Actress Garcelle Beauvais, better known as “Fancy” from “The Jamie Foxx Show,” has been greatly affected by the tragedy that has struck Haiti. She herself grew up on the island, coming to the States with her parents at the young age of seven.
The news has continued to report on the status of the country, detailing the death toll, the emergence of rescue teams, and the unfortunate change in the behavior of its natives, as they are turning to looting in desperation and beginning to show less patience as the days pass.
She tells Larry King: “You have to question faith, in a way, you do. I mean, you don’t understand, especially a place like Haiti. We’ve been hit so hard by lots – why would this happen? I don’t know. This is the country that deserves this the least – not that anybody deserves it. But we are resilient and we are proud. Even if we have nothing, we are very, very proud. It’s unfortunate. It’s devastating.”
HERE’S HOW YOU CAN HELP HAITI!
She continues: “We have family we haven’t been able to contact… cousins… We have no contact. We spoke to my brother-in-law through e-mail yesterday. We got an e-mail and he was in the car. He said it sounded like a bomb went off. It was just that loud.”
“It’s really hard to take. It’s really hard to watch. I mean, seeing the one picture of the baby covered under the rubble, because they couldn’t get to it… Those are my people. Those faces are my family. The worst is not knowing.”

The purpose of Jesus was to show a concrete example by living day to day just how easily possible it is to live according to your highest potentials.
His main messages:
Love God.
Love thy neighbor and treat them as you would want to be treated.
Be compassionate towards the downtrodden among you.
Do your best in each moment and use compassion as a way of life.

Don’t question your faith.
Question H.A.A.R.P.
As for the atheists vs believers debate most are using emotion as fuel rather than facts.
Fact: Life only comes from pre-existing life.
Millions of efforts over thousands of yrs have yet to create life in a laboratory or observe it randomly spontaneously arising anywhere.
Fact: Genesis says the “sin” was disobeying and eating the fruit of the tree of knowledge of Good and Evil before they were mentally prepared. The result soon after was murder and the crimes of man against man.
Fact: Genesis was an experiment. The people created and all of their descendants from Adam to Noah lived over 900 yrs (Gen Chapter 5) and thats without having access to the fruit of immortality.
That is a powerful heritage to come from a godly image with similar genetic potentials.
We have a divine heritage with vast potential for extremes of good or evil depending on the home training.
The point is USE your potentials to their max instead of allowing others to point you down the path of self destruction.

@Black_Queen09
is it a lie that the god of the christian bible is a genocidal racist murderer. i mean if you were not born of the israelites in those centuries, your god will kill you to make way for his chosen people. but yeah i do admit, god realized his mistake and sent jesus to allow the rest of the world to become part of his people. perfect supreme being?

I AM OF THE HOUSEHOLD OF GOD… PLEASE DON’T BELIEVE ANYTHING THAT… THE ANTI-CHRIST Califemme23 GOT TO SAY… BECAUSE SHE IS NOTHING MORE THAN THE INTERNET LIAR… SHE DON’T KNOW NOTHING ABOUT THE TRUTH OF GOD… JUST CHECK OUT THIS LIE… THAT SHE IS TRYING TO SELL TO YA’LL…
Califemme23 Said on 01-22-2010 BELOW: I pose this to all YOU believers. What was it that Adam ate that he wasn’t suppose to eat? It wasn’t just an apple. It was the fruit of the Tree of KNOWLEDGE. The GLARING message? ‘Get smart and i’ll f**k you over’ sayeth the ‘Lord’. God is the smartest, and he doesn’t want any Competition. Is this not absolutely anti-intellectual religious? What kind of person would i be to worship some imaginary entity that doesn’t want me to be intelligent person?
Califemme23 IS JUST A NATURAL BORN LIAR… SHE CAN’T TELL THE TRUTH ABOUT NOTHING… BECAUSE IT IS COMMON KNOWLEDGE THAT EATING… FROM THE TREE OF KNOWLEDGE BROUGHT SIN INTO THE WORLD…
GENESIS CHAPTER 3, VERSE 22: AND THE LORD GOD SAID, BEHOLD… THE MAN IS BECOME AS ONE OF US… TO KNOW GOOD AND EVIL… AND NOW LEST HE PUT FORTH HIS HAND… AND TAKE ALSO OF THE TREE OF LIFE… AND EAT, AND LIVE FOR EVER…

undralique, you quoted “I rather believe in God ,die, and find out he isn’t real, than not to believe in him and find out he truly exists”
So what you’re basically saying is that you only believe for “just in case” purposes? Sorta like having “soul insurance” hunh?
Get the f**k outta here…….

Rather you believe in God or not…as African people religion is the least of our issues. I thank the Brother, in San Diego county of all places, for commenting on this house nigga. How can you be born in Haiti of all places and give away the gold. And what’s worst under capitalism, he has and will always have more privileges than her. Why is her dumb ass not set financially for life. I am strictly saving my gold for Brother’s exclusively. Cuz at the end of the day, you are still a nigga.
Thank you sprewell015 for representing. These so-called Sistas should have been saying something. Its sickening. And we wonder why Michael Jordan, OJ, Diddy, Tiger, Jaimee Foxx and others are so corrupt in the mind. Go figure. When I hear comments from Brother’s, like was stated by this “Brother” born in Jamaica and raised in Baltimore, that” he does not see color!”
He lives in San Diego and there is a large population of Brothers there that feel this way.
Goes to show we have more than our religious beliefs to work on!
Peace Africans

Life in general is designed to mess with your faith…been that way since the beginning of time. For every beautiful thing that happens to one person, a horrible thing happens to someone else. It’s all relative, and the horrible way so many lost their lives in Haiti and the countless other devasting things that happen to people all over, makes you wonder…I feel you Garcelle

Ummm, had to share this thought from my evil little mind….
I pose this to all of YOU believers..What was it that Adam ate that he wasn’t supposed to eat? It wasn’t just an apple. It was the fruit of the Tree of KNOWLEDGE. The GLARING message? ‘Get smart and I’ll f**k you over’ sayeth the ‘Lord’. God is the smartest, and he doesn’t want any Competition. Is this not an absolutely anti-intellectual religion? What kind of person would I be to worship some imaginary entity that doesnt want me to be an intelligent person?

From my life experience I know that “it is the fool that says there is no God!!!!!!!!!!!!” I love that I was raised in the right way because I may have gone astray but I thank God that I did not stay that way!

undralique, To all the NON atheists….There is only ONE big difference between atheists and the ‘believers’…WE do NOT need an explanation for EVERY living thing, person,place,occurance,instance,plant,animal,element,climate,curkumstance in life….YOU guys do…Believing in ‘god’ is just an added burden to life. We already have enough to deal with and you guys really want to convince US that we need to also be FRIGHTENED of something that even you arent sure exists? It’s amazing how you guys DONT embrace all those murderers that kill entire families, co workers, even themselves and say ‘God made me do it’…you guys think they are insane….BUT they believe in god though….SMH such confusion!!

To all the atheists ,there is this famous quote that someone said ” I rather believe in God ,die, and find out he isn’t real, than not to believe in him and find out he truly exists.God Bless.
