At work, all we hire are stupid, lazy people with two brain cells at best! At school I stare at people when they talk because they say the stupidest things, even some of the teachers! Am I totally a prejudiced elitist (I know I am to some extent)?

I am in a gift exchange that has a specific theme. I need to provide a gift for a women in her 50's that would fit in a bottle. It doesn't matter what type of bottle it is. I don't want to give her alcohol but want something different. Any thoughts?

I have comitted a very minor sin (in my eyes, god does not define it as a sin) multiple times, and i have asked several times for forgiveness. If i really desire to repent from this sin and start fresh, do you think god would forgive me, and how could i go about repenting? Please help. Thank you.
(PS I am not going to share what this sin is, so please do not ask. It is in no violation of the law)

Because religious people, including Christians, Jews, Catholics, Muslims basically believe that we will be judged by God and the Christian bible says not to judge others if you have sinned -everyone is a sinner and needs saving! And it's believers in God that still need help and should help others want to be saved isn't it? No one has the right to look down on oter religions of similar or I suppose otherwise beliefs. what do you think?
I believe in God by the way!

one of the main reasons why christianity survives well enough in this modern era is that ........

most all christians cannot, for one second, percieve that atheism or skepticism can be brought on by earnest, spiritually truth-seeking individuals.

although given the option to see things that way, they tell themselves that that kind of thought is satan's tool to draw people away from God and that those people are lost "in satan's lies."

it is one reason most christians don't want to concern themselves with the idea that christianity might not be true.

they were brought up to believe in christianity, and they have no particular reason why they would feel they need to question the faith themselves. and it becomes especially convienent the christianity decares such thought from satan, anyways.

like, the urge to yell out "scrotum!!!" during a serious large business meeting, or a religious service? Have you ever been just on the verge of doing so and thought, I might not be able to hold myself back?

I belive in God and Jesus, but God knew what would happen to people and what they would do as he is God! so why did he bother?
I mean Jesus died for everyone: Why should he have? People need him nowadays as some don't even belive in him! And God knew who would be evil and God created everything including evil, why?

I ask because if you have, then you understand what it's like making fun of a religious icon you don't believe in.

So, have you? Do you feel guilty about mocking Hinduism's sacred animal?

Jesus himself said to not judge, but to love and not judge those who are different from you. As with the story of the Samaritan and the Jew. Two totally different peoples who had had many arguments and practically had a history of hate against each other.
