Could you tell me how you found people who wanted to study? Or give me any hints on how to approach a stranger to see if they are interested?

when they're poor? This is a wierd concept to me b/c I live in Dallas. You can buy a brand new house here for about $120,000 and you can find a cheap apartment for $400 or $500. I don't think you can buy a trailer house in CA or NY for 120,000. I know their minimum wage is higher, but when I was making $11/hr here I still sometimes had issues. I can't imagine having to survive on 7 or 8 there. So how do poor people survive in expensive places like this?

I've seen this Yahoo Answers Team threaten numerous questioners who had totally harmless questions. The last one, someone asked if anyone had ever layed hands on a sick person and they were healed. The "YAT" responded that their IP address had been reported to authorities. I have noticed I've only seen them do this to inquirers who ask Christian related questions. Are they for real? Are they trying to bully and inimidate Christians? Whats the deal? Are they going to threaten me for this question? Go ahead and cancel my account. If its not an open forum, its worthless anyway.

The Devil, of course, assumed under virtural proof to be the 'darker side' of the human psyche with characteristics like being mostly primal and predatory. Also somewhat miserable and suicidal this devil would have to be considering if he were trying to pry Life from his opponents grasp only to clutch it.
In Either Case, God potentially having more knowledge of how to ... well Do, i guess.

The difference in this ultimatium I'm trying to point out is basically how do you feel he is working. Do you say He's trying to keep everything from destroying us while at the same time shilding us from Truth or is He (how)whatever it was that made this universe and (how)whatever it is that has our Earth still able to sustain life considering all the change we've made (so in essense a scientist with all that effort)?

This is one of those you can't convince anyone either way but I have my mind made up, just trying to see how other people see it.Sorry for all the words.

I'm 29 and teach painting and drawing in college. I get along with my students really well. A couple have expressed interest in keeping in touch after class, etc. I'm anywhere from 5 to 10 years older than them. And if you need a religious dimension to the question in order not to report me, this is a Christian college. What do you think, wise ethicists?

like an office file,and all your cells work like orderly machines with parts ,then common sense tells me someone had to design it.The chances of it just all coming together is 1to the tenth power by one hundred trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion. So theoretically,if the earth is so many millions of years old it is still imppossible to just come together,by accident over the short amount of time. If I tried to throw software together with a computer it would take a design and a creator,theirs no way in the world I can do it by accident even if I had a million years;consequently cells are a billion times more complex than your pc.

I am a freshman in highschool and I am the only Christian in my little group. All of the rest are Jewish. I want to talk to them about Christianity and how Jesus is the son of God but I really dont know historical facts that prove it other that there was alot of sightings of him after his death even from non-believers. Thats all I really know. Does anyone know anymore good facts that could convince them?

The Pope was at an Orthodox communion during his visit to Turkey. The congregants each went up to the priest . He gave each one a spoonful of some kind of liquid which he took from a pitcher that he held, and then gave them a blessing.
Can you tell me what kind of liquid that was?

First of all I just want to say I have no views on it, some of my best friends are gay and I dont care, my question is, "where should I stand and why?"
I cannot argue in favour of gay people because simply saying each to their own isnt enough, I say this because peadophiles could say "each to their own" in the same vein, same as people practising incest and however many other crude things we find disgusting. So why is it ok to be gay? I need some GOOD answers so I can stick up for my friends if ever this argument comes around again, because they are good people whom I love, I just dont know how to argue in favour of them. I hope you all see where I'm coming from.

This is just a little observation: Why is it so difficult for some people to say "You're welcome" when somebody thanks them?
Sometimes people will acknowledge the thank you, but will say things like "No problem", "Sure" or even worse...they will give you an "Uh-huh."
I don't mean to offend anyone who does say "Uh-huh" but, I don't get it. I think it sounds rude. People should be more polite.

many times I find non-catholics who embrace anti-catholicism and present what they claim is the true gospel have a gospel interpretation that is constantly changing why is that? They tell in one debate Catholic Church isn't in the bible and than in another the exact opposite.
Also can anyone show me Baptist Church in the bible or Lutheran Church in the bible or SDA assembly hall in the bible?

This store left a huge thing of flowers in the gym and we wanted to mess with our teacher because she has been a total bi*tch lately. So we put a note on the flowers and put it on her desk. We pretended that the note was from her boyfriend asking her to marry him and meet him at this fancy restraunt. She came back a few hours later crying and yelling at everyone to find out who left the flowers. Now this guy is feeling bad and want to tell on us. How do we stop him. If we beat him up do you think he will still tell?
