RE: George Zimmerman NOT Guilty!!!! Agree or Disagree?

hot day today, found myself and a friend stopping in a place for some good ole burritos and enchiladas,,Guava juice!! And as i fed myself I noticed that the place i was at was not so busy but it was with people of several backgrounds and you could hear at least 5 different languages being spoken. Peaceful. people eating and no chaos or bad feelings. Very nice to know that even after reading all these posts that many are just moving forward and enjoying life.

I wonder if someone could miscarry after being bothered by seemingly mindless polls?

RE: George Zimmerman NOT Guilty!!!! Agree or Disagree?

Yes,he is marked. So as someone said earlier, there will be a retaliation and I suppose people will call that the real justice. Or maybe it will be popular action. If laws are not working they need to be fixed. But when those laws are just ignored and made to be a joke. At that time there is no law. There are people that want that. It is called Anarchy. Can you imagine 300 million living next door that are simply in a free for all? It might not be so great. And people like the one that is far far away will simply laugh. It is not a joke to me. It is to him. Canada is my neighbor. I want that our countries always keep a common goal and at least a friendly relation. maybe I am getting old but I do not want to see things like riots and vigilantes serving there brand of justice.

RE: George Zimmerman NOT Guilty!!!! Agree or Disagree?

@ sofur, It was a question. (Which you did answer a bit of that) but It seems you have a need to offer more useless drivel ( your crusade).
I do not think you have a clue to what is normal in Florida on a night Watch. And I also doubt that you can read minds or know what happened that night, nor do I think you understand the laws of that state and I am pretty sure you did not sit on the jury. You have posted enough for me to know that you don;t have a clue what goes on here in the states and how it differs in so many ways in so many states. Nope. just your self indulgence in arguing something that will have no effect from your posts. thumbs down

Pathetic?? This constant verbal battering is pathetic, ignored it and will do that in the future, but what a load sofie. thumbs down

RE: Should Muslims receive a share of the privileged status of the church of England ?

"Muslims should receive a share of the privileged status of the Church of England."

I see the above in several articles I was looking at on the web but I just don't understand what it means, Literally what this status is. Does it mean a change in law? It is probably very simple but I truly don't comprehend the statement. Thanks to whoever can explain it in simple terms to me.

RE: Should Muslims receive a share of the privileged status of the church of England ?

"quote" still not working here, I am sure there are differnt people that will practice to different degrees. I have talked and made friends with people in Jakarta and here in Portland there is an area I used to live by a a mosque and as I said there was just no comradely, in fact my ex at that time worked in a salon and was highly disrespected on a regular basis, now she was talked to a lot and the flirtation even happened in front of my face. I was not impressed. but that is not isolated to any one people. But this business of not being able to join in at anothers church or attend their funerals of non-muslim is a point as in many of your posts you seem to be grouping the religions together because they "all have good qualities' or something like that. though it may be true they are regulated by their own beliefs. Just as many other religions are as well. that was my main point in one reason why they may not do so well in being endorsed by the church of England.
Pretty basic stuff really.

RE: George Zimmerman NOT Guilty!!!! Agree or Disagree?

I still can't seem to use the "quote" function so I'll just throw this out there. I have read several posts and I can see many that it looks a lot like anyway that they are thinking about the way laws are supposed to be enforced in "their" home state or country. But I was reading some, and I have not read in depth the laws on self defense or the laws in Florida about where the line is drawn. I did see that in 2006 they adopted a 'Stand your ground' which did not apply at the time the article I read was written. But I know in Oregon for instance that line of defense would not work. You have to have a very clear show of the fact that you are in danger of being killed. And not because you confronted someone. But that is here. Each State in the USA is very different, even if we share some commonalities. And the person that mentioned that the man never warned him to "stop or I will shoot",, That is just never going to work for a citizen to say such a thing. That would make it sound like you were hunting someone or you were a law officer taking down a dangerous wanted criminal. But what another said is true, that it really matters to the people of that state. Not other places. I think that is why some people get a bit confused in that the USA is not a single mind set. It is a place where each state takes on completely different ways of living and thinking.....and within that state there is variance as well. but maybe some commonalities that might be shared even by people that disagree on other things.

As for the racial card, it is two individuals from different cultures. The White Man was not there, though I see people still acting as though he needs to pay.(whoever he is)
I have always told friends and practiced this myself, that is that when moving to a new state that you need to really research all the laws, from divorce and common law to things like this and laws on wrongful death and to what point you can defend your home and family without being incarcerated. IT is not the same and these can effect your whole life!

Really? it appears that God's character is quite common in these Religions and includes Goodness, Holiness, Just, Knowing etc.... wink

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sorry it is not quoting at this time. Ok, so I am reading some things here and this is about a funeral, but also it refers to being a "close friend" of Muslim and non. here is the page.


and here is the beginning that caught my eye.

I am a new muslim and my parents and relatives are muslim. One of my relative has dies recently and i was very close to her. I like to know if i can attend her funeral in church? I wont say any words during prayer just sit there.


Praise be to Allaah.

Firstly:

It is not permissible for a Muslim to attend the funeral of a non-Muslim even if it is a relative, because attending a funeral is a right that one Muslim has over another and it is a kind of showing respect, honour and friendship that it is not permissible to show to a kaafir.

Now, I don't know how people of Christian or other faiths feel but this seems to reflect the general feeling I get when I am in public and in a close proximity to Muslim people. I am usually ignored and if I do speak then It is very much a cool response as if to discourage anymore conversation. So if this is in fact a conflict that is going to go on and the church of England is in the business of converting to Islam then maybe they would wish to house and give free rent for simply "keeping up the building". But I doubt that and it would send a message to those of other religions that they are sympathetic with the Muslims in fact more than their own congregation. I think it is a mistake and I doubt it would ever happen. As far as land sales I again do not know their laws. Some places will not sell land to those that are not citizens. So all these things begin to go into play I would think.

