I am a youth mentor..have several Emo kids.... I know they are great people...but I dont completely understand how to relate to their emo status..... I am trying to understand the essence of your choice to be emo, and what fuels your emotion.

doesn't treat herself very welll emotionally and is a born again Christian. I would like to be able to show her some Bible verses
that show that that is part of being a good Christian also. She knows that her body is a temple and treats it that way, but she doesn't take care of her emotional self very well. I told her that God wants her to love herself but she was doubtful. She would only believe it if I can show her from the Bible.
Thank you very much.

I am a United States Patriot and will not tolerate other countries. We are here to dominate the rest of the world whether they like it or they dont. We know their weaknesses and I know we dont have any.

I asked, because a lot of people I know think so. I think it has to do with what enviroment you live in. Like, where I live, black people can be big bullies. In in urban neighborhood actually. I don't know about the suburbs or neghborhoods that aren't populated with black people. I can't control what people think, but to me bullies are bullies, and because a lot of black people are bullies in the places I've seen, doesn't make me like them less. Just like in politics and goverment issues, white people are bullies(what a lot of people think) doesn't make me like a white person less. Or that whole Puerto Rican, Dominicans, Columbians hating Mexicans thing. That goes on a lot too. Even in other countries. What do you think about this and other views on a race being a bigger bully? I do come to find that even the conversation on racism, black people are the first to jump and point fingers, or get affended. But we make jokes, comments about other races that would be considered a racial slur

Why are christians so proud of
1)the bible and thus quote directly from it , even though it was written by men so is riddled with lies

2) if adam and eve were the first and only humans then their children must have resorted to incest in order to increase population sizes to what they are today,and must have enjoyed it since there are so many of them now.

3) why believe the bible how could noah fit so many animals from so many diffrent environments on to his boat

Before the movie "Van Helsing" with Hugh Jackman and Kate Beckinsale came out, I had heard of Van Helsing, who I understood was a self-proclaimed vampire hunter. Does anybody know if this guy really existed, or is he just a legend/myth?

This past Valentine's Day weekend, I went on a small trip with my bf (of 2.5 months then) and skipped out on my best friend's (of 10+ years) b-day party. I felt terrible about it. Was I wrong in doing that? I celebrate my friend's b-day with her later by taking her out to dinner.

Please answer the following questions:
1) How can you have free will if God already knows what you will do?

2) If you are good you go to heaven when you die. Why are most believers afraid of death or why do they suffer when someone good dies?

3) If Seth was the third child of Adam and Eve, and Cain married bbefore Seth was born; then who did Cain marry?

4) If Adam and Eve were the first people on earth, then how did we get all the other races?

5) Why has God or Jesus never healed an amputee?

Lately I have been lucky about meeting people from other countries where their main religion was not Christian/Muslim/Jewish. Some religious people are trying to introduce them into Christianity... So they were telling me they have found similar stories on their religion I just have arriived to the conclusion that whoever wrote the bible borrowed their stories from earlier religions Now . What I want if someone who had already study this sort of plagiarism, could point to me to the right links ...example it is said that Jesus walked on the waters (no new it had been done by other person before) Jesus got upset and kicked some people from a temple (done before) Creation of Adam and eve.... Universal flood... resurrecting the dead etc etc... and many more. Thanks to the internet the age of obscurantism is gradually disappearing

It boggles my mind that an otherwise fairly intelligent person can have no faith in a well studied and proven scientific theory, i.e. evolution, but then have faith in a supernatual being that controls all things in the universe, sun, earth, life, death, with his mind. How can this happen? Shouldn't people who live their lives solely on the basis of faith, allow some of that faith to be carried over to well respected scientific beliefs?

Isn't it hypocritical for people of faith who deny evolution to completely change their minds about the authenticity of scientific facts when it comes to medical science? "Sure I'll take this medicine that was provided by scientific research because it will save my life, but I reject other scientific research when it is inconvenient to my religion!"

When I see people pray in groups, I see people just wanting to get attention. NO one will ever take the right to prayer away from you if you just stop.

This word we do not understand on Maok'Wa. We have no word to compensate that meaning in our language. A sense of control or bondage is picked up telepathically even when Humans speak passionately and enthusiastically about "religion". What are the benefits and drawbacks? What have you learned from it? Why do Humans destroy eachother over it?
