Society & Culture - 16 July 2006

Now this isnt a question on wether or not there is a God. That I can handle. I just find hard to believe that people have an issue with God judging sinners. Like it is unheard of to be punished for wrong doing. I look at some of the answers for questions that pertain to the reality of God and see that most of them are well thought out. Wether the answer is from a Atheist, Christian, or another belief, but than you have those few people that rant on about how unfair it is for God to place judgement on someone. I just want to know why people cant except that, if God is real, there will be a day you have to account for your wrong behaviour. Can someone help me with this?

My girlfriend is in the hospital with a bleeding ulcer. I'm so worried about her. How can I deal with this? I'm afraid she'll have to have surgery. I want to go see her. But her parents don't like us being lesbian lovers. What do I do?

Yes, I can be cynical, I raise my doubts, and aim for loopholes in logic as I see em. But, I enjoy reading / hearing what everone has to say whether they're shooting my errors or just plain shining some true inspirations.

So, let's have it! Share!

I went to buy a box of cereal from wal mart today and this lesbian tried to take it out of my cart. I didnt know she was a woman and i decked her in the face on accident a few times. Now she is trying to sue me and if i had known she was a woman i would have only slapped her because i know you arent supposed to hit a woman like a man. what should i do?

Six Criteria for Hijab in Islam
Deuteronomy 22:5
I Timothy 2:9 e.g. of Mary
I Corinthians 11:5-6

Islam uplifted women and gave them equality and expects them to maintain their status.


Islam uplifted the status of women and granted them their just rights 1400 years ago. Islam expects women to maintain their status.


Hijaab for men

People usually only discuss ‘hijaab’ in the context of women. However, in the Glorious Qur’an, Allah (swt) first mentions ‘hijaab’ for men before ‘hijaab’ for the women. The Qur’an mentions in Surah Noor:

"Say to the believing men that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty: that will make for greater purity for them: and Allah is well acquainted with all that they do."
[Al-Qur’an 24:30]

You dont think about questioning this

angels blowing trumpets in the sky
talking donkeys
sticks turning into snakes
wizzards
Jesus getting beat just so you can get to heaven after murdering

But you have the nerve to question evolution?

Why people fight with each other in the names of country, religion etc? It's really sad to see several bomb blasts, border wars and even internal clash (with-in a country) among different religion/caste. Why dont we have a peaceful world?

In Japan, they say the younger generation people don't use proper Japanese. They even say it's worse year by year. I don't know it's bad or just changing. How about in your country? If so, why do you think it's happening? Is it bad or good?

..... programs, rewards and punishments as maybe required? … I mean, do people who barely make it to Heaven by the skin of their teeth get the same wonderful treatment as say Mother Teresa’s of this world? How about those who have truly committed evil deeds vs. those who didn't quite make it to Heaven - do they all get the same nasty treatment in Hell? Or are there degrees of niceties and punishments and hence separate class-societies in Heaven and Hell?


P.S. I am merely asking a question – not trying to argue against anyone’s faith or lack thereof, as maybe the case.

Is the drive:
The desire for success?

The fear of failure?

I dont know if these exist in USA but in the UK these places are to house ex offenders released into the community from prison.
Maybe they are a good idea, as long as the house is not next door to yours? Have you any experience of living near to one of these places, good or bad??
