I got a simple question to all you sinners out there.......Why should I pay for the sin that Adam and Eve comitted????? 1st of al,l I was not the one who got the fruit from the tree. 2nd of all ,I didn't even know them ....(I don't care if they were my ancestors) and last but not least if God already knows everything that's going to happen..why would he put Adam and Eve near the tree in the first place when he knew that devil was going to be there???..If it wasn't for this event I would be in perfect paradise..so when i see Adam I'm going to have to kick his *** and as for Eve im going to slap her for convinving Adam to do it... thanks..have a good day

When I was a section leader I had Jews, Mormans, Christians, Atheists all doing their jobs together like brothers. When I became the Plt Sgt I promoted my Christian layperson to my old position. He began removing everyone that was not Christian from his section. This put people in leadership positions that were not ready for the responsibility. I confronted him about it. He told me, "I don't belive they will have my back like my Christian brothers." I asked him about all the times he relied on me and even how I had saved his life. He answered with, "But your diffrent." He never gave a good reason why I am diffrent. I have put his section back how I think it should be.

What justification could he have for segrigating his section?

If he had a good argument I would let him run his section however he saw fit. Otherwise I see it as him setting himself up for failure.

For example, when French (particularly) or Italian speakers attempt to speak English, in popular English-speaking culture this is regarded as a 'sexy' or 'romantic' accent. In contrast, some say that German speakers or speakers of Asian languages sound a bit unpleasant and harsh when speaking English.

In Chinese popular culture, how are foreign accents regarded?
Tibetans(西藏人), Uyghur (维吾尔), Mongolian (蒙古人), English/American, French, Japanese, Vietnamese (越南人).

Do they sound "awful", cute, annoying, stupid, sexy or just different?

In popular Chinese culture, which foreigners have the most highly regarded accent? Or do all foreign accents just sound bad?

Well, by looking at the Zapruder Film, looking at the trjectories, and counting the objects struck that day, I came up with this.

Conclusion: 10-14 shots were fired that day by 7-11 snipers firing from different directions simotainiously. Most of the snipers had "silenced" automatic rifles.

The number of shots and the timing of the shots are known now by looking at the Zapruder Film. 4 years of research.

My Theory:
Frame 155-Shot 1: Hit the Main St. curb(Dal-Tex Building)
Frame 186-Shot 2: Windshield/Kennedy's throat(South Knoll)
Frame 223-Shot 3: Gov. Connally in the back(TSBD)
Frame 226-Shot 4: Kennedy in the back(Dal-Tex Building)
Frame 285-Shot 5: manhole cover on Elm St.(Records Building)
Frame 312-Shot 6: JFK Headshot #1(TSBD)
Frame 313-Shot 7: JFK Headshot #2(North Knoll, "James Files")
Frame 314-Shot 8: JFK Headshot #3(North Knoll, "Badge Man")
Frame 320-Shot 9: Limo's windshield chrome(Dal-Tex Building)
Frame 323-Shot 10: Connally's wrist(TSBD)

why is it your duty to try and "save" me? why is your way of living and thinking superior to mine? am i not an equal human being to you? what makes you think i should give you any consideration at all? aren't you being a little arrogant? why can't you respect others and their way of life? wave to jesus till your arm falls off i don't care. why can't you people mind your own business. don't answer with any bible verses either. it's a copout. use your own words not someone elses.

Men never say that when looking for a woman. What does it tell "us" (society) about woman. I thought woman were trying to break away from dependency on a man.

I think that babies are so adorable. Everytime I see one I want to cuddle it ... especially the fat babies. They make my heart turn to mush. They're the only ones left in this world that are still innocent and pure.

There's been no crime reported in my street in the 3 years I've been living here: pretty odd if they are all sinners.

It is a morning prayer:

The morning sun has risen now
Can let us turn to God in prayer
And beg him shield our soul from harm
Each hour, each moment, everywhere
Thus when nightfall come
God grant us still perserving in his grace
May sing his praises worthily.

Do you balance powerful emotive forces of sorrow, fear and anger produced by discovery of truth about the fractal infernal temporal nature of self and world with powerful emotive forces of joy, faith and love produced by myths about the divine eternal nature of self and world?

Frankly, I love reading the bible. I also read other religious works. When it comes to Christ's teachings, as they were described by his apostles, I don't think any honest person could say they're anything other than truly beautiful. But the broad chasm between what he obviously was, and what I see in the condemning, pointing fingers of Christianity, is astounding. Frankly, although I think most Christians are great people, as quickly as they start talking (most of them), the very spirit of what they are betrays who they claim to follow.

So ..... I love the teachings of many religions and philosophies, Christ's teachings included. Is there something wrong with seeing divine inspiration in Christ's teachings, and a foul twisting of original intent in the dogmas of modern Christians? Or have they risen to such arrogance to believe that denying them is par unto denying Him?

I am interested in becoming a member of a certain local church. I am not currently a member of a church. The problem is that since I am not of that denomination, I am supposed to get baptized. I have already been baptized and have been a Christian for many years. The purpose for the baptism, I guess, is to assure that I have been baptized under this denomination's preferences. I was baptized by immersion, which is the same as what this denomination does. I do not want to become a member of this church to enter into this denomination. I don't really agree with denominationalism. I want to become a member of this church so that I can become more involved in the workings of the Church. I feel like I am part of the Church (notice the capitalization) and there is no need to be baptized again just to set others' minds at ease. (I have not yet talked to the pastor about becoming a member.) What do you think? If there are biblical reasons to get re-baptized, then I will. Can you help me?

Last week before departing for the beach I challenged the holy ghost.
It never showed up. I insulted its mother and called a slimeball.

Still, no show. I must conclude that either this holy ghost is a fiction or it is an impotent, lower-class spirit with no courage.
Do Xians have a reasonable explanation for the failure of the holy ghost to take up my challenge?
