To Butch: do you read as well as you spell and type? |
Well put Butch. Thanks. I think the world is moving in this direction but it is really going to take some time. |
TAX RELIGION! Make them follow the laws of society if they want us to follow the laws of their fairy-tale deity. |
I find it ironic that those who support the gay life style will condemn the bible, now all of a sudden someone gives his opinion that the bible is misinterrepted. and how ironic that now, of all time this guy writes this article. Why didn't he tell us this correct interruptation last week, or last year or 5 years ago, ... |
Wow. Just because this is the first time you have heard of this, does not mean it is the first time it has been interpreted this way. I was raised traditional catholic, and upon trying to learn more about my religion found out about the stuff in this article 5-10 years ago. This information has existed long before that... |
How do you explain 1 Corinthians 6:9 then? |
drunk with power men trying to control everything around them via fear. |
This guy doesn't know His Bible or the true God, he is his own god. And writes his own rules. THere are words for that at the end of the Bilble, those that add to this book or take aware from it have not place in the book of life. |
You mean . . . free will? Wasn't that given to us by said god? |
Ken: "Billions care [about what the bible says] you freak now go back under your rock fool" |
The only reason billions "care" about the Judaism, Christianity and Islam are because there has been so much violence done in the names of these pathetic religions. Lots of money and power behind all that crap! |
People don't kill because of religions, they kill because of oil,gold,money and power. |
I don't have to read books. CNN finds people to tell me what they say so I can remain an illiterate dolt. |
want to know what it says? Read it. If it matters to you at all you'd want to learn first hand. |
but the author admits he is gay on his website. how could we expect anything other than a gay biased article. |
So, do you accuse pastors of being biased towards the bible and therefore they're not an authority? |
I only hate the gay lifestyle because God hates it! |
And since God exists only in your head the real bigotry is exposed. |
How do you know God hates it? God didn't write the Bible. |
Atheist are the unbelievers mentioned in the bible. There are many places where it says what will happen to those unbelievers, i'm just glad i'm not one of them. |
Ah...but only you fools are dumb enough to believe what you read in that wretched book of lies. Happily your threats of hell only affect you poor fools. |
^Whatever helps you sleep at night, kid. |
That was intended for "YouRWrong" |
Some of the most shoddy linguistic work ever. Nothing like adopting lexical gymnastics to make yourself sound scholarly. |
No kidding...people can make the Bible say whatever they want it to say. I'm very religious, but I still take anyone's interpretation of Biblical text with a grain of salt. |
This is clearly written by a gay man trying to twist the bible to justify his chosen lifestyle so he and his partners feel better about themselves. |
As opposed to twisting the bible to justify your personal beliefs. Rigggghhhhhhtttt. |
You clearly are a religious nut looking to impose your will on others, wanted or not. Here's a hint: it's not wanted. Re-evaluate yourself. |
Leviticus 18:22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination. |
Want the new testament version? |
1 Corinthians 6:9-11 gentiles were exempted from old law under Acts, however some things remained sins even for gentiles. |
So . . . what you're saying is god was wrong the first time around? No, wait, if it's in the bible, then god said god was wrong the first time around. Got it. |
Or shave Drew, not to mention about 20 other things that Leviticus prohibits. |
That was actually my point, what is the truth. |
Tingle, uh huh. Try reading the KJV instead of something like NIV for verses 9 and 10. Did you somehow miss 11? |
There are a billion fools out there. |
The Kennebunk and Lewiston middle school ice hockey teams faced off on Sunday for the Braun Division championship at UNE's Alfond Forum. And it was Lewiston that emerged from a hard fought game to win the division with a narrow 4-3 victory. |
Top-seeded Kennebunk had entered the game with an 18-0 mark after a 16-0 regular season and playoff wins against Westbrook (10-2) and Cape Elizabeth (3-0). |
Second-seeded Lewiston topped the Poland/Gray-New Gloucester team in the quarterfinals and defeated Scarborough in the semifinals to set up the championship tilt against Kennebunk. |
Kennebunk had beaten Lewiston twice during the regular season — by a 6-5 margin back in early December and then by a 3-1 score just before the playoffs started. |
The Kennebunk team also had exciting one-goal victories over Cape Elizabeth, Brunswick, Poland/Gray-New Gloucester and South Portland during the regular season. |
During the regular season, Kennebunk outscored its opponents 83-35. |
Kennebunk's roster included Brenden Whitten, Derek Muse, Brendan Keefe, Kyle Mooney, Christian Putnam, Kyle Beaupre, Miles Eaton, Chelsea Lachance, Nathaniel Jewett, Zachary Brown, Molly Davis, Luca Colinet, Sawyer Lachance, Jalen Jellison, Keenan Gamache, Walker Robinson and Griffin Ouellette. |

