  Proving Your Faith Starts With Accepting Others' Faith

  

  By schlage, Erie, PA

  Have you ever met someone who wants to prove what their faith means to them? Have you ever met someone who does that by downgrading another faith? I believe strongly in many of the principles of my faith, but I can't help feel ashamed when someone who shares that same faith, insults another rel...

  Mario Mania on Nintendo

  

  By schlage, Erie, PA

  In my opinion, the Mario games are some of the best of all time. Whether you have a gamecube, wii, or some kind of ds, Mario games are #1. Not only are they classics, but they're also fun and challenging. They've been around since the N64 and the first version of gameboy. There are also so...

  Keep the Drinking Age the Same

  

  By schlage, Erie, PA

  I've recently read a lot of articles about people wanting the drinking age lowered to 18. I disagree with this 100%. You may be technically an "adult," but the day you truly become an adult is when you are ready to be completely responsible for your actions. If 18 yr. olds were allowe...

  Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1

  

  By schlage, Erie, PA

  Just as I expected, the first part of HP 7 was amazing. The storyline was, as always, great and even though I read the books, the movies always amaze me. If you're worried that it might drag, don't. Some people thought this because the book spans over a lot of time. The movie moves at a go...

  Gulf Oil Spill

  

  By schlage, Erie, PA

  Lately BP's been running these commercials about how hard they're working to fix what they've done. Well, here's a problem. They've already damaged so much wildlife and water that most of it can't be fixed quickly. Some of the damage will take years to clean up. Not to ...
