the virgin birth story tells me that jesus was an orphan or an unwanted child. The biblical writers used a tradition known as MIDRASH to interpret the meaning of these stories.
i am an orphan myself, and now i find pride in my orphan status because jesus himself was an orphan like me.
if God could have chosen an orphan child such as jesus to be the saviour of the human race, then i consider my orphan status to be a honor.
what do you think?

No one seems to be able to answer this question without leaving me on a cliffhanger.... I've pondered this question day and night intermittently for years. I don't want answers from non-believers.

The bible is touted to be the source of morality, but as I understand it the moral is be nice or you'll go to hell. As an atheist I'm nice to people because I don't want to upset them.
Therefore, are 'Christian morals' good morals as they are concerned with the self and not the recipient?
Discuss.

These do-gooders interfering with our customs & traditions. AGAIN!!!!
Oh! you can't worship that God, or have that saint because I or someone else might be offended as he's apparently too violent!! What a load of c**p!! Leave our traditions alone. Political correctness gone completley insane. Do these people have nothing better to do? If you don't like our traditions, or laws. Then you don't have to live here. You have a choice. I happen to like living here & am prepared to live & let live. I object to being dictated to by people so far up their own a**e they're invisible!!

Or someone that can give me a website that is free that will really break my dream down and analyze it for me cause i have had two of the same similar dreams back to back, one night after another. In both of them my boyfriend is dying. In the first one I stabbed him cause he was supposedly bad and in the 2nd one, it was a car crash that was my fault. I love my boyfriend more than anything in this world and I would never want him dead, let kill him. There are more to these dreams but it would be too much detail but just from that small description of the dreams. what do they mean and why am i having them? I heard that when you dream of death, it doesn't necessarily mean death, it means something else. is that true? and if so, what does that mean?

it says to be envious is a sin and the dictionary defines envy as jealousy then when god says he is a jealous god does that not make god a sinner?

Is it because in the west, you've reached the age where it's ok to have sex? I thought sex would include the word 'salty' and not 'sweet' (excluding erotic foods ofcourse)
Sweet because of climaxing? I thought that would feel uncomfortable and at the same time good. How is that sweet?...
Ok if its about driving, then again how could it relate to 'sweet'? So really, why the 'sweet'? Enlighten me people.
