Whats the point in Jesus dying?

This is very hard for me to ask this. Ok Jesus died on the cross to pay for our sins... why? Why would you have to kill yourself to pay for sins? So I'm saying that is their like some higher person that said "Hey if you want their sins to be forgiven (or whatever) I want Jesus to be killed!"
So God sacraficed his son... Why is the reason to do that!? Why would you need to kill someone, is he gaining power from doing that? Does it require alot of power to forgive sins? Gee Wiz! Whats the point in that! If you know what Im getting at. Think about it... You know what Im saying home-sicles. Or maybe I have this whole idea wrong. I admit I do not go to church or read the bible. But today I did because I was forced to. So ya thanks for reading and all that jazz.

Why can't I make friends with white women?

I am asian and notice that all my closest friends are either mexican, asian, black, samoan....anything but white. I know a few women who are white but we're not close. Not trying to be racist but is there some huge cultural gap between whites and all other races? It is amazing I married a caucasian man but can't even befriend a white female. I tried being nice and hospitable to caucasian women when I meet one but it just doesn't seem like there's any connection between us. I don't know why that is...any insite??

Why does rape make you hate ur body/should i go to this Dr?

When this man was holding me down and about to rape me he was rubbing my breasts as if they were fully developed. I was just beginning to go thru puberty and I was only partially showing any growth. After that I hated my breasts and had this fixation that I never wanted to grow up or develop more. It seemed like mature breasts meant you were rape material since he grabbed mine like i was fully developed.( The thought of growing up always sent me into depression.) I secretly felt that and then I went thru this deeply promiscuous time. What the h*** is that all about ? Also, today my regular Dr told me she wants me to see a female psych Dr. for a " pre-emptive PTSD " counsultation. I told her a tiny bit of my feelings and she was alarmed. I told her I didnt think anyone could talk me out of this hole...Should I go and talk or go and just get meds ? Plz pray for me in this decision.

Why do so many people think that the REBEL FLAG stands for racism?

If people really knew their history books they would know that during the Civil War that black people as well as white people fought under that same flag to defend the Confederacy.

Do we look like God?

With all the Biblical references to God's different body parts, and the fact that He made us to look like Him (Genesis 1:26) how can there be any other conclusion?

I hope nobody tries to say something stupid like God was not smart enough to talk to us plainly and had to use metaphors.

What do you think of rappers in general?

I know you know that all rappers don't talk about violence and drugs and women, but why do most people, usually white people, think of them in that way? I certainly don't think all white artists are headbangers who snort powder, so why is it this way for black entertainers?

Can you believe me?

I sketched Jesus with Mary when I was half asleep. I have no faith in any prevailing religion.Only one emotion was working with me and that was of Mother Mary. I had gone to sleep while meditating on the pain and suffering of Mary and shedding tears of love for Her .Suddenly I got up in the middle of night and sketched and wrote.
in the morning when I woke up i could not believe what that I could sketchthe faces and bodies and write what I wrote.I am no painter or a writer.I am nothing in fact.
I not only believe but am sure that Jesus and Mary definitely looked that way.If any one is serious It can be seen and examined.I love the motherhood of this planet earth and believe that SHE KNOWS EVERY one and can reveal every thing . I have a love-bond with HER. mraju69@yahoo.com

Are spelling punctuation and grammar becoming passe?

Will business and academia continue to have standards or will language skills simply fade into oblivion as the next generation brings their TM/IM cell phone mentality into the workplace?
