I agree that childhood obesity is a problem--and I think that kids should be talked to about their condition, but only in a sensible manner. Deliberately being harsh won't solve the problem, I don't think, especially at such a tender age. And after reading this, I think about the article I...

Ouch. That's kinda harsh. :) To each his (or her) own, of course...but there's far more to Bono than his outside. I think the generosity he's shown to his fans, the charity work he continues to do, and the time he spends going out of his way to make other people happy prove his heart. But...

I think you go right away. I believe Heaven and Hell are actual places--Heaven being with God for all eternity, and Hell being the absence of God for the same period of time. The qualifications to get into Heaven--accepting Christ as your Lord and Savior. Accepting that nothing you can do...

So you're saying the actions of former Nazis such as Eichmann are less terrible than the threat of the spread of Communism? I guess you'd agree with our government using the rocket technology from former Nazis like Werner von Braun...and using Reinhard Gehlen and his pals to set up the CIA?

Actually, Ted Rall is a pretty good cartoonist and writer. You should check out more of his stuff before making a snap judgment. Yahoo has published a lot of his opinion articles. I think some of you would agree with what he has to say. As for Ann Coulter, I almost feel sorry for her...

:ohmy: Thank you very, very much for this...:wink: (I've always wanted to know who that girl was and what went through her mind during those precious seconds...and how she managed any sort of self-control!)

This thread is awesome. Thanks for all the info. :drool: Oops! There's some more drool for ya. :wink: So Bono has Scottish roots! Who knew?

Really? :wink: Hmmm. It is getting kinda teenybopper-ish around here. :huh:

You're welcome. I hope you have a good time and a safe trip.

Of course, you're entitled to your own opinion... As Bono is a little familiar with Scripture, I'm sure he's heard of this particular section: "'Take care! Don't do your good deeds publicly, to be admired, because then you will lose the reward from your Father in heaven. When you give a gift...

It depends on how much time you have to devote to sightseeing. In St. Louis, I'd recommend the Gateway Arch, which has a nice historical museum explaining the Lewis and Clark expedition--and you can ride to the top of the Arch (something like 635 feet tall). Also, if you have the time, the St...

:up: So nice for people to recognize that you can be both liberal and Christian.

What?!?! NO!!!! :sad: Oh Sicy, you ruined everything! :wink:

Here's how I remember it. Bush got 55 million votes; Kerry, 51 million. That's a difference of only 4 million votes. How is that a "sound" defeat? Or am I forgetting something? :eyebrow:

:wave: I'm Courtney. Nice meeting you. :)
