Many Christians talk about a worldwide government that will signal the second coming, which they call the "New World Order". I was wondering if this is specifically mentioned in the bible, or if it is just how ultraconservatives have manipulated the bible to suit their purposes of being anti-UN or other global efforts.

Hello all,
At the moment I am listening to the neighbors music which is in Spanish and one of them sings until wee hours of the morning. Our home is right between the family. So back and forth they go all day and night. It is my entertainment when I am in the front of the house. Then at night I get to here there music and the one man singing. When it gets way late the kids go to one house while the grown ups keep drinking, and singing. It is like little Mexico and I do not have to go anywhere lol! For this boring little town, this is our free entertainment lol!
At times we will stay up way late with our music blaring so it equals out. Most of the men work at the same place as mine. When there truck pulls in during the work week I no mine is going to be in soon.
So what are your neighbors like? Good? Bad?

hi all

i belong to a muslim society where people usually dont consult pundits or astrologers for their charts made. i had had some curosity so i have been consulting some astrologers over the period of past few months. they have been make strange predictions about myself that i am a mangalik and dont have a good luck and would keep on having difficulties throughout my life and wont do good in job and will have a problematic married life.

i wanna know is there any truth in such predictions or are they just stupid things created by these astrologers and if there are any successful people who were declared as mangaliks out there who are doing well in their career and married life. and are there any mangaliks who have married non mangaliks and sharing a blessed married life.

thanx in advance

What makes you proud to be Christian?? For me it's knowing that Jesus loves me so much and that He was so absolutely wonderful to die for my sins...and through Him I can develop an everlasting relationship with my Father...I love Jesus so much I'm going to cry right now!!
God Bless you all!!

Has anyone ever stopped to think that no religion has it all right but no religion has everything wrong? All religions share the same basic ideals and morals. Most religions share the idea there is one almighty power over the universe. So why do we argue. Why do we allow petty beliefs to cause wars and insanity? I used to be Chrisitan but I found that Christians are self-rightous. I believe the catholic church and islamic religion both created views for self gain of governing control.
Why doesn't anyone else think about these things or believe this? Why does every religion think they have it flawlessly right? It's disturbing. Life is about living, about finding love and about learning what love is and what life means. Nothing more. So why must we put ourselves to fight when we should be searching for meaning to life. Knowledge, understanding, love, compassion. These are what makes life. Why are so many destroying these things just to prove they're religion is right?

In popular culture, cherubim and seraphim tend to be depicted as numerous and not very powerful, whereas archangels are rarer and more powerful and elevated. Yet in the hierarchy of angels, seraphim and cherubim are actually the highest, with archangels being second-to-last. What happened? Was there one or a few people from whom the misconception spread -- some key literary or artistic work perhaps -- or was there something more general?

Do you tell him "yeah you already told me that" and be rude or do you act like it's the first time you hear it and be fake?
And if you decide on being fake, if he said "I think i told you this before, havent i?" what would you do??

Really, do you really need to jump in on every question and say we are stupid, sheep, fools, or idiots (to quote several responses) just because you choose not to believe?
Our belief (in whichever deity/deities we believe in) is just as strong as your non-belief.If I ask the difference between God and Allah and you respond "There is no difference because there is no god", do you really think I am going to say "Oh my gosh, (s)he's right!How could I have been so foolish?" just because you called us "brain dead Muppets"?(Actual quote from one answer, by the way.)
Why don't you go onto the art questions and say "There was no Impressionist School, you arty-farty posers!"?Why don't you mock goths in the fashion questions?Why not waste your time laughing at Dada-ists, claiming Dada is not art, it is anti-Art?Do you have nothing better to do?
Or more to the point, why can't you accept and respect other people's beliefs instead of forcing your beliefs on us, and mocking our beliefs?

No matter which deity is uppermost in my mind at any time, I generally always believe subconsciously that I will still be there somewhere after I am dead. Does everyone agree and feel the same way, or is there anyone who truly thinks they will cease to exist after death?
