Doctors and psychologists are not a great deal of help because you need to work on YOURSELF and aim to decrease your hyper-sensitivity.

How do you rate the American-Israeli relationship? Is Israel still an asset, or inching towards becoming a liability for America?
The fact is,it has always been a potential liability but the USA is umbilically linked to Israel because of the Jewish Connection,and anyway the USA likes to play a dangerous game in the Middle East,which has backfired on occasions,like when the Israelis sank the spy/reconnaisance ship USS Liberty,and will no doubt backfire again.

Has anyone noticed that if America doesn't like something, they'll declare war on it? War on poverty, war on hunger, war on terrorism, war on drugs, etc... Gods I'm surprised there isn't a war on education by now. What is America? Just a constant war?
It is said that WAR is the only way Americans learn about GEOGRAPHY,and this is usually attributed to Ambrose Bierce,if you have come across him?
Therefore,I can only think that this constant declaring of WAR against far-flung little countries by the USA,is in the earnest pursuit of getting their fellow Americans to learn more about the subject of geography.

There is no such thing as perfection. Do you think that's why some people are never satisfied because they expect perfection?
In The Bible [Matthew 5:48] Jesus exhorts his disciples:
"Be ye therefore perfect,even as your Father in heaven is perfect."
Therefore,anyone who meditates on this exhortation and takes Jesus at His Word,will strive constantly in all they do for perfection. The implication is that the goal is achievable,otherwise Jesus would not have given His exhortation to his disciples.
AMEN!

How do I determine a canary's gender?
Easy! The male canary tends to rap a lot,like Jay-Z does,and the femaly canaries sing so sweetly,like Beyonce.
......Or maybe it's the other way round,I've forgotten. It's some time since I've had any contact with canaries. Parrots...well,that's ANOTHER matter.

In French, if you don't hear what somebody said, do you say "Quoi?" or "Comment?"?

"Comment?" or "Encore?" are possible responses,I suppose,but I would think that a typical French person would simply say: "Pardon?" --of course with a heavy French accent!

Answer to:
Is it appropriate to tell a fellow Christian that they're living a life of sin?
Saint Paul,who tried his best to live the life preached and taught by his Master,Jesus,said that disciples should go out to win converts.
Any politician will tell you you don't win many converts by straightway offending people you don't even know,or by putting their backs up.
This therefore is also a matter of diplomacy,tact and thoughtful tactics.
Answer to:
I've always believed in Jesus, but lately I've been feeling that there's really no excuse for a God creating suffering, no matter what it's purpose! It's useless. I truly almighty God could create a world free of it yet still give us free will. Agree?
Mankind creates its own sufferings. God is perfect.
To suggest otherwise is to impugn God and is in itself sinful,sorry.

Why is the mainstream media still trying to hold up Obama's failed presidency?
Surely it's a bit soon to say that Obama's presidency has "failed"...maybe give the guy until 2010? [!] If Obama's ratings fall to the level of George W.Bush's,then we should all start to be concerned.

When it's raining do you use an umbrella or raincoat, or do you just run as fast as you can?
I like your question,DukeG.
Running as fast as you can in a heavy rainshower does not usually escape you from getting any less wet than if you walked normally.
I am averse to carrying an umbrella,I don't mind a few raindrops,but I resent having to dodge out of the path of all the others carrying umbrellas,and umbrellas seem to be getting larger and larger these days.

Has anyone noticed that if America doesn't like something, they'll declare war on it? War on poverty, war on hunger, war on terrorism, war on drugs, etc... Gods I'm surprised there isn't a war on education by now. What is America? Just a constant war?
Brilliant question,Sir...I have a lot of sympathy with your view. Lonewolf:RESPECT!!
There is certainly a great war brewing at the moment over healthcare.
America thinks it's a law unto itself and that America rules the planet,and every time someone disagrees America throws a hissy fit and starts another deadly conspiracy.

Not all Fundamentalists are necessarily dangerous,unless we are talking about people like Jim Jones. Best to use what is...

Do you think cancer can be cured with faith healing sessions?
BELIEF is everything,the stronger your BELIEF the more likely there will be an effective change for the better. Cancer is just another disease really. Jesus Christ never differentiated between which cures God could heal by/through faith in Him,and which He could not; therefore the inference is that ANY disease is potentially curable.
Hope this helps.

Never! Rice is inedible when raw,and in its cooked state is gooey,sticky,indigestible,and if eaten in a rice dish such as paella leaves you feeling heavy and lethargic.
