How do we define humanity? What is a human being? What does God's Word reveal about what humanity is AND, what do philosopers from time immemorial define humanity, know of any definition they have thought of?

If God is the only one who can see the heart, then how can we even begin to judge others justly?

I know that "Que" means what, but I'm not sure if it should be used in the same way or if that would be considered rude.

I am looking for a Christmas gift for a friend of mine who is Lutheran. I know she goes to Church and whatnot and I saw this gorgeous handpainted nativity scene in a little shop in my town. I'm Catholic and have always displayed a Nativity scene in my home. Unfortunately I'm a little in the dark about other faiths' practices. Is this something that people of the Lutheran faith normally display during the Christmas/Advent season? Thanks!

I was raised a Christian but since 99 I have had come to a conclusion that our planet has been around for billions of yrs & that it was not waiting 4 the arriving of a man. That is just 2 Sci Fi 4 me but there has to me more to us than just carbon. I've had 2 experiences with the paranormal. We live in a house where 2 girls (sisters) killed themselves & a family of 4 died leaving the drive way by a dump truck. The both times it happened in our bed. The 1st I was woke by my husband (who I thought was him) he was illuminated in a bright blue light & was sitting up in bed smiling @ me. He then nodded to me towards our baby daughter who was 3 @ the time I looked over @ her & she was covered up in a comforter. I got her out of it & looked back @ him. He was sound asleep so I sat up in bed so I wouldn't go right back to sleep passing this off as a dream. 2nd time I was woke by a push or something I looked up & a little boy was smiling @ me while riding on my husbands back like a bull.

people, stop being so brainwashed. obviously, everyone is searching for the answers. if you aren't, you probably deserve to go to your medieval hell you've painted. stop being this way. my dad had me brainwashed with all this catholic stuff, until he let me out into the real world. if you look at it, the atheists are right: what good does it do to watch the 700 club and go to bible studies when millions die of easily preventable deases everyday. and why would god allow any of this to happen. obviously, he's not the big happy face you paint. he has his own agenda (if he exists) and we're a small part of it. stop being mindless conformists and stand up for yourselves. what do you think about this?

I have an English paper that I have to do, and I am arguing for the use of Native American mascots. Does anyone have any arguments for the use of Native American mascots? The ones I have so far are:
- The use of mascots have been approved by some tribal leaders.
- Names such as the Seminoles, or the Braves aren't offensive. They are just names. Some have even argued that Warrior is an offensive Native American name. Why??
- The mascots are not intended for insulting the Native Americans, but rather to represent their strength and celebrate their culture.

Thanks for any opinions that you may provide.

I wish the blacks would not feel that way. Although they were taken from their native countries, would any of them choose to go back? I love black people and wish nothing less than for them to prosper in this country. They have the opportunity to seek that out in this country what many new immigrants are still comng to this country for. Please...if you are black and reading this...know that you are loved and not resented. You are welcome. Just don't seek to separate yourself from great great great great great great granchildren of the people who brought you here. I love you all. Please don't separate yourself from us. Let's live together.

Why do you call yourself Christian?

Catholics worship, not just "hold high in esteem" as you say you do about Mary! (and) saints....we are NOT to pray to a dead person PERIOD! How can confessing to MAN help you!?! Jesus tought us to pray boldly in HIS name....he didn't say; go to a priest and pray or confess to him first!... (JUST to name a few points)

J.W., you don't even beleive that Jesus is God! That IS the "basics" of being a Christian.

Is man the measure all things in an athiest world? Is osma bin laden only evil in America, but since he is a hero in parts of the middle east does that make him good too? So morals and virtues are dictated by society? My real question is how does an athiest know if anything is right or wrong because absolute truth can not exsist in a relative world?

Think about the Pope putting himself in the place of Jesus. He also led people away from God and said that he was not God. At one point he had people kissing him and he touched babies heads like he was Christ. Also, he wore the colors (scarlet and red) all the time as described in the Book of Revelations. He loves to be praised and often wore clothes that showed off his status. Think about it. The pope of the papatry of the roman empire was the first beast! We are in the end times! And the USA is ill explain later
