All I want to do is meet a guy who is nice, attractive, young, and not looking for a hookup, and is not seeking a guy who is just attractive arm-candy. (I mean, I know I'm not Brad Pitt, but I'm not completely unattractive, and I have a lot to offer in terms of intellect, kindness, and stability...)

Does anyone think that the Bible should be updated to modern times? Although it does outline many of the pivotal ideas of our society (ie not stealing, not killing others, etc), it also condones slavery, the degradation of women, and the wrongness of homosexuality. So should it be updated to fit modern times or not? And if so, what should change?

Ok.. I work like this.. All philosopy.. Philo(lating for the love of) Osophy(knowledge) Therefore Philosophy = knowledge. Not just any knowledge.. EMPIRICAL knowledge. That which is SELF EVIDENT. Don't bother answering this question with a you must believe crap. Add up all the facts and it is self evident that GOD exists!!! But how do you add up facts to find Jesus was who everyone thinks he was? Where's the EMPIRICAL knowledge in this. BIBLE? Don't bother... could have been written by anyone... I would LIKE to have a REAL FACTUAL answer.. Thank you all who respond to this with REAL answers...

I do most of the time, even without makeup, but I think it's mostly because I feel good about who I am. I think of celebrities who are attractive because of their personalities but if you just look at their features they don't exactly have the wow factor with them. But overall, I believe we are all created beautiful, it's just the bad living and bad attitudes that cause unattractiveness.

A preacher was completing a temperance sermon: with great expression he said, "If I had all the beer in the world, I'd take it and throwit into the river."

With even greater emphasis he said, "And if I had all the wine in theworld, I'd take it and throw it into the river."

And then finally, he said, "And if I had all the whiskey in the
world, I'd take it and throw it into the river." He sat down.

The song leader then stood very cautiously and announced with a
smile, "For our closing song, let us sing Hymn # 365:

"Shall We Gather at the River."

I think not. Information rich systems are developed by intelligence. God created heaven and earth. What is funny is that people are telling you what happened millions of years ago (evolution) and you buy into it! People forget what happened in the year 3 A.D. on June 23rd, much less millions of years ago. Peace! Have an awesome weekend everyone!

I think alot of straight people post questions on here seemingly dumb becasue it seems like your relationships would work out alot easier than ours. We all know women and men are fundamentally different. My friends parents have been married for 25 years and they still don't get why the opposite does what they do, they just accept it. With a gay couple it's like one of the fellas right, of course two guys are going to get along it's not hard to pick up on subtle hints or irratation because youre a guy or a girl in that situation. But heteros in relationships can easily get on two different planets and have major communication break downs. It seems like that just would't happen in a gay relationship becasue your the same sex same state of mind your on the same planet, you speak the same language. It took me years to learn how to be friends with a girl you can't treat them the way you treat guy friends. A relationship was a whole different ball game it takes even more learning.

In the real world and on this site, I hear a lot of people complaining about being treated different because they're gay. I think that if you are gay, that is your right. But, walking like a girl, talking like a girl, and acting like a girl is not natural. It is different and I don't have a problem with people treating gays that act like that different. You have the right to be gay, I believe that, but if you want to act more feminine then my sisters, I have a right to make jokes about you. If you are born a male, why pretend to be a female? It is an invitation for ridicule. And if you are gay and don't act like that, do you feel like the ones that do, which is the majority, give you a bad name?

I hear people often say "He crammed the bible down my throught" or "beat me over the head with the Bible." Obviously this is a figure of speech. I'm interested in comments about this phrase and how people think it came in to being.

The son of a friend died and I believe he is still here trying to communicate with us and to protect us. I believe once he knows we are ok he can pass over and rest. I believe he is sending me signs.

Christians have to be socially conservative and fight for a culture of life, that is against abortion, Euthanasia, embryonic stem-cell research, death penalty, In-vitro fertilization, divorce, unjust wars and other life issues.
Christians have to be liberal in economics and fight for social justice, the poor, the enviroment, healthcare, living wage for families, government aid for families, fair global market. oportunity for all people to work.
