Henry weds Ann and soon she gives him a child. The girl, Elizabeth, is a bitter disappointment to Henry, who desperately wants an heir. Anne promises Henry a son “next time,” but Henry is doubtful.

If 'god' created humans 2b the peak of creation, why don't we have a fraction of the skills of other animals?
Wouldn’t you think that ‘he’ would have given us the best of everything?

We were his "Chosen" children… Made in ‘his’ own image… So that must mean that God is limited in what ‘he’ can perceive as well…

Why would he deny his "chosen children" better vision? Hearing? Strength?

Why, if we are "perfect" would he put the food intake in the same place as the air intake? With all the people that die of choking every year… Don’t you think that is kinda stupid?

Or the reproductive system… Why on earth would he put, to quote Anne McCaffrey, "Put the playground between the waste treatment plants?"

Look at how much damage comes to a woman when she gives birth… All the infections we get because our anus is so close to our vaginal opening.

Some animals live so much longer than humans… Combine that with the fact that the human life span has increased from about 30 to 72+ on average and damn… Why didn’t ‘god’ give us the knowledge to extend our life spans thousands of years ago? Why let his chosen children die at 30 then and die at 70?

How do you explain fossils? Did Jesus just bury them to fu(k with the non believers?

How do you explain the scientific advancement in biology? How is it that we can track the evolution of everything on earth?

How is it that we know that before humans existed, there existed a dinosaur that was the size of a chicken and fed on termites?
 http://www.livescience.com/animals/08092 3-tiny-dinosaur.html

How is it that there is evidence that 90%+ of ALL LIFE to exist on earth has gone extinct only to be replaced by newly evolved creatures to take their place?

"You can’t explain the evolution of the eye" I read in one question about evolution… Um, your repeating information that is OVER 100 YEARS OUT OF DATE.

We CAN explain the evolution of the eye… Light sensing cells on the sides of aquatic animals in the Cambrian Explosion.
 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cambrian

It isn’t as if this stuff is complicated… They even have a show called "Evolve" on History Channel that spells it out so that ANYONE above the age of 5 can comprehend it…
 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolve_(TV_ series)

They use things like Evidence, Years and Years of observation, not turning to "Magic" to explain anything…

See where I’m going with this?

Why do you turn a blind eye to easy to comprehend information when there is no doubt that what is in your holy text is fiction?

How is ALL OF THE REST OF OBSERVABLE REALITY wrong yet a book full of contradictions and outright evil be the ONLY answer?

I’m not a scientist… I go to http://www.livescience.com once a day and watch History Channel…

I was raised a Christian… I have read the Bible….

How can you still insist that all of science is wrong and everything was made with magic?


Can you explain the "Big Bang Theory" in respects something that was not there then suddenly was there. Something had to be there for something to happen. Scientist of evolution say that this happened 13.7 billion+ year ago. How is that possible if nothing existed before this happened. Energy and matter had to exist before heat was used to created this immeasurable amount of heat. Physics demands it and cannot be denied. Something or someone had to be there for that to exist.

why don’t we have a fraction of the skills of other animals?

I assume of course when you talk about the skills of other animals you are referring to those amazing nuclear submarines made by dolphins, the deep space telescope that was recently launched by the chimpanzees, the anti-viral medications that were developed by the earthworms, and the wonderful body of poetry and literature that has been given to us by the bovine-american community.

Humans have brains, and an immortal soul…which is a lot more than any animal has.

BTW Anne McCaffrey is not exactly Thomas Aquinas, and Crystal Singer and the Dragonriders of Pern aren’t exactly of the same intelectual metal as Summa Theologica.

I know, my mom always makes me go to church and i try to explain this to her but she just, I don’t know whats wrong with her….And if God cares so much why dose he watch us suffer every day? If it makes him sad when we kill or sin why dose he make himself sad?

Nightmare, what does it mean.?
I have this nightmare almost every night, its starting to plague me going to sleep. I can relive this nightmare if i close my eyes, it feels very real.

I start in a plane full of faceless figures, i try to get ones attention i touch them on the shoulder and they turn to a dust, i clutch my ears as the same time i hear a human like scream as its turning to dust, for some reason i look at my hands and the dust is eating through my skin, its very graphic (blood ect) ,i wipe it on the wall and the wall of the plan begins to crack and i start to fall out of control. It seems as one of those "falling" dreams at this point, i begin to fall through sky scrapers, i don’t wake up when i hit the ground, i don’t bounce, i seem to just lay lifeless laying in my own blood and begin blending into the ground. I don’t wake up, but can still remember this dream by morning. This whole dream is full of a feeling of absolute terror.


