Why are people making negative remarks about adpotion: buying babies?

Why are people making negative remarks about adpotion: buying babies?
Maybe I dont understand, or maybe others. When adpoting a kid you have to pass all these restrictions ie: make so much money, religion, health, etc, but adpoting in the United States you also have to pay 10k or more. (other countries are smaller amounts) so if it is policy per the United States of America,, to have to pay 10k or more before adpoting, why are people bagging on the clebraties that do have the money to help these children into a home by cutting them down as buying a baby, everyone has to pay to adpot, not many people have that money that's why there are so many kids stuck with out homes. I looked this all up because i may not be able to have kids but want to adopt....they make you pay outrages fees, and it's law but the USA. delorvius and dolav..your comments have nothing to do with my question?? #1 abortion is not right for some people #2 yes your own kids are better but not everyone like me can have one for medical reasons http://adopting.adoption.com/child/adoption-costs.html says right there...the cost....of adopting.

There is a reason why we have abortion.
2 :
kids that are made are the best kids
3 :
It depends on if you go through a private agency or not. There are other options: http://www.adoption.com/ Odd that there is a waiting list of parents wanting to adopt and not enough kids available. But some still claim that Abortion is "needed" Peace!
4 :
I'm with you. My husband and I plan to adopt regardless of infertility. If we can have biological children we will but also adopt because we want a big family. The way we see it is, as long as we have our children it does not matter how they came to us. A child is yours because you raised him/her, it does not matter who's uterus held it.

Can you name me some countries, besides Iran, that are against materialism?

Can you name me some countries, besides Iran, that are against materialism?
I mean, can you name me some countries, besides Iran, that are against doing businesses, making money, being rich & anything else related?? Just like Saudi Arabia, the United States of America & India are countries which are very Pro-Materialistic.

??? Doesn't sound like Iran to me. I would say: Nepal or Bhutan. Very strict environmental laws prevent profiting from natural resources - very unlike Iran! - Jim, http://www.bible-reviews.com/

Wow, you give humans way too much credit. Your answer lies in countries without great class disparity and Capitalism with it`s claws fully engaged.

"can you name me some countries, besides Iran, that are against doing businesses, making money, being rich & anything else related" You poor fool, don't you know the leaders and top 5% in your country live a life of decadence and opulence while you struggle?
4 :
Iran is anti-materialistic? How come there are so many rich Iranians? Some countries may say they are against materialism, but actions speak louder than words.

When the American public understands that Osama Bin Laden has been dead for years?

When the American public understands that Osama Bin Laden has been dead for years?

We really are the terrorists. We invade countries that have nothing to do with one stupid attack that killed less people on our turf than theirs.
2 :
We've had him bottled up since 2002. That's good enough for me until some moron crying out for attention democrat president brings our troops home and frees him. (When complete idiots like you try to make the claim that America is a nation of terrorists, you defile American standards and way of life, and you make people hate all liberals. Maybe you should go live in Beirut or Kandahar or Islamabad and find out what real terrorism is.)

First off don't you dare put me in that "WE" pal. Second, I guess you just ignored the latest video of UBL about a month ago, where he talked about current events. Blind ideology will not serve you well at all.

he is Not dead The CIA thinks he is alive The FBI thinks he is alive The Pentagon thinks he is alive The past bush administration thinks he is alive The current Obama administration thinks he is alive The Security Agencies of... Pakistan Afghanistan Saudi Arabia France and the United Kingdom ALL think he is alive and of course Osama still makes and releases audio tapes on a Regular basis !!!!!
5 :
You do realize that the countries in which we are in were killing their own people and threatening or fighting war, and exporting terrorism on their neighbors before we got there. Hm? Violence that had nothing to do with grievances with us or Israel?
6 :
If he were dead his people would have martyred him. I understand what you're saying about enemy conjuring to bring fear to the people. This has been a practice for a very long time. It was the Nazis and The Red Scare,etc. It doesn't seem to end.

