Society & Culture - 1 September 2006

I am a Christian, but always wondered about this. You believe in Jesus, but don't believe in celebrating his birth, and what about the birth of your children - why can't that be a celebration? In your belief what makes it a sin?

This is in no way meant to criticize your religion, but only to get some knowledge about it.

By throwing stones, do you not encourage others to throw stones at you?

And this accomplishes what, exactly? Some sadistic pleasure in hurting others? This is a satisfying way to spend your limited life?

Is your life so pointless you care not whether you achieve anything at all?

"Then was the secret revealed unto Daniel in a night vision. Then Daniel blessed the God of Heaven.

"Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever: for wisdom and might are his:

And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding:

"He revealeth the deep and secret things: he knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him." Daniel 2:19-22

I hate my co-worker, she's loud, obnoxious, incredibly defensive, she'll tease you and if you tease her back she gets upset. She is insecure as HELL. She's gross. I know everyone has a co worker that they cannot stand,but I have this urge to kick her fat @$$. Of course, I do not want to be fired. I can't avoid her because I deal with her as a coworker anyways. What should I do? I can't kick her (i'd probably bounce right off that huge behind) , and please no comments about killing. A few more details:

She's almost 40 but thinks she's a cute 20 year old.
weighs about 250 pounds and about 5'5
her voice is really high pitched and loud. Think of Fran Drescher on helium.
she makes every attempt to make you look bad in front of your boss
she asks questions and cuts you off every single time.

As the seconds of our lives tick away, one after another, are we using them wisely to achieve something valuable, or are we frittering them away sitting in traffic waiting to get somewhere where we can do something?

Shall we use our precious time to throw stones, or build bridges?

Must we spend the precious moments of our lives striving to hurt one another? When we're on our death-bed, will we say that was a life well-spent?

My boyfriend is tan skinned black curly hair and he gets called mud sometimes by white power groups. Would it be mean for me to call him that too?
Or should I call him that in public? Should I say come here you dirty mud then kiss him?

All the time I've been observing and partisipating in Yahoo, and not once has an Amish rode in to answer a question. Does this offend you too?

I see a lot of anger in responses to questions about Jesus and/or Christianity. Have you had a bad experience with a Christian? Do you not understand Christianity? Is the religion scary? Do you feel judged by Christians too many Christians? What is it?

2006-09-01 15:13:33 · 34 answers · asked by Lee V 1 in Religion & Spirituality

I mean it seems like just when things are on the up and up between God and me I get hit by temptations, and such and some times I fall and some times I don't. If I'm a Christian why do I still sin or have the choice to sin or not or have the abbility to sin? I know we're not perfect and that one day we shall be but why are we still facing sin and temptations even if we are saved? And I am saved. Please give an honest well thought out intelligent answer. Use the Bible for reference if needed. All answers that bash God or Christians will be reported and flagged as inntollerant harrassment.
