The key here is unregistered. In a place with a strict totalitarian government like that, you cant do anything without being having the government know about it and be involved in it. It's a large part of communism as well. It's not because they are Christian that they are getting imprisoned...

Thats 100% wrong. I'm sorry but it's a totally ignorant statement. That may have been true during the 50's and the Maoist cultural revolution but it is absolutely not true now.

I'm actually surprised to see so many here opposing women ministers... So far I thought most of the users of this board were younger and more progressive Christians, but apparently many of you are still clinging to your sexist traditions. I feel bad for the others who aren't, since you are...

Actually I agree, I think the idea behind affirmative action was to help the process in a temporary way. California was the first state to implement quota's for ethnicities in colleges and the workplace, and it was also the first to get rid of them. Affirmative action IS racism and should NOT be...

Colin Powell is a rarity, an exception. 1 black person in a position of power is contrasted by 100 white men with similar positions. If everything were equal it should resemble the ACTUAL percentages of people in the country. Meaning if 25% of the population are black, close to 25% of our...

You hardly know me and are a bad judge of what I would or would not do, you asked me and I told you, you dont have to accept it. What about minorities? I mentioned them in my post as well.

Yep. Do the amount of women and minorities reflect the actual amount of people? In other words do the % of women and minorities in places of power and wealth come close to the % of the overall population? No. Not even close. The US congress is something like 95% white males, you think 95% of the...

Tom you didn't answer my question, so I'll restate it: So here is my question, if they have had plenty of time to catch up, why haven't they? Do minorities simply have lower aspirations than us and prefer manual labor to being the CEO of a corporation? Or have they had enough time but not used...

What amazes me most Tom is that you will not admit there is inequality. Affirmative action is an attempt to fix a serious problem in this country. Women and minorities do not earn equal salaries and do not hold equal economic status in this country as white males. That is a fact, nobody will...

So since they've had all this time to catch up, and they are still by no means equal statistically, I can conclude from your post that you think women and ethnic minorities are just too lazy to make it happen. Non white people are just lazy slobs, Pat Buchanon was right after all, thanks Tom...

The way I see it, if you prevent a woman from being a minister simply based on her sex you better not criticize the treatment of women in the Islamic world anytime soon. Unless you dont mind being a hypocrite.

The middle of the earth is filled with cotton candy, prove me wrong.

Um, I think the point of that NASA article was that the amount of light we see on the moon IS that 7% which is reflected. The sun is just that bright.

Thats all well and good, but before you said science books and NASA all agreed with you, which is a scientific claim. I challenged you on that scientific claim thinking that you may have some evidence to support you. You then changed your argument to making a claim based on faith, which is...

Ok so it makes light cause "god made it that way". Thanks I guess we are done here. For a second there I thought we were going to have an interesting discussion using actual facts and evidence to support scientific claims.

See I made a post asking you to explain why the moon makes its own light, and you responded with a post about the Hittites. Its not true because you say it is, or because you say everyone else knows it but me. Please give me some evidence or at least some reasoning to support your statement.

Ok then since you seem to know, please explain how a giant rock floating in space creates light of its own.

Um... no it doesn't.

I was calling the fact that you need to fake another account to back yourself up as lame, not your "view".

Interesting coincidence you two both coming at almost the exact same time and backing eachother up. Methinks the are they same person? Pretty lame if you ask me.