Just something to make your day?

Just something to make your day?
I read this on Yahoo Answers and I just wanna help pass it on :-) I put my carry-on in the luggage compartment and sat down in my Assigned seat. It was going to be a long flight.. 'I'm glad I have a Good book to read Perhaps I will get a short nap,' I thought. Just before take-off, a line of soldiers came down the aisle and Filled all the vacant seats, totally surrounding me. I decided to Start a conversation. 'Where are you headed?' I asked the soldier Seated nearest to me. 'Petawawa. We'll be there for two weeks for special training, and then We're being deployed to Afghanistan After flying for about an hour, an announcement was made that sack Lunches were available for five dollars. It would be several hours Before we reached the east, and I quickly decided a lunch would help Pass the time.. As I reached for my wallet, I overheard soldier ask his buddy if he Planned to buy lunch. 'No, that seems like a lot of money for just a Sack lunch. Probably wouldn't be worth five bucks. I'll wait till we Get to base ' His friend agreed. I looked around at the other soldiers. None were buying lunch. I Walked to the back of the plane and handed the flight attendant a 0AFifty dollar bill. 'Take a lunch to all those soldiers.' She grabbed My arms and squeezed tightly. Her eyes wet with tears, she thanked Me. 'My son was a soldier in Iraq ; it's almost like you are doing it For Him.' Picking up ten sacks, she headed up the aisle to where the soldiers Were seated. She stopped at my seat and asked, 'Which do you like Best - beef or chicken?' 'Chicken,' I replied, wondering why she asked. She turned and went to The front of plane, returning a minute later with a dinner plate from First class. 'This is your thanks.' After we finished eating, I went again to the back of the plane, Heading for the rest room. A man stopped me. 'I saw what you did. I Want to be part of it. Here, take this.' He handed me twenty-five Dollars. Soon after I returned to my seat, I saw the Flight Captain coming down The aisle, looking at the aisle numbers as he walked, I hoped he was Not looking for me, but noticed he was=2 0looking at the numbers only on My side of the plane. When he got to my row he stopped, smiled, h eld Out his hand, an said, 'I want to shake your hand.' Quickly unfastening my seatbelt I stood and took the Captain's hand. With a booming voice he said, 'I was a soldier and I was a military Pilot. Once, someone bought me a lunch. It was an act of kindness I Never forgot.' I was embarrassed when applause was heard from all of The passengers. Later I walked to the front of the plane so I could stretch my legs. A man who was seated about six rows in front of me reached out his Hand, wanting to shake mine.. He left another twenty-five dollars in My palm. When we landed I gathered my belongings and started to deplane. Waiting just inside the airplane door was a man who stopped me, put Something in my shirt pocket, turned, and walked away without saying a Word. Another twenty-five dollars! Upon entering the terminal, I saw the soldiers gathering for their Trip to the base. I walked over to them and handed them seventy-five Dollars. 'It will take you some time to reach the base. It will be About time for a sandwich. God Bless You.' Ten young men left that flight feeling the love and respect of20their Fellow travelers. As I walked briskly to my car, I whispered a prayer For their safe retu rn. These soldiers were giving their all for our Country. I could only give them a couple of meals. It seemed so little... A veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check Made payable to 'The United States of America ' for an amount of 'up To and including my life.' That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who No longer understand it.' May God give you the strength and courage to pass this along to your buddy list....

That so just brought tears to my eyes. It really hit home. We had a situation the other day where it was literally the day before pay day and my husband missed the bus to do some training. My stepfather called the gas station to see if he could pay with his credit card for a bit of gas over the phone. The attendant had the phone on speaker and a customer overheard the conversation. She said she'd give my husband a ride but couldn't wait for him to get there because she had somewhere to be. So she left enough money to fill up his truck at the gas station and said to pass the message of her thanks for his service along to us. We would've loved to have been able to pay her back but she refused to leave any identifying information. That was definitely a blessing and I would love more than anything to hug her and express my thanks.
