He hasn't quite gotten over it yet. He's 15, but what's remarkable about him, I think is that although none of his family believe in God, he did somewhat until his father died. He still kind of believes in God but he blames Him for what happened to his father and his faith is worn out completely. He just can't understand why God would let this happen and now he's compelled to just forget about God altogether. I'm only 16.. and I can understand that there is a time for everything and that everything has a place in God's amazing plan.. but he can't see that and I need a way to help him understand why these things happen and why he shouldnt give up hope.

I don't want to give up hope on him because I know I, through God, can help him through thisl. Does anyone know anything at all I can say to him or show him that will help him understand> It would be greatly appreciated.. and please.. I only want serious answers.

The letter Y is like the Tomato of letters. Is it a Vowel or Constanent?

In my opinion it is more a vowel than all the other vowels because it can make the long A sound in Hey and Hay, The long E sound in almost every other word like happy and family, and the long I sound in the word why.

I will award 10 points and the right to brag to whoever can give me the best argument stating that Y is a constenant. If you agree with me, just answer truthfully and take your 2 points. If you really have an argument, state it.

P.S. The argument, Y makes a short y sound in the words yes and yeah dosen't count.

P.S.S. This is just a contest for my own amusment.

P.S.S.S. Micheal Jackson is gay.

Christians and Muslims are both expecting Jesus to come back.

My question is if Jesus did come and came as a Chinese or Indian or French or African.. ie. anything but semitic decent would you believe in him..?
i.e would you doubt he is Jesus if he is a different race..

Be honest.

There is one among us like no other who has stepped foot on this earth, with thirst for meaning of his knowledge as to the beginning of the end.

We muslims never mocked the Prophet Jesus(Peace be upon Him) because He is a Holy Figure for us and we respect Him as we respect our Holy Prophet.But i feel sorry to read the descriptions of most christians who mock Islam and our Holy Prophet Hazrat Muhammd (Peace be upon Him) in all ways.Why don't christians live with their faith and let us live with our faith and respect our Holy Figures as we respect theirs.

If you hear it's to come tomorrow, would you think it was a false prophet, or would you get on your knees and pray?

as the Bible commands and correct them?

Would it count as a sin against them if you did nothing while your brothers and sisters in Christ persisted in a lie from the devil?

Would you be accountable for their souls?

Before you answer "God made them, and they later decided to be gay", well, that just isnt the case - and here is just a small bit of the current research out there that shows people dont just DECIDE to be attracted to the same sex:

The physical body, the spirit, and the soul.

Why then do we allow our fellow believers to state falsely that the Body is merely a shell/receptical of a person, and not part of their essence?

There is not one single matter discussed in the Bible out of the many thousands of issues raised that has been proven true, yet many matters have been proven false.

You don’t really need to be a rocket scientist to deduce with practically 100% certainty that God and the Bible are fake.
