Society & Culture - 29 December 2006

I'm not a Christian, so I don't believe that Heaven or Hell exist. But if I did, I would be extremely uncomfortable with the thought of spending all of eternity in a single place, doing one thing forever. I mean, eternity is a very, very, very long time. Human beings think 100 years is a long time, but that's not even a drop in the bucket compared to forever. I'm sure that worshipping God would be very amazing and exhilarating, but how could a person possibly do that -- or anything -- for millennia and millennia and millennia? Are there any Christians out there who are even a little concerned that they might not be able to stand being in one place forever, regardless of how awesome or fun or peaceful that place may be, and regardless of how much you want to go there? Or are you all completely secure and comfortable with that thought?

I direct this question to Christians, although anyone with something to add, feel free to do so.

if I have what I thought I wanted, but now, im not so sure that I want it anymore, and I still want something that it has become apparent I can't have, compiled with the fact that there is something new that I adore, and can have, but am not sure if I want it?

OKAY FIRST OFF DONT GIVE ME THIS BULLSHIT: he killed many so his execution was both necessary and just in that it was taped! he deserved life in prison. not only did they give him a free ticket to escape the hell he would have faced in life long sentence in prison, but they have contradicted thhemselves : he killed people so lets kill him? no human being has the right to take anothers life and then call it justice. whats different about execution? the fact that its a legal decision? execution is murder. point blank. im against the death penalty 100 percent if you couldnt tell so please dont sit here trying to explain the process, why it's in place, how it came to be, etc. i just want to know what your opinion is on it/ sadaam's execution. l8ter loves!

As the Bible says, another wrong does not excuse the original wrong.

Everywhere I turn people are saying terrible things about homosexual couples; it is really nerve wrecking because I want to live a normal life without anyone thinking twice about it.

So many times have I been warned not to mess with straight girls because it never works out. But how can I tell if a straight girl is really interested? I've always fallen for straight girls but I've been too scared to actually tell them. What should I do?

I am an atheist, and have religious friends who argue that abortion isn't right, or homosexuality isn't right, because God 'said so'. They offer no other reasoning other than that's how God meant for things to be, and I'm open to a lot Christian ideals (i.e., treating others as you would yourself), but would hate to be molded to believe in anything and everything God says I should.

I'm sure if God existed, he'd like us to act as the intelligent individuals we all are, and make up our own minds, figure out right and wrong, etc., etc.

If you've been raised Christian, are you ever allowed to reevaluate your beliefs, disagree with some Christian principles, and still remain a Christian?

If so, why doesn't Jesus lead by example? Why does he murder innocent children and then say "Do as I say, not as I do."? I ask this question to those that believe in the trinity doctrine, though anyone is welcome to answer.

Someone in another question had this to say about the bible:

"Cover to cover - God shows His love for us
I have read it word for word..."

If they had read it word for word and still thinks it shows god's love for humans they weren't paying much attention. What about that little part where he favors one family and utterly murders every single living thing on the planet?!

People say that you can find true morality in the bible. If it is in fact moral to murder those that you love, they may have a point. Otherwise all i can say about the bible is the majority of what it displays is utterly reprehensible.

To my knowledge, most islanders in the South Pacific Ocean, do not embrace Christianity, and "normally" hold other religious/spiritual beliefs. Is this correct? So I was surprised to read that in Samoa, 98% of the residents have accepted christianity as their belief and faith.

Does anyone know how and when Christianity was first introduced to that country, or what was the popular belief before Samoans converted? As the Bible says, "The Good News about the Kingdom will be preached throughout the whole world, so that all nations will hear it; and then, finally, the end will come." Matthew 24:14

The word is being preached in small villages, distant islands, and even in countries where idol worship is usually most popular. This is great news!! Everyone will have had the opportunity to hear the truth, and eventually choose the narrow and wide road. :)

What is wrong with people? Yes the man is insane but God gave him life. You cannot just take the lives of others like that. And I know that he has done a lot of that himself BUT just because someone has done something horrible doesn't give you that right. He has done some terrible things and deserves to be punished. Simply give him life sentence!
Don't hang him and kill him! Nobody deserves to die no matter how horrible a person they are.
God will deal with them later!
