We are looking for a reasonably priced and quiet center that can provide a meeting room for about 12 Christian women, food, beds with linens, etc. for Friday evening to Sunday afternoon, preferrably Nov. 10-12, 2006. [Another Nov. weekend is possible.] The women will come from Texas and New Mexico, mostly by air at DFW and/or Love Field. Some will drive.

It bugs me when this woman at my work clears her throat 50 times a day.
It bugs me when people just "have" to touch me when they first see me.
It bugs me when people don't use their damn turn signals (USE YOUR TURN SIGNALS PEOPLE!)

It bugs me when my neighbors complain about my dogs, when they have 6 friggin kids!

Ahhh. that feels better!

A youth pastor told me not too long ago that belief in the christian messiah was the only way to pardise after death. after some thought, i asked about native peoples in africa, or in rainforests, basicly anywhere where people havent been "witnessed to".
he told me, with the same soft voice he used to preach," the bible says that, through creation,man should know god exists." This shocked me. People still believe that drinking cow's blood will bring rain, becuase THEY DONT KNOW ANY BETTER, god will still send them to eternal pain? Wouldnt these people, never hearing of jesus being the only way to heaven, have the same (for lack of a better term) excuse as children, with the age of accountability? can anyone offer some insight on this? thank you.

My neighbor is on probation and last night he was very drunk and started shooting his 9mm in the air at our apartment complex. I didn't call the police until this afternoon. They said that they would look into it! I don't know how he will react to police! He might go back to jail! I am not a rat or anything but I have a child and if some retard is gonna fire bullets into the air while he is drunk, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that it isn't safe. I don't want me or anyone in my family to ever get "accidentally" shot. If it were you would you kill me or threaten me or something? I'm not scared yet! I haven't seen him since I called the police, I'm just a little nervous. What do you think I should do? Just wait?

Have no other god but me.
Christians think that Isa (Jesus) ws. is god. May Allah SWT forgive
them and show them clear signs of Allah SWT truth. There is no other
god but Allah SWT.

Make no one or thing as an idol.
Judaism made the calf into an idol. Make no idol!

Do not use my name in vein.
Muslims blow themselves and innocent people up in the name of Allah
SWT. Do not use my name is vein!


Remember the Sabbath, and keep it holy.
It was Saturday but we failed. It was Sunday but we failed. Now that
it is Friday we are failing.

Do you not see where you and I are going? All you have to look at is
this to see that we ALL are in error and when you barter error for
guidance you are in error.

What does everybody think about this statement?
No insulting, no badgering, and just be nice and peacefull with an honest opinion.

ive used peter pan as a comparison to god and the bible for a long time, usually in a 1 on 1 or me vs an entire chatroom debate. now im asking yahoo answers.

you christians seem to enjoy claiming that the bible is evidene of gods existence. i, in response, would like to announe that the book "Peter Pan" is evidence of peter pans existence. if i am wrong in some way please respond HOW i am wrong. and remember, if i am wrong in any way then logically you, the christian who claims that the bible is evidence for gods existence, are also wrong.

both claims are equal.
both claims claim that a books existence proves the characters within the book are real.

prove me wrong and you prove yourself wrong.

your move.

If the U.S. is so blessed by God, why did he put the oil underneath the people who hate us?

I have not the slightest idea, but this is how it sounds (incorrect spelling..I am sure.). I don't know tagalog, but a co-worker asked what it could possibly mean...

"ma bu bu king" and "Babangitin"

Anyway..thanks for any information....

Christians assume that atheists think like them. We wont take the first thing we dont understand and say "God did it". We figure out what the REAL problem is. So, by you saying you will pray for us is just like saying you will talk to yourself

they dont really let you know much about them, and when you buy something from them and maybe try to make coversation they act all weird, I dont meen to sound racial, but it finally got to me in my own expiriance 8 out of 10 are like that. Or they act as if they have no idea what you said but they turn and laugh at you and talk in their own language, and you know its about you! why!!????
