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. We all who share this planet are equally important, and nothing has the right to destroy the others environment, especi...

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. Like the action taken a...

the gratitude thread

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.
