Given your animosity towards the Jews, it's ironic to me that you are so driven by supernatural events that supposedly occurred in Palestine 2,000 years ago. It is you who keeps all of this ancient Middle-Eastern mystical hocus-pocus going. As an American, I don't think its got a heck of a lot to do with me at all.

WELL! You have totally convinced me. If Christianity is the way that you preach it....then I am going to become a Jew! I would far rather stand in solidarity with the Jews than to be in any way related to your type of Christianity. You are poison....you sicken me....not that you care. But the whole mess in Kosovo sickens me too. Both sides. I read all the words that all of you have said....and I feel sick. Sad and sick. How can we bomb them? And yet how can they do "ethnic cleansing"? I was searching the web, and I came across a picture that a six year old Serbian girl had drawn. It was of her house. It looked like the outside of an American house. It had a green lawn and a see-saw in front of it. And she had drawn clouds...and in the clouds she had written, "NATO STOP!" I wanted to hug her...I didn't want to bomb her or her country. But people talk of how the Serbians will hate us....but what of the refugees? Do you think they will not hate the Serbs? I read about an Albanian teen-ager that wanted to be a teacher. She had pets, she had siblings...she had parents. Where is she now? Until people see...and I mean REALLY SEE that we are ALL human...that there IS no difference between us....what does it take? Someone on here once talked about that Greeks considered Albanians as thieves, etc. Well, my background taught me that Greeks were dirty little thieves. Was my background right? So...is what Greeks consider Albanians to be correct? If what Greeks consider what Albanians to be is true....should I then conclude that what I learned about Greeks is also true? The only way to stop the hate....is to stop the hate. How does one do that? How would I feel if my child was raped and killed? I would hate. But I wouldn't hate the entire people. I would hate the war. I would hate how it turned men into animals. I had two great-grandfathers. One fought for the North in the Civil War. One was six years old and lived on a Confederate plantation. A group of Yankees rode in and while my great-grandfather hid in the barn, he was able to watch in horror as the Yankees raped and killed his mother. He HATED ALL YANKEES for the rest of his life! He could not even talk coherently about them. Was he right? How would he have felt to learn that his great-granddaughter (me)would be as much a part of the North as she was a part of the South? Oh well, excuse the ramblings. I've got a lot more things to ramble about, <g>....was going to be quiet, but Emile got me riled up. I CAN NOT STAND that type of Christianity. Your God is NOT my God, Emile! Back to lurking, Juanita
