Another way of looking at it is "When should the kids be supporting the parents financially? Is it even expected in these modern society?" where working parents have the choice to retire early and let the children make their own money.

ive ran into a few, and it seems that way to me. maybe they were a**kicking biker dudes in their former life, and now theyre going to beat the love of christ into you.
in prison, i noticed that the inmates that found religion in prison were the first to beat you up for not sharing their beliefs.
im not making generalizations, i know not all born agains are like that, but ive noticed that alot of them are.

cant i just be a decent person and live according to all biblical laws EXCEPT accepting jesus as my savior, praying, and worshipping? i think jesus was a genius and one of the greatest philosophers to ever live. but i dont want to bow down and worship who i believe was just a great MAN, not a god. no offense to anyones beliefs, im asking a serious question. and please dont just preach to me or quote john 3:16.

If a man marries, then decides that he hates his wife, he can claim she wasn't a virgin when they were married. If her father can't produce the "tokens of her virginity" (bloody sheets), then the woman is to be stoned to death at her father's doorstep. 22:13-21 If a man rapes an unbetrothed virgin, he must pay her father 50 shekels of silver and then marry her. 22:28 If you see a pretty woman among the captives and would like her for a wife, then just bring her home and "go in unto her." Later, if you decide you don't like her, you can "let her go." 21:11-14
Glad it's the new millenium, huh, girls?

and dont say that they dont. they either tell you you will go to hell for believing differently, or say they will pray for you, or pretend to pity you, or incessently preach to you. if any christians answer this with a preachy answer they will be proving my point.

I am planning a holiday sometime in the next few months and I can't seem to decide where to go.
Can you give me pointers why I should choose a particular city and what are some of its highlights.
My choises thusfar are Vienna and Prague or Budapest. What do you think? I could really use some good suggestions.

No seriously - do people actually abuse the good-natured?

Do you find yourself becoming less tolerant and less giving as you get older as a direct result of your experiences?

I was once turned down for a job because the employer thought I was 'too nice'!

to say "you are going to hell" is judging and making you act like god. Would that make the person saying that go to hell?

Do most believe the events described will happen literally, just as they are written in the Bible? Is it OK within your faith to believe that Revelations is more of a dramatization of future events rather then hard facts?

Why are there so many East Indians (people from India) (not Native Americans) on this Yahoo Ask It thing? Are they in the US or India? Further, why do they seem to excell at computer programming? Further does it have something to do with the caste system in India? Are the Brahmans computer geniuses? Just curious.
