First of all, I recognize the possiblity of there being a sense of absolute morals but for the purpose of this question I am assuming that doesn't exist.

At least once a day someone posts a question that highlight some passage of the bible which allows for behavior that by today's standards are viewed as morally wrong.

However, if there is no moral absolutes, how can you say that the Bible's morality is any more or less wrong than your sense of morality or the current cultural sense of morality of wherever you may live?

I would like to do set something up for my newborn niece (and brother and sister-in-law) to help her financially.

What's the best way to do this, what would you suggest? Are there accounts, funds, tools that allow you to contribute pre-tax dollars and not be taxed on the growth?

I am open to setting up a college fund, but leaning to long term goals for my niece i.e., to buy a house or give her headstart on retirement.

Additional Details:
- I make a modest income, but can contribute ~ $20 month.
- I am 40 and figure I have about 25 - 30 years to do this.
- I contribute to 403b retirement accounts

Any help with this is greatly appreciated!

it is said that most people have notgot a great understanding of the religion that they practice, therefore why do you believe what others tell you so blindly? I am an Atheist, but I know more on the subject than most christians!

I know most Muslims know there faith inside out but they are brought up with religion as part of life, most western societys are not.

I've been best friends with this guy for 10 years. We're like brother and sister now. He's been in a serious relationship for about 2 years and I've been in a serious relationship for about a year. Out of respect for our significant others, we don't hang out alone anymore like we used to. His girlfriend has had a friend for quite a while who was just out of the picture and wasn't really in our "friend circle." Now she is the youth pastor at our church and another girlfriend and I have tried to get her to hang out with us and all the times except one she has made an excuse or used her husband as a reason why she couldn't hang out with us or she just doesn't even return our calls. Last Friday, she called my best friend and his girlfriend (also a friend of mine before she and my friend started dating) and asked them if they wanted to go to a movie. I just don't understand why at the very least my best friend wouldn't have invited me too. He knows I've been trying to be friends with this

I have been looking around for online classes/courses that gives you credits, i came up with only a small handful, and most are all over 200$ per class, and some online classes are only online partially, and half of the other time will partake in a college area that is far from home. So PLZ, if anyone knows any good sites or online colleges. Thanks

If you say because you are a good person or do good things. This is called self righteousness. You would be saying you have salvation in yourself and do not need God. Basically you are saying you are your own god.

I mean, I have eye allergy, and I look awful. My face goes all puffy, and leads, and the leads overlap the eye, and then when after the medicine it started to drop, one cheek and eye is better than the other and I simply look ridiculous.
And at the clinic which I attend there are people with other eye
diseases, and theirs are dignified, because their faces are not puffy, and they are wearing bandages, so while everyone feels sorry for them, I am a target for ridicule.
And it's not if I did something or lead the life which led me to
this. I am allergic to all the dust, and all the small bugs and creatures that lives in it, that is why I look like this.
So, why are some illnesses make people ridiculous, and some - like martyrs, though the origin of the illness does not even depend on us?

Another subject that gives me headaches
Abortion.
Here in Brazil abortion is ilegal, also the third cause of death amongst wemen are illegal homemade abortions ( I’m going to stress how bad this is by putting asside my Christians beliefs and write in the clearest form of english: “Its F@cked up”).

1)What is your opinion on this, shouldn’t we be concerned with education and prevention rather than the liberation of abortion? Still, in my country at least things seem to be far beiond that point... (feel free to bash my country, i wont mind)

Also I must say that, personally, i consider abortion a very bad, very wrong thing and i consider it to be murder.

2)How is it not murder? Given the conditions of things in my country is it justifiable? Sincerely speaking I must say It fells kind of a hypocrite being against the legalisation of abortion in a country where illegal home made abortions are the third cause of death amongst wemen (again: “#*&$”).

That alone is enough to give me a monster headache. If you add to that:

Stem cell research (is it diferent, all the fetus used are meant to be discarded, they will never develop anyway)
Bible teachings i believe to be truthfull and very, very important
Cases of rape
... Well my head is about to explode here. Really, shouldn’t all these people know better? Shouldn’t both religion and science be teaching people how to take care of themselves, that sex is a big deal? Should famous celebreties give a better example or something?

Its too late to make a long story short, still to sumerise: What is your opinion on abortion? why?

This question is for ALL RELIGIONS:
Is it actually against your religious to go on dates and kiss before you are married when no sex is involved? PLEASE give scripural references!!!!! Some pastor, imams, and rabbis will tell you it's wrong and will not have scripture to back it up. Also, there ARE cases where people date and kiss and this does not lead to sex.

IF we all came from Adam and Eve then we came from incest.

Not once, but twice.

because when Noah built the Arc and only his family members went on it.

So once again it had to of been incest.

What do you think about this?
and is incest a sin?
