Society & Culture - 21 July 2006

Since I had 50 some odd christians tell me today that the American soldiers aren't actually murdering the Iraqis, they are only 'killing' them and Jesus approves since these soldiers are just following the orders of the state that he tells them to obey, does this make him smile?

Just for the record, what I learned from christians today was:

1) It isn't murder if god tells you to take a life.
2) It isn't murder if the state tells you to take a life.
3) 'Killing' isn't the same as 'murder'. Taking a life for no good reason = bad. Taking a life for an ideal = justified.

I hope this taught you something about god's love.

There is a theory going around that God, in the first testament disagreed with his son in heaven, jesus, on how to handle justice and punishment on Earth. Apparently, God wanted to be a hardliner, and jesus wanted to convince humans through the power of love.

The anti-christ, could be God, which teases the humans, to find his "true" followers, and seperate them...

Apparently, a very recently drawing has been found, linked to the bible in an archealogical dig which represents a repressed society sorounded by high walls in the dessert, and the "true" followers of jesus outside on the barren plains of the desert.

The drawing was connected to revelations, and has been stipulated that the repressed society is a totalitarian one representing how evil requires control, evil is kept in check by evil, and those that are good, can rome free, for there is nothing to fear from good....

maybe those that live in totalitrian place are those chosen to be bad by god,and those left tojesus

Please tell me the best book that you studied in a high school English class, and why you liked that book. What struck you the most about the book? Would you read (or have you read) the book again?

Well, I was just looking at myself in the mirror and I saw the most astonishing thing--a regular person!! Which prompted me to think....What do skinny people really think about overweight people? Do they look at them like they are freaks or something? And what about the ones that are a little "heavy", what do they think about people that are skinny, especailly the ones with the "perfect" body?

Be honest.

that if you did not believe in him you were going to hell?

I know that Jesus has "said" that you must follow him to go to heaven, but can someone quote from scripture (where Jesus was speaking) that you were going to hell if you didn't?

I understand that the crouch is considered a dirty place in western culture in my opinion becuse of the fact that we deficat and urinate threw the same place me also create life but why is that such a bad thing? I remeber a story about a treacher who went to India to teach english. One day she stood upone a chair in the class to reach something and the students were appauld at this act because the feet are a discuting thing to them. But we don't thing that as much. I know it's cultureal. please don't quote bible vers. its's not necerssry. Thanks.

Like temper flare-ups, inordinate celebration of the human form (so to speak), frustration, pride, depression, drugs, sex, smoking, and anything else that doesn't glorify God but is still tempting? How does one break free? What steps should one take?

Since the best evidence that racism is a learned behavior, all you have to do is watch small children interact with each other. Not until they become older do they recognise differences in skin color. So how is racism overcome?
