I believe in god but i feel like religon has failed me. I dont have faith in humanity and seeing all the terrible things that are being done in the name of religion disgusts me. I feel like i dont want to be affiliated with anything that can cause so much terror when it is supposed to be preaching the exact opposite.

Two elderly men were talkin about their sex
lives.One told the other,”I had sex with a 30
year old three times last night.”
The friend said,”Wow.You must be usin
the Viagra.”
“No,”the man said.”I know a little secret:
Wheat bread.Eat lots of it and you can have
sex for hours.”
So the second man ran to the nearest super
market and grabbed six loaves of wheat bread.
At the checkout counter the cashier said,
“That’s a lot of bread.It will probably get hard
before you’re done eatin it all.”
“Well,I’ll be damned,”the man said.”Does
everybody know about this but me?”
If you didn’t get it,read it again.LOL

A group of Louisiana citizens, believed to be backed by the conservative Christian Louisiana Family Forum, are attacking the state’s proposed biology textbooks because, well, they teach too much evolution.
The Baton Rouge Advocate reported this week that a state panel is scheduled to review the issue Friday after the state’s school board held off adopting the biology I and biology II textbooks due to the complaints.
Winston White, one of the residents who complained about the books, said, “It’s like Charles Darwin and his theory is a saint. You can’t touch it.”
It’s worth noting that White is the son of Darrell White, who was one of the Louisiana Family Forum founders. This move is all part of an ongoing broader strategy, one that the LFF, which is affiliated with Focus on the Family, has been behind since the beginning.
Darrell White also told the Advocate that the textbooks don’t comply with the anti-evolution law known as the “Louisiana Science Education Act,” which the Family Forum helped write and successfully lobbied for in 2008. The LSEA instructs educators to promote “critical thinking skills, logical analysis, and open and objective discussion of scientific theories being studied including, but not limited to, evolution, the origins of life, global warming, and human cloning.” It also allows teachers and school districts to use “supplemental textbooks,” which are just code words for creationist and pro-intelligent design materials.
Barbara Forrest, a philosophy professor at Southeastern Louisiana University, co-founder of Louisiana Citizens for Science and one of the creationist movement’s most damning critics, said she believes the complaints are merely a tactic to get disclaimers (Warning: These books teach evolution!) added to the textbooks, or pave the way for the inclusion of creationist supplemental materials.
Other people who lodged complaints said they did so because the books didn’t teach intelligent design.
In written comments to state officials, David Mathers, of West Monroe, said he would “like to see intelligent design explained as an alternate theory to the theory of evolution.”
Curt Eberts, of Monroe, made the same point. He faulted a biology textbook he reviewed for lacking material on the concept of intelligent design.

I came up with a very off the wall idea
Introduction of cheetahs into Australia.
I thought of it because the niche that cheetahs fall into isn’t really filled here. We don’t have any large land predators and it seemed at first glance that they might do well here without competition.
I’d like you guys to imagine this hypothetical situation.
think about what kind of consequences it might have.
and
how would they fair in our environment?
would they be able to live and breed in the wild?
what part of Australia would be ideal what part would not be.
what prey would they choose?
how would they impact the other animals here and in what ways.
would they compete with other feral animals?
and which animals would be most affected
how would a wild population of cheetahs affect the people and farmers. would they become a problem or leave them alone do you think?
whatever else you can think of.

I’m fostering an adult cat and today I discovered that she’s got tapeworms. The adoption center I’m affiliated with gave me a tablet of Drontal. After unsuccessfully convincing the cat to eat the pill, I crushed it and mixed it with about 1/4 can of her canned food. She ate a small portion of the food, but unfortunately, she could still taste the pill and refused to eat any more of it. Will the meds still be effective if she consumes the food over the course of the night or should I go and ask for another pill and try again?

If you could open your own web shop what would you like to sell. I am looking for ideas for a new web site but cant decide on the niche or theme to go with. So what is missing on the web, what would you sell if you could.
