  1. drop a bomb to save a life everything has to be th eUS business. no wonder the whole world hates you and create more terrorism all over the globe :tdown::tdown: btw anti war protesters were arrested yesterday outside white house for "commemorating" iraq war anniversary. fucking hypocrite.
  2. i hope media is hyping about radiation could reach the US.. anyway no looting, raping, murdering etc. kinda refreshing to watch after katrina and haiti [ame] [/ame]
  3. i thought guantanamo had no trials to begin with and locked up for years sucks what people have to go through.. watch in the name of the father..i bet the trials won't be fair either.
  4. damn i thought the death toll was only few hundreds (like recent New Zealand earthquake) but now i hear it could reach more than a thousand?? RIP to those who perished
  5. eh for me i'm kinda tired of hearing about kate middleton. media wants to create 2nd diana and it's so obvious. and all the ridiculous items they try to sell too from cheap plastic wedding plates to kate middleton's doll for $200 lol
  6. 2,300 americans go missing every day 300,000 ppl die every day world wide i'd say leave charlie alone if drugs make him happy. american media is too nosey
  7. that sounds better to me i've avoided her movies since tomb raider but i think it'll suit her as a catwoman more than hathaway.
  8. happy belated birthday!
  9. Scientists poke holes in NASA’s arsenic-eating microbe discovery http://news.yahoo.com/s/yblog_thelookout/20101208/sc_yblog_thelookout/scientists-poking-holes-in-nasas-arsenic-eating-microbe-discovery
  10. i saw this on news. the catholic league put up a counter billboard ($18,000) to retaliate the atheists america billboard ($20,000) but honestly both are childish spending that kind of money to insult each other. but it's their money, their business. no one's forcing each other to look at it so.
  11. --The young ladies were going through the scanner one by one, and every time one went through, this guys face was getting redder and redder.-- lmao.. --"What do you want to do, get blown up by a goddamn Arab at 30,000 feet or we get to see your private parts? It's up to you, the ball's in your park," head of the TSA's scanning department, Rodney Schroeder, told CNN.-- that's not even logical. if he believes it's the arabs, then why molest everyone else who don't want to get scanned. how's patting down a 3 year old blonde girl helps anything? ridiculous.

  12. SK has too much to lose from this but it seems like SK and the US are the ones provoking NK since early this year..they have yet to prove early attacks that killed 46 SK sailors in march was done by NK. SK's capital has 10 million ppl..and near cities/province of total 25 million, half of SK's population all crammed up just southwest to NK border. SK doesn't even have nukes to retaliate (US won't allow it) so one button from NK and it'll be all over, even if China and US intervene, it'll be too late for SK. i just wish US would let SK and Japan build nukes and leave E.Asia and stop playing world police. it just makes NK and China nervous, nothing more.
  13. most religions don't teach permanent hell. rather annihilationism or universalism are more popular among modern christians today imo. i don't even think orthodox jews believe in afterlife. close/similar/other religions see purgatory or reincarnation as alternative punishment.it took me more than a decade to convert to a religion that has a concept of eternal hell. that wasn't the only reason i converted either. but then again, if ppl don't believe in hell, it shouldn't bother them at all nor generalize in thinking ppl only convert because they are scared of only that. i took a world religion class some time back (it's more like a history class i had little choice). i think it was good for me. it just gives you a wide understanding of tolerance and awareness of different culture/religion, and gives insight to those who never had a chance to step outside of the US in years. i had no tolerance for other religions before, but it gave me a sense that not everyone has to believe in samething to get along, whether you are religious, nonreligious or not. sure, i still think they are wrong but at least i can be respectful towards their variety of beliefs and expecting them to return me the same. so i recommend it to anyone interested. ---------------- btw speaking of politics/voting and religion, i will never understand gun totting nascar christians or gun totting atheists or whathaveyou. it's just a crazy violent american thing i'll never accumulate to my lifestyle.
