Is it possible he was not as pure and innocent as you would like to believe? Maybe he acted like a normal boy growing up and fooled around with girls, and drank "wine"?

yet I am NOT WELL-read in the Bible. I read bits and pieces and heard readings in church. I am pretty "regular" as opposed to everything revolving around the Bible. I do respect it yet I find us saying "an eye for an eye" and knowing the Bible says we should not judge others, etc., etc. I don't know why I'm going on about this-I guess it is because I know the people here VERY knowledgeable about the Bible may question me and I'm answering before that happens. MY QUESTION IS - WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE BIBLE VERSE that gives you PEACE in your soul? And PLEASE tell me where in the Bible to find the words you use. Yes, you may quote - that is what I want but I want to also research it myself. THANK YOU. (yes, am searching for my own soul and that's a good thing).

I am not trying to be racist, I am white, and not trying to be sexist, I am a man, I think my 15 year old girlfriend is pregnant but we do not know how it happened but I think Bush is to blame, because he is letting in all those illegal immigrants that take our jobs. The whole thing makes me want to kill myself, do you know of an easy way to do it? Do you think there is really a hell, because I do not want to end ther? and if there is How can we save our environment and how can we make hell history? By the way, do you think my avatar is cute? if you do, call me. Does anybody know jessy? she answered one of my questions, my homework 54X4/yxz>5 question, before and I am trying to find her.

Now give me my 10 points!

Did I miss a question?

Why do Christians think thier religion is the "One Trure" religion? If that were the case would we not have been believing it since the dawn of time? And what happend to our free will? Can we no longer freely believe as we choose in this country?

On a side note I am Christian who converted to Paganism so my fellow Pagans feel free to chime in with your opinons too. Same goes for eveyone, let me know what you think my ears are open. *tilts ear towards crowd*

i am planning on converting to Judaism in the next year but i am an artist at heart and i am still infatuated with tattoos and the process of creating a permanent masterpiece. it's nothing that would stop me from converting because that's priority #1 in my life, so does anyone have suggestions on how to channel that artistic energy into something else that isn't going to be against my religion? i love to draw and display my art.....how to go about it?

p.s. - if anyone hassomething nasty to say about this religion, you can take your hate and ignorance elsewhere because i will not respond and you will get reported. this is 2006, open your mind.

And why don't they just accept that Giggles loves everyone and never said being gay was a sin or making gay love is a sin.In fact the only sins he mentions is hate and doing injustices and hurting others as a sin.

Odd views against gays:
Gays get diseases
(So do straights)
Gays are sinners
(Only in your view.But then everything is a sin according to your views)
Gays are gross
(How would you know unless you did something gross first)
Gays are girly
(Don't know many gays do you?)
It is not natural
(Neither are genetic abnormalities)

Until you actually are gay then there really isn't any reason for your hate of them AND/OR what they do.Right?So you can live with this hate but that hate is hate no matter how you spin it.Embrace love and stop the senseless religious zealotry!Please?

Why do modern conservatives use Christ to spread hatred?
Why has God let them destroyed the values of eteranl forgiveness and love, to replace them with bigotry and hypocrisy? Why does the love of Christ not supercede all things?

WTF happened to "Love thy neighbor as thyself"?

I see so many questions from people asking, "why do americans...?" and fill in the blank with anything bad.

Why are you so obsessed with us and why do you feel the need to denigrate us? Explain that .

If Universalists would stop at "belief in God and living rightly" as their preaching/doctrine, would you be a Universalist?

While playing "Civilation" my son asked the above question. I have noted English, Spanish-Speaking, Asian and Arabic on notices or correspondance received. I cannot find the answer quickly.

Living in Texas Southern Coastal, I've met many Vietnamese, my physian(s) are Indian so I thought perhaps Texas may have a number due to occupation, schooling, specific visa permits and so forth.