RE: America is sporting them in Syria with whom is fighting in Afghanistan are you agree ?

Maybe it is the way you phrased it but I don't truly understand what you are asking. Could you clarify the statement please?
thanks.

RE: Should Muslims receive a share of the privileged status of the church of England ?

As I don't have a clue of the rules in England, the laws that govern this type of thing. I just can't say in accordance to any educated knowledge.

AS for what I believe personally? I tend to feel that a church should stick to what they are teaching. Even using a church for things like bake sales and other festivities is something I was never really so much agreeable with. Of course I am the minority in this but it is just the way I was raised and it kinda stuck. I don't even go to church but I think if i did I would not want the building used to worship other ideals in the down time, I think I would see that place as a place devoted to worshiping or whatever that particular group does and keep it at that.
If it was a case of selling real estate I suppose that once sold it would not be what it was before so the new owners would do what they would.

As far as this particular group and the controversy that goes along I would be weary of sharing a building that I cared about as was said above in reference to those places of worship being attacked.
But as I said earlier I do not know what the standard in England is. Being naive I used to think that those in England followed the Church of the Country and there was no acceptations. I suppose that is not the case. But I think that in the past there have been more than a few that did operate their governments in that way, didn't they?

RE: Who thinks the US should continue giving 8 million dollars a day to Israel?

What is not so funny is that when put to a vote the county adjacent to the next would not even pay a one time 5 dollar fee to help rebuild the Bridge that they themselves use. And yet there is money allotted to all these other places far away with just a passing fancy. I bet if actual people were asked to vote on these things they would have a pretty slim chance of being approved.

uh oh

RE: Has anyone else received it?

LOL, I never saw one like that. I am always too busy deleting the other ones. But no, I was just kidding at that point. But I will admit that I have met some pretty convincing scammers before. One I did not even know until much latter. I do know they were fake but I guess I had nothing to offer. Now that is pretty bad when the scammers even reject you. LOL> wow

RE: Has anyone else received it?

LOL< why cant it work the other way one of these days to where you get surprised and it's a million dollars and a convertible with your dream date. LOL. just once in awhile even! moping
cheers

RE: Has anyone else received it?

you mean it was from CS Staff? or just some random profile? That is one I have not seen in the 5 plus years I have been here....Maybe you should get a prize of sorts. Not sure what kind..maybe a Plaque or something. Seems a little unfair after getting peoples hope up and everything. I guess it is good that it was not in your private email...if so I would have suggested that you change your password fast. Thanks for sharing that one.
handshake

RE: Has anyone else received it?

really Jac? saying they were CS? was it to your private email? I cant imagine this scam working if it just came from a random profile on cs.....jeez, this is weird.
doh wow

RE: Has anyone else received it?

you gotta be kidding me. Where did you get this? here or in your private` email. if it was your private email then someone you gave it to was a scammer. if from here than what profile? First off this site is very explicit about telling you that "NO MONEY" is involved with it. And look at the aol address. And it is signed by someone that worked for pepsi? I would report it. Just because it is here means nothing. You should report this to CS. lots of things wrong with this. I guess one more reason not to give out your email....kinda really sucks though. It is almost to the point that everything online is a scam or some user loser. Very sad indeed.

RE: What Kind Of Man Is This?

But in her words she does not wish this. Though the words are a bit out of order it seemed clear that she was whole heartedly participating in whatever this connection might be called. I think that she wishes to keep the connection with the man but I doubt if he were to walk away that she would be so easy to let go. It seems this way to me anyway. As far as dumping him they have made this a non official connection yet the words say otherwise. lol. As I mentioned before it is very twisted so it seems.

RE: What Kind Of Man Is This?

Your interest in him is probably confusing, even when some told you here you asked why. You should ask yourself that question
of why you are still interested in him. Why not start off fresh. I think, though I am doing my best to get the meaning from your words I would say that I think that even though you say you are not in a relationship with him that because you both have this interest in each other there is a relationship though it is not clear to anyone what it is. I truly suggest that you take care of that part of your life as though I am sure you will find others to place blame on him at the same time you may scare away any person looking for a semi normal future with you. Just be honest with yourself and with him as much as possible. If you want to stay friends than make sure you set down some boundaries for the both of you. And then you also must decide to be up front with that man that comes into your life as he may not want or deserve all the dirty laundry.
Some things to consider.

RE: Grieving process for a hated person?

Since I have no idea who this person was or how they were connected to you (if at all) it is hard to really say. I am led to believe that because you are asking this that though you felt hate that you also had other feelings as well.
I just found out a few days ago about some one that died and I have no reason to grieve. I told another person I know about what happened and he was happy that they were dead. Both of us had been treated bad by this individual and so why would we grieve their death? We did not. I am merely glad that they will not be here to torment others. If the person was also someone that I had some relation to and there was another connection then I think I would feel different. But that is not the case and that is that.

little is known about this. LOL

RE: Apollo Reality.What do u think about these pictures?

It's because they have already been contacted by pilgrims from the future and they have no reason to fund something that they already do and don't want involvement from the general public.

RE: Need a mans point of view

I wonder how he would react if he read this. I have had this kind of situation too. I think that though there are many possibilities that the thing to do is to build your life. Not to base it around that person. If they avoid you like this than I can;t imagine you would not feel the hurt that goes along with it. So, I am saying that you, I and all people deserve better. Well, maybe some of the bad ones might deserve the emptiness that they have left others with. But the main thing is to be good to yourself and if you feel good then stay and if it hurts then do not.
