Don't Christians believe that you have to be a follower of Jesus Christ? Is it not part of their beliefs to speak against non-christian religions?

Ski break would in febuary
(its one week off of school)

~You get an extra week of summer (if gotten rid of)
~if no ski break then that means no break for 2 months (like martin luther king jr day until march~spring break)

in my opinion we should get rid of ski break because its not needed (there's winter break to go skiing or snowboarding). It doesnt snow here but if you drive about 4 hours there is a place to go skiing and snowboarding but i know things will be expensive and crowded.

whats your opinion?

Something that has weighed heavily upon me in my personal reflections is the idea of theistic spirituality without reward. I realised that much of my personal piety is based upon the hope of heaven and I would like to ask this hypothetical question to the people here,

"Would you be prepared to believe in G-d and serve G-d if you knew there was no heaven?"

nota bona: I believe in both G-d and in heaven, so please treat this as an academic enquiry.

I don't understand why people would willingly hurt others to the point of causing permanent damage just to obtain something so trivial as a Tickle Me Elmo toy.

Why? What is wrong with our culture that makes such a mindless thing more important than not harming other people? By our culture, I am refering to America of coarse (I don't know if this "craze" has happened elsewhere). Why would anyone beat the living daylights out of each other just to get a TOY?

Is it something psychological? Or people just stupid?

If you don't know what I mean, check this page and search for "Wal Mart": http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tickle_me_Elmo

This is only one of many stories. Now with the new version of the doll out, many simular stories have appeared throughout the news and internet.

I just can't understand why anyone would be willing to go so far just for a vibrating kid's toy. It just doesn't make any sense.

It confuses me to read some of your questions trying to figure out which one your referring too because I see them as different.

Jesus is very caring and forgiving to the point that he gave his life for everyone. Because of Jesus everyone has a chance of going to heaven
because he is willing to forgive you if you can forgive yourself. Jesus feels your suffering and suffers hisself because of it.

I believe in Jesus but follow God because he expects more from us than Jesus does and isn't as caring. God leaves your life and soul in your own hands if you fail it's your fault not his and he moves on.
Basically like if your got on drugs or whatever and lived a bad life that created a living hell you'd have no one to blame but yourself.
Also if you go to hell its your fault not his, can't blame him for expecting you to care about yourself and you chose not too.


It should be easy for you to tell the difference one is willing to forgive the other isn't.
