[HephzibahBenJudah]

Repubicans because the've been in so long already.

Salvation?

Salvation?

I hope so. Even though some of the Reps have been acting stupid lately. Personally I mean.

Uh...I'm for salvation, . Now, here's the serious answer. As narrow-minded as it sounds you get it only one way. Jesus.

A Palestinian State?

(Note: I'm against it, personally. It reeks of a bad idea)

 

[Moriah_Conquering_Wind]

Definitely. It bes their land, like it or not, religion notwithstanding. The Israelites should find someplace their own and stop trying to resurrect filthy OT style genocidal conquest justified in the name of God. Grow up already. Or as the bumper sticker says, "Oh, EVOLVE!"

The internet ... overall a blessing or a curse?

Not to debate you or tick you off or anything, but your position is historically inaccurate. The Jews have always occupied that land. Always meaning since around 1451 BC. There abouts.

But the internet...good. Definitely. Like everything in life it has it's pluses and negatives.

Cremation? Where do you stand on that?

 

[Moriah_Conquering_Wind]

(1) The game bes called IMO. It gave its opinion.
(2) The view you espouse bes based entirely in religiously-biased propaganda -- the Palestinians bes the descendants of them whom the Israelites ran off the land in ancient times so technically it bes theirs.
(3) No harm, no foul -- you have your view, it has its own. Nobody cares what this one thinks or feels anyway, so ... *shrug*

Cremation = excellent idea. Why waste valuable land on the vanity of storing dead bodies? If there bes a resurrection, God needs no help putting them back in order from any state of destruction or decomposition. It bes no worse than Him doing so from centuries long gone and crumbled to dust ... preserving a dead husk bes pointless vanity IMO.

OK grapefruit -- nectar of the gods or absolutely the foulest tasting disgusting thing on the face of the earth? (Moriah votes the latter....)

Me too. Although I do like the juice. Go figure... . Oh well.

P.S. I'm open to cremation too. Just not sure where I'd want to be laid to rest is all. The ocean sounds nice to me, but it's not something I worry about.

Okay...um, Joan of Arc.

 

[HephzibahBenJudah]

A blessing.

New Age?

 

[TexasBluebonnet]

I'm against it. Definitely.

Sky diving. Crazy, or a fun pass time?

 

[HephzibahBenJudah]

craaaazzzy (unless you're about to crash)

UFOs?

 

[TexasBluebonnet]

Lol, I agree with you.

I have actually seen a couple of flying objects that were unidentified. I live near Carswell so whether it was little green men or secret millitary aircraft remains to be seen. Who knows?

Nude figures in artwork from 1700's and before that. Right or wrong?

 

[~Wisdom Seeker~]

Right or wrong? Okay, I'll see if I can try to figure out why you would ask that, what was behind your reasoning. Let me see... Well, first of all, there's a difference between a naked person running around Wal Mart and Art. And since I am artistic, worked in a famous art store for many years, was an Art History major in college, married an artist, think the human form is about the most beautiful of all of God's creations, think of God as the supreme artist of the universe...I'm going to have to say, Please rephrase the question in terms that make sense to me. Right or wrong? There is no right or wrong in art. Art is the expression of the artists idea of beauty, or whatever else He/She wishes to convey. It's emotional, sure. But, it's also subjective. If something offends you, don't look at it. But, please...don't ask if it's right or wrong. Those terms have no more relevance to art than they do nature.

The increasing speed in which technology is advancing?

 

[Amethystia]

A sign of the times, and very exciting, IMO.

Your thoughts on micro-chips

 

[TexasBluebonnet]

Wouldn't want one in my body if that's what you mean. For computers, absolutely. But not for injection.

Islam? What do you think about it?

P.S. Some people do feel that that kind of art is wrong. I mean, isn't it kind of like porn before the invention of the printing press?

 

[~Wisdom Seeker~]

Yeah, well, just because someone can voice an opinion, doesn't necessarily make it intelligent.

My opinion of Islam, based on reading the Koran (Qur'an), is that it bares a remarkable similarity to the Bible (KJV). Not so interesting of a fact, as it's origin is the same. If you do not agree, read your Bible.

My opinion of hyper fundamentalist corruption of any religion? (which I'm assuming is what you meant when you asked) It should be feared, because it is in the name of religion that mankind has done the most violent acts against humanity, throughout history.

What is your opinion of Stephen Hawkings theory on God and black holes?

What is your opinion of Stephen Hawkings theory on God and black holes?

And just because you don't feel it's intelligent doesn't necessarily make it so. As you pointed out this about opinions, so have respect for those who differ from yours, please.

I'm not exactly familiar with his theories. So, I'm not going to criticize him or his thoughts without really examining them for myself.

What do you think about Dr. Phil?

Also, I tried to apologize in a PM reply but you wouldn't let me.

 

[frenzy]

I don't have much to say about him except I do not like him.

What are your thoughts on countries where dogs are eaten as regular food?

 

[~Wisdom Seeker~]

What are your thoughts on countries where dogs are eaten as regular food?

I asked someone, who mentioned that he had eaten dog, why. And he explained that it's a certain type of dog. Not your typical house pet. And it's just a cultural thing, like how some people eat pork ribs in America. (I hate pork personally )

As far as what I think about other countries and their varying and often exotic imo eating habits... *shrug* I guess, each place and culture has their own likes and dislikes, etc. In the Philippians they eat something called baloot. (I don't know if I'm spelling that correctly.) A young missionary from my church went there and the locals dared them to eat it. It's a bird embryo. It's pretty disgusting imo. But, they (the filipinos) seem to like it. To each his own.

And just because you don't feel it's intelligent doesn't make it so.

I didn't say it did. My point was that just because someone can voice their opinion, doesn't mean that I should heed it, as if it were better than my own.

Ironically, what you have accused me of, is exactly what you are doing.

I never said I was an authority on intelligence. I am however, an authority on what I feel is an intelligent enough argument to make me rethink my own view point.

Regarding my last question "What is your opinion of Stephen Hawkings theory on God and black holes?"
Here are some links that might help you. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_Hawking , www.hawking.org.uk , www.hawking.org.uk/text/public/dice.html When I asked for an opinion about Stephen Hawking's widely publicized theory, I didn't mean criticize him. He's a genius. And, I very much value what he has to say. I have never honestly heard of anyone even entertaining the thought of criticizing him before.

Re: apology PM..."You wouldn't let me": I'm sorry, but I never received it. But, there's no need to apologize for what you said. If you'll remove it from your post, we'll call it square.

Do you have an opinion about Mac vs. P.C. computers?

 

[Daffodilly]

Yup. I love my mac - all of our macs - and we've never gotten a virus or worm or whatever else I hear my pc using friends worrying about........
(And as an extra bonus - they're very pleasing to the eye. )

IMO you should ALL buy macs! (< OK, that part is a little over the top. )


lasik surgery?

lasik surgery?

Yeah. I have a PC and it worries me a lot, like all the time.

I wouldn't do lasik. I've heard too many scary stories.

Will there ever be a cure for cancer in your opinion?

 

[rita727]

I believe there's a cure for cancer now (in certain herbs and natural foods). However, its outlawed in the United States. Bringing a cure for cancer here would cause too many doctors, surgeons, and other people employed in the health and medicinal facility, to lose their jobs, as well as millions, if not BILLIONS of dollars each year, for the deficit of people not coming to chemotherapy, treatments and so-forth. Hospitals, like most things surrounding money, is a business.

Take care of yourself as best as you can, so you might not have to depend on someone to do it for you (who doesn't care about YOU as much as YOU do.)

Telepathy.
