Depends on where in the cities and where in the country. The quality of education in rural areas often far exceeds that of a city school.

What source tells you this??

I have been raised in a rural town until I finally moved to a city, and I always believed that urban education is potentially higher quality than rural education.

Even with the increased individual attention in rural school systems, the fact that too many rural families (IMO) want to shelter their children from the real world hinders that quality from making rural educaiton better.

Tell me something new.

So 35% of Americans are Jerks??..hmm..well, I am a Christian, I sit and dont judge, sometimes share the Gospel through Word here, but kinda Odd, isnt it, How a lot of people will attack a Christian, get right ignorant acting and its ok, but let someone talk about Gays, and lets not forget that its being an abomination unto God, Now thats a hot-topic so to speak,well, then they are jerks

I dont get some folks logic here in this OT. I mean, I have seen a lot of excellent views and counter-views. I dont agree with some topics, but then i dont read them. I am offended when people attack God as if God were someone to toy with. I pray for them and , well, it just makes me kinda stop and wonder why a lot of people allow "alternative lifestyle" issues to be acceptable and anyone whom is against it is a jerk, but anyone whom is a christian is most allways attacked here.

Just my small input, and well, I will be in Honduras building a church for my Lord, leaving this evening and will be back Sept.04. I am sure by then many responses will have been given, some intelligent,some not, some abusive some informative.

~Peace~

When the economy is tanked like it is now, research is one of the first things companies cut, so we'll take whatever we can get. We do warn them about reliability if they chintz out.

It is possible to do very good research over the internet. But it is considerably more costly. If you start with a nationally balance sample, suplementing mail and phone surveys to round out the lower income households and seniors, it helps. Then with the proper weighting methodology you'd be surprised at the quality of the results.

When the topic is time sensitive, the internet can beat the telephone for getting the highest number of respondents in the shortest period of time.

And if you're not as concerned about the quality of the results or at least understand how it biases the results, the internet is the CHEAPEST and fastest way to receive results. (and sometimes if you're targeting higher income households, the internet is not that bad)

Aren't you guys all fired up for the elections? I thought they kept you busy during an election year. Or doesn't your company do political work?

If it is an abomination unto God, as you put it,shouldn't you be praying for their souls? Instead of chastising them for being gay? Isn't it God's problem to deal with?

I do pray for ALL sinners souls, including mine. I dont judge, but then I do feel led to inform all people how God feels.

Oh and for the record, its not what "I" say, but God's inspired word. just wanted to share that, as God judges, not man, BUT..Man has been compelled and convicted to share the Gospel, not meaning to overtly flaunt nor hide the Truth. Let God's Word stand on its own. I dont beat or "Bible-Thump" I merely share.

God, for the record, has ordained Christians to spread the Gospel, the "Truth" of Jesus.

According to Christians he has ordained them to spread the Gospel.

Muslims believe the same.

So do Jews.

Troll: I think the issue is that 35% of the people are judging someone based on their orientation. And as the bible says "judge not lest ye be judged"

I'd like to point out that gays are openly welcome in the Canadian Boy Scouts and the Canadian Military.

Thanks.

Hi Bruce, this is God.

I do not think very highly of your attitudes towards your fellow man, and I condemn you to an eternity on the set of Richard Simmons Hits Broadway.

Thank you and have a great day.

I'm probably one of the least religious people someone is likely to meet but I have to agree that there is a clear double standard. The far left posters on this site do milaign Christians, attempt to excuse the acts of murder commited by Muslim facists, and then they get indignant if anyone disagrees with them.

A little more balance would be welcome.
