The Indians are the only people with actual rights to this country. Why then is America the most racist country in the World?

Im pretty sure someone with half-a-brain realizes cracker is a slur.

Im sure someone with less than that can tell attacking someone becuz they are white is just as much as a hate crime as if they were black, STUPID!!!!

and still go to heaven? I've read about drug users, murderers, child rapists who find Jesus in prison, and that they're all saved and are going to heaven. So does that mean someone can do whatever they want and still get to heaven as long as they find Jesus before they die?

Also, what do you have to do to be able to have sex and disresepct your parents and stay out late and drink and party and still get to heaven? Is accepting Jesus enough? Thanks

Just wondering.

If a man opens a door for you, do you think "What a gentleman?" Or do you think something like "You sexist pig! I hope you die!"

I look forward to your answers.

Most of those kids probably believed, so why? Even if it was an accident, your god still controls what happens right?

People need a take exams to practice medicine, practice law or construct building but the most important thing in life, having a child is granted to anyone with the reproductive ability rather than the skills and life experience to bring up a productive member of society. Therefore do you think reproductive freedom is a privilege rather than a right that needs to be controlled by parenting exams and only people who show the ability to be proper nuturing parents should have the right to have children. Surely one would not want to construct a skyscraper without taking a requisite course and having the proper experience due to the inherent risks to other people. Likewise the risks to society of having children that are improperly brought up are even greater and should be regulated. This is a theoretical question which does not dwell on the practicalities such as punative measures, education or birth control or the ethics of curtailing reproductive freedom which you are free to discuss.

This claim has been refuted by many leading journalist and researchers. In Africa alone, more Africans come to Christianity than to Islam 1.5 million in 1902 to 500 million now statistic from 2005 The islamic faith is dwindling. in africa. In The West many muslims feel it is safer to become an apostate in the West than in their own country as if they leave islam their lives are in danger. In islamic countries they can be killed.

Where in the bible, the quran, any science book, any Wiccan spell book, or any other book of sacred texts, does it make the claim that life is going to be fair?

i see love like the fire of my soul the undicslosed feeling of the centre of my soul is at peace the love of my heart is free and my voice is heard i see life as what and why it should be lived the way you want it to and not in the image of others and why it should not be judged by what you see on first impressions but to sit and listen to someone or just watch them is understanding you never know you might find your true love, i see acceptance of all kinds and forgivness of all i see life and love become one with the togetherness of 2, i see and feel what people see and understand how they feel, i speak less words but say more with my eyes i see more but speak less listening and understanding is more than words can describe, i see life from my eyes and love from my heart i see strentgh from my soul never judging never taking first impressions just looking and lsitening.


someone said to me they think i am wise does anyone agree ??????

I don't know you so i don't want to judge you and the Bible says: "Enter throught the narrow gate, for wide is the road, and broad is the path that leads to destruction. But narrow is the road that leads to life, and only a few find it." Matthew 7: 13 I think that's the verse.

a christian, would he say this?

"He destroyed my son and took from my family Ron's future and life. And for that I'll HATE him always and find him despicable," Fred Goldman told ABC last week.

Or is this behavior excusable for christians?

I was raised catholic in Italy nonetheless, where you pretty much are surrounded by nothing but catholics. I used to go to confession, pray every night, undoubtely believe in God. Then one day, I became interested in Philosophy and after studying the subject, I started to think and think over and over, and my faith that seemed so strong, now has dissappeared. It's so sad, but seriously thinking, I am questioning life after death, even God. I feel sad about this, but perhaps it truly is just an artifact of people. The bible was written by humans, humans, that claim that God talked to them. If someone would claim such a thing nowadays, he would be put in the looney bin, but yet, we live after the bible. To add, the bible was written by men, why only men? Why is God not coming to talk to us anymore?The beauty of nature and everything around us, is no proof of the existence of God. Why do Christians necessarily have to be right? What about the Buddhists? Perhaps they have it all figured
