Society & Culture - 20 September 2006

From what i've seen so far the answer is a resounding NO! Here's an example of a question asked earlier that illustrates this:

I too have asked questions that require one to step outside of what they believe to be true to make a point... So far, most of the Christian answers i get make it evident that they don't understand what a hyphothetical situation is.

Your thoughts? Why do you think this is?

I hear other people say that it's no worse than it's ever been. I mean in terms of war, hate, immorality.
What do you think?

....then why didn't He set some sort of organization to interpret all of His different teachings for all of His followers? He must have known not everyone would agree on all the Scriptures, right? Or even which books/letters should be Scripture? And He maintained that "every kingdom divided against itself will be ruined (Mt 12:25). So, surely He was looking out for His kingdom here on Earth, right? He wouldn't have left us hanging, would He have?

Not on CNN, not Fox, not MSNBC, I mean...something bigger is happening. You don't have to respond to be mean or call me a nut, because I really don't have the answers or any message other than I can sense something is not right, and something is about to happen. I figre here is a more diverse range of people and maybe someone has some notion or is sensing it too. For me, it began this year. January to be exact, and now it's getting stronger. I don't know what it is, but I feel deep inside it will be life changing for every thing on this planet.

I am going to college next year and am wondering about housing. I am considering joining a fraternity but my dad is concerned that fraternities are hedonistic and lead people away from Christ. Is that true?

Women cry saying they should have a right to an abortion, but they also have the right to keep their legs closed also. I feel if a woman is grown enough to play with the d ick, then she should be woman enough to take care of that child also. In the the case of rape, incest and therapeutic reasons, that should be the only exception to the rule, although with rape and incest, you can always give the child up for adoption to people that want kids and desperately tried for many years. And keep in mind with rape and incest, there is a one and about 1/100,000 chance that a child will be conceived in that manner.

if you could change just one point in time in your life that would cause in your belief a ripple effect in your life what would it be and why (less than 2000 characters please).

And if He is perfect, how did he create?

Something perfect just is and complete in itself. It doesn't want anything, need anything or do anything, it only exists.

So if god does exist, surely he must be imperfect.

Our t-shirts say I love being Black ( http://www.ilovebeingblack.com ). Most black people love them. Some white people seem to think these shirts cause division between whites and blacks. Silly me, I thought it was slavery or racism or the embedded myth of white supremacy or how the people at the top want everyone else to focus on small entanglements like this.
Let me be clear, these shirts are created by black people, for black people. These shirts are meant to express the love for your blackness because it has been diminished in so many of us due to: negative images in the media, the destruction of the black family structure, violence in our communities, or the many traps laid out for us.
Why do these same white people see nothing wrong with the shirts that say 'everyone loves a jewish girl' or 'blondes just do it better' or everyone loves an irish girl' or 'kiss me i'm italian'??

I'd like for ALL ethnicities to respond, let me know if you find something negative about the shirts..

GG creationists?

Or just another red herring that our playful Christian God has tossed our way (He does, after all, work in mysterious ways)?

Christians Muslims and Jews have chosen to worship a God that protects them from their tremendous amount of worldly abuse-They believe that the goodness in their lives was bestowed upon them by their commitment and belief and celebrate this with their fellow followers-all the while blaing the suffering and carnage and despair that is ever prevailent and evident in the media here. What good does it do for a man to gain the whole world and to lose his own soul? I'll tell you-we keep the generations of intelligence alive thriving and content to know that they were brought into this world by the love of two and not one GOD who would force them to believe or perish in HELL FIRE! Unfortunately the stupidity of this belief allows them the belief that they can drive their cars and abuse the resources that are here now-rather than conserve for the future as they have a better place to go after the die here-What a sickening philosophy that it has caused Mother Earth to become so feverish!

1400 years ago Allah and Jesus had a competition to prove who the real god is, Allah went first and held Jesus by one hand and flung him around the world, within minutes, Jesus was back. Then it was Jesus's turn, he flick Allah with his little finger and up till today, Muslims all over the world use loud speakers to call him 5 times a day, 'Allah ho Acabar', they still can't find him.

Last week, my friend met with an accident. He fell from 3rd floor of the building. Since then he has been in unconscious state. He has had several fractures to his ribs and head injury. There has been no improvement in his condition.

I think only god can help him.

Can anyone pray for my friend. His name is Praveen.

Please help...
