Society & Culture - 15 December 2006

Because of certain holiday plans, my family is spending Christmas morning in a hotel near my sister's house. Her home is small, and she shares it with a roommate -- so staying there is a no go. However, how do we make the hotel a little more festive without stepping outside the hotel guidelines? Waking up in a typical box hotel room is anything but merry. Help!

it is said that even one has some qualities he/she has to work hard to be master of something. Is it also with the Buddha-nature? Do we have to study and pray hard to achieve Buddhahood?

My 4 year old has recently asked why Jesus has died on the cross. We told her because he loved us, but that didn't seem to satisfy her. How can we explain it in a way that she'll understand at this age?

Don't point fingers. Just consider your own part in the bloodshed. In the name of god, look what you have done?

What does this indicate about your religion? I ask Jews, Christians, Muslims. How beautiful can your religion be if it generates mayhem?

I have made my own Christmas creations, decorated the house, listen to the music and still the Christmas emotions are at bay. I usually get that wonderful, warm feeling after it has passed, and then it's TOO LATE! any suggestions on how I can conjure some fuzzy warm Christmas feelings? BTW, Happy Holidaze to everyone!

I've seen several Q/As that state that YHWH is misspelled or mispronounced as Jehovah. What the people who write this don’t seem to understand is the Hebrews never called Jesus, well....Jesus. Or Jehovah....well Jehovah.

The English name “Jesus,” which later employed the letter “J,” is a derivation from Greek “Iesous” and the Latin “Iesus” version.
In fact, there was no letter ‘J’ in any language prior to the 14th century in England. The letter did not become widely used until the 17th century.
Note in the original 1611 version of the King James Version of the Bible there was no “J” letter in this Bible for because it did not exist. James was spelled Iames. Jesus was spelled Iesous.

“In Late Latin Jesus was original spelled Iesus; In Greek it was spelled Ièsous; and in ancient Hebrew spelled “yÈshÙa,” which is a contraction of yehÖshÙa, meaning "helper of Jehovah." (yÀh, Jehovah + hÖshïa, to help.)

Yes I know that the "burden of proof is on proving he does"....maybe.
But you cannot actually prove that God doesn't exist-and still people say that he doesn't.
Shouldn't we be more open-minded and at least leave for a POSSIBILITY of the existance of God at the very least?

lol
i like the question. because it infers that there is a true religion. and of course everyone believe they have the truth.

I would say join the jehova witnessess or the mormon church.

the mormon church is better than they all!
but in some places its worse then any fundamental church at the same time.

technically! you should not ASK anyone what church to join. You should ask God in prayer and fasting and be sincere to receive the answer.
once you receive an answer you must deliberate on the "source" of the answer if you ever receive one! Satan and all his fallen angels like to form false churches and demi gods as long as it detours your soul from worshipping and finding the true God.
Dont join the church of the Pink Bunny!

i dont know it just sounds GAY.

This is a historical fact. This is not intended as a jab at Christians. I really want to know how you feel about that fact. Do you think they should change the name of that bible?
