It's a great site to offer or ask for things (free of charge) from people in your locality. A brilliant worldwide movement which more people should know about. Do you?

A guy I used to work with always made this claim. I find this a bit weird since some I've known many Freemasons and I've never heard this before. Is this some sort of old bias or something????

i am thinking of making a christain movie about a yard worker named Jim Gondure, who starts working for a preacher, and the preacher turns him into a christain. Well he goes home that day and talks to his father, Emanuel, and he is a businessman who thinks "life is money, you have no money, you will die!" few months later, Emanuel fires all his workers, abandons his family, arrests and kills the preacher all because they are christains. the next day, his company runs down causing him lose his home and all his money. Later on, Emanuel becomes deadly ill and is rushed to the hospital, where every day, Jim would visit him saying "you must know christ!" and every day Emanuel would run him out, until one day he says "the day i SEE God and Jesus and feel his nail scared hands, would be the day i believe, until then you shall leave!" the next day, Jim walks into his room and says "i know you don't believe in God" and his father starts crying and says "I saw him and Crist's hands"

I need some inspiration.

Maybe you know someone who won the lotto, who wrote and published a book, someone who is a champion at something, someone who is rich - loves their job, and has wonderful kids, or maybe YOU are someone who has done something extraordinary.

and could see, everyone, everywhere, at once, hear all thier prayers, at once, (as we're told).....
Then why would you pick the odd random nutter to convey your important world changing message?
Why not speak to everyone, at once to spread your word? We'd all lead good christian lives, and believe....job done?
Is the fact this simple obvious thing doesnt happen, a flaw, in christianity, relying on sigular nutters, to hear and convey the word, who also, ask for cash, to help this important work?

in the OT bible it tells you exactly how an alstar should be made and how it should look and what it is to be used for.

so why dont christians make their altars the way the bible tells you to? and why dont you present offerings to your God?
they dont have to be animal sacrifices just some kind of offering,
like maybe flowers you could burn those for your God.
i think he would like it if you still did such things :)

Someone chastised me (mildly, I think) for refering to a country as she. Example: Great Britain struggled to hold on to her colonies but she was too weak. I know it is politicaly correct to neuter language, but it is arbitrary and incomplete. France will always be La France-feminine.

of all the places i've visited, i've found white americans to be the most racist group of ppl, (american whites and spaniards which i guess comes from their history with the moors) but why white americans? what they've done to their own citizens, the native americans, mexican immigrants and the black ppl. white americans are insane!

Some people say they experienced miraculous healings in their lifes
For example: His father was healed miraculously when there was no hope for him

I say : What about other people who lost their dads?
Why didn't they enjoy similar miracles?
There were definitely believers and decent people among them, so you can't say: "maybe they didn't believe or they weren't decent"
Maybe the miraculous healing you experienced was just a "slight
healing possibility coming true"
Or does God favour some people and why?

another example:
Some say that the Pope had healed a sick child once, miraculously, just by touching him
OK then all the sick children shall make a que infront of him and let him cure them all
You may say Pope can not choose the time of the miracle he performs
God decides it
then I say: why doesn't God heal all children by using Pope's touch or in other ways? Does God favour some children and heal only them?

I've lived in NYC all my life and there are so many stereotypes about Blacks, Asians, Hispanics, etc. that I never even knew existed until I read about them on the internet. So are people in diverse cities like NY and SF less likely to stereotype or is it pretty much the same?

If you have ruined all of God's best plans for you only because you were never taught to believe you were good enough to deserve one in the first place, how can He not give you a new and better one?

The following verses from the Upanishad allude to the inability of man to imagine God in a particular form:

"Na samdrse tisthati rupam asya, na caksusa pasyati kas canainam."

"His form is not to be seen; no one sees Him with the eye."
[Svetasvatara Upanishad 4:20]4


Then why do Hindus make idols and worship them ?