SANTA ANA — Rhoda Harris, who sat next to a student who later protested the Israeli ambassador's speech, testified Monday that she was upset by the protestors' repeated disruptions. |
Harris, a resident of a Laguna Woods retirement community, said the disruptions in February 2010 made it hard to fully understand Ambassador Michael Oren's speech at UC Irvine. |
"I couldn't hear, there was shouting, and I was emotionally distracted," she said. "When you're focused on the disruption, you're not focused on the speaker." |
When asked if she felt threatened by the students' behavior, she said, "Not at first, but when they removed the ambassador, that frightened me." |
The ambassador left the stage after the fourth disruption, but returned to complete his speech. |
A defense attorney asked UCI Police Sgt. Mark Arnold whether the college had made plans prior to the speech to arrest students who caused the disruption. |
He said the university does not have a policy to arrest students, but also said handcuffs were already in the room where the students were detained. |
The students cooperated with police officers and were taken without incident, he said. |
Prosecutors read emails sent among the students through a Google group, making the case that the students planned the protest. In the emails, the students discussed ways to protest the ambassador's presence on campus, including reading statements to disrupt him every few minutes, sending a press release and writing an ... |
The 10 students from UCI and UC Riverside are charged with two misdemeanor counts for conspiracy to disrupt a public speech then disrupting the speech. Charges against an 11th student will be dropped if he completes community service. |
Defense attorneys say the student protestors were exercising their rights to free speech. The Orange County district attorney's office, however, argues that the protestors planned the disruption and interfered with Oren's right to free speech and the audience's right to hear him. |
The students face up to six months in jail if convicted. |

S. WAGNER ATTACKS JAZZ.; Composer's Son Has the Idea It Is Turned Out by Negroes. |
With the impending release of Blackberry 10, RIM is at the cliffhanger of an epic story. |
Remember when RIM was the hero that brought us push email and instant messaging, and the term “crackberry” was coined? They triumphed for years as the number one mobile device, in spite of patent wars and scandals. |
…Apple dealt them a quick one-two punch with the iPod, quickly followed by the iPhone. Then RIM made a potentially fatal error: They responded with sub-par touchscreen devices that only strengthened the demand for iPhones. |
Now we wait impatiently for RIM’s long overdue challenge to the iPhone: Blackberry 10. Will it be awesome enough to redeem RIM and save thousands of jobs at the company? |
Things look promising. RIM is inching closer to releasing the first BB10 device, which gives them the potential to rise back up to a solid top three spot. Sneak peeks of BB10 developer devices look great. |
Personally, I can’t wait to get a BB10. And I’m not alone. We always see a lot of demand for iOS and Android mobile developers from our clients at Stafflink.ca. We’re very excited to start placing QNX developers for BB10 apps. |
But even if Blackberry 10 is the mobile operating system we’ve all been waiting for, RIM still has three more dragons to slay before they begin to rise back up as a mobile superpower. |
The challenge isn’t for BB10 devices to be cooler than Apple phones. The market can support many “cool” smartphones. But BB10 does need to carve out its own niche of cool. |
RIM needs to overcome the stigma of selling Blackberryss with disappointing touchscreens and inferior Web browsers to users who are either forced to use them by employers, or locked into three year plans–not cool. Meanwhile, their friends are showing off new iPhones with impeccable touch screens, fast browsing and grea... |
But from what we’ve seen, BB10 might bring the coolness factor back. Check out this video to get a little taste of what RIM has in store for us. |
Blackberry 10 is a do-or-die moment for RIM. The new operating system offers a brand-new workflow with innovative ways to interact with the touchscreen. But if people are confused by the new operating system, it could mean death for BB10 and, thus, the demise of RIM. |
Releasing a revolutionary OS is a gigantic risk, because when people look at the new device for the first time, it will be completely unfamiliar. But what other choice does RIM have? They are fighting for survival, and they can’t compete by creating an iPhone clone. |
BB10 has to be extremely intuitive, or at least come with a great tutorial. It needs to wow the people selling the devices. If sales staff and users are frustrated and confused by BB10, they will bail. Worse, they will tell their friends that they hate the OS. |
Flow. Hub. Peek. These are some of the labels RIM uses to describe the revolutionary features that may make the BB10 touchscreen superior to Apple’s iOS, or the Samsung Galaxy versions of Android. |
Allows you to easily navigate your touchscreen with simple swipes to access multiple active applications, live Web pages, and notifications. You can flow between multiple tasks like e-mailing, social media sharing, messaging and phone calls without having to open and close programs. |
Allows you to access your email, messagse, calendar events and social media notifications, all on one handy screen. |
Allows you to swipe your current active screen to the side so you can have a quick peek at incoming notifications in your Blackberry Hub. Awesome! |
This may be the toughest dragon of all. I think a smart move would be to give BB10 phones to managers and assistant managers at retail stores. Picture this: a launch party where only retail salespeople are invited. Dazzle them and train them on all the cool new features. When people walk into the store they can then be... |
Yes, it’s possible that RIM can win this battle. On Nov. 1, RIM shares climbed nearly 10 per cent after CEO Thorsten Heins stated that more than 50 carriers are now “excitedly” testing BlackBerry 10 on their networks. |
Is too late for BB10 to save RIM? |
Even if they do slay all of these dragons, let’s face it: RIM should’ve released this product a year ago. How many people are going to go into a retail store when their contract is up and ask to see the new BB? |
I will, along with several of my staff at Stafflink.ca, who are currently using the iPhone 4. |
RIM has already convinced many bloggers and developers that the BB10 is the next great thing in mobile. Now they need to fight to keep their existing customers and win back their former customers. |
According to a report covered by Knowlton Thomas in Techvibes, 18 per cent of mobile users in Canada plan to make their next smartphone a BlackBerry and more Canadians plan to buy a Blackberry than an Android. |
What do you think? Does RIM have a chance to win this battle? |

Not since the days of slavery have there been so many people who feel entitled to what other people have produced as there are in the modern welfare state, whether in Western Europe or on this side of the Atlantic. |
Economist Edward Lazear has cut through all of Barack Obama's claims about "creating jobs" with one plain and inescapable fact -- "there hasn't been one day during the entire Obama presidency when as many Americans were working as on the day President Bush left office." Whatever number of jobs were created during the O... |
