How many Americans actually know any Canadians to base their opinions on? Ever vacation or spend any time in Canada?

They hate homosexuals. They instill tremendous guilt in their members. They won't let women become priests...etc.

I had a vision and during the vision I saw myself as a woman living in a wooden hut in a stony village and I was singing this song.

(I have written this the way the words sound)

Kuramena nara semo
kuramena nara co
Co co la-nee co co ra-mee
Co co ra-mee co co ru

I am very interested to discover if the words or phrases in this song mean anything to anyone any where in the world.

I dress like a boy because the clothes are more comfortable and look better and have a mohawk. I sit like a guy and have my nails short but only so I can play piano better. I guess I do look like a guy but I don't do it on purpose. I would much rather look like a girl in boys clothes with a mohawk (How do I do that?). But anyway, what kind of lesbian would I be considered? I like all kinds of girls though. I know I shouldn't lable myself, but I just want to know what I would be considered if it ever came up? And, if you don't mind my asking, how do I look more like a girl without changing the comfortable clothes and hairstyle?

If you don't believe in God? Then who do you worship? Yourself? "Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths" Proverbs 3:5-6

When they justify things like war, the death penalty, and self-reliance, they refer to scripture in the Old Testament, but seem unwilling or unable to deal with conflicting scripture in the New Testament.

between thirty and 50 people can list one or all six scriptural references why god hates homosexuality, but when a person askes how Jesus said to save souls, only 8 people answer and few of them even mention jesus?

Does it seem wrong that more christians know about the condemnation of others than how jesus said to win them over?

Am I the only one who notices this?

...expand your understang of the nature of God? Consider Deut. 32 39, "...It is I who put to death and give life. I have wounded and it is I who heal, and there is no one who can deliver from My hand." That humbles me alot. It also makes me ponder why God would wound. Consider, for example, Jacob for whom God wounded in the hip. There is a reason for everything with a God who is all-knowing and all-powerful. In Jer. 29:19 the Lord says, "'For I know the plans that I have for you,' declares the Lord, 'plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope.'" Wounding may even be from God, who desires to give us a future and a hope. Consider Job, who did nothing to derserve his adversity - even his children were killed, yet glorifies God to this day through his suffering. This makes me pause and refine my understanding of God and love. This just is not emphasized enough in church...I believe. What you you think?

They always want to pretend it isn't true, when it is right there in black and white. You can cry until you are blue in the face that they are really talking about rhinos or that it was mistranslated or whatever, but the fact is the bible mentions UNICORNS.

Num 23:22 God brought them out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn.

Num 24:8 God brought him forth out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn: he shall eat up the nations his enemies, and shall break their bones, and pierce [them] through with his arrows.

Job 39:9 Will the unicorn be willing to serve thee, or abide by thy crib?

Job 39:10 Canst thou bind the unicorn with his band in the furrow? or will he harrow the valleys after thee?

Psa 29:6 He maketh them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young unicorn.

Psa 92:10 But my horn shalt thou exalt like [the horn of] an unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil.

So here's my predicament: I am going to be taking a lot of hard classes this year and so a few weeks ago I asked my angels "I really hope I can have a class with this guy I like". He's in AP History and Seminar, but I am in just AP History so we wouldn't have been in the same class. Anyway, last night my guidence counselor called me and told me my schedule was clashing so I couldn't take American sign language: I would either have to take AP History and seminar or take regular AP and a class other than American sign language. My question: should I take AP History and seminar and risk not being in the same class with him (but trust that this could be a sign), or just take a different class, like sociology?

Notice the word: ANOTHER?

John 14:16
And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;


if the comforter is the holyspirit as John has claimed, then why would Jesus call the holyspirit with another different name? ... the comforter is a name of a person who will come to compelete the message of God.

It's really worrisome because I found where he is keeping a chart of my sleep habits and the phases of the moon, and is presently filing his canine teeth into sharp points.

Should I move out or just hang a cross over my bed?

I saw on TV about this group of religious nuts in Philippinos that cruxify themselves on the cross every year to experience the exact treatment Jesus goes through, but none of them died from it.

Infact their wounds all miraculously would heal after they were release from the cross after a few days.

So maybe Jesus ressurection is not such a miracle after all, since ordinary humans today have been attempting the dying for their sins part too, with no problems.

So what makes Jesus dying on the cross so special now compared to the Philipinos who does it every year?