Maybe it’s a phobia of planes or everything not being real or something

Tigerland
Tigerland (2000)

IMDB rating: 7.20

Plot: In September 1971, a platoon of recruits arrives in Ft. Polk, LA, for infantry training before leaving for war. The final week takes place in Tigerland, a swamp similar to Vietnam. Jim Paxton has enlisted; he wants to experience everything and write books later. He befriends Roland Bozz, a cool Texan with a gift for getting into trouble and for helping misfits get discharges. At least one sociopath in the platoon hates Bozz, even as the sergeants grudgingly recognize his leadership abilities. As the platoon heads into its week in Tigerland, Paxton’s body gives out, Bozz makes plans to go AWOL, and the sociopath gets hold of live ammo. Is the Louisiana swamp more dangerous than the DMZ?

Films similar to Jarhead?
I know there are so many war films, but I’m looking for the films which focus more on the training and preparation for war, not really the war itself.

Things like the first episode of ‘Band of Brothers’ and ‘TIGERLAND’ come to mind.


"Tribes" During the Vietnam war, a hippie recruit and sergeant clash at Marine boot camp.

"Battle Cry" A group of young Americans have to grow up fast in Marine boot camp before going to the Pacific to join the fighting.

"The Sands of Iwo Jima" John Wayne plays Sergeant Stryker, a tough as nails Marine who has to prepare some American kids for combat.

"Full Metal Jacket" The first half is about the preparation for war.

"Heartbreak Ridge" Clint Eastwood plays a drill instructor who has to get still more American kids ready to face combat.

"The Fighting 69th" James Cagney and an all-star cast about the New York "Rainbow" division in WW I.

What Are Some Yummy Vegan Snacks?
so…me and my youth group from church are going to snow camp weekend after next. i’m a vegan, and every time i get up there, i realize that i can’t really eat anything ’cause breakfast is like pancakes and eggs and sausage and then lunch and dinner i pretty much just have salad. i know it’s not healthy to get like 300 calories and no protein for these couple days, so i’m going to bring snacks with me this year so i get a good amount of calories and protein and stuff. but i dont know what to bring.

so what are some yummy vegan snacks that would be easy to take with me? (i won’t have access to a fridge, so they have to be able to last without being refridgerated)

also, my youth group kinda has this tradition of bring cans of frosting and plastic spoons and then just like eating frosting. i know it’s not really healthy, but it sounds really good. are there any brands of canned frosting that doesn’t have milk in it?

thanks in advance. y’all are loved.

You might bring small cans of beans to add to the salads. Be sure to bring a small can opener. Another option might be to call the camp ahead of time and explain your situation and see what they can do to accommodate you.
Joy | Jan 31, 2010


you and your parent[s] should plan at least 2 field trips.one trip to the supermarket where your parents shop and the other trip to the health food store that would fit your needs.try the internet,one phrase a search with phrases such as "easy vegan snacks","healthy vegan snacks" and "vegan trail mix".whole grain breads would be a help.

happy cow has information on the health food stores in and around the area where you live as well as information on the vegetarian restaurants and vegan restaurants in and around the area where you live at http://www.happycow.net
jonathan st.thomas | Jan 31, 2010


Hmmm…I’m sure there’s some good granola bars on the market. Newman’s Own has this brand of pretzels packed with protein. Those are pretty tasty. I also love Medjool dates. Those are absolutely delish! Of course some dark chocolate with mint is always a win.

what does this situation seem to you guys as outsiders?
What does this guy want?
so we were seeing 4 ages then we were going as boyf and girlf for a while but all our friends didnt approve and got involved so we decided just to be "seeing" again but he sz he doesnt wantto be seeing any1 else except me so i though ok fair enough. we r both 18 btw. i assumed we could see other peopel but he told me he wouldnt so… then i went to his house last night and as we watched tv he kept hugging me an putting his ams around me but when we wre out walking for like an hour he never held my hand which he normally does and we didnt een kss we kissed once whe i was leaving but it was a peck not even a proper kiss he initiated he sd give me a kiss b4 you go but it felt like we were just friends the entire time. plus last wekend was when we decied to go back to seing each other but he went out with a girl in front of me in a bar, h says he didnt mean for me to see it and i get what he means cz its not as if we are going out but he definately knew i was there was this to make me jealous and i have heard from a lot of people he keeps asking them to ask me do i like him?? he rings and txts me very dasy so im quite confused?
i get the feeling he stil likes his ex but he always assures me he would never go back with her even though he still realy cares about her because i know her and she is crazy she gets so drunk and starts fights and is into drugs an all which is completely different to him becasue he doesnt drink or smoke o anything so i am certain he wouldnt ever go back but he told his friend he still likes her but he also told that friend that he wants me way more? but last night it was if we were just friends?
i though he might have kissed me in his house.. but then again his family was there but the door was closed so….
also yesterday and today he has been ringing and txtng which indicates that he likes me so y be so off?

