I feel black/white/hispanic is completely wrong and it should be by ethnicity. There is no way to prove races scientifically. Ethnic breakdown would make much more sense. What do you think? Middle Eastern/North African should not be considered Caucasian and Indians aren't the same as Chinese to be labeled simply "Asian."

Even though the change means little difference in the overall the sense. The fact that you had something and now being told to it differently throws you off.

I was looking at all the clubs she could join, or at least what clubs existed. What I wanted to know is why is there a Native American club, a Japanese club, a Spanish club, a French club, a African American club, but no Caucasian club? I mean I’m not raciest, but how come there is all those other clubs, and lots others, but not one like that? Lol!!!!

But rather obedience to doctrine based soley on blind faith? Is it that people are using faith based initiatives to make real changes to our govt? Just wondering what you think.

If so, how does he choose who gets to do these things? Why does some guy making $70,000 a year find a dollar on a ground when the poor homeless starving guy doesn't?

How does he pick which athlete gets to be the big hero in each game?

Are people who win the lottery more holier and religious than those who play and never win anything?

It was really horrible, people were dying and when I woke up I was crying. I haven't read the bible, well to be honest, never and I hadn't eaten anything that would cause me to have this dream, nor watched anything relating to this. Lawks a mercy - I must be going round the twist!

When I ask why people do evil things, theists say that god wanted to give us free will, and he couldn't give us free will without us sometimes choosing to do evil... but they also say that god has free will and never chooses to do evil... so there is a contradiction here. If god can have free will and yet never do evil, why didn't he make us the same way? Also, knowingly creating something that can and will do evil would seem to be an evil act in itself, and god is not supposed to be capable of evil... so there's another contradiction.

How do you religious folks maintain such a self-contradictory belief system without being compelled to say "OK, this is just too silly, and I don't believe a word of it any more"?

Seriously but atheists and agnostics state that nothing can make them believe and many theists have explained that faith is not a physical, evidence type thing but a belief and a feeling inside ones heart. So why ask for evidence when you know we Christians consider it irrellevant?

Everything seems to be about business these days. Why is that and will we get a break soon?

I mean, people in suits going to jobs in the city thinking they're just the greatest. Just how crap is that and what's it all about?

Even a lot of the music now just sounds like supermarket rock.

When things are cancelled because they may cause offence isn't this disturbing? Will we one day lose Christmas and the word blackbird due to the offence they cause? Surely we have the right to love or hate who we want providing we dont fight or kill anyone as this is freedom.

Fellow Chrisitans, how would you deal with family members that are constantly trying to hurt you and disrupt your life with your husband and children?

I try to be loving towards them, I do forgive them.

What would you say to them as a Christian?

Any ideas welcome! thanks!
