I know that most people will see this as an intentionally provocative question. But I really mean it as a serious question. It honestly worries me that a lot of people really believe stuff like this. Am I wrong to think that a majority of americans believe that satan is some kind of evil being that really exists? Am I wrong to be worried about this fact?

This affirmation by Catholics and Orthodox of each other as Sister Churches was given papal direction in 1967 when Pope Paul VI handed to Patriarch Athenagoras the brief Anno Ineunte (25 July). The brief affirmed that Orthodox and Catholics were already brothers "in very fact" by virtue of their common baptism, apostolic succession, priesthood, eucharist and participation in the gifts of God to His Church, and acceptance of the "fundamental dogmas of the Christian faith on the Trinity, on the Word of God who took flesh of the Virgin Mary". The Pope explicitly espoused a Sister-Church ecclesiology for our day:
For centuries we lived this life of "sister Churches," and together held the Ecumenical Councils which guarded the deposit of faith against all corruption. And now, after a long period of division and mutual misunderstanding, the Lord in enabling us to discover ourselves as "sister Churches" once more, in spite of the obstacles which were once raised between us.

If you haven't and want to make Christmas a little special for a needy child, just log onto Samaritan's Purse website. All you do is fill a shoebox full of small items for a boy or girl and drop it off ( the locations will be on the website for your city). It's a great way to get your children involved in giving as well.

Are you the type that "force-feeds" others your religion without knowing anything about them or their beliefs? Or maybe you are the type that gets involved in a peaceful discussion about religion, and is satisfied to let others decide their religion for themselves. How do you feel is the best way to present your religion to others? Do you feel whenever you see someone wearing a penticle that its ok to jump in their face and bash their religion, tell them they are going to hell, and forcing your beliefs upon them is the right way? Or would you rather ask them about their religion first, getting involved in a peacefull conversation, and then letting them make their own decision? Would you be satisfied if the other person doesn't wish to follow your beliefs, but remain in their current path?

Ok, Im a straight male but people think Im gay because I am very flamboyant because Ive grown up around all women and I never had a male father figure. Honestly, I think if I was more masculine I could attract more girls than I already do.(which is still better than some) I wanna become more masculine. What should I do?

South American nations are Christian also, and have high crime rates like the USA. If Christianity is supposed to build better, more humane people, why does it produce so many criminals? In the Scandinavian countries, only 5% go to church.

I just asked this, but perhaps I didn't word it exactly.

Since people believe the Rapture is an actual real event that is going to happen, what actual real steps have you taken to prepare for it? Such as "I have arranged for my pets to be taken care of by X" or "I have written letters to my family that isn't christian and they are in my vault?" or "I have written in my will that in case of rapture, my belongings can be dontated to a Children's Hosptial."

Thanks!

Are people just shocked at the fact that i'm not too narrow minded to go out with someone from different cultural background to my own? Or are they just slightly racist?

Personally, i know shes the woman I'm going to spend the rest of my life with and she thinks like wise. I'm just interested to know why we get the reaction we do!?
