In other words, why is the first or second question after being introduced is "what do you do for a living"? Some of us consider such a question to be very personal, and quite offputting to be asked, especially when saying "none of your business" isn't an option.

Example: I was introduced by phone to my brother's new girlfriend and she went on to ask me this question. I happen to be unemployed at the moment, because I chose to get married and move to my husband's country, where at the moment I'm not allowed to work, but ultimately I shouldn't have to explain that to someone I just met. I prefer to know them better before I do.

After all, what if I was chronically unemployed, a prostitute, on welfare or disability or any other status that a lot of people do condemn with minimal knowledge of the circumstances?

I would like to see if someone can help me come up with a reply that politely tells the asker how inappropriate their question is without offending them.

Ok So God directly influenced the men to write the Bible. He told them what to write, right?


Am I the only who thinks that maybe that's not the full story? That maybe the men just wrote what they thought was not, and told him, that it was the words of god.

I mean, supposdly it says that Gay is wrong. That Gay people are sinners, and what not. Don't you think that God would love all his children?

when even Jesus forbids it...........


Jesus said prayer should be a private affair devoid of public display: "And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites; for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by men. Truly, I say to you they have received their reward. But when you pray, go into your room (or closet.) and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret...

Q: How many Pagans does it take to change a light bulb?

A: 6, 1 to change the bulb and 5 to argue about how the bulbs never burnt out before the damned Christians came along!


I thought it was funny! What do you think?

Mind you that music in general sound great - but reggae stands out when one is stoned.

Could 666 be DCLXVI?
Standing for:
Domitanus Caeser Legatos Xti Violenter Interfecit.
Translated from the Latin:

Domition Caeser is violently killing the envoys of Christ?
Making it a contempory warning of dangers to the early Christains and not a prophesy as is commonly believed today?

Do you believe these nice people who are nice all the time have motives?

and not just God himself? Do we need to be saved if we just come to the conclusion that we are not perfect and just strive to want to be better? Did Christ die for me, because I don't remember asking him to do that? its nice that he did, but he did'nt have to

that just because i believe that God is a scientific force, rather than some anthropomorphic diety, that I am an atheist. I believe that God work's its magic through science, I don't think it doesn't exist!!!!

Okay, I get that the original sin was Eve eating the apple, and then Adam followed suit. I get that this was a sin against God. However, I have trouble with the idea that we are all guilty of this as well. How is their sin genetic?

For instance, if one's father commits murder...that is a crime against God too, as it is against a commandment. However, the child of that father is not considered guilty of it.

Could someone explain to me how I am guilty of eating the apple if "my ancestor" did it, not me?

(Not trying to be offensive. I just don't get it.)
