If you really knew were it came from you wouldn't celebrate it. I was reading were it really came from. You may not believe me or what ever. It came from the so called GOD Nimrod. He married his mom and and had children with her. Her name was Isis also known as ishtar (easter). They never told people that they had a kid together. She said it came from the holy ghost. She symbolizes the bunny for easter. Bunnies do not lay eggs. They need a mate. Pagans tradition mix with Christianity. All of the holidays true history is evil. It's all sugar coded

you all please be truthful now!!! when was the last time you went of your way to do something nice for a stranger??? did you do it with the intention of getting something back in return or was it completely unselfish??? if you lie about it you might fool me, but god knows your heart and he will deal with it in his own manner!!!!

Millions and millions of planets in this universe, probably a lot of them with life on it, we can't be the only planet with living creatures on it. (the fact that 'they' don't contact us, is the biggest proof that there is very intelligent life on other planets)

God seems to have made all of those planets. Anybody have any information for me on how many of those planets were visited by Jesus?

"to" or "through"?
I believe our Catechism says "To" but I thought it was "through".
Thanks.

Last week I got in an argument with my girlfriend about guys vs girls. To make a long story short we made a bet that her roommate and her couldn't pin me and I lost. They made me agree to let them pick my Halloween costume. They told me it wouldn't be too bad. They had five costumes in mind (a pirate, a mental patient, a vampire, a cop, or a superhero) and I could pick which one I wanted. This didn't sound bad at all until I saw what they had in mind. I have to wear this costume for 3 different parties. Which of these do you think is the least embarrassing. I am really stuck trying to find the best alternative out of the 5 and feeling pretty silly that I'm going to be picking one of them. I don't know if they're expecting makeup, heels, or shaving.

I'm inviting some friends over for a Halloween party. I'm a rather busy person, so I don't have a lot of time to go out and buy stuff, and I don't want anything too complicated.
I was wondering about ideas for activities, other than talking and watching movies. (I am planning on doing this, but I don't want everyone to fall asleep, which can happen with too many movies.) I have a small apartment, so dancing, relay races, and the like won't work.
I am not going to allow any alcohol at my party...please keep your answers clean.

I can not understand why people bash other religions, But I see "christians" bash Mormons ( who are christian) more than any other religion. They read the bible, they belive in Christ. They believe that Christ visited ALL of his people after the resurrection, but for some reason that tiny detail enrages so many WHY???

as a Roman-Catholic I've noticed rampant attacks on the Christian faith. No atheist dares attack Judaism or Islam. I understand that most are only attacking the majority of this country, Christians, but I don't understand why. Most Christians are pretty quiet. You do get sects that go out and try to preach and shove their points down your throat but don't atheists do the same? Now, while it's easy to make comments about pedophiles passing off as priest and how the Church covered it up (look up Canon Law, though it is dated), how some Christians don't view evolution as fact (it is a theory), and to make rude comments which I'm sure plenty of you will do, I hope that some atheists or even others of different faiths will simply answer my simple question; Why all the Christian bashing?

Recently a professor has given me an immense amount of help on a project just because she is nice. I would like to give her a gift to express my appreciation. Could you help me choose an appropriate gift? (Don't worry; I'm not trying to buy a grade. In fact, I'm not even enrolled in a class of hers right now.)

She's a relatively young woman. As I recall, she doesn't like chocolate all that much, and she feels that she's not good at taking care of plants. Any suggestions?

Okay, bacteria has a purpose and place in our bodies. However, why is it that people in the bible with obvious physical symptoms are referred to as possessed. Or they are treated like they were made sick because they were evil people? If God inspired the bible, wouldn't he have let the writers know the real origin of these diseases? Also, did God create viruses? What purpose would viruses would have served other than to hurt mankind and the animals? Why would God allow for his word to seem so superstitious and misinformed? Wouldn't he know that after humans learned more about science and the human body, intelligent people like me would question the credibility of the bible? How can I believe if there are so many flaws and cave-man like things in the bible without sacrificing my intelligence and putting blinders on?

Has this ever happend to you? You find yourself wondering if you should say hi and start a conversation. While you mull this over, you find yourself staring at the wall, looking at your feet, fiddling with your purse (or what ever you have in your hands). Before you know it, you have reached your floor and your are thankful that you were able to get out of there! I was wondering if anyone else does these same things? If you don't, what do you do??

Ok I am a 14 year old guy that I like. He is cute, funny, smart and we really connect. Well feels like sometimes, well actually alot of times he flirts with me and I do flirt back and it feels real. I wanted to make a move, so I asked my best friend to ask this guy if he had a problem with gay people, he said no but he just didn't talk to them. I thought he was gay, because he does act kind of feminine and people says he is, and me and him together feel, right. After that comment do you think maybe he is straight, or maybe he could just be hiding it. There is still part of me saying that maybe he is just trying to cover up, but i don't know. What do you think?

I know he gave us choice, and i think going to hell has something to do with rejecting christ. Why would he send his children to hell?

Now i propose another question.

The last time i have been in a church was when i was baptised, funerals & weddings as well, but i dont think they really count. I kinda believe in jesus, but im not really a good person. would i go to hell?

II'm in my late twenties. I'm a single female with no children. I feel like I can't get my life together. I graduated from college and worked but I quit my job to take pre-requistes for Med School. Now that I did that I feel like a bum. I don't have any money and am 28 and still live at home. I took out sooo much school loans to live off of. I'm trying to look for a job and nobody's calling me for interviews. My phone just got cut off. I have all these bills. I wanna move to another city because I feel that maybe I will be able to do better. I live in NYC and I can't even find someone worth dating. I know I shouldn't be concerned with a man but it would be nice to at least have some sort of companionship. Should I feel a certain way? Can anyone give me some advice. I feel like crying.

God first made him without the intentions of making a woman, so why would Adam have had a penis in the first place? So did God create it later or what?
