Religion has been the beginnings of war, the cause of deaths, and seperation of families/friends...But religion has been the reason for hope, and change. Religion is the reasons why some folks get out of bed in the mornings. But its amazing the amount of religions throughout the world all claiming to be the right one to get to heaven and save you from hell. But have you ever really looked at the various religions and looked to see that some really aren't that different from the other, its all about presentation and perception. With all the things in the world both good and bad being done all in the name of a religion, its a wonder that folks still have faith. Well as a norm, I would NEVER go into religious and political discussions, but I've decided to step outside the norm and tackle a topic thats outside my comfort zone. My goal is to open folks eyes that in different cultures and depending on where a person is in life, they may practice a religion that may not necessarily be in line with your personal views, but should be respected as food for that individuals soul. There is no right or wrong answer, but hopefully a level of understanding and acceptance.

Or surgeries that make your stomach smaller but because it is such an extreme diet you lose the weight quickly BUT you have to deal with excess skin from the fast weightloss, nutrient deficiencies, potential heart problems or worse DEATH. Has technology made us lazy to lose the weight the right way? Do folks no longer feel accountable for what they put in their bodies, because of the resources available to lose the weight quickly?

If you have a great relationship, sometimes it seems like the powers of evil conspire to break up your happy home. But if the unthinkable happens: INFIDELITY!! Its up to the offended mate to decide do I stay and work it out, or do I leave? The worst part? If you stay, it seems like the cheating never leaves the relationship, its like an albatross hanging from your neck, the scarlet letter on your chest...Some believe once a cheater always a cheater, others say it was a temporary moment of insanity, but the real question is, can you get past it, or is that a clue to move on?

My response is: Why do you ask? Now, I will admit I have a strong personality and I like what I like and I don't do anything that makes me uncomfortable. But others perceive that to mean I don't know what being submissive in a relationship entails. What does it mean to you? Do you know a woman who is so submissive that she can only do what the man in her life says to do and won't deviate from that without his permission?

From sagging pants to extreme cleavage, from business casual to corporate suits. When you see someone do you automatically determine who they are and what type of person they may be based on their clothes? When you hear about a woman thats been raped, do you ask or even think "I wonder what she was wearing", or if you hear about a robbery or murder, do you automatically imagine what the culprit looks like?
