Society & Culture - 25 September 2006

There are no right or wrong answers to any of my questions. Some of you are new to this, so I thought I'd throw that out there.

Answer in anyway that you wish. Thanks.

If Christians stopped answering their absurd questions, since all the answers are give by other atheists anyway. How long would the high-fiving go on before anyone noticed? Hours? Days?

I'm leading for about two weeks with just an acoustic, before i bring in the rest of the new worship band. What are some songs that are well known and favorites in your youth group?

....you listen to a bunch of sh*t on the radio while waiting for a good song, and then you pull into the driveway just when your favorite is playing?

....you cough and laugh at the same time and you can hardly breath as a result?

.....you look very closely out the window, and then a sudden stop bumps your head against the window

.....you go to a public restroom to use the toilet and you lock the door. And then, the lock is freakin jammed when you try to get out?

....a gust of wind blows a bunch of dust in your face and you stumble blindly for the next six minutes?

Life is interesting. lol

According to Saint John's Gospel..

In the beginning was the word, and the word was God and the word was with God.

We also have God referred to as the alpha and the omega. The first and last.

Could the solution to this definition be 'nothing' ?

That is nothing in the infinite perfect sense. Existed only in the beginning and will exist in the end in that perfect concept.

Once 'nothing' creates something, does something exist within 'nothing', where nothing has no time and space ?

What are the powers of 'nothing' ?

When I was growing up I had nobody to look towards. In my family I had no girls my age to look towards for any sort of guidance and I had no sister so I didn't really learn how to act 'like a girl'. So instead I just sort of grew up into a tomboy instead. When I'm joking around I guess I end up saying hurtful things instead, and because enable to really survive in my school I ended up in a lot of fights so I'm a pretty decent fighter too. I also have a sort of attitude problem, in which when I'm pushed too far I have a 'black out'.

The thing is is now I'm an adult, I can't act like that in society. I've always tried to be fair and nice to everyone but it just doesn't work out, especially with people I'm trying to be nice to. So what do I do? I've tried everything from not talking, not joking around, and trying my hardest to be the 'right kind of person' that would fit in society. I'm so confused, mom always sends mixed messages too. Help me!

My boyfriend insists that the Bible says that if you marry, you'll only be concerned about material things and that's not good. So, he never wants to get married. This bothers me... And I want to show him proof that that's NOT what it says........ He used to be open about marriage, and now he's like "NEVER." Not cause of me...he loves me to death, but because of the Bible... It's annoying..

no swearing, just everyday things that family members and lifelong friends would say to each other when greeting, thanking, chatting, drinking ("cheers" in greek?), anything ordinary-like.

My youth pastor told me that no matter how many times we go to church, no mater how much time we spend at church, and how much effort we put into settting up for the service, we can't all go to heaven. He said that just because we're Christians doesn't mean we'll go to heaven. I don't understand that. If we call ourselves Christians, then we should believe in Jesus, and have him in our hearts, correct? And all we need in order to go to heaven is believe in Him with our whole hearts. So then, why don't all Christians go to heaven? Don't call my youth pastor stupid, or weird, or say that he's wrong. And don't bother wasting your time if your going to say something stupid. Please. Help me understand so that i know for sure that i'll be going to heaven. I've felt God say that i am, but i'm not 110% sure yet. Please help me!

I am Christian, I know that what the bible says about being a Christian. I don't believe in forcing Christianity on others though. I think that it's fine to tell people about Christianity. Even when Paul spoke to the Romans, though, he did not force Christianity on them, but merely spoke to them about Jesus and the love and healing he brought and of how Jesus died for our sins. Not once, though, did he force Christianity on them.

For all those who aren't religious, doesn't it reaffirm your belief that the majority of religious people are stupid when they try to refute your arguments about God being imaginary or the Bible being a book of myth by QUOTING THE BIBLE ITSELF? It proves to me that religion is the opiate of the ignorant masses. Haven't they heard of people laughing at them for their circular reasoning? Why do they still do it?

Please, please, pray for my father and my family. I don't care what God you pray to, just please...we need help.

My father worked as a Quality Consultant with Lucent Technologies for 25 years, until he was caught in a massive layoff. He has since to find a job (it has been 18 months) due to the fact that he is 48 years old and will be retiring in 20 years or less. He has been searching relentlessly, but has not gotten past the interview stage yet. Please pray that he will find another job.

I will be going to college next year and my sister will follow four years after me. My parents have savings, but not enough to cover this amount. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers...and if you ever hear of a Quality Engineering/Consulting job in the Baltimore, MD area, please send it my way.

I thank you for any and all help you can provide.