If your freinds dissaprove who cares
He didn’t kiss u because you said you didn’t want to go out with him
He was hugging you hoping you would change your mind
Go out with him
Ryan | Feb 08, 2010


Nothing beats asking him yourself. Especially when it comes to people telling you he says things he may have never said and in that case I would go talk to him myself but inan understanding sympathetic way because nothing puts off a guy more than a bitchy girl that only thinks about her own feelings. Not that I’m saying you are I’m just saying that’s what it may seem like to him even though you may be understandabley frustrated or confused it’s still no excuse to being mean or upset. Anyway back to this dude, sounds like way to much amateur drama for 18 yr olds. Aren’t you guys a little grown up to still be involved in that stuff? Also I’m a little disturbed that you guys broke up with eachother because your friends didn’t approve. Since when do they decide who your happy with? It’s a little bit hoeish to me to be holding hands and kissing a guy your not dating and still expect to be able to date anybody else you want. My friend was in a situation just like this recently and the guy ended up going back out with his ex girlfriend even as much as he said he wouldn’t. You seem like a nice person but this whole thing is unecessary you need to ask yourself these questions. How much do I really like this guy? Is it worth going through this whole situation for him if I don’t plan on marrying him? Why waste my time if I know it’s going nowhere? Maybe I do plan on marrying him, do I really want to spend the rest of my life with him? But what about him? How does he feel about me? Does he really love me or is this whole thing a waste of time for him too? Why should I try to make things work if I don’t really love him and he doesn’t really love me? Is he gonna make me go through this crap forever? Do I want to deal with and put up with this stuff forever? Basically is it a waste of time? But remember things often grow into something more but if you want to keep looking then chances are he’s not the one and if he is then one way or another you’ll end up back together.

The New Year Parade
The New Year Parade (2008)

IMDB rating: 7.70

Plot: Fact merges with fiction in writer/director Tom Quinn’s deeply personal tale of two teenagers struggling to make sense of their complicated family life after their mother and father decide to separate. While sixteen year-old Kat holds out hope that her parents will eventually work things out, her quiet suffering causes her to become emotionally isolated from both family and friends. Meanwhile, Kat’s brother Jack not only finds himself in the difficult position of having to mediate between mom and dad, but also having to keep track of their fragmented finances. Complicating matters is the fact that Jack plays in the string band his father longs to lead to victory in Philadelphia’s annual Mummer’s Parade.

Directors: Quinn Tom

Actors: Blackway Paul,Conway Andrew,Lyons Greg,Segal Tobias,Voight Nick,Drama,

I have a serious, really dumb, very annoyinnnggg situation, help?
I have a friend of about 4 years who used to be my BEST FRIEND. Which when I say that I just mean that we hung out all the time every day. I could never feel comfortable like, say, crying around him or something. Even though I never really wanted to, I just know that it wasn’t a true best friend relationship. We had fun all the time and was just stupid and laughed and everyone liked us so I thought it was cool, especially since he was the kid that everyone liked.

We were in a band together, he was the drummer but he wasn’t that good. He thought he was INCREDIBLE, but he would never practice and never want to get any better. We got picked up by a record label and producing 1 cd with only 5 songs on it has taken over a year now thanks to his complications. He ended up quitting before we could kick him out so that he could "bow out with some dignity" and started his own acoustic project.

Now the problem with this is that he can’t sing, and he’s not very good on the guitar. He talked our record label in to signing him (because he convinced our producer he would have all the money and with today’s equipment you can make any body sound good) and now he won’t shut up. He doesn’t have a job, doesn’t get out of bed during the day, he just sits in his room with all the lights off and on his laptop on myspace. He thinks he’s awesome cause he’s talking to all these different bands on myspace and whatever and all he does is talk about his music. No matter when or where I talk to him or when anyone talks to him all he does is talk about how he’s doing this or he’s going to do that or he has new management and it’s ALL a lie. He also exaggerates/lies in almost every sentence he says. He says how he’s going to open for mayday parade soon and blah blah, just stuff that everyone knows is a lie and can’t stand him now.

