Ya raw is funny, so is delirious. Francisco's good too though.

Just me thinking out loud here. If all the believers of this site voiced their disgust to your intellectual badgering of their belief and, voted to ban you from this site how would you feel about their logical reasoning then? I don’t believe in any religion either, and if there was a priest who constantly tried to prove a point and make others believe it, that would be insulting to the majority who don’t want to believe. The question of this topic is, “Do you believe in god”. Voice your opinion on why you do or don’t believe in God and move on. People should stop trying to convince others that any one belief, whether it’s logical or biblical is the true belief. This is the reason for wars dating back centuries.

Pablo Francisco - This guys is hillarious, I dont know if most of you have heard of him before or not, but hes very funny.

True^, the main difference here is that, the conflicting views were over policy and information provided by the CIA which is a part of the government. LTP is not even a part of the government, hes an outsider, a has been. We dont even know where he has been for the past 10 years, or who he has been with.

Axper jan, inch surpi nman mi marta tsavet tanem. Armenians take politics to close to heart. Politics is a ruff and hard ball business, people rise and fall on conspiracies and must always be carefull to whom they align themselves with. Manvel new very well the risks he was taking when he aligned himself with LTP. And armenia needs generals loyal to the president not opposition leaders, regardless of how much they like the opposition leader. Facts, LTP wasnt even a part of the government when Manvel went against the presidental demand. If it is revealed tomm that LTP has been conspiring with Azeri's to overthrow the Armenian government, Manvel will be in a heap of trouble.

Im interested in this evidence. Please enlighten me on this issue. Assuming my interpretation of the word "evidence" is the same as yours.

Rose A rose that had bloomed the first time I could see. To sleep in the arms of a love so sweet No conditions no regrets unconditional love is all I would get. The love of a mother so sweet so kind Could be replaced with none of a kind Thos who don’t know will always regret To have never have a mother whom you’ll never forget.

Thank you for your response. I'm interested in this evidence. Please enlighten me on this issue. Assuming my interpretation of the word "evidence" is the same as yours. Aside from the fact that most sexual predators grow their desire from this? I don’t have the stats in front of me, but let me try to get as close as possible. Scientific evidence on sexual predators cannot be conducted in the conventional ways one might conduct an experiment. This is the human mind, it is very complicated. One might also note that the human mind can be healthy, ill, and trained to think in certain ways. The affect of open sexuality on adults does not interest me as much as what it does to children, and how it affects their up-bringing. For example, children believe in Santa Clause because they’re impressionable, fortunately Santa wont get them pregnant. The problem is that sexual openness and pornography is looked at as another form to make money. Its not on your screen because someone out there believes that you should understand sex and accept it as human nature. It’s there because someone wants you to become a client, and spend your money on their product. That alone should show how much immoral the degree of pornography and sexuality is today.

First of all, Im not a religous person. Second, youre the one who claims to have an agenda to promote non-theism. Your technically the equivelant of a self proclaimed preacher accept in non-Theism. And its interesting to ask, since religion sets its foundations on these issues, would you prefer someone to ask you if you would bet your money on the Lakers winning the finals this year or not to better understand your agenda? Nice talking to you.

It’s quite simple actually. The believer is one who trusts in his belief and can answer with eternal salvation when asked to why he acts out his belief. A believer takes personally his belief, and has grown into it, as it has become a part of him. Creating an agenda to rob one of his beliefs is the same as creating an agenda to silence those who don’t believe. The problem is that you have an AGENDA, when you speak so lowly against those who have agendas themselves, i.e. Christianity, or Islam, or any other agenda driven entities. Like I said I question you because I’m curious to how you would answer it, instead you’ve chosen to quote people I must read about to better understand what it is you’re saying. I was expecting something along the lines of; I think adultery is immoral, or the mate should consider why his spouse is no longer happy and work on fixing this problem, or , sex is a pleasure one must experience in life thru consistency, maybe even that one may love another while enjoying different sexual partners. Different people have different views; do you have any personal views outside of your agenda? If this line of questioning is to personal then feel free to opt out at any time. As far as prostitution goes: I think commercialized pornography deteriorates the human body, its in our television sets, the internet, and it leaves an effect on a person when he or she is exposed to this content, and considers it a norm. Those who don’t understand that sex is in human nature will not begin to understand if society jumps from one extreme to the other, and makes sex available at any time one chooses.

I'm extremely sorry, my Armenian is limited to street slang. I think you said that before we get to poems and such we should concentrate or putting toghether an organization to protect spyurkahyes? I dont consider it as lies. Or lying to the people in order to bring business. Im looking at it simply from a business aspect. What do business men do to bring in clientel. Sell Sell Sell. Armenians are in mass numbers younger then we have been in decades, just about every young Armenian is willing to do their portion or part in bringing Armenia to its feet. Martkants charashahumen vortev martik tuyl en tali. Dont deny people from doing business in Armenia because they have left a bad taste in your mouth. Teach people, create an organization here in America that people who wish to do business in Armenia should consult with before hand. Make sure all laws are in place and all legal documents are in tact. Cross all the T's dot all the I's before any money is exchanged. Simple, thats how you ensure the safety of the investor. Now all you need is motivation.

