How can someone hold to an opinion if their not sure that it's the truth? The way to see if your "opinions" are factual is to consider who desides whether or not it's factual and/or true. Who decides?

I was in the grocery store today and a woman was in there with her 3 or 4 year old kid. The kid was screaming her head off because the mother wouldn't give her some candy. The mother was just ignoring the kid. When did this become acceptable? Why can't people discipline their children?

So many say that they are spirits and ghosts around us but it is so hard to contact or know about them. It would be interesting If you told me how was your experience.

And dont go off on this little charade that they dont exist, because I honestly believe they do. So dont bore me with that crap. I want to hear from people who know stuff about them. (Obviously the believers). Tell me any stories that maybe your great grandparents once told or stuff you've heard about them. Thank you! The most and best info gets 10 pts.

be in a state of constant prayer, and share God's word with those around them, how can those who tell Christians to save prayer for home and church still claim that they support the right to free practice of religion?

Christians by the very nature of their religion can not check that religion at the door wether at school, work, or in a government office.

I have had alot of people come against me in a church and just this past week I got blamed for alot of junk that went on with a member of the church and their family but I am clear of all accusations. Alot of people have brought my family into this and that is my extended family. I just don't understand what to do. Alot of people don't like me because I am handicap and this certain person is getting alot of people that was once a friend of mine to try and turn against me. I just really need some answers on what I should do? Should I go to the preacher and all the deacons of the church and let them know what is going on?

10 - You vigorously deny the existence of thousands of gods claimed by other religions, but feel outraged when someone denies the existence of yours.

9 - You feel insulted and "dehumanized" when scientists say that people evolved from other life forms, but you have no problem with the Biblical claim that we were created from dirt.

8 - You laugh at polytheists, but you have no problem believing in a Triune God.

7 - Your face turns purple when you hear of the "atrocities" attributed to Allah, but you don't even flinch when hearing about how God/Jehovah slaughtered all the babies of Egypt in "Exodus" and ordered the elimination of entire ethnic groups in "Joshua" including women, children, and trees!

6 - You laugh at Hindu beliefs that deify humans, and Greek claims about gods sleeping with women, but you have no problem believing that the Holy Spirit impregnated Mary, who then gave birth to a man-god who got killed, came back to life and then ascended into the sky.

People keep asking me for rediculous favours and I keep saying yes even though most of the time these favours are very inconvenient for me. I feel bad sometimes for saying no to people, why is that? Does this make me selfless or weak? And what is a way that I can avoid similar situations in the future, because I don't want to be a pushover all my life.

All you have to do is look around, and you'll see a lot of women who have resorted to eating to compensate for their unhappiness, why is that? Isn't that just the opposite of what should do? Ladies...your thoughts..

I am looking to get in contact with some people from Italy to makle friends with and chat with to learn the language, because of family heritage and going to Italy in a couple of years, so would like to become more fluent at the language before I go over and feel this may help, as when you are not speaking to people in your family, you may braorden your spoken vocabulary. Also possibly any Spanish people too, as I am also looking to go there as well.

Ok, I know that Allah means God, and he is who Muslims pray to. But is Allah the same God that Christians pray to? I know that Muslims beleive in Moses and in Jesus, but they also believe in Mohammend. Muslims believe in Mohammend the same way that Christians believe in Jesus right? So if Muslims beleive in Jesus and Moses, then is Allah and God the exact same person/entity? Or is Allah totally seperate, like Buddah is? I am confused.

There was a party at the trailer park club house I live in.

It was a pumpkin patch party and i went to use the bathroom and i normally stand when I pee over the toilet. a Girl walked in when I was doing that and told everyone in the trailer park. Now they all make fun of me.

Has this ever happened to anyone?

I dont think people should judge me based on this. I am a pretty girl and have alot to offer. This shouldnt be an issue
