I always see nordic women with blacks. You never see proud meditteranean women with them, only the nordic sluts. In Sicily they do not mix with blacks.

Genesis chapter 1 states; "God called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night, so the evening and the morning were the first day." (verse 5)

"Then God said, 'Let there be lights in the firmament of the heavvens to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs and seasons, and for days and years; and let them be for lights in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth;' and it was so." (verse 14)..."so the evening and the morning were the fourth day." (verse 19)

Thus, our 365 day years with 24 hour days were created on the fourth day.

In 2 Peter 3:8, the word "as" is NOT in italics. This literally shows that the statement is simile, meaning "like a thousand years."

Since our days and seasons were not made until God's fourth Day, I ask especially of you who claim creation was made in six 24 hour days, what is a day?

God through Christ Jesus grant you a great day today!!!

My son is five years old. He loves Jesus with this beautiful and humbling and sweet love that only little children seem to have. He prays to Jesus every night before he goes to bed. He used to have bad dreams since a dear family member passed, so he started praying that he would not have bad dreams. Well, he didn't have one for about 4 months or so and then the other night he had one. He was upset because he said he prayed so he doesn't understand why he had a bad dream whenever he prayed. I explained to him that nightmares are normal and that every one has them. I don't want him to lose his love for Jesus because he feels like He didn't answer his prayer. Do you think that this will happen? How do I help it not to happen?

Do you indicate that the family should give it to a church, community group, etc.? Or do you just leave it up to the family to use how they want? Please explain your reasoning for your answer. Thanks!

I mean, can one be a christian without believing all the standart dogmas and interpretations, or can one come to their own understanding. Like, lets say, christ being the symbol, the invisible force, or definitetly a path to connecting us to the spirit world or God/Gods. A wired intuitive knowing that life is linked to God, or for westerners to Christ. But not in the way Christianity spreads the good news, meaning without any real deep understanding, or feels it must, or need not understand to believe. Would I be an outcast or an heretic if I totaly, or the larger part, reject some of their literal interpretations. Are there legitimate Grps that explore Christian understanding in new, awakening new ways, that takes responsibility instead of sweeping all their sins in a numbing, denial, false innocence etc. ways, under the carpet.?

As a person who has spent a number of years in the third world, I've seen many strange things the modern world would probably dismiss as nonsense. Witchcraft, Black magic and voodoo practicioners. Seriously, these things are real and when I tell my friends of these things ( here in the us) most of them just laugh. I am convinced of the authenticity of these things. I've even seen a spirit(Demon?)called into someone and took possesion of them. I told my wife of these things, but I don't think she really believes me! . I respect these people and their culture or religion (whichever) and it is not to be taken lightly. I am not a religious fanatic or a supersticious person but seeing is believing right? What do you think? Do you think it is all a load of nonsense or do you think such things exists? I tell people there are things the modern world don't see or refuse to see! There are many strange things that exists in this world!

I had a dream that I went to Heaven. I was on a bike sort of gliding through the fields of wheat. It was in color, and I could see beautiful very clear stream of water, very vivid and blue following the fields. I stopped & entered a small Inn with cobble stone floor and red roses painted over the door, it was beautiful glass panes. Four ballerinas were dancing with long flowing white dresses. God lets you experience what you like and have such a release. I felt so free and loved where I visited. After I woke up, I felt like I had gone some place. Have you ever had a dream like that, where you woke up and felt like you had actually gone some place. Guess it is a very deep sleep. Just wondered?

I have a friend who has a really awful boyfriend. He's cheated on her multiple times (once with the 40 something mother of one of their friends) and even when he isn't cheating on her, he treats her like crap. He calls her fat and just dosn't appriciate her at all. She's a beautiful girl, really, and she dosn't need to take his ****. But she just keeps. Going. Back. To him. We, her friends, keep trying to tell her he's a sleeze and that she dosn't need him, but she won't listen, and recently has gotten very angry if she hears a bad word said about him. She's already ended a friendship with one of her friends (who she's known since 6th grade) because that friend kept trying to open her eyes to how crappy her boyfriend is.

How can someone stay with such an awful guy? How can they ignore when their friends try to save them? What do we do now?

Why do I want to become a doctor and go to poor countries and help people? Why does my school have food and clothing collections and raise money every month for different countries. Why are there dozens of charity's out there that Americans get involved in? And everyone except for Native Americans that live In the U.S. are immigrants, like I'm from England, I just wanted to point that fact out

(especially if it is charity), why do they say they did it because it is the Christian thing to do?
Does this imply that they would not do these things if it wasn't their duty to Jesus to do it? Does it imply that a Jew, Moslem, Buddhist, etc. would not be charitable?
What is wrong with doing something charitable just because it is the right thing to do for one human from another?
BTW - I'm Christian (Catholic to be exact).

there own to be the only truth? In other words, do they not think it is not strange that 99% of believers are raised in a culture of that same belief and and those within all those individual cultures are sooooooooo sure that theirs is THE way. Isnt it all a bit familiar?

I've heard donkeys talk, and they must have cleaned up his dialogue A LOT! Donkeys cuss like sailors.

And if medeival scribes altered the words of the donkey, do you think they stopped there? On what other crucial points have we been deceived?

Jesus walked on water? Come on! Sounds like a typo, if not wholesale propaganda.