I would say something about your agenda, but I dont think it would be proper. On the other hand, out of curiousity, what are your views on life, like in general. How do you see things like, adultry, pornoghraphy, hatred, murder. Im curious because ive never had a serious conversation with a non-deist. the last time i spoke to one I was a firm believer, and now, well, things have changed.

Lol. Who? Im happy that you liked my poem but I have no clue who youre talking about..Should I google them? 82 is my birth date. LK are my initials, actually, LKK are my initials. but I forgot to include the middle K when I created the account. P.S. Lola sounds like a girls name, Im male.

It gets deep into the mind of the character. And how he becomes a killer, and how he deals with himself after. The plot is very thick, there are several important characters and many things going on at one time. It does have many sad moments and overall it is a sad story. alot of depression, anxiety and guilt is expressed in the characters. Its a great book, If you have the time you should definetely read it. Make sure you get the right version of it, Dostoyevksi wrote all his books in Russian, there are some translations in English that dont do justice to his original work. I dont have the book by me, when I do Ill post which one I read.

1-I love the re-unite portion. We need the president of Armenia to lead this effort; I believe it’s the only way it can be done. If he steps up and gives speeches, visits Armenian colleges, high-schools in and outside of Armenia. Organizes town hall meetings in diverse parts of the world were Armenians live in mass numbers, he can talk to them, take questions and explain his vision of how he wants to unite Armenians and, how we should remember why we are so disbursed in the first place. The president is the key to any unification of Armenians. 2- Create an organization that should act as watchdog for the news agencies, we should do that first. Then lobby for less restrictions on the press. In respect to the government we should also acknowledge that news agencies have a habit of following their own agendas, or the agendas of their "investors" which aren’t always very transparent to the public. I don’t think Armenian press agencies should be given the same amount of freedom to press, as let’s say the American press agencies are given. Only because Armenia’s population is still very fragile and can easily be manipulated by outside forces. Immediate changes that should be made in regards to the press should be prosecution for any person who threatens or harms a reporter for taking a picture, or writing an article. 3- If you’ve done the crime you should do the time. If they aren’t immediately released then they should at least be given the right to a speedy trial so the courts can decide what they’re guilty of and how long the sentence should be, if at all. 4- Artsax, independent from what? 5- I love the idea, but tsur nstenk tuz xosank, we’ve got several pawns left on the chess board and barely keeping our king from check. I don’t think were in a position to send any "strong" signals to anyone. But definitely worth noting. 6- Definitely, were not just cash cows. But the only way to change that is to change our approach and improve the economy. A few thoughts of my own: A ) Create an organization within the government responsible of winning the hearts and minds of Armenians around the globe. Send these reps to interact with Armenians, just let them know that things are changing in Armenia for the better, and we're here to create a direct contact with all major Armenian organizations including the people. Maybe even create new music, poems, literature that expresses the views of how to unite Armenians. B ) Better military training is a must, each ONE Armenian soldier should be the equivalent of 3 Azeri, or Turkish soldier. I would imagine our greatest military strength should be strategy. I don’t condone war at all, I just think we should be more prepared the next time if history tries to repeat itself, and if we’re not, then we can blame ourselves. C ) Create good paying jobs, more money people spend in Armenia the more Armenia will grow. Armenia cannot grow unless the people have money to spend. Jobs = strong economy. Strong economy = strong government. D ) Find a way to settle the A.G 1915 debate with Turkey once and for all.

