I'm rather indifferent, but I am oddly pumped about The Anchorman.

Need some prank Ideas
Put pads all over, like stick them down. If you're feeling waaaaay cruel you can put ketchup all over them. This works especially well on cars.

How was your weekend?
Nice low-key but nice. The highlight was that one of my friends had a Garden Party and got to see lots of friends I don't usually. Live music as well--my fave campus bands. Then we went up to the campus music festival and I got to see Indigenous. Then I got to walk in the rain yesterday and it was just really refreshing and nice....

Shock in the paper tonight
That's really sad and horrible CW. It's amazing the horrible things people can do. I hope S is okay and working to break the cycle of violence. Man, every time I hear stories like this, ugh breaks my heart all over again...

Friends? Your thoughts?
I don't like Friends, I think they're all self-centered and irritating. During that time I will be sitting in Class and I have no qualms or sadness about that.

Morality or Ethics class in Elem & HS
I definitely agree on that point. You win a lot more people over without being condescending, rude, and mean-spiritied... I can't even read some replies on here because they are just so mean-spirited and completely lacking respect for diverse opinions. That's not a debate--which implies dialogue--some of this is just preaching or overall meanness...

CW reminded me of a book I read for class eons and eons ago, The Way We Never Were

CD Recommendation Thread
I just got the Damien Rice cd from a friend yesterday--and I haven't been able to pry it from my cd player. It's so chill and just gorgeous ear pleasing music!

Cubs lose
I'm sorry Be Good, I just have to be the Grammar Mean Person: A Yankees LOSS feels better than a Cubs LOSS. Loss = noun Lose = verb

Morality or Ethics class in Elem & HS
I certainly never said that. I hated Biomed ethics and the best ethics class I ever took was the Ethics of Jesus (PS I go to a PRIVATE school, and it was optional). I am also not sure how your post pertains to me and my comment at all. I simply advocated secular based ethics classes.
-
Morality or Ethics class in Elem & HS
Yes, but only because I believe ethics is independent of God and can we taught in a secular manner. Of course, from my ethics classes I think this might be a bit much for a little kid--so I would say hold off until high school when they have more critical thinking skills.

America's Culture War
Yes, actually I would do a study. If I were getting funding from a NON-BIASED source you bet I would jump on this. I've done lots of research and am planning on doing it for a career. If I could get proper funding yes I would do it.
-
America's Culture War
Of COURSE those studies wouldn't be biased or funded by Christian associations... Kids are in school 6 hours a day. Why can't they pray during the other 18?
-
America's Culture War
I'm afraid the majority of my Christian friends would not support established religion in the classroom. So know you're saying all types of Christianity but yours are invalid?
-
America's Culture War
I for one could never be comfortable with prayer in school because I would know some of my friends and classmates would be uncomfortable.
-
America's Culture War
There are many good, God-fearing Christians who do NOT want the Bible and God in school as they feel it would violate the first amendment on the establishment of religion. And who would decide which brand of Christianity gets taught? The liberal brand, the conservative, the evengelicals, the Catholics? There is no ONE Christianity, and don't assume those views are that of EVERY Christian.
