I believe that if we all realized that each of us individually is the least significant person on Earth that there would be less self-centeredness,less violence,less greed and more compassion, more empathy, and more peace.
Also there would be more truly charitable works, humanitarian efforts, less poverty and less hunger.
What do you think?

I am a 26yo SWF who is a mother of one small child. I live in an apartment that is owned by a minor who inherited the complex from his grandparents. He leases the building through a realtor until he takes over at 18. He is a Japanese boy who is about six inches taller than I and has about 50 pounds on me. I am small and petite for my age. He asked me to go to a movie with him. I went with him to the movie.
After the movie we drove back to the apartment complex where we live. I picked up my daughter from a neighbor who was watching her. He came over and we talked about why he no longer lived with his parents. He said they wanted to retire to Florida. He asked me where the father of my daughter was. I told him he was in Iraq but he had no contact . I told him even though I was a nurse I was still struggling because he left me with a lot of debt plus I had student loans to repay. He asked me if I would like to live for free. I knew what he wanted but never gave him an answer.

Hey I'm a 16 year old boy, who's hormones go crazy at this age. My dad said that boys are allowed to loose their virginity by the time they finish their puberity. Anyway like I was saying, girls finish their puberity like when they're in Junior High. Why does it take them years to decide if they're ready or not?

I have a good friend who is from Germany and currently lives there. He and his new bride just moved into their brand new house. I want to send him a nice house warming gift and wondered if there were any traditional good luck-type housewarming gifts that I should send him.

Since a lot of protestants seem to like guessing about people, based on their own biblical interpuations, and all this left behind stuff. WHO DO YOU THINK THE ANTI-CHRIST WILL BE?

I was baptized a catholic, but have not practiced any sort of faith or attended church in about 20 years (I'm 28). I just have too many questions that I have not received acceptable answers to. First, christianity seems to be very anti-gay. I personally am not gay, but have several friends who are and they are all great people who lead a good productive life. How is it that someone who murders, rapes, or molests children can be accepted into heaven so long as they accept Christ as their savior and repent, and yet a gay person who has never harmed another person and led a good life can't get in only because they are gay? Also, when it comes to sex, any sort of pre-marital sex is also a sin. How can something pleasurable between 2 consenting adults be considered wrong when no harm is being done whatsoever? If these truly are the rules of God, why would I want to worship an entity that would not reward those who have led a good life, yet reward those who have committed atroscities?

In Alcoholics Anonymous, the "newcomer" is told to start the program by attending 90 meetings in 90 days. My friend started in such a program and only made it to 43 days and then was ambulances to the local hospital and placed in a psychiatric ward on suicide watch. I went to visit him as I was concerned about his welfare and he did'nt even recognize me! As I tried to refresh his memory, he started chanting and screaming many slogans that are common in the AA cult and, though I never knew him to be religious, he said something about Jesus and God save me etc. Then, a nurse came into the room a administered an injection of sort and he calmed. What did Alcoholics Anonymous do to my friend? I am very concerned! Can anyone make a suggestion about how I can help him. He seems to be brainwashed by AA dogma! Can I save him?

me, and what I am to be in life. I know God has called me to be a missionary, but, I need some more direction. I am trying to figure out, if it be foreign or home, and what college I am to go to. Also, pray for our church and I. We have just lost our pastor a few weeks ago. and i am taking it hard. We are searching for the man God wants for us behind the pulpit. I have been stuggling since I was really close to the former pastor and wife. Well Thankyou so much, and God Bless, and Take care!

Even when I pointed out that Christians are contradicting each other re: Old testament laws vs. New testament laws, and asked for clarification, nearly every answer I got contradicted the next one:

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/?qid=20060829184607AAjXdw0&r=w

One guy even contradicted himself by saying "Jesus did not overturn any of the laws." and "The Jews, I understand still live by the old law, but Christians do not" WTF???


OK , is it the case that some Christian sects believe one thing about this issue, and other sects believe something else?

Maybe baptists have one take, Methodists another, and Catholics yet another.

Could that be an explanation for these disagreements that Christians are having on this issue?
