God burns a city to the ground and just because some women feels compasion for the people of the city he turn the woman into a pillar of salt

Why would a loving God kill every man, woman, child, animal on the planet in a gigantic flood? You think Hitler was evil and you justify this?

If there is an all powerful God, wouldn't it make more sense for him to just get 0rid of evil altogether. Or better yet, it would have made more sense to just start over.

ANYWAY

People are unreasonable, illogical and self-centered.
Love them anyway!
If you do good, people will accuse you
of selfish, ulterior motives.
Do good anyway!
If you are successful, you will win
false friends and enemies.
Succeed anyway!
The good you do will be forgotten tomorrow.
Do good anyway!
Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable.
Be honest and frank anyway!
What you spend years building may be
destroyed overnight.
Build anyway!
People really need help
but may attack you if you help them.
Help them anyway!
Give the world the best you have
and you’ll get kicked in the teeth.
Give the world the best you’ve got anyway!

Written by: Mother Teresa

Personally I choose to follow it.

Time and again I read things such as
"The theories of evolution and the big bang CANNOT be proven! "
(THOUGH YOU NEVER SAY ACCORDING TO WHOM)

your god / gods / things cannot be proven SO WHY DO YOU BELIEVE IN THEM???????????????????????????????

The bible says Jesus came to seek and save that which was lost.

As a Jew with no blood atonement as required by Moses, no temple, I couldnt be a Jew according to the Jewish bible and Moses- "The life of the flesh is in the blood and I have given it upon the altar to make atonement for your soul."

then I found out God didnt lie to our Jewish people from Isaiah 700bce
"He will be exaulted. First He will be marred more than any man, and lay down his life to make atonement for our sins. All we like sheep hae gone astray and the Lord will make to light on him the iniquity of us all. He will be despised and rejected of men."

Why do fake Jewish people say that if you believe in a messiah and he is Yeshua-God is salvation-Jesus in english your not 'Jewish.' because some of my people abandoned Moses and made a new religion rejecting Moses and the call for atonement on Yom Kippur and Passover-because they had no other way to fulfill it except through the Messiah-that is careYES

I am 21 years old and happily engaged to a wonderful man, however since I was 15 I have lived with a secret that continues to haunt me to this day.
I am in love with someone else, and he is my cousin. I would never do anything about it, after all...we share the same genes.
But I cannot help feeling this way about him, I wish I could but I can't.
Is it disgusting even though I would never sleep with him or whatever? I feel horrible every time I look at him and get that feeling of total infatuation.
I have been in love with him for so long now it's not funny, and if he wern't my cousin he would actually be perfect.
But since I would never act on my feelings, how do I make the love go away? I have tried telling myself that it will never work, but that doesn't help.
Please help me....I feel like a freak

Have you ever questioned what you believe in currently? Did this experience make you do more research on your religion, or did you just ignore your questions and stay the course? Did you ever believe in something different than you do now? what made you change your mind?

Okay, since you religious nut bars get offended by every single freaking question I ask, and get them deleted because apparently YA is run by religious nuts as nutty as you. I've decided to ask only non-offensive questions from now on. So, Who likes rainbows and sunbeams? Or ponies? Or ice cream?.... oops, would that offend lactose intolerant people?

My point is...if evolution is true, then why wouldn't it be feasible for mankind to turn into a murderous monster an a global scale?
Or, maybe we are meant to pollute or destroy the planet to usher in some new type of species that will thrive in that environment. Why aren't scientists celebrating the depletion of the ozone..."thanks to the pollution, that only we could create, the planet is finally on the way to destruction..."
I don't see any other "animal' on the planet "fixing or changing the direction" they are on! If scientists/individuals believe in evolution why are they deadset on creating cures for disease, etc.? More scientists are trying to save life than destroy it (who says we have to take care of it)...If the fittest survive, why are we imprisoning serial killers, murderers, etc? Shouldn't we be admiring them for their cunning, their advancement in culling the weaker of us "animals"?
It seems to me the evolutionists don't believe in what they have discovered...