  14. quote 2nd amendment here and i bet everyone will interpret it differently. half of americans believe it is outdated, immoral, and barbaric. but that doesn't make gun supporters nor americans as a whole guilty as those crazy shooters who think obama is taking away their gun rights and start out shooting rampage..like some americans have already done. let's not even bring up american citizens' extremist hands in atrocities throughout america's whole existence and world by electing warmongering leaders in the pretentious name of freedom. no sane person should buy that imo. so back to topic, christianity has tons of different denominations in america alone because bible is long and complicated. if some say God is all loving, i'd say bull. it says clearly "how" God's love is demonstrated. but millions of ppl will probably say it differently. just look at christians' comments here. most of them will definitely disagree with my christian belief like they did with me 7 or so years ago. they'll probably disagree among themselves too. do i still think they are wrong? yeah. very much so. do they still think i'm wrong? yeah. do you think we are all wrong? yeah. of course. most religions as i listed in the previous post teach about hell or some sort of consequences and punishment (that's why i listed it to point that out without being direct) but christianity gets the most heat because it's popular and it's easy pick since everyone heard of it, especially from media nowdays getting bambard as if all christians are from westboro chruch. i don't think soldiers die because of gay ppl. they are dying because americans want cheap oil. but 2nd popular religion quran also says i will be damned forever for being a christian. am i bothered? offended? no, i don't believe in their religion. they dress up in hijabs and whatnot to remind everyone that. but if i'm that offended by their words and their daily attires, i won't keep brining it up how crazy they are. it's their culture. it's their belief. what americans are going to do? it'll just make me look insecure that i actually believe i'm going to hell or they are all terrorists. (i don't want argument who's right or not. my post was not meant to convince anyone. just my pov on why christianity is hated and misunderstood, and mostly saying let's not generalize everyone because we all know no one likes that)
  15. ^ have faith..more for your sexy zoroastrian women who can't wait to be your bride
  16. lots of good points made just want to add my thoughts. i think ppl in western countries rebel against their parents' religion more than ppl in eastern countries due to cultural difference..> pushing of importance of individualism in the west (dubird's point) vs respecting tradition/parents wishes in the east (gg's point), not always the case but in the end it's parents' upbringing, culture, and influence have lot to do with person's current belief system. i faced both of worlds growing up as roman catholic(because of my grandma) and when my mother(was agnostic) became protestant, she tried to force it on me at one point but she let me be and then I converted to protestantism on my own years later. interesting that as of now fastest growing religion is islam. 20,000 americans become muslim every year despite media, religious, family, and cultural opposition. agree that if you push hard, it'll backfire. A list of numbers of people claiming their religion. Christianity: 2.1 billion Islam: 1.5 billion Secular/Nonreligious/Agnostic/Atheist: 1.1 billion Hinduism: 900 million Chinese traditional religion: 394 million Buddhism: 376 million primal-indigenous: 300 million African Traditional & Diasporic: 100 million Sikhism: 23 million Juche: 19 million Spiritism: 15 million Judaism: 14 million Baha'i: 7 million Jainism: 4.2 million Shinto: 4 million Cao Dai: 4 million Zoroastrianism: 2.6 million Tenrikyo: 2 million Neo-Paganism: 1 million Unitarian-Universalism: 800 thousand Rastafarianism: 600 thousand Scientology: 500 thousand
  17. His church's been anti Islam for some time now. And he announced it in July to burn Quran. And building of mosques goes way back early this year. I even posted about it in June. Two propaganda news like Fox and Msnbc are riling ppl up only now when no one cared about before, because November is coming up wink wink. Nothing like this in past 8 years of 9/11s. Just my thought. I do feel sorry for moderate Muslims though..they must be going through crap with all the racial attacks and insults for trying to build Islamic center near GZ as if post 9/11 wasn't any better for them. They are just another minority scapegoat that Americans love to create if another group's stereotype image wears off. But on the other hand, every day there is another suicide bombs goes off. Yesterday 17 died in Pakistan while they have to deal with flood, day before that in Baghdad, and today in Russian market where 20 died. So can't blame if people are getting angry at them. It's hard not to generalize..for me too..when everything is centered around them again.
  18. kudos to knocking him out for what he did. But damn him for stomping his head while he was unconscious. Lucky he didnt die.
  19. 2 days?? damn i'd go crazy if it took that long. i don't use hair dryer so it takes a couple hours at most for mine to dry..but i do wear a ponytail when it's still wet since a towel (i try to squeeze the living daylights out of it to get all the water out from my hair) can do only so much..but if i don't it'll go puff up.
  20. dubird/cabbit - ah..i have at least 2 differnt 2 in 1s (same brand ) because i thought they would help..what a waste. thanx but i do have a dove conditioner that i bought months ago and forgot about. ;. i'll give that a try as well. and nah, i don't go to sleep with my hair wet, but i always put a hand towel over my pillow..can't help it though because i don't want my pillow to get dirt and oil and stuff.