My problem is that I don’t know what to do. He’s annoying everyone and is just worthless right now and I feel bad because he knows that I don’t really want to hang out with him much anymore. He does have a few legit connections with people and I do my own acoustic stuff so I know if he happens to get big at all for some crazy reason that I’ll still be there too. I don’t know. Any ideas and thoughts are welcome. Sorry it’s so long, thanks!
This is the link to his myspace, tell me what you think of the music.

Wild Child
Wild Child (2008)

IMDB rating: 5.90

Plot: A rebellious Malibu princess is shipped off to a strict English boarding school by her father.

Directors: Moore Nick

Actors: Pacar Johnny,Quinn Aidan,Pettyfer Alex,Butterworth Paul,Drama,Romance,

Whats the analysis for the poem ROMANCE by Edgar Allen Poe?!?
Romance, who loves to nod and sing,
With drowsy head and folded wing,
Among the green leaves as they shake
Far down within some shadowy lake,
To me a painted paroquet
Hath been- a most familiar bird-
Taught me my alphabet to say-
To lisp my very earliest word
While in the wild wood I did lie,
A child- with a most knowing eye.
Of late, eternal Condor years
So shake the very Heaven on high
With tumult as they thunder by,
I have no time for idle cares
Through gazing on the unquiet sky.
And when an hour with calmer wings
Its down upon my spirit flings-
That little time with lyre and rhyme
To while away- forbidden things!
My heart would feel to be a crime
Unless it trembled with the strings.

Along the way, Kowalski is guided by Supersoul - a blind DJ with a police radio scanner. Throw in lots of chase scenes, gay hitchhikers, a naked woman riding a motorbike, lots of Mopar and you’ve got a great cult hit from the early 70’s.

A FORK IN THE ROAD

I come from a place where even the land seemed to die of boredom, and the only thing that was smaller than the town itself, was the minds of those who resided there. There never was much to occupy the younger generation, so by the time we were all old enough to buy a packet of cigerettes; we had already entertained ourselves with all the drugs, alcohol, sex & self-provoked drama that we could handle.

I met my ‘first love’ at 15 and together we made plans for our future: We would move away, have a few kids, live happily ever after and give up our dreams without a moments hesitation…

A few years later though, our plans didn’t seem worth the lies, manipulation & games that had begun to play a part in our everyday lives and we eventually parted.

By now I had completely lost sight of those dreams I once had, as well as my confidence & that childish innocence that had kept the world beautiful for so long. I had lost my inspiration & creativity, and with that I had lost myself.

I decided the best place to start when finding oneself was to start within & as I wondered through the avenues of my mind, I came to a curious fork in the road. The fact that it was a fork was not in itself at all unusual, I found myself confronted by choices each day… But there was something new here, something I had never seen before.

I knew that I had come across the first path before, feeling a sense of dejavu as I observed the sign above. It read "New England Highway" & pointed towards a long, black, bitumen road. I had walked this Highway before too, only to find that it was less of a thoroughfare and more of a racetrack which circled the town and lead to nowhere…

The second road however, had eluded me. It too had a sign above, which pointed down a thin, dirt track.

I wondered why someone would build a road so thin, as if to allow only one person at a time & I considered whether this path would also lead me in a circle forevermore…

But the sign above was blank, leaving no answers to my questions & maintaining its mystery. I opened my mouth to exhale a breath that I had held for a little too long & out rushed the butterflies from my stomach, that had been laying dormant since way back in the days when I was happy. I suppose that they were as excited as I.

Something brushed against my side and I turned to find friends and family turning onto the "New England Highway", dissapearing around the first bend that lead to nowhere. I even saw my "first love" among the crowd & I called out to warn him of the dangers & dissapointment that lay ahead… he did not hear me, or would not listen & he too vanished around the first corner. I wondered if he could see the other path… the one with the blank sign above. Could he see but was too afraid, or was it simply not visible to him at all?

I stood for a moment, contemplating where I might go & where I had just been. I must admit I had already made up my mind & I was a little scared of what I might find on the road with the blank sign…
yet that fear was nothing compared to the heartstopping feeling that came with the thought of walking that god damned highway one more time, only to end back up in the town with the dead lands and small minds.

With that thought, I began my journey down road with the blank sign.


i loved it. i have no criticism, constructive or otherwise, i think it’s great.
