MarkDG Now, I will admit that I do not completely understand all of the facts, but I do not believe that there have been millions of people killed. Not even hundred-thousands! Certainly any loss of life is a tragedy, and I completely sympathize with the fallen...

What movie did you watch when you were a child that you still remember until now

berryliciousme @berryliciousme (1003) • Philippines 5 Jan 08

MarkDG My absolute favorite movie when I was younger (actually not that long ago, I'm pretty young now!), was the Lion King. I watched it constantly (and I do mean constantly). The Sound of Music was really a good movie, not really my type as a general rule, but I...

MarkDG She does seem to be going through some "issues" at the moment. However, I don't really follow celebrity life! I do feel that Courts ruled correctly in removing Britney's custody of her children until the matter becomes clearer. Until such time that it is clear...

MarkDG Real, true, GOOD friends are very very difficult to find. When someone actually becomes this kind of friend to you, don't ever let go of them! Do not let time or distance separate you from you true friends! Just like the saying "bros before hoes".

Swatting Children in Class

MisChasi @MisChasi (77) • Philippines 5 Jan 08

When I was in kindergarten (1981)the teacher would give us a swat in the hand (if parents signed the permission slip) if we talked during class or did anything else that wasn't favorable. Do you think that teachers should be able...

MarkDG I definitely believe that the drop in allowable punishments in public schools is having a negative impact on classroom behavior. Where once a teacher could admonish an unruly student with a physical strike, now that would most likely result in a lawsuit. And,...

ShannyBananny @shaggin (72146) • United States 4 Jan 08

I don't like the things president bush is doing so I am glad to see him going out of the picture pretty soon. I don't really know much about news or politics or anything. I don't very rarely ever watch tv or read newspapers etc so...

MarkDG Ok well first off, I must agree with you on President Bush's performance to some degree. However, I also believe that the alternatives (Al Gore and John Kerry), are much much worse; and, quite frankly, President Bush is doing fairly well considering all the...

MarkDG Absolutely not. "For everyone sins and falls short of the glory of God." No one, NO ONE can avoid sinning at some point. Every evil thought, depraved idea, or malicious action is a sin, and it is not possible to completely remove sin from your life.
