"Now a man or a woman who is a medium or a spiritist shall surely be put to death. They shall be stoned with stones, their bloodguiltiness is upon them" - 27 Leviticus

I guess you will say that jesus said not to. Why did God change his mind? Why dont the jews kill him?

From time to time, I keep seeing this person glance out at their window to my window. I'm not sure if it's a girl or a guy or how old they are, but it's becoming very uncomfortable for me. What should I do? Please, i'm being serious or tell me your similar experiences.. I need an answer.

and stop being silly pricks.....Atheists have no one to respect. Christians do.....So stop being so immature and keep your opinions to yourselves........CHristianity is about love and tolerance isn't it?? God would be ashamed to see that his believers desperately keep trying to change someone else's mind....I think he'd be ashamed and be like,,,"eww, I'd rather her not be a "christian" ..I'm embarassed."

I've noticed that people are flattered to hear that someone said "you're cute" from a third party, but when you tell it to them first person they give kind of a strange reaction like they arent sure if i just insulted them or not. I'm not necessarily talking about "cute" like hitting on someone. I'm talking about I think your mannerisms are adorable or your personality is light and fun... I think its a compliment, but sometimes people react like I'm being condescending. Is it inappropriate to call anyone over the age of 15 cute?

If there was even a reasonable amount of the slightest proof of hell, it would be enough for most people to be good. Since it is utterly ridiculous (based on scientific evidence, no offense intended) to believe in hell, it has to be portrayed as a scary scary place, with eternal fire and gnashing of teeth, etc. Otherwise, no one would give it a second thought because it would be a ridiculous idea to them. As it stands, it is a ridiculous idea, but the fact that christians portray hell as such a scary and terrible place causes people to become religious in self defense, which is not a good reason to be religious at all. Especially since a truly omnipotent god would see through the bs.

Your thoughts...?

The more people not speaking English, the greater and faster our country fractures into ethnic enclaves separated from America.
If you can't understand someone, you can't talk to them. That creates confusion, conflict, prejudice and violence.

If they can't speak English, they won't become what it
means to be an American. We're being turned from the
successful 'melting pot' into a tension filled 'salad
bowl'.

We cannot teach our children and hope to
maintain academic standards if we allow millions of
foreign students to speak dozens of other languages.
It degrades education to the point of classroom chaos.

Each person is born in a religious environment that is not of his/her own choice. From the very beginning of human existence in this world, they are assigned the religion of their family or the ideology of the state. By the time individuals reach their teens they usually accept the beliefs of their parents or that of their particular society. However, when some people mature and are exposed to other beliefs and ideologies, they begin to question the validity of their own beliefs. Seekers of truth often reach a point of confusion upon realizing that believers of every religion, sect, ideology and philosophy all claim to have the one and only correct religion or ideology.

There are only three possibilities. They are either all correct; all wrong or only one is correct and the rest are wrong. They cannot all be right since all religions are different from each other in their fundamentals. Furthermore, the majority claim that they alone are correct and the rest are wrong. On the other hand, to claim that they are all wrong is to deny that God revealed His will to humankind. This proposition is absurd to those who believe in a Wise Creator. So, which religion is the right one and how can the seeker of truth know it?

In beginning one’s search for which religion is true, one should keep in mind four things in mind: First, God gave us abilities and intellects to make the crucial decision: WHAT IS THE TRUE RELIGION? Second, God, the Most Compassionate, did not leave us to go astray without any guidance. Indeed, He sent us prophets with scriptures to show us the right path. Third, seeking the true religion should be the most important thing in one’s life because the everlasting life to come depends on it.1 Fourth, one can determine the true path and make a rational and correct decision only if emotions and prejudices, which often blind one to reality, are put aside.
