As some of you may know, I grew up outside of Philly and I'm an Eagles fan. And as some of you might know, Michael Vick recently signed a contract with the Eagles. For those of you who don't know, Vick was convicted of financially supporting and occasionally taking part in a dog fighting ring, in which pitbulls were forced to fight to the death.  Dogs that survived were often finished off...

This is something ive been thinking about for the past week. You know women want to date guys like their fathers and men want women to be like their mothers? Well, my ex once said I never had a problem with that, that I in fact didnt have that "mommy complex". Turns out she was wrong. I want and need a love that doesnt need to be reinforced. That "I love yous" dont...

Americans DEVASTATED. WASHINGTON – Americans are doing their homework on healthcare reform. And, unlike some members of Congress, they're reading the legislation, even though it's more than 1,000 pages long. They see that the numbers don't add up. They note the contradictory claims by the Obama administration and Democrat-controlled Congress. And they recognize the unintended consequences of...

Lately I've been feeling a little off, I guess. By lately, I mean for a while. I'm not sure why I've been feeling like this, but I'd like it to stop. I think it has something to do with a mixture of education, seeing the world, and being bored with my current life. It just seems that no matter what I do, I am always just blah. I am happy to be alive, but I find it hard to appreciate the little...

  In a book I am currently reading, the authors postulate that we can affect the past from the present, that is, our notion of time is not quite set in stone, so we can, for example, send healing thoughts to a critical moment in the past and that it will have an affect on the past participants. You may or may not have had the experience where you felt an overwhelming urge to follow a...

In Lebanon, Pennsylvania, jeers and taunts drowned out Democrats calling for a health care overhaul at town halls. A swastika was painted on Rep. David Scott’s Smyrna, Ga., office. A man screamed at Senator Arlen Specter, “One day God will stand before you and judge you!” Mary Ann Fieser of Hillsboro, Mo., told Sen. Claire McCaskill at her Missouri health care forum, “If...

Well...I'm sad to report a death. I accidentally killed the ONLY girl flower on my pumpkin plant.  If you don't know the joys of pumpkin sex, let me enlighten you. All pumpkin plants have two kinds of flowers, boys   and girls. NOT MY PHOTOS! TAKEN FROM GOOGLE IMAGE SEARCH. A plant isn't gauranteed to...

You know, what I'm about to say may sound really off key to some but I have to say this on my mom's behalf. When my dad died we all were lost and devastated over his loss in our family and for that matter there is still a huge hole left in our lives. Of Course Scott and I both loved dad in so many ways that it would take a book to explain all that he was to us. It took me a long time and a lot...

So, my boyfriends bestfriend is one of my bestfriends as well. He has gotten himself into some trouble in the past, but for a while seemed to be doing a lot better. He has recently become homeless and it seems after that happened he doesn't care about anything anymore. He drinks like crazy, and just acts terribly. I try my best to keep him on the right track, I bought him clothes so he wouldn't...

This entry is directed toward answering the questions of AnAtheistsPhilosophy. Nothing more, nothing less. As a philosophy and theology major, I will be giving the Catholic perspective, which I believe to be the fullness of truth.  First and foremost, no one can determine who is going to Hell and who is going to Heaven, for judgment of persons is reserved strictly to God alone. I can say,...
