I love the name Claire, but I can't think of a nice sounding middle name to match. Preferrably something short...

Lets say you (a girl being a good christian) just found out that the guy you was going out with is an athiest. You two have been going out for about 3 weeks now. Would the relationship last? You being a good christian having a relationship with a guy who is an athiest. What is your estimate in this relationship?

You all know Joyce Meyer, the multimillionaire televangelist. When it comes to money she preaches one thing-AND LIVES THE TOTAL OPPOSITE!

Wouldn't be nice to own 5 mansions? A 500K vacation home? 100K cars? A 10 million dollar plane? ALL PAID FOR NOT BY HER, BUT BY HER MINISTRY!!

And that's not all. If you become Joyce Meyer, you sell books at Wal-Mart were the poor shop, but not if your Joyce! Her clothes are all hand made! You get armed security guards, a 105K boat, $30,000 tables, $ 19,000 vases...well you get the picture.

And finally, if your Joyce Meyer, THE BIBLE DOESN'T APPLY TO YOU! Matt 6:19-21, "Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth....." If your Joyce Meyer, the multimillionaire televangelist, your only worry is how to spend your money-given to her by followers that are predominatly poor!

If you don't like this question-which is pure fact-then start looking on the net. It's true! Follow the link-

If you're talking to someone and you know they're right about to bring up something you don't want to talk about, what's the best way to quickly change the subject, and not have it come back to whatever you were trying to dodge talking about?


I've had this several times in multiple circumstances, not one thing in particular.

i'm not a prude by any means but i find the use of the F word (amongst others) offensive. Would u agree that it's just the low life, ignorant and uneducated amongst us that don't know the difference between right and wrong?

I know that "God" says He's the only "true god", but the bible seems to infer that there are others. Even if they aren't "the true God", are they still gods? Where are they?

Today while I was reasearching I found something interesting and here is the small quote: "Buddhism and its teachings respects all other religions and in fact, it is a transgression to speak ill of anybody or a group of people or their philosophical or religious ideas. Condemning other people or their religion is considered non-religious conduct and is an idle-talk which is one of the ten non-virtues deeds one must abandon." I find it interesting that they are truly accepting of all religions. I thought to myself, "why can't Christianity be more like that?" Christians are well known for condemning other religions, is it possible that God and Christ grant salvation in other ways and religions? Because it goes back to the old question, if our God is a loving God then why would he send people to hell who are indeed good and peaceful, yet just of a different religion? What is your opinion? keep in mind that I am a christian and am aware of what the bible says. this is just a question

Not to be rude or anything but why should I believe in something just because that is what you were told you should believe or born into. What about free thought and to love this earth, not only man. The ideology of worshiping a man is a little inane to me. I would rather worship nothing and have a respect for everything that exists for it is all in constant balance. Why be subjected to absolutism. Do not do this for you will go to hell... do not do that for you will go to hell... abide by these rules and you will be spared from eternal damnation. It sounds like fear mongering to me.

Why was New Orleans mayor Ray Nagin not evaluated before he got his job? He says "god" told him to rebuild New Orleans as a chocolate city. He must have schizophrenia since theres no god so he must be having auditory hallucinations. Dont the US officials screen people before they get jobs like this?

that when they get a girlfriend, they find it hard to be a loyal and honest partner. Do you think this is true?

I am not saying this is my opinion, just wondering what people think.
