Society & Culture - 13 August 2006

I was sitting in our staff coffee/common room for morning break. Someone brought in a packet of biscuits. Just because I refused to eat one - they all think that im picky.

On another occasion - someone brought in some Swiss chocolates - which I ate a piece.

Now most of the work colleagues think I only go for whats good - prim and proper..

One of them actually called me a perfectionist.

on its ban on birth control? Many of the countries being devastated by AIDS are devoutly Catholic -- a faith that treats birth control as a sin. if the church preaches love and culture of life- how can a religion tell peole to love and care for each other but then turn a blind eye on the death and suffering of innocent people due to not teaching them to protect themselves?

How do they determine good and bad, right and wrong, moral or immoral? They must be their own god the final arbritrator of all things or either they let the government decide for them or society.

If we were having a late party (late being past 8pm for most Christians) and started ringing a bell, you can bet money they'd be calling the cops for disturbing their peace. How come they're allowed to wake up people who like to sleep on Sunday mornings?

I am not sure what my sexual orientation would be... :'-(

I am okay with sex with guys, anal sex only a bottom, oral I refuse to give to anyone. I am okay with being with a man or a woman in a serious relationship, but never want to be in a sexual relationship with a woman, EVER, and would prefer to be with a guy...

In the Armianists view Jesus loves a persons freewill option more than he loves the person. He would rather let a person make their ignorant, sinful, stupid decision than over rule them out of eternal love and save them from the horrible fate of eternal torment. He loves the idea of their freewill decision more than them as a person.

After all if god (or whatever) is omnipotent then he/she/it probably wont care anyway, it will just save us all killing ourselves about stupid theological questions. Wipe out the heathens! why dont we wipe out the church instead? (im betting some people will get really eggy about this question)

So why do all the bible quoting folks on here get so offended when someone has exercised their freedom of choice to ask a question which queries the substance of their belief?
Are all the christians failing to live by the word of their god?

Like, if we find intelligent life on another planet, would God have made them as well as us? And, why did he make them different if we are "made in their own image" as it were.

" everyone else believes they are the only religion to get into heaven" LOl so do the "christians

"other religions wrote their own bible" Men decided which books should be in the bible and which books shouldnt. Not to mention the thousands of versions and rewrites there are and the original manuscripts dont even exist anymore.. LOL

Especially when it come to Islam. hey think they know about it after watching the paranoia and fear inducing media stories on it.

All terrorists are muslim.... not all. some terrorists are cathoilic, christian ... crusades... that christian terror campaign went on for a long time..... believe in god or die.. LOL bush and cheney are terrorists and I think they are self proclaimed "christians".

Christians are the scourge of the world.....The most intolerant.

there bible is full of contradictions.....


"well the new testament makes it so we dont have to do things in the old testament anymore" LOL so God needs updates huh ..funny

I am a white man and my girlfriend is from vietnamese background. We are moving in a Jamaican neibourhood in Clapton (Hackney/ London/ UK).

I want to have good relations with my neighbours and I'm very interested in their culture. What can I do to develop good relations with them without being phony?

I'm very sincere but I am affraid of being perceived as a rich white kid moving into a poor neighbourhood to gentrify it.

Do you have any advice for me? Feedbacks from Jamaican people would be really appreciated.

Love

For example, Christians believe in the apocalyptic end of the World.

Are there beliefs that aren't built on such a disastrous perspective?
