Yep. Partially right: God was man "created". Man is result of a more than a million year old and still working evolution. dudeist skydiver # 3105

Big problem. Don't like margaritas or such, never have been to Mexico. Will keep that in mind for next overseas visit. OTOH, the Californian wine is wonderful. Bringing along a bottle perhaps will entertain me a bit more while waiting 6 or more hours before they let me in, these control freaks at NY airport. dudeist skydiver # 3105

I don't see that anyone has to adapt, if everyone simply allows everyone else to just live and let live. You know, there are several rituals which are not really ours here in the Western world? Which, perhaps, you too would not accept with an easy heart? And rituals are important components of cultures which are brought along in the new surrounding. Let's take that *bloodless* one of Bulgarian gypsies, gathering every night around thier bonfire (in the park next to your appartment block) enjoying thier lifes while talking, BBQing, kids playing... all night long. We had such cases several times. Would you really say "live and let live .."? There are *bloody* rituals, which no one would accept in our wold. Chopping off hands (thieves) ... and the list goes on. Where to draw the line? I spent my early years in Canada. My twenties in the Far East. In South-Korea, I alienated locals as I was unable to try a mouthful from my still partially moving food on the dinner plate Who is affronting whom now? Live and let live is only a song title. It only seems to work with a lot of efforts. dudeist skydiver # 3105

Satchmo was on an Eastblock tour in '65. I hardly can imagine someone from the eastern side "went over the wall temporarily to hear him play ..." ? dudeist skydiver # 3105

Who should adapt to whose *rituals* or *symbols*? The one wanting to come in (whatever reasons one has) or the one that opens its doors? You as a US citizen perhaps should ask your immigration offices. (I'm not talking about followers of already "suburbanized" immigrants.) dudeist skydiver # 3105

What? The Shah himself (during the alliance with Germany) asked to designate PERSIA into IRAN. (Persia was limey) Jeez, that's history (part of). Do your homeworks The Shah's father was the one who under pressure from Germany changed the name of the country. In fact some of the last remaining "Nazi" architecture can be found in Tehran. The Germans had a real good grip on the middle east and North Africa. Believe what you want. Facts are not with you. Reza Chan, under British influence, initiated the name changing from Persia into Iran. This one is none of my gigantic knowledge, just Google. You should try it. What you call "Nazi" architecture could be found everywhere on earth, as it's based on very old cultures. What kind of argument should that be? dudeist skydiver # 3105

If it's not religion, it's colour of skin, fondness for *weird* music, sports (all skydivers have dead wishes), preferences in love life. You name it. And if you just wanted to tell me you do not believe in global warming, I feel obliged to start another thread It's warm in Germany, too warm..... Causes headache and sleepless nights, that sh*t dudeist skydiver # 3105

Were all muslims so in her viwe were are all out to get her. I'm not a muslim. So, pls don't talk for me. Where's Falxori?? dudeist skydiver # 3105

Is this the one that was under construction/in planning stages and was not approved? No need to translate everything. If you can provide the link/info in German I can translate it. It's the one that has been mounted - so no worries. http://www.blick.ch/news/schweiz/aargau/umstrittenes-minarett-in-wangen-feierlich-eingeweiht--122390 dudeist skydiver # 3105

You've seen the result. Switzerland always decided for themselves since centuries. They are free, simple as that. Deal with. Again: Hats off. dudeist skydiver # 3105

35 soon??? Oh my, I was sure you're somewhat around 25 Man, get out of your mess. Start with yourself, the rest will follow dudeist skydiver # 3105

Well done. Your decision, your life. You safed your a**, that's all what's counting. Congrats. Go on like that and never lose altitude awareness.

Physical Death - Separation of the Soul/Spirit from the body. Spiritual Death - Separation of the Soul/Spirit from God. Spiritual Life - Restoration and unity with God. ... Restoration? Sorry, dude. You do not sound that funny and agile ... I live today, right now - and love it. Nothing can change that. Except death. Then, I'll just be fodder for the worms. But, until then ... cya. Looking forward packing for my trip to South Africa, what could be better???? That's (my) life - and you're not my dialogue partner. Thanks God. Christel dudeist skydiver # 3105

Yep. Happens every day. If it's a celebrity or not. Isn't worth a second thought. Hi Chuck, hope you're doin' fine??

This is the sound of the spiritually dying. You dont see that we're already dead, and that only in death can we find life. Only in death?? Am I already dead while enjoying the early sun light and the cold breath of a beautiful December morning? I feel alive - can't tell you, how much! - , that's a fact for me. Sorry, cannot follow you. dudeist skydiver # 3105

No, don't think so, I had the feeling to understand what you meant to say.

Yep. The best on earth. Beyond price.

Yes, another European victory for racial purity. Don't be jealous, your contry is on the right path, too. edited to add: Very friendly to say "European" .... dudeist skydiver # 3105

Not that quick, Chris. Especially the US *does* select whom they let in. It's not that easy these days. What I fully understand. (We should do the same, much more) Be happy with what your fellow countrymen voted for, well done.

Ha, even that sometimes needs some qualification. And when both are missing....... dudeist skydiver # 3105

How passé. Like Kristallnacht, that, too, has been done. Sequestration and Reichskristallnacht are not the same. dudeist skydiver # 3105

C'mon, Mike. I really do not like beeing forced to have any doubts about your sanity. How many LINEAR trends do you really need? (And not alone in this actual thread, there were others before ) dudeist skydiver # 3105

It shows an overall cooling trend since 1998 - why do you think it doesn't? A cooling trend? Where? http://www.theglobalwarmingoverview.com/index.php/Global-Warming-Statistics.html dudeist skydiver # 3105
