Religion & Spirituality > Christianity (Other) Should we fear God?: 3 of 23

Health & Fitness > Addiction Is addiction to alcohol or drugs a disease?: 20 of 40

You should be or have been an ardent user of these substances to write about, whether it's a disease or not. First of all having been a user of both alcohol or addicted to drugs I do think they both are diseases.

Autos > Buying Used Cars How to buy a certified pre-owned vehicle: 3 of 4

The term "Certified Pre-Owned vehicle" is nothing more than the one or two year old vehicles sold by dealers all over the U.S. that were previously known as Program cars. They mostly are made up of rental cars, turned in by Avis, Hertz, etc. When they buy these cars in bulk, they are guaranteed not to lose money on their purc... More..

The most mysterious wolves to ever inhabit the united states was the large species of what the ranchers called the Lobo.

Personal Finance > Loan Basics Guide to loan amortizations: 3 of 3

This is something that needs to be discussed. In the fifties and sixties most loans were either discount interest or add on interest. If you had borrowed money at that time, for instance one thousand dollars for one year at ten percent discount interest, you would only get nine hundred dollars in proceeds. You still need one ...
