Christian Fundamentalism
<t>Something I forgot to mention in the post above.<br/> <br/> If Jesus was around today, we would treat him as a trouble maker and possible lock him up for inciting a crowd. He was certainly anti-establish, imagine the field day the media would have. I wonder if Christianity would survive if was de...

Blood Diamond
<t>I too don't hold human life above animal life, but at the same time feel that eliminating animal life and the micro-environments that they create makes the human life worthless.

Zimbabwe votes
<t>I spent sometime in Zim in the mid 70s and what a place it was. Even with sanctions it still had a better economy than most other countries in Africa, if not the rest of the world. <br/> <br/> Back then if my memory serves me right was it not the British government that opened the doors that allo...

Blood Diamond
<t>I too saw the movie and thought it too was great, especially Leonardo,s South African accent. <br/> <br/> Making a comparison between human life and diamonds is one consideration, but if you really want to do something, stop the diamond buying and the problem will go away.

I am thankfully each day I wake up breathing, as I then know it is going to be another good day. The only bad day I will have is the one I wake not breathing.
I love my life.
Enjoy the rest of the day.
