Prayers are a waste of time – Proven truth!
Urafkntool, be advised that a few of the Prof. at Capella are Non White, be careful you might learn something,I hope those Black, Indian, and other Prof. open your eyes, (I hope).
oh I'm quite aware of that. Anyone can teach out of a book. Frankly, I wouldn't mind having an Indian professor (I'm an online student, so as far as I know they live in India anyway) because Indians tend to be incredible with computers anyway. My wife goes to Capella, working on her degree in accounting, so I know what I'm getting in to. I do what I have to to survive and get ahead in life, because if I can get ahead, I can help my race to do the same again.
You're not "aware" of anything.
The family outcry reminds me of a case in Baltimore 20 years ago where a crack-head and his buddy carjacked a new mother, killing her and throwing her new-born in her car seat into a road. The crack-head's mother went on the local news, crying "My baby was in school!" The people at the Applied Physics Lab still talk of the researcher (a woman with a PhD), and what she could have accomplished and the great mother she would have been, if her life hadn't been taken for nothing.
AGuest9-
That pushes quite a few emotional buttons, but for what purpose? No one has suggested that anyone involved was a crack-head or that the case resembles the one you related in any way.
Prayer really changes things
Proven
Trayvon is still dead, right? So, no, it doesn't.
~Lying is a sin, you've been proven a liar over and over again on this blog. A great example of prayer proven not to work is the Christians in jail because prayer didn't work. For example: Susan Grady, who relied on prayer to heal her son. Nine-year-old Aaron Grady died and Susan Grady was arrested Friday morning...
An article in the Journal of Pediatrics examined the deaths of 172 children from families who relied upon faith healing from 1975 to 1995. They concluded that four out of five ill children, who died under the care of faith healers or being left to prayer only, would most likely have survived if they had received medical care.
Plus don't forget. The statistical studies from the nineteenth century and the three CCU studies on prayer are quite consistent with the fact that humanity is wasting a huge amount of time on a procedure that simply doesn’t work. Nonetheless, faith in prayer is so pervasive and deeply rooted, you can be sure believers will continue to devise future studies in a desperate effort to confirm their beliefs.!*

You really have on concept of what prayer is about.
Payers change things. Prayers do not.

I have no dog in this fight. I'm white as the driven snow and have no reason to excuse criminal behavior on anyone's part, regardless of race. It may well prove to be that Zimmerman is telling the truth, that Martin hit him and that he was defending himself. If so, fine. What I object to is the blatant racism of idiots like Tool, who presume that Martin is guilty simply because he's black. It is equally disgusting to assume that he is not guilty because he's black.
This is, thankfully, a nation of laws. While not perfect, it's certainly a better bet that justice will be served by the courts than by moronic racists like Urkel.
My dog is black and I'm his sh!t. Ergo, I'm a black sh!t.
I deserve to be trolled with quality.
nope.
You don't have a job, do you?

Just for sh!ts and giggles, Toolie, how old are you? Considering you couldn't spell "imbecilic" and don't own a computer that has a spell-check worth a sh!t, I'm guessing you're about 17.
Of course, that would by your chronological age; as for your intellectual age? Hmmm. I'd guess you're around 10.
Actually, IF it's any of your business, I'm 34. I'm also a deans list pupil at Ashford University. I'm currently fixing to transfer for a bachelor's program in Information Assurance and Security. The lack of a spell check is due to this being a work computer, not my gaming machine at home or my wife's laptop or desktop. Hell, not even my Android. One misspelled word does not equal anything other than you showing yet again your lack of intellectual capabilities or ability to make a valid point.
oh, and in case you're wondering.. no, I'm not the one mimicing you and posting stupid crap. That sort of thing is far, far beneath me.
It's "mimicking", dear. The fact that you need spell-check is telling.
So is the fact that you're 34 and still don't have a college degree.
I've copied your most egregious posts to CNN. I wonder how the august citadel of higher education, Ashford University, would look upon your posts if CNN decided to pursue action.
I've never met anyone who's 34, educated and bright, who still says he's "fixing" to do anything.
Guess that must a redneck thing.
Do tell, oh brilliant scholar who is 34 and still has no degree, where will you pursue this degree in, what is it? Oh, yeah, Information Assurance and Security?
Harvard?
Right.
As if.
Uh-uh. No response. Why do I suspect that Toolie has been told to get off the damn computer by his mommy, again, because he has school tomorrow?
What a little sack of pus.
Some of us sleep. Anyway, again, not that it's any of YOUR business, but I'm transferring to Capella University in the fall for my bachelors because Ashford doesn't offer what I want. I'll be transferring a 3.9 GPA. So what if I'm 34 and just fixing to start my junior year in college? It often takes people a while to figure out what they want to do for a career.
You're a loser who couldn't get into a real university, you feeb.
Get over yourself , you loser. You don't have a clue as to what academia entails. You are barely able to string together a coherent sentence without including "fixing", you little dolt.
I'm eatin my cats sh!ts. YUUMMYYY!!!
I am not surprised. The insane often suffer from pica.
According to the news, the kid attacked the mexican dude first. So, I don't see what the problem is. But, I twearn't there so I can't say what happened for sure. I heard justin bieber's on the bandwagon now. What a retard. Hope he upsets a neighborhood watch guy someday. That would ROCK SOLO! HARD IN THE BUTT!!
This country is full of retards that will jump on any bandwagon without knowing the facts first. No wonder the economy is sh!t. It's run by retards. Down syndrome cri.ppled retards. With your oversized heads and thick necks and everything and.........wait, excuse me I need to change my diaper but will be back soon, promise!
You can pretend all you wish, little troll, but no one will mistake your posts for mine.
It's funny to watch you attempt to impersonate a sentient creature, though.
I meant, *incontinent creature, though.
My bad, age and obesity reach its toll.
My cats get more action than I do. I can't get any.

ONLY FOR THE NEWCOMERS
Where is the rage brought about because of the 2000 years of Christian racist mumbo jumbo (from hatred of the followers of Judaism to those of opposite skin colors) that put us in this scenario to begin with??
For a good review of anti-sem-itism and Christianity, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christianity_and_anti-se-mitism.
(note: Wikipedia's articles typically are very well researched and written. Check the references given in each article to ver-ify the ve-ra-city of the information.
Added checking can be done by reviewing the same topic posted on on-line encyclopedias, with many of these being free to all those with library cards. Go to your local library's website and look for reference sites like the Power Library.
And there is always Google, B-ing and Ya-hoo search engines to get up to date information on current events which are also reviewed in many Wikipedia articles. )
For Christian issues with a person's skin color, let us start with those Christians who call themselves Mormons,
"According to Mormon history and authoritative Mormon teachers, the Ne-gro, as they were referred to, are a cur-sed race because they were not faithful to God in their first estate (the pre-existent life with God). Hence, when they are born they are born in black ski-nned families.
The early Mormon church was highly prej-udicial against black people. And though there has been a change in att-itude to blacks as of June 9, 1978 when they were finally allowed into the Mormon priesthood, it cannot be denied that Mormonism was, up until very recently, a seg-regated church."
And you still have all-white Christian churches and all-black Christian churches throughout the USA where sk-in color and seg-regation are still part of the operating procedures.

I think there should be more cats here.
it still wants to be me
Thank you CNN for finally gathering all the opinion pieces under the heading "Blogs."
