This is a real question, based on fact...not the Bible. This is not some lie, like those told by Christian violation reporters. I had painful medical problems, as a result of "God's" disinterest.

A comprehensive explanation of a given set of data that has been repeatedly confirmed by observation and experimentation and has gained general acceptance within the scientific community

in other words: It has TESTED evidence to back it up.

So nothing is "just a theory"

People loosely throw this word around like it meant just a random thought or personal opinion

I want to have some stuffing for Thanksgiving. My friends are bringing the turkey and all the other trimmings, but I am in charge of the stuffing. I searchd the websites for a decent/easy recipe. Do you recommend any easy recipe? if not, where can i order/buy stuffing? in Southern California? I heard that some markets will have them (Albertsons...) are they worth it?

My kids' father died in july - he was 42. his second wife of two years is now 32. she had the gravestone engraved with her name on it which really upset my boys (16 & 18). Just because she was his wife at the time of his death it's ok for this? It seems the odds are she will remarry and have a family of her own (they didn't have any children together) - why would she take this FAMILY PLOT (1 of 4 - his grandparents are buried there as well) for herself when she is only 32, they were only married 2 years? Am I being unreasonable thinking this is odd?

Right of passage are cerimonies that are held for a specific event such as birth, death, marrage. What are your rites of passage? How do you celebrate them?

The biblical scrolls and earlier bibles used God’s personal name until later years when Christendom replaced it with LORD or GOD (all capitalized) ON THE INCORRECT RATIONALE THAT THE PERSONAL NAME WAS TOO SACRED TO BE USED. Yet God is the one who made his name known. We all have personal names and not titles. LORD, GOD, Lord and God are all titles. Proper reference means that God should not be called by title, for God has a personal name and our prayers would be most effective if we address him by that name. His son, Christ did (Refer to Christ’s answers to Satan, when Satan tempted him). Think about the Model prayer taught by Jesus. “Our father, who art in Heaven, Hallowed be thy name….” Stop to ask yourself, how can it be hallowed, when many do not even know the name. In our bible reading, shouldn’t we use God’s personal name whenever we see LORD and GOD by substituting those titles? God personally let us know His personal name in Exodus 3:15 and 6:3. Your Bible version may contain that personal name (not capitalized LORD,GOD) at Genesis 22:14, Exodus 17:15, Judges 6:24, Ezekiel 48:35, Psalm 83:18, Isaiah 12:2, Isaiah 26:4.. Did you know that each time you say Alleluia, that you are actually saying ‘Praise JAH (short for Jehovah, the personal name)’ and that the Hebrew form of Jesus means ‘Jehovah is salvation?’

I'm still in high school (a senior) and am a pretty laid back person. But this guy keeps pushing it. In one of my classes we have assigned seats and I sit next to him. He's usually a cool guy but lately he's been crossing the line....saying things like "I want to f*ck you" and that's as polite as it gets. He's being sexual and I'm uncomfortable with it. I've just been trying to ignore him but that doesn't seem to be helping any. What would you do?

Sorry for the high school drama, but its a problem I have. Thanks for the help!

and you ask him to help you in your life

a) what do you (have you) asked for

B) Dont you give yourself any credit for the "prayer comming true"?

I mean, if you feel you need to pray to God to help you then you must feel pretty down, desperate and/or ready for something to change? Right? Then don't you think that you either consciously or subconsciously might have had a role in those prayers comming
true? I mean, if you want something bad enough then you can make it happen, you don't need God.

I was just wondering if you were willing to explore some of your "answered prayers" from this perspective.
