Are there different levels of hell?

Like, is it worse for murderers than for atheists who are kind people?

And is there any getting out of hell, or is it always eternal damnation?

I don't for the fact that, they think that it makes kids feel less pressure about status, but you still are judged bc of the brand of uniform, accessories, and that kind of thing. What do you think?

My hubby just got deployed and I am having a hard time reading my bible. I feel it's what I need most right now for many reasons, but I can't seem to make time. I don't know, I guess I do have time, but I'm not making myself read it. What are some things you do to discipline yourself? Any ideas?

I have been browsing around this sight for a while, and there are times I can't help but to notice and anti christian sentiment here. My major question for you is personally is why.

I tried really hard to phrase this question in a way that wasn't insulting at all. I don't want to sound like I am whining or I think you don't have a right to your opinion. I just want to know how we can improve, or if you have any misconception or anthing

Adam and Eve only gave birth to boys. So where did the woman/women come from that mated with Cain and Seth?

I really want to spank myself. But what should I use to do so? A fly swatter, plastic pole, baseball bat, or my hand? Also how many times should I do it?

I don't. Many people do.

1 billion in 1804

3 billion in 1960 ( 33 years later)

The most dire problem facing our planet today is exponential population growth. We are increasing our numbers approx 79,000,000 per year, the equivilent of a country the size of Germany.

Eventually we need birth control or the population will be limited by natural means; starvation, pandemic disease or warfare. To stop the growth we need to apply the brakes now, while there is still a chance. We have significantly reduced death rates for the last 2 centuries. Until we do the same to birth rates across the planet we remain doomed to experience increasing problems of overcrowding and resource depletion.

Since the aforementioned religions do not permit birth contol, what is the answer? (please, no silly suggestions like abstinence or the rhythm method, we need a serious solution.)

So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen.

For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
2 Corinthians 4:18 (NIV)

In God's eyes the greatest heroes of faith are those who achieve prosperity, success, and power in this life, but those who treat this life as a temporary assignment and serve faithfully, expecting their promised reward in eternity.
Your time on earth is not the complete story of your life. you must wait until heaven for the rest of the chapters. It takes faith to live on earth as a foreigner.

PLEASE REFLECT, SERIOUS REPLYs ONLY

I am a Christian, but according to some Republicans I know, I can't be a Christian because I'm also a liberal. Why is this? Are all Republicans this close minded? They told me flat out that I am going to hell because I'm a liberal. Does anyone care to explain this?

I'm a mormon, and I understand where a lot of rumors come from, like polygamy (which is DEFINITELY not a mormon practice), but I just don't understand where the "mormons have horns" comes from. So please help me understand. Why do you think I have horns, when, very very logically, I don't.
