I've heard many people remark that they find the Bible confusing and hard to understand.

Is there anything specific (actual reference, please) - within the Bible that you do not understand "at all"??

I'm seriously asking this question. What references in the Bible (i want you to literally name them) which lead you to believe in this?

I'm not Catholic, and I honestly want to know why Catholics believe in purgatory.

My mom is so paranoid that she believes vegetables are ridden with bugs, germs and dirt, so she has never bought any for our household. Her paranoia must be wearing off on me, because I am convinced she does not want my frail, fourteen year old body to appropriately develop as normally as any other child my age. Perhaps she has letting-go issues, but I cannot innocently sit by while she deliberately tries to cause me to experience the ill effects of malnourishment. Despite her intense efforts to stunt my growth, I have, in fact, been indulging in vegetables. For the past week, I've taken the toothpicks that she bought for clearing the crevices between our teeth of fatty porkchop bits and used them in order to dig out the kernals of corn embedded in my own feces in an act of rebellion. They are, surprisingly, delicious. I wish I could do more, but since I am a mere fourteen years of age I cannot get a job to provide sustenance for myself.

Some people only know of one or two sources of prophecy, but there are many more then that to consider.

There appears to be a conjunction of prophecies from several sources that imply things to happen within the next 6 to 15 years.

I was reading Nostradamous where he tells of 7 Angels comming to earth in a comet ... I associated that with the last NASA Shuttle Desaster.

Meteors, 2012 - 2016 (From The Bible Code.)

Animal rebellion: Elephants, Bears, Mountain Lions, Allegators have all been attacking human targets (Mayan Prophecies)

Climate Change: Global Warming (All Sources)

Wars and Rumors of Wars, (Bible)

Economic Issues. (Bible)

Natural Desasters, and so on. (All sources)

I know a lot of people who are religious and go to church and yet they don't live by the teachings of whatever church they belong to. They treat people terrbily, spread rumors, and are prejudiced against those who don't have they same beliefs as they do. And yet there are some people who don't go to church and declare themselves atheists but are kind and respectful to other people.

Have you looked up the word Gentiles? Gentiles

whence Eng., "heathen," denotes, firstly, "a multitude or company;" then, "a multitude of people of the same nature or genus, a nation, people;" it is used in the singular, of the Jews, e.g., Luk_7:5; Luk_23:2; Joh_11:48, Joh_11:50-52; in the plural, of nations (Heb., goiim) other than Israel, e.g., Mat_4:15; Rom_3:29; Rom_11:11; Rom_15:10; Gal_2:8; occasionally it is used of gentile converts in distinction from Jews, e.g., Rom_11:13; Rom_16:4; Gal_2:12, Gal_2:14; Eph_3:1.


originally denoted the early descendants of Thessalian Hellas; then, Greeks as opposed to barbarians, Rom_1:14. It became applied to such Gentiles as spoke the Greek language, e.g., Gal_2:3; Gal_3:28. Since that was the common medium of intercourse in the Roman Empire, Greek and Gentile became more or less interchangeable terms. For this term the RV always adheres to the word "Greeks," e.g., Joh_7:35; Rom_2:9-10; Rom_

We currently live in a society that feels we can sue anyone anywhere anytime. I just saw on the news today that KFC is being sued for unhealthy fat. Hello!!! It's a fast food joint. What did you expect when ordering FRIED chicken? Were you forced to order at gunpoint? Then how can you justify suing KFC for a decision YOU made. We have pages and pages of "Do nots" in every manual of every new product. Why? Because some idiot put their ladder in a pile of manure on a hot day and the ladder fell over, breaking his leg. The man sues and wins, because there wasn't a warning label. How stupid have we become that we can't think for ourselves?

How can you not believe? Where do you think you came from? Who do you believe created you? I mean your life has to be so empty without Jesus Christ. I cannot imagine a life without prayer or without a God to worship..... I mean there almost has to be a void in your lives.....
