I mean apart from not knowing how to use an alarm clock or being a real d***k and not caring to be punctual;
what is it that some people are always late to turn up for work or for an event or an appointment ... is there a logical or psychological explanation to that?

Can you answer this question using only biblical scripture?

For example:

Baptism is for........(bk., chap., text from the verse)
or
Baptism is........(bk., chap., text from the verse)

There are several different references to baptisms in the New Testament. However, I'm looking for references to "water baptism"

I'm interested to see what the bible says about "water baptism". I hope you help me with this excercise, and I hope it helps you. I know some people won't want to do this. And that's OK. I understand. Thanks in advance to those that answer for me.

Does anyone know of a surefire way of getting rid of them? I've tried starving them, poking them with a stick, those sprays you can get from harware shops: 'monstaway' and such like. But the little buggers won't shift. They've been there for years.

...catalogued the species known to exist in Noahs time and calculated the approximate square-footage two of each animal would take up? Would they all fit on the arc? And what did they eat? Let us assume that the animals were kept away from their predators. Did Noah bring extra rabbits to feed the tiger with?

If Jesus came down to earth and told everyone that mormonism was the correct religion, would you admit your wrongs and follow their ways? Or think it was the act of satan... then you'd really be in trouble.

For you devout believers (of ANY faith), I'm curious: Who do you believe to have a better chance of being accepted into your god's kingdom:

1) A man who firmly believes the same 'correct' way as you (has accepted Jesus into his heart, studies the Quran daily, etc.) but contributes little to his society's wellbeing and is often immoral

-- or --

2) An atheist or believer of an alternate religion who helps others, lives a morally savory life, but has no faith in the tenets of your religion and/or deity.

As a corollary: If someone is born and goes through life never having been exposed to your religion (therefore never believing it) but lives a morally sound life, can he/she be accepted into your god's kingdom?

I personally am agnostic -- since there's NO WAY to either prove or disprove the existence of a higher being, I admit that I simply don't know if one exists or not. That said, I'm fascinated by the idea of a deity/religion and those who firmly believe/worship.

An episode of The Twilight Zone where these people with pig faces were trying to surgically alter the looks of this pretty girls face scared me so bad that everytime I heard the theme music I would run screaming and crying (my sister used to hum the music just to watch me cry, we laugh about it now). Now I enjoy watching the show and actually get the messages behind them.

Wouldn't that mean the writers could twist the facts any way they wanted? Could the true message pf Jesus have been warped? It seems many Christians today are disdainfull of other religions, yet Jesus was a kind man who respected everyone. Why is this?

Breathe deep the gathering gloom
Watch lights fade from every room
Bedsetter people look back and lament
Another day's useless energy's spent
Impassioned lovers wrestle as one
Lonely man cries for love and has none
New mother picks up and suckles her son
Senior citizens wish they were young
Cold-hearted orb that rules the night
Removes the colors from our sight
Red is grey and yellow white
But we decide which is right
And which is an illusion
