4 Weddings And A Funeral maybe?

You are not compatible. What you need is an amicable breakup. It's not healthy at all.

High oil prices as a result of supply failure in Nigeria cannot benefit us.
This is because even if the price is higher, we are selling much less oil.

You see?

Guys, I'm sure she can take care of herself. All she wants from Peter is his seed, and she's got it.

He didn't use an anti-catholic site. He used the book of Exodus and some reasonable arguments.

This is taken from the online version of the Cathechism on the Vatican site
(http://www.vatican.va/archive/catechism/p3s2c1a1.htm#IV)

(1) What exactly do those words mean? (2) You're using a catholic site to defend catholicism??

If you want your finishing school to appeal to grown-ups, don't call it a finishing school.

Now, I give you the last post there and on that note, I choose to quit
posting on this thread as I sincerely HATE debating "feelings".

You know the difference between a normal human being and a psychopath? Feelings. Empathy.

A psychopath thinks: "hey, this guy is in my way, maybe I should kill him. Yeah, it's the smartest thing to do in this situation". So he commits murder. A normal human being thinks, "that's nasty".

When a psychopath commits murder, the first thought in his mind is, "it was unavoidable; how can I avoid getting caught". A normal human being thinks "I've done a terrible thing; how can I ever forgive myself".

When millions of people are dying and your emotions do not come into play, it means you lack humanity.

I bet if I ask Seun what the so called Foreign policies were/are, he would return with IRAQ war as the policy.

The waste of the lives of US soldiers and millions of Arabs for the sake of oil price. The impending war against Iran. The regular practice of raping of female US soldiers and Arab girls. The torture of prisoners who may or may not be innocent. The wasting of trillions of dollars to fight a useless war thus damaging the value of the dollar that the entire world economy relies upon, while enriching government contractors and their affiliates in power. The massive violation of human rights (both Arabs and Americans) both domestically elsewhere in the war against oil price. The lies that have led to millions of deaths.

So, it's not just foreign policy. GW Bush has turned the US into a country we can no longer emulate.
If you catch Obasanjo or Atiku doing something bad, well, GW Bush has done something worse.
It's as if a married man you've held as a mentor all your life was found dead on top of a prostitute.

put your emotions and feelings aside and address this as objectively as you can and focus on giving actual points.

This thread is about why people hate America. "Hate" is an emotion. "Despising Americans for voting a war president twice" is a feeling. This thread is all about feelings. The world's feelings about the current USA.

There's no victim here. He has made his intentions clear,
This just means two of you are not maritally compatible. No beef. Just move on.

We can all sit in the comfort of the US and enjoy its free press and lease of life while we continue to bash her.

Your myopia is one of the reasons the world despises Americans. You think everything revolves around your country. The people that despise Americans do not live in the USA. They live in Europe, Asia and the Middle East, South America, Africa, Australia, and Canada. They most definitely do not enjoy this imaginary "lease of life" you're talking about. Many of them - like the Iraqis - are enjoying a lease of death and blood.

enjoy its free press

The GW Bush government doesn't believe in free press. "If you are not for us and our war, you are against us."

@ Seun, you want to despise someone, make it just Bush. It is pathetic to blame a whole Nation that was clearly mislead and still grieving.

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Americans elected GW Bush twice.

Ouch.

andrewqdg: I very much appreciate your contribution to this thread, while others said nothing.

Finishing schools are for children.
It's not something you would pay to attend.
It's something you would pay for your children to attend

We don't hate America. We hate the policies of GW Bush and despise Americans for voting him in twice!

Once Obama becomes president and he is able to change those policies, we will respect America again.

The stock market is a legitimate investment only if you are a long term investor, otherwise it's gambling!

Will nferyn do it?

This is interesting:

The company plans to establish additional 11 stations to bring the total
stations to 20 in Nigeria in 2008. Its strategy in the Nigerian market emphasizes localisation
of programme content complemented with a national network at specific
periods that should provide improved advertising revenue. It also intends to start
digital transmission in 2008 with specialised channels for movies, entertainment,
sports and news to compete in the market segment currently dominated by DSTV
and HiTV. The company hopes to generate subscription revenue via this platform.

Thanks for the link.

4 Him:
poor comparison on your part. Nigeria is roughly the size of Texas, by simple law of proportions crime rate in the US will be higher than that of Nigeria.

You are absolutely right, Mr. Genius.
The population of the country doesn't matter.
All that matters is how much land we have.
Which is why the north pole is the crime capital of the world.
Followed closely by the Sahara desert and Atlantic ocean.
(That was sarcasm, by the way, in case you missed it)

So it is up to people to decide they will not commit the crime.

That should be "it is up to people to decide that they will not be accused of committing the crime."
Which makes no sense, of course. You don't realize how easy it is to be falsely accused of any crime.

There is no scarcity of husbands in Nigeria. For every 10 women that are born, 11 men are born. Grrr.

I've made some further improvements to my super-hero movie concept. I've introduced elements of religious fantasy. Will keep you updated.

I don't think the town will ever be safe again. Too many weapons in the wrong hands in that area.

Wh can't she just take a second husband? Afterall what's good for the goose is good for the husband?

Mine has a bad habit of biting his nails.

Why do ladies like to obsess over irrelevant things?
I swear I'll dump any girlfriend I have if she turns out to be a nag.

Are the windows rain-proof too?

Government backing and basic welfare programmes my foot.
Do you really believe there are no criminals in welfare countries?
Criminals will always be criminals unless they are caught and punished.
