Scriptures say to you ( those who are christians, please no blasphemy)

2 Samuel 22:3
my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge,my shield, and the horn of my salvation,my stronghold and my refuge,my savior; you save me from violence.

Psalm 18:2
The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer,my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge,my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.

(can you find the comparison in the Bible to these scriptures and why they were written? Its pretty awesome!Of course both of these scriptures have something in common-)

It just seems to me everything Christians do offends someone. But when ppl do things that offend Christians they throw the freedom of speech as them. But Christians dont' seem to be allowed to have that freedom......just a thought

IS there an afterlife?
Are there things we do on earth that affect it?

The American Goth scene has been totally destroyed by one simple clothing store . . . "Hottopic". Why is it everyhere you go there are Goths who are seen wearing this clothing and labeling themselves "Gothic"? I personally think that American Goths are stupid. Now, me being part American and Gothic, I would know of this. There are so many out there saying "My favorite store is Hottopic, and btw, Im Gothic so f*ck off and leave me alone! No one can tell me what to do!" I just want to know the answer to this question.

What would life be like if everyone only told the truth. Would it be better or worse. How many lies or "white lies" do you tell in a day?

I know this church that says being left-handed is a psychological disorder. They insist on teaching those who show a tendency toward being left-handed undergo strict discipline to change. Is that their right?





OOPS! Did I say left-handed?

I meant homosexual.

I would really appreciate as much answers to this question as possible. Being a believer in God myself, I have seen proof that God exists. I would love to hear everyone's special experiences if they would like to share them with me.
I'll start with one of my many experiences... this one is kinda corny.
Once upon a time, a long time ago, I met a guy...
He has been special to me ever since I met him.
But I don't talk to him, we just met once through a friend, and that was it. I see him every now and then around my college campus, and all I can do is stare.
Anyways, one semester, I did not see him at all. I thought he dropped out, or just graduated. And I started to get sad. So I prayed to God one night, "God, please let me see this special guy tomorrow up close, close enough to make eye contact with him."
Hehehe... and guess what happened.
He was walking towards me the next day, right up my alley, and I got to make eye contact with him.
So yeah, your guy's turns! :)

but we would not be able to go to church in Saudi Arabia as they haven't got any, their policy is churches are not welcome.
If we visit other countries we usually respect their laws.

Choices:
San Francisco (Trust me I lived in the Bay Area for 15 years! These people are as smug and arrogant as they come)
New York City (Naturally due to the heavy east coast bias in the media and the city's influence over the country)
Boston
Chicago
Los Angeles (the only reason they're listed is because of jackass celebrities who never shutup!!!)
