So how do you know who is who!

Simple, the anti-christ comes first and teaches from a doctrine that is appealling to your heart's desires. This will make him strong extreamly fast and blind you easily

If Jesus is in your heart and you know exactly what Jesus is all about, it will be easy to recognize the anti-christ.

I think maybe all the Pagan questions would be better asked in the Mythology and Folkore section? Maybe the fundies wouldn't harass us as much there?

Why doesn't God Help the people in need? I mean I don't just mean like my family, I mean the people in proverty or in Israel or Lebanon? The people that are slowly dying? And I believe in god but things that are going around makes me really question myself. Is God real? If God is then why doesn't he do something? And no this is not spam so don't 'report me' I am just merely questioning why God doesn't help everyone. And I do believe in all Gods not just from my religion if some people are going to be saying "Oh, that means the God you believe in isn't true." Well that's about it if you have an answer I would love to hear it!

The bible says we should only be with the opposite sex for exact reasons he lays out for us in bible. But if a person gets a sex change operation how do they explain thier walk with the Lord at that point. Saying they believe in God really pushes that point I think. God says we are made in his image and we are like him and he did make the rules. So if we go against what he has laid out for us how can it be right?This question isn't about your right to choose it's simply about the question asked.

Why would god want me to suck up to him while I was alive and then even more after I was dead? Is he that much of an egomaniac that he wants everyone to constantly worship even after they are dead? Don't you ever get a break?

People ask me for proof that God exist, but isn't what happening in the world a living proof of his existence?. Is not a coincidence that was is going on right now is very similar to what is written in the Bible. How can something so well elaborated and the most important piece of our history of civilization be fake? The events, the people, the teachings are too complicated and well done to be fiction and be written at that time.

But hey in biblical times there were also people who didn't believe in him even when they had Jesus present among them, and he did miracles in their presence. Even when he died in the cross people mocked him, so I guess those kind of people will never go away in the world.

But, I will share a little secret with you: Next year around July 2007 something unexpected will happen. Something huge. Also, the Mormon church will grow so big in the next 100 yrs or so. Also, the USA will become practically a mormon nation and will go into battle with Israel and all other nations will join. Just remember these simple words in the back of your mind. One day your will remember this.

I've had a wonderful friendship with a straight guy for 10 years. He's my best friend, but in fact, I fell in love with him a few times in the past, and I've always felt some attraction towards him. He didn't know I was gay until I told him recently. We're very close emotionally and I feel how much he likes me as a friend, the way he looks and smiles at me, talks to me, hugs me etc. For me it's OK if it stays like this between us, as I wouldn't like to have sex with him (even though I have sexual phantasies about him) and I'm not bothered at all by his girlfriends: I feel in a purely Platonic way about him. He's the only one I've told that I'm gay, not because I hoped he was as well but just to be sincere with him, and he was very positive about it and said it didn't change anything between us, which made me feel happy. I haven't had a gay relationship yet, and I'm afraid that I might like him less if I have a lover, and that would hurt him deeply.Do you think this friendship can work?

I'm bisexual,and I can see a woman in a bikini,whatever,and I don't go gaga over it,but men do.( I mean,I DO find women attractive,but in those instances,feels more pervy to me.)If they get a peek up a skirt,they loose their minds. Am I the only bi woman who doesn't find scantily clad women attractive? I find it more trashy,and unless they are on the beach or something,feel like it's inappropriate most times in public. I'd rather see a woman dressed in something nice,rather than trashy,maybe my standards are too high,lol. What do the bi women,and the straight guys think about this?

If you can't tell by the pic, I'm a proud muslim. Every Sunday, I would go and pray in my mosque along with all my other muslim brothers. There's a big issue though. There's a cocasion old man who happens to live right next to the mosque, who would randomly wait every friday to 'diss'' and throw shotty remarks targeting us. Everyone else chooses to ignore it, but I feel like it has gone far enough, any one got advice for this? p.o.v's from all cultures would be appreciated. thanks

When someone is referring to your race (not speaking of you individually) how do you prefer they refer to you...black or African American? I really don't see what the big deal is about the whole black/AA issue. I'm caucasian...most people refer to me as white. I'm not white...I'm more of a creamy pink color, to be honest. Much the same as you aren't black...you may be light tan, or you may be very dark brown.

You don't know me...you don't know that my ancestors are from German, England and Scotland, and I certainly don't expect you to refer to me as German/English/Scots American. I don't know you...for all I know, your ancestors could be from Jamaica or Trinidad, so why should I be expected to refer to you as African American? Isn't it just easier and less confusing to say black and white? White people don't get offended when we're called white, so why do so many black people get offended when called black? Serious answers only please! I'm not trying to start an argument.
