She was born in Benoni, South Africa.

Does that technically make her African-American?

If not, why not?

I think I believe in God but I don`t have any positive feelings about Him. I don`t understand how anyone can worship, adore, or praise a deity that stands back and watches its creations destroy each other.

Any "respectful" feelings I might have for God would be classified more as superstition than love or faith.

I`ve always thought of myself as Agnostic or Atheist but I wonder if there`s a more accurate term.

I have 14 Savings Bonds, all $50 denominations.

The total interest earned is $2,313.40.

The total value is $2,838.40.

I have to report the interest as income on my taxes next year.

How do I figure out how much I`ll owe once I cash them in?

(I reside in the state of Minnesota, if that figures into the tax equation.)

I consider myself to be Libertarian in my political beliefs, but I`m having a heck of a time trying to untangle all the political gobbledygook.

Also, is there a site where each candidates` platform is explained in unbiased terms?

i recently read an answer that said, "i will pray for you. good luck", and it made me wonder, aren`t "prayer" and "luck" contrary things when it comes to religious faith?

how important are the 10 commandments to christians?

how many christians actually incorporate these commandments into their daily lives?

NEVER said "god damn it", or "jesus christ!" in a negative way?

NEVER wanted (coveted) something someone else has?

NEVER done anything but rest and worship on Sunday?

NEVER made something else more important to you than your relationship with god (i.e. car, football, money, etc.)?

if homosexuality is such a big deal to god, why is there no commandment against it?

a lot of christians seem to talk a good game, but they sure don`t seem to follow the rules set forth by the one thing they claim to be the most important thing in their lives.

i understand that it`s hard to follow the commandments in this day and age with all the distractions we have...

i guess what i`m trying to say is--"dear self-proclaimed followers of the "one true god", PUT UP OR SHUT UP"!

don`t tell me how i should live my life when you can`t even do it yourselves.

it`s an older work of art--possibly from the 1700`s or 1800`s.

subject is what looks like several hundred bears, some dancing in a large circle, or several circles. looks to be a peaceful "get-together".

it`s been many years since i first saw the piece, but the image has stayed with me, and i`d like to find out the artist`s name or possibly the title of the painting. many thanks for any help!

as we`ve recently been told, the bible was "written" long after christ died, and the gospels used in the bible were handpicked by men who weren`t even alive during christ`s lifetime. there were several gospels excluded because they didn`t quite fit the bill; i.e."you`ll believe what we tell you to believe".

by the way, please don`t reference "The Da Vinci Code"--it`s a work of FICTION.

who sings it & which CD would i find it on--please and thank you!

my house needs some repair work--nothing drastic, but more than i can take on myself. is it best to hire someone to do the work or try to sell "as is"? i`m located in minneapolis, minnesota....

"sl*ut" and "ho`", really great words--thanks for using them soooo much! what are the male equivilants? anyone? no, "rake" and "cad" don`t count--no one uses them. "dawg" has positive connotations, so you can`t have that. any suggestions? and one more thing--why are hate and meaness the end result of many of these "couplings"? granted, there is also a lot of love and happiness going on; but what`s with all the hateful things that get said and done in many other cases? aren`t we supposed to be each other`s shelter? that "soft place to land" when the rest of the world treats us unkindly? sex is about love and trust (no, REALLY!). when and HOW did it get to be about power and shame?
