I was at Walmart shopping with my daughter (age 4). A black woman was there with her kids and somehow the little ones got to playing with each other. I was leaving to check out so I told her to come along. She wasn't ready to go yet, so she yelled out "No, dad, I want to play with the monkey!" Needless to say I was mortified and immediately apologized. The woman laughed it off (thank god), but how do I explain racism to my daughter? Has this happened to any of you?

During my last year of college,I had a sexual relationship with this guy.It didn't end all too well because he claimed that he thought I was me who had been prank calling his phone.Anyhow, after he did accuse me of that we still continued to sleep with each other, I called him, he called me, there was no problem until suddenly I text message him about something I left at his house and he tells me to not call him anymore and threatens to tell people we mutually know about our relationship. And that he will put a restraning order against me and that He said he would'put my business out in the street" so the next day I get a call from one of his close friends whom never calls me inviting me to his event.This particular friend happens to be his best friend and who happens to be one of the members of the club I tried to join)so she invites me to his event, but I didn't go, and so everytime I see her school she ignored me, he ignores me, I'm feeling bad, feeling like I did something wrong

I try to reach out to her to wish her happy birthday, and congratulations on her performance at a school event ad I get ignored, I see him at school he ignores me, then I see him again and he smiles and calls me over so we can talk, but I tell him I have to go to class, but wish him luck.The other members of the club speak to me , another member even gave me a hug, so i guess my question would be should I still try to join the club even though my reputation might have been ruined by me having a relationship with him

I just can't understand why “Christians" ignore the Old Testament law and say "Jesus died for our sins, so the Old Testament law doesn't apply to us” Then when it comes to things like Gays and Witches they use the Old Testament laws to condemn.

JESUS taught us to love one another! He also taught us not to Judge others!
Can you find me a scripture where JESUS himself condemns Gays and Witches? Not the words of one of his disciples or a man who was a tax collector and was blinded but the words of JESUS!

I have had my 98 Chrysler T&C for 6 months now, and have gone through 3 sets of tires on the front end due to excessive wear on the inside and outside shoulders of the tires. This is the first vehicle that I've owned that has traction control. Could it be I'm not used to traction control, or that I'm too used to driving little cars and not big vans? Or could it actually be a REAL problem with something on my van, because it does pull to the left but I have never really paid attention until now (steel showing on inside of tires, and a nail in one that I don't want to take out for fear of a flat).

Hey, I have been thinking alot about the concept of evil lately, and I have some questions to ask! :)
1. What exactly is evil? Can can we define it?
2. How can we judge evil? - Perceptions etc
3.The origions of evil - is it orgional sin?
4. Christianity and Evil. Is evil somewhat the basis of christianity?
5.Free will and evil- is it because of free will that evil exists?
and my final one, which I am most interested in - Why evil isnt nessescarly such a bad thing.

If anyone has any links that they could share with me, or any theologist sites that I can read up on, it would be great! Thank you! :)
