must start to portray the ethnic group in a more positive and truthful manner.Through the actions of Hollywood and media, American Indians have been forced to identify themselves with an incorrect representation, which consequently also leads them to modify their individual observation of the American Dream. It has become drastically necessary to adjust the views of minority groups such as the Native Americans to give them an accurate representation of who they truly are and not a stereotypical version that can alter the way that the Natives distinguish themselves. After all, with so many celebrities with their strong opinions on wrongdoings in the world, why can the United States hope for a star to truthfully depict the American Indian population in a positive light?I understand that completely (I'm Cherokee), but my english teacher is conviced that every single native american feels that way. I'm sorry it came out condescending, but my teacher is basically expecting something like that, or else I will not receive a good grade
I basically got my ass reamed on here for mentioning buying a ten dollar bag of weed. It's not that bad (as long as it isn't laced). I don't see a problem of smoking a joint and jamming out to some hard rock, playing video games, and so on. I do understand it if u r smoking and doing stupid shit but it is no worse than alchohol. It's 100% natural (If It's Not Laced), sure it can hurt you're lungs, but so do cigarettes, and alchohol destroys your liver so why is pot even illegal. It couldn;'t be the fact that the government can't tax it cuz u could grow it, our government isn't that crooked (LOL LOL). I just don't understand why so many people are actually against it. Have any of u that r bitching even tried it, I'm sure you've drank so what is the problem? You can't say it's a religious thing cuz god says in the bible that every herb was put here for a reason and whether you smoke it or eat it you get high. So therefore my point is pot is not as bad as some people make it out to be!420

How can you even think Obama is "anti-america"? Because of his pastor? Religious figures like Wright are mentally ill! Don't judge the disabled so swiftly! I say that because anyone who truely believes there is some magical place called heaven or some ultra-torturious place called hell is mentally disabled. People are Democrat or Replublican because of the core values each party bring to the table. I can't understand how someone could think that because their "favorite" democrat didn't win the Replublican candidate would be a better fit!!! HELLO, do you really think John McCain would give a crap about what the Democrats want and need? NO. SO essentailly you're either a Hillacrat or someone that whines win they loss.

You have only seen a giant sack of shit over your eyelids"The BibleThe Calendar revolves around Jesus Christs birth (B.C. A.D.)" -- B.C. stands for Before Common Era, douchebag.
I am talking about the basic sound of the voice in terms of resonance, intonation, rhythm, etc. - the terms that voice pathologists would use. If it is possible for a Caucasian to develop the basic voice sound of a person of color (in any culture), then how would a person do that?Also, where are some clips of African-American women on the web that would be good to use for voice practice. Please do not just say "look on YouTube," but give the complete qualified URLs leading directly to each clip and video you can find. I am not talking about profanity-laden, Ebonics, but just normal speech, preferably things like religious services, professional speech, speeches, recitals, newscasts, lectures, etc.Morpheus - I respect that. But that will not keep me from trying to fit in as an African American, and I won't give up until I achieve something fairly close. However, this has nothing to do with what I asked in the title of my question.The white basketball player doesn't *sound* Black. He sounds like a White man using Black slang. His whiny tenor voice is that of a White man. The other guy had the typical muffled and "darker" (lower resonant frequency) sound of an African-American.Saying "what up dawg" has nothing to do with the actual sound of the voice itself or the bone structure of the face. The sinuses are shaped differently across different racial groups. But I need to know what vocal parameters F1-F5 are different so I can learn to adjust those to make up for what I don't have in bone structure. It is possible, since any man can learn to sound like a woman by raising the pitch 5 notes and raising the resonance, for instance.Besides, I asked for links to the voices of Black women, so I can develop the rhythm, resonance, pitch, and intonation. When trying to copy something, you should start with the original.Mark Twain approximated the SPEECH of a Black person, not the VOICE. I said SOUND. Sound is physical. It is determined by the vocal folds and the shapes of the different parts of the chest, throat, sinuses, face, and head. Look at different people. Who typically has the short broad nose? Whose jaws protrude a tad more?It looks like I will need to do the first level research and record voices of Caucasians and African Americans, then run them through a spectrogram. Then I can take the averages of the F0-F5 frequencies by group and see what is different. Really, I don't care if it is physical or cultural. I just want to know what the actual differences are in the most technical and detailed terms possible.Actually, I just found some clips of Black women speakers, and I believe I can approximate the tone, resonance, pitch, rhythm, volume, etc., of their voices. I found some with transcripts, and I believe with many hours of practice, I could consistently produce such tones.
To American citizens, do you know?Please watch this, it is short and comment about how does it make you feel as part of the "puppet show" proposed here? I am not an American, i just want to know what your position is. Do you want to be one of those who would ask someone "why do you care so much about the people? ". ?I am aware i am in the R&S section, but i think this is relevant. I just want the voice of the American people, what religious group you are is does not matter.Aaron Russo=http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x3qiv7_aaron-russo-sur-le-911-le-cfr-et-ro_politicsand i have watched zeigeist of course. I would like to know what are you as citizens of this country going to do ? And please don´t even think that there is nothing u can do..!@Ladypost, these kinds of informations have been around for some time, long before the campains went on.
religious, spiritual or humanitarian?http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m36OWibR6nk
I'm not really talking about the religious parts in this video or the parts about God.Link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vEXGKzH0F9c
I put "SOME" in caps for a reason..I care about Religion because of this video:http://youtube.com/watch?v=w4fQA9mt-MgTheists What are your reasons?and telling us that we are lost sheep and trying to save us from Hell is not a valid reason...shellybear: I posted that video for a reason -.-
Put a religious billboard up in an area with lots of foot traffic. The billboard would be one with a simple religious message like, “Jesus loves you,” or something typically cheesy like that. There would be hidden cameras that record the facial expressions of people as they read the words on the billboard. I predict that it would be a great way to predict the IQ levels of people. The people with low IQ’s would look at the sign, smile and maybe tilt their heads whilst the people with average to high IQ’s would roll their eyes at the sign or point and laugh. Do you think this would be interesting? Would it make a good youtube video?
Why is there an ideology amongst the religious that kids be allowed to watch violence in cartoons, video games, and on regular TV... but its the actual seeing of a female boob that will turn them into some kind of crazed psychopath?Well, let me clarify.How bent do you think the Pat Robertsons of the world would be if they started showing bare-chested females on television? And yet, an episode of CSI showing the gross anatomy of a murder is A-OK? How does nudity corrupt? ANYONE can look at themselves naked... but not everyone gets to look at themselves with their belly sliced open.
