When we are making a conversation, is it good to look straight into people's eyes ? What are other expressions that we should do to prove that we're listening what they are talking about ?

Very often, when a homeless person asks for spare change/food or whatever, a lot of people will think,

"Why don't you go get a job, and work for your money just like I do?"

Well, uhh, I doubt their resumes are exceptionally impressive, and there's a good chance they can't even read, write or count.

So my question is, what kind of job can a homeless person apply for? How do they improve their lives? Are we right to judge them?

I believe in my self and my ability to create and destroy. I am responsible enough to handle both.

Every election they b*tch and complain about the policies...but when you ask them ...no, they never voted. I worked in a federal voting poll last election in a primarily gay area...and I was shocked by how few gay people came into vote...and yet I hear them b*tch all the time...How can you feel you have the right to complain if you haven't even voted..I'm a Canadian..but I betcha it's the same in the US.

true sacrifice like, staying away from your family and working abroad just so your family will not go wanting... letting someone go because they will be happier wih someone else even though it will make you sad...

Ok, I understand you say Jesus died for our sins. But what I don't get is why he would have to do that. The bible says no man is without sin, and I totally agree, but if Jesus died for our sins then does it not even matter if we sin? Why do we have to ask forgiveness and all that if he already paid our moral "fines." If that is true than the only requirement to get to heaven is belief in Jesus and it doesn't matter whether you sin or not? Can someone tell me what part I'm missing? And please don't just quote 2/3 of the bible to avoid answering because I really want to know.

I've heard that some Christians have respect for other religions. I've even heard of some Christians who have said all religions strive for the same Truth and that non-Christians who are good people will go to heaven. How can this be? How can you believe Jesus is the Son of God and that there is only one God, yet turn around and say that Hinduism, which has it's own Gods, is also a valid religion that deserves respect?

I'm not condemning people who say these things. In fact, I think the idea that all faiths lead to the same truth is enlightened. In fact, I'm really curious, how do you balance faith in Christ and respect for other religions?

It's still fiction and unless you can prove otherwise, you gotta admit you only believe in God because it's self-gratifying.

Is that the only thing they have in common?

Are they the only two that baptize by sprinkling?

I am talking about a time when it took days to go 20 miles down the road, or on ships.

Before Plains, Trains and Car/Trucks.


Not being in contact and fellowship, could all religion be changed...


Not the Holy Bible but the way people and Church understand it?

and other religions as well..

my friend is white she mainly dates other whites & people think she is so racist because of that. I know some other whites who choose to only date Latinos. what's the difference? If she is racist, aren't other girls racist too only date people who are Latinos.

I find it hard to believe that the man, the sun of god Jesus has a book written about him with millions if not billions of followers. You are supposed to devote your life to his cause and existance. The book that is written on him skips over more than a third of his life. I know If I was a devoted baptist I would be a little upset. I would want to know what he had for dinner lunch and breakfast every day of his life. If you should worship him shouldnt you know everything? Anyone else feel like they got Jipped on the jesus section in the bible?

Steve Irwin died in a freak accident on Monday and there have been many uncalled for remarks posted here.
Why must people be so disrespectful when someone who is in the spotlight dies?

On South Park the characters are more entertaining and you usually learn a valuable life lesson at the end of the show.

• Non-Hispanic whites are nearly 2.5 times more likely to kill themselves as blacks or Hispanics.
• Older non-Hispanic white men are much more likely to kill themselves than older men or women of any other group
•White men in their 20s, conversely, kill themselves only slightly more often than black or Hispanic men in the same age group.

The Bible isn't proof. It's just a piece of literature like The Odyssey or The Book of the Dead.