I wrote this over a year ago. Shadow Eyes are vital yet careless to see Its vigilance has become quiescent to me A breath into darkness has surrounded me Watching blind folded as the future approaches silently Wait just a minute gather your thoughts How can this be, Im alone in the dark. My surroundings have changed yet still Im alone. How did I get here, where have I gone. My thoughts overflow and recite its self I must some how restrain myself Still I object to my thoughts and why Im here I know for a fact the answer is near Then I hear a loud sound, a thump in the dark I hear its breath roar, it scents fear from my heart My patience is diminished my eyes are a sweat My legs are now numb feeling distress I stand to walk but feel paralyzed My dismay has control over my size At my breath now what shall I speak Shall I ask for forgiveness for I am weak? Should I kneel to its force and say I am yours Or will it crush me as others whove knelt at its door Unaware of the light of hope which returned Awaking to loneliness as quite is stirred There was no such thing, but my imaginations kin. I look all around and see others the same As we look at each other with suspicion in mind And forget all except our profits in mind So we find our seat for its ours to possess And proceed to make comfort at our lonely nest Within a moment, again, the darkness arrives This succubus has returned with fever of hate Am I prepared to handle my fate? My eyes see movement of the darkness Im in Then suddenly a reign of hope begins. A voice in the light calls out to my name. Close your eyes my son and have faith in me. But I cannot do this for the beast will be free To attack at his will if I cannot see. Close your eyes now; I will say this no more The voice is speaking softly yet stronger then before. Close your eyes now for you dont understand The beast is your mind and your soul is the dark. What is this soul is it mines to possess. Yes my son its your most precious gift Now close your eyes tight and think with your heart Your eyes can no longer help in the dark. Ive given you all and youve chosen such few For so much love I still feel for you It closes in slowly pressuring your faith. Its sound adds weight to my growing distrait I question you father for why am I hear What is the reason for living in Fear? Why is it dark but so Im not blind Yet my eyes see nothing but thoughts in my mind. Understand one thing youre free to be loved That feeling you feel is love in your heart. War is not the answer to all of your fears That beast can be loved it wont leave you in tears. Before I leave now for centuries and more This last thing I say remember it for sure. You must first love what is within Then think for your life until it must end. After it all your answers Ill hear then final judgment ill pass when the end is here. Here is where it all begins, till the end is revealed Forward to an unseen future for a man made from man Upon the path of life played throughout the sands of time Journeys and experiences can always be retold But your life in essence will one day grow old The view of a loved one brings comfort untold A salute to your life when your child is born. To a child from love comes a child worth loving To a parent who cares has a child whos caring Who views his mother thru his caring heart And his father the mentor from his growing start. Little time passes in life before it is finally gone And this story is to be told when life has begun As Seasons come and go; days pass away as night turns to day. Happiness is a luxury we cannot always possess. Sadness, a misfortune we do not want to possess. Life is full of these things that are called unexpected Man is born with promises of freedom and pursues happiness but never is child promised reality and its bitterness. He is thought to overcome much if he tries hard enough yet he is judged by failures if he fails long enough. Our triumphs are remembered and marked in time as history tells tails of what man has left behind. While living in the present and remembering the past yet the future is a story with an unwritten past the future is blurred like a thick fog and wind but this future will one day become your best friend. How you treat this friend is how you treat yourself forgiving your wrongs and moving on with your help. Trust in what you find when right is against wrong And if your judgments can be rewritten, then rewrite them in stone And if you still make a mistake now and then Remember that in life you must first become your best friend.

Religion is what: A human perception of historical events which require one to "believe" in something rather then understand it. I do believe that there is a greater being. I understand that religion is a sensitive topic for many, but I don’t understand how one can have a discussion or debate about religion. Religion cannot be proven or debated with an ultimate product/outcome of either side being right or wrong. So why do people waist their time and effort in trying to do this. Religious people should have the right to defend themselves; all people should have the right to believe in what ever they choose to without fearing persecution by any government or social structure. I use to be a devout Armenian Orthodox-Christian. But, I have (not because of any professor or education) lost my will to believe. For reasons I don't care to explain. This doesn’t mean that I now live based on an Atheistic agenda or thrive to rid Christianity from society. Also, if I ever had to side with one religion in a conflict, my decision would be based on intellect, that which is more humane and understanding to the needs of a human-being.

True, although I used the word help when I shouldve used a different one, believe me when I say that I'm no stranger to knowing I have to do my share, and every share counts. I agree about learning to stand back. There are some people here who amaze me, but theyre not just in America theyre all over. I'll keep my posts on topic and more on the productive ideas rather then concentrating on the past. It was nice talking to you, and I look forward to doing it more often. Good-night.

Thanks, its a pleasure to be here.

What is there to be done, or can be done. I live in America, how can I help? How can I get involved to help, or involve others to help? The problem consists of frustration within the people who have nothing, compared to those who have everything. The lack of Health-care, jobs, law enforcement, or laws that look out for the average person working for their employer. Laws that guarantee security for investors who can bring jobs to Armenia by opening factories. There should be some serious lobbying to the Armenian government to create these laws and back them. Those who say that the government is corrupt, fail to understand that the government was not just corrupt. It went to a filtering process flushing out whatever it needed to for it to gain stability. Many nations have undergone this process before becoming what they are today. Any successful and drastic changes today will halt all progress which has already been made. How much more can the Diaspora do? Most of us just send money, because that’s all we can do, send money for food, heat, electricity, and ask how things are there and what else they need.

Right! People seem to forget how difficult he made everyday life for regular Armenians living under his term, what we had he sold for his and vanos benefits. Majority of the weapons Armenia used during the Karabax war were there during the soviet rule. The expense of weaponry and bullets should not have accumulated the expense many seem to be claiming these days as the reason to why he sold so much of what belonged to Armenia. This isn’t a case of being a conspiracy theorist. Anyone who understand or tries to understand how countries manipulate and sabotage to gain political control over other countries can see how this LTP is all a sham, a smoke screen for what is really behind his faulty promises.

Some people I know keep insisting that Levon (LTP) should be the "chosen one" to lead Armenia into the bright future which it so deserves. I myself cannot easily accept this idea. I understand the current political situation in Armenia might be somewhat corrupt. But given the fact that just 10 years ago no one would’ve imagined Armenia to be as successful as it is today is a major accomplishment which deserves credit to Mr.Kocharian and the Armenian communities. What has Levon done? He’s apologized to Armenians for being more of a terrible president than a good one right before he decided to run for presidency. If Levon really cared about the Armenian people he had many opportunities within the past 15 years to prove it.
