If you knew that GOD was going to be at your house in 5 minutes, would you change the things you do and say? like turn the television to the church channel? throw your beer bottle away? not cuss as much?

To start you off: No Electricity Day, where you go a whole day without using electricity. Silence Day (self-explanatory. Actually, so was that first one). Obsolecence Day, where we celebrate outmoded technology - giant phones, record players, the chunky retangular beauty of a videotape...

There is no meaning, purpose, or reason to suffering.
Everything is a random, meaningless accident
There is no ultimate justice. Hitler gets the same as the nice, selfless person.
There is no good or bad, evil or righteous just presonal preferences.

i've heard of the phrase 'What goes around, comes around' but, when does this happen, do we get to know about it !

Don't people realize that it's a troll looking for attention and that when you say you've reported them or that you act shocked, it's EXACTLY what keeps them coming back? They have tons of yahoo ids... Maybe we respond because we're making ourselves feel good by showing the world and ourselves how principled we are? Dunno but ... if the fish don't bite, the fishermen will stop putting in the bait.

I have a lil sis in high school she plays soccer and she over heard a few of the gay gals talking about how one of her teamates look undressed. Now my sis and a few of her friends won't shower or change in front of these girls.

Some one told me that straight people need to get used to it and deal with it. Is that how you feel? If so, I think Gay people should have thier own locker room, go check each other out. Granted the locker room isn't the best place to look at people, but still my sister shouldn't have to feel that way, if she tells then she gets segragted and has to change elsewhere and she shouldn't have to she did nothing wrong. Whereas those girls did. They shouldn't be peeping Toms.

I'm doing my best not to come off as an A**hole on this question because that sh** is wrong. Thats how people get thier a.s.s Kicked in my openny.

Ok, everything aside, why can't we all just not judge anyone because of race, religion, sexual orientation, etc.... and just accept people for who they are??? I will respect ANYONE regardless of their religion, race, color, sexual orientation, etc..., as long as they respect me too. Why can't the whole world be this way, there is no reason for the hate.. I'm just soooo sick of people hating other people. As the old question goes--Why can't we all just get along?? I know people have different views than others, but there is absolutely no good reason for hate!!!

We pray to god everyday for lives, our needs and sins. We got everything in desire but there is not one time we stop and thank him.

Athiests spend such a great amount of energy & are so intense in their denial of the existence if God.... that they betray the fact that they are convinced of His existence...they just wished He didn't exist, because He makes them feel uncomfortable.....

Think about it......

If they really thought He didn't exist, they wouldn't sweat it....

This concerns older men in relationships with younger females. Obviously as an older male I'd like to think there is some truth in it. It goes as follows take your age (for example 50) divide by 2 (25), add 7 (32).
I'm neither trying to depress older women nor fill those younger with horror but if the formula is right can I smile now?

can you tell me if there is an arab expression to say go with God or God be with you in arab.
I am of course familiar with the expression Salaam Aleikum which means may the peace of God be with you but I am looking for something more exact!!!

Because the first amenment clearly states "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;". So, no laws can ever made that have to do with religion. So for example, Gay marriage, don't like it because of your religion? This means that the government doesn't care. You think they should allow more Christian values into government? Then you think your religion is better than anybody else's and you're a bigot. And if you think they should enforce laws based on your own religion then I guess on top of being a bigot you're also a fascist. So my question is how do you justify this without bigotry and how does it feel to be fascist? (Not generalizing, many religious people are worthy of anyone's respect and are not bigots or fascist at all).

PS
Morals have nothing to do with religion. Religion is a synthetic thing and is made to enforce the morals we have as human nature.

In my opinion, this whole damn world has gone mad. Everyday people find new ways of killing each other and blowing themselves up. The whole world is crazy. How else do you explain the current state of affairs in the world today? Everyone has completly lost it, I don't think it's just me.

Fear not, little flock, for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom. SELL ALL YOUR POSSESSIONS, AND GIVE ALMS; provide yourselves with purses that do not grow old, with a treasure in the heavens that does not fail, where no thief approaches and no moth destroys. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

Here Jesus says that you should sell all your posesions and let god provide for you.

Why don't you do this?
Jesus has told you to, so why dont you?

If you really had faith you would do this, why do you doubt?

How little faith you have!

The Bible says that there is no one who is Good. The only one Good is God. When we die God will judge us by His moral laws. If we stand guilty before God, we will end up in Hell. Jesus Christ died on a cross and rose again to pay the debt for Everyones sins. To take part in His free gift a Salvation is to Repent, which means to ask for forgiveness, turn away from your sins, and put your complete Trust in Jesus Christ. This is the only way to be Saved and Accepted by God into Heaven for an Eternity. The alternative is an Eternity of Punishment in Hell.
