A sister in church told me she might be pregnant she is in her thirties. I told her that there is nothing too big for God.

But she is more concern about how it would look because she is not married and not in a commited relationship.

What else should I tell her? Please keep it real.

Every country and culture has certain spellings, phrases and words that mean the exact same thing somewhere else. Example: Mum and Mom, Lou and Bathroom...those are both from England/Canada. Which one's do you know of?

if we had all white colleges and a White Entertainment Televison station? If they did exist, they would be labeled as discriminative against minorities. I know that there are times when white people or other people of other ethnic backgrounds get into all black schools, but not very often. Now, don't go thinking that I'm a "racist" or anything, but one of my BLACK friends and I were talking about this yesterday and I just wanted to know what others thought.

There seem to be a lot of people who just don't know history. And they use their (inaccurate) facts to try to support arguments about current events, policy, etc. It's really disheartening to see such ignorance. I'm not talking about events in dispute, but basic facts. One doesn't have to be a scholar, but some general understanding of how we got where we are is useful.

Does this bother you too?

What are some of the most outrageous errors you've seen here?

I'm half-Asian/half-Caucasian, and my boyfriend is Caucasian. I swear people look at us more often than they do other couples. My boyfriend thinks I'm paranoid.

What do you think? Do people check out interracial couples more often? And why? (No, I don't live in the South or the Midwest either...)

it's about a woman who falls in love and marries the man....rather quickly, on a whim even. then he goes overseas for work.....and she has a series of hot sizzling affairs behind his back. do you think i would be persecuted by the public for being immoral, if so, should i end the book so that the heroine "learns a lesson"?

I get that “You are going to burn in Hell” speech, all the time. If I come back with some kind of comment like, :”Good, and I will keep all the child molesting priests company”, I get sent to “Sensitivity Training”.

My girlfriends’ boss kept hounding people, and telling them that they can’t gave any religious items on their desks that are not Christian. Well, that came to an end. They all got together and got her terminated. : )

Firstly, I'm Christian, but I refuse to take sides or be biased. There's a widely-promulgated doctrine that once you become a Christian, you're "safe" and can never go to hell. Thing about lies is that they'll turn up inconsistencies. The Truth, no matter how you bend it, will always return to an upright position. There is eternal security, yes, and no one can "snatch them out of " Jesus' hands, yes. But we have free will, and so we can WALK AWAY of our own choice. God won't stop anyone from walking away from Him. Moreover, the epistles in the Bible were written ONLY to Christians. If Christians couldn't go to hell, why would the writers stress for them not to live in sin and tell them continually that no one who habitually lies, steals, murders, gossips,etc. will ever get into Heaven. Did the authors write all this simply for the sake of wristlock while dipping quill in ink? Of course not. Some plan to use ignorance as their ace, but igorance was never really bliss.

Let's say you have a robot with a mind of it's own... it can, think, speak and act for its self. It's almost human with the exception of an organ body... is it alive? Does it have a soul? If not what does constitute something as having a soul?

Couldn't it be true that God was bored, so on the 1st day bang, 100,000 years later God looks around bored once more and does his thing. That was the 2nd day and so on. I can't imagine time was measured in 24 hour days, before we even had day and night. Also "Cruel God" if you made an ant farm would you look so close that you'd stop one ant biting another. No. So why would God especially as we are so ungrateful. Maybe God made 100's of worlds and our is one of the worst. Not worth the effort. Just a thought.
