Bible

Why is it in America childern can not read a Bible in school but they can in prison?

They can read a bible in school. We studied the bible in my 12th grade English class. Anytime they want to read it, all they have to do is go to the library, it's not like a banned book. Public schools just can't teach the bible as true religion, you can look at it from a cultural perspective, a literary perspective, and a historical perspective.

How come if you are to testafy in a court room, being you law is based on english common law except one place is nepolianic, how come they can not put up the ten commandments but you must swear on a bible?

This is all stuff people were telling me at a party Jake and I went to.

I'm blame everything on Southerners.

Damned crazy bible toting confederates.

But seriously, the constitution doesn't say anything specifically about the seperation of church and state. That was just a precedent set by the Jeffersonian administration. The only thing we have to judge this difficult issue with is the very broad first amendment. OK, so the freedom of religion is protected, but now how far do we go to enforce that? There's some really interesting court cases surrounding the issue. There's one envolving a native american who wanted to be allowed to smoke hashish because in his religion the smoking of hashish was believed to allow contact with ancestral spirits. I believe he lost that case.

The Indian was right, you smoke that stuff and you see a lot of the world that is invisable to outhers. Also Tate was drunk at that party and more interrested in the German girl who lives in my building than the bible.

To be honest-....
I hate all those narkos... from a simple alcohol... up to heavy stuffs..
I dont belive in those things.. sure.. they can make a differenets, but its (their state of minds..not mine)and I love to be myself🙂
MYSELLF and MY THOUGHT...🙂you know....I LOVE to be ME.....how many of you have a same situatation.....??

please dont think of me as an arrogant..

okay....my question to you is....what is the true meaning of "arrogant?" No need for labels....that only causes confusion..we are what we are in each moment..nothing more, and nothing less - constanly changing.

As a man thinketh, so shall he be.....

To me, you are a human with a spirit that contains unlimited love and light.

I am sorry for delay...

Yes freebird?in my experience everyone that admit about (their love to themselves, being accused to be a kind of arrogant) that?s why I?ve said in advanced that I am not an arrogant or self- busy type..!! as long as you are quite about it its o.k. "but once you?ve mention it" it gives an image "most of the time the wrong one".. of course you are a great lady with a lots of wisdom, but some may get it wrong..
And thank you for your nice words..

btw.. whats Hooka..?? you Americans got a lot of strange stuffs...hehe.. as far as I know hookah is a smoking gadget and when I was in Egypt tried it once...(cant stand the smell of the RAW tobaco's).

As for the (special smoking)to use with. I have tried weeds once or twice too...but they have very bad effect on my head (same goes for a alcohol)so.... I stick with my normal Cigarettes...nasty habbit,I know...I am working on it.
🙂

You are correct about the hookah...guess I just spelled it wrong.

Now quit smoking over there!!!!! Breathe deep, very - very deep...you now are smoke free 🙂
