Society & Culture - 15 October 2006

Can someone please tell me?
Its sad to see what the world has become. I`m sure a bunch of you know what I`m talking about.
What todays youth knows about when it comes to certain things is mind blowing especially when you are the one to hear it come out of their mouth.
And now I see young girls degrating themselves by wearing outfits that I would have gotten beaten for wearing if my parents caught me in it. It's just sad.
And you see respectable people in public become frightening online stalkers talking to these girls behind closed doors.
And so many other terrible things I dont have time to address...

What's happened???

Just read this...

"An atheist can't be an atheist without an Almighty God to be an atheist against."

Um... so does that mean that there must also be a very UNmighty god since I don't believe in one of those either?

This actually makes me happy. Means I need to start making a list for Santa too...

C'mon, people can't actually say something like that with a straight face, can they?

Must've been my imagination.

Olga wakes up in the morning, goes to the toilet and feel very lazy to brush her teeth. she goes back to her room in her face full of dirt's. she goes and wear her the clothes that she was wearing for 2 weeks, she loves the stinky smell of it. she puts some fire works in her hair and fire it to have this funny hair style, Not to mention her socks, a strange green smoke comes out of it and when she pass near something alive like plants they die and turn gray. she goes to the supermarket. as soon as she talks to the cashier the cashier goes into a comma and fall down from her killing breath. then she goes to school and everyone avoid her. she feels unpopular, that's why she try to bully us coz we are nice and we were the only ones who welcomed her.

There is so much hate surrounding your religon because you are so closed minded. The world hate closed mindied people. You answer everyones question by refering to a 2000 year old book when they want to hear whats in YOUR head. You blinding accept everthing in your religon as fact, while others research and study and have the decency to call their outlook theory. Maybe the devil knew how humans in the future would react to unrealistic stories and therefor put them in the bible. If you religon was based on treating people right, loving your family, exploring the possibility of a superion being, and being happy, people would accept christianity with open arms. Instead you all about fear, blind faith, following rules, fire and brimstone. That does not sound like the plan of all all loving god, but more like evil. I know that you christians dont like to beyond what you have been taught when it comes to your religon, but can you see where Im coming from?

In what ways do you set an example that would draw people to listen to the teachings of your belief system or faith?

(Christians often refer to these as gifts of the spirit. Others may use other terms.)

Accordingly the Bible states that "flesh and blood can not inherit the kingdom of God". Meaning one has to die first, obivous. Now 2corinthians12:3 states, Paul speaking, " And I knew such a man, whether in the body, or out of the body, I can not tell; God knoweth". 4.." How he was caught up into paradise......"
Paul is saying that he was taken to the 3rd heaven, (age). Did Paul die at one time, before he finished his ministry? Does the book of Acts record his death in chapter 14 verse 19.
Is that why God gave him a infirmity, so he wouldnt boost?..Thank You.

After you have accepted Jesus and he has breathed His Spirit into your heart..you are then born from above...a new child of God..but there is another birth..where you are birthed inot His Name..your identity changes...within...and He..Jesus begins to shine His faces thru yours and you partake of His high priestly ministry...praying thru you for others and AS others... He momentarily makes you that person He is praying for...are you asking Him for this new birth ? there are also even more birthings from heaven..thru Jesus...more of His faces being revealed to and thru you... but you must ask and ask and ask....and he will do it.........Are you asking Him for them ???

Or do you just say that so people won't think you're a homophobe? Please be honest. I don't know you in real life, and I'm not judging. Think of this as a survey or a poll.

Oh and by the way, just so we're all clear, that gay guy that lives down the road that you say "hello" to when you happen to see him, he doesn't count as a FRIEND. That's an acquaintance.

Atheists around here apparently think people who believe in god(s) are stupid (particularly Christians it seems). Christians around here seem to think that everyone that's not a Christian is stupid to choose going to hell over believing in their bible. I've seen Sikhs called stupid by someone who didn't even know what Sikhism was. Muslims are called all sorts of things by virtually every belief set, the largest of which is stupid. Everyone has their extremists (Fred Phelps anyone?), but that doesn't mean we define a religion by it. Witches are supposedly stupid because they believe in the use of spells. There are more examples, but I'm running out of characters here.

Why is someone stupid because he or she doesn't have the same paradigm that you do? That's the generic you, not you specifically.

I don't think people are stupid because of what they choose to believe, though I don't understand why they think others are because others don't believe the way they do.

When it comes to your beliefs or lack thereof, how does the way you act and speak here in cyberspace and the way you act and speak in real life compare?

How are they similar and how are they different? Are you less vocal about your beliefs in real life? More vocal?

We were watching "Snapped" on the oxygen channel and this old lady killed her two sons who were dying of Huntington’s disease. (They asked her to do it if they had to go to hospice care) Mind you, her husband and her mother in-law died of this disease and she watched them die and prevented her husband from committing suicide (he even watched his mother die) I support it. I wouldn't want my family to suffer seeing me die from some horrible incurable disease. I would rather have a physician assisted suicide, and/or sign the documents refusing resuscitation. What is your opinion?

If we considered men as advanced apes, we would choose to love those who were docile and admire those who were exceptionally intelligent; and we hated those who didn't suit our likeness.
When we learned to know that men were the children of God who bore all the seeds of God's attributes, we would reasonably change our attitude to unconditional love.
Facing the brutality of the persecutors, Christ told His disciples to forgive because the persecutors know not what they were doing.
And now, the Messenger of God for our age says:

30. O SON OF MAN!
Deny not My servant should he ask anything from thee, for his face is My face; be then abashed before Me."
(Baha'u'llah, The Arabic Hidden Words)

Yes, mankind really need a divine education to change radically and return to their noble station.
