Why is it that when anyone brings up religion, all defenders, and opposers alike, have to attack the asker with all these verses, and quotes from their bibles, and preach to no end? No matter how lightly the question is meant to be taken, people just don't know how to control themselves. They want to push their beliefs onto other people, even when its completely obvious that these other people do not give a rat's patootie about them? Why must every religion-related statement or question, no matter how indirectly, elict a fight?Why is everyone so heavily obsessed with religion? Its seems to me that it's harming you more than it's helping you.Think about it - almost half the world's problems are religion-related! Even division amongst people who are unable to accept others' beliefs ends up more serious than anyone could've guessed.
Now i know people will do just that, picking on small details and bombarding me with things like "its not half, its 49.99%!"
Please take this seriously.

Okay so, I'm a bi male, and i've recently decided i like guys better, and have had several flings with guys BUT none of them ever actually thought of me as relationship material and never took me seriously, but they would be willing to have sex with me all the time...which kinda bothered me, i couldnt figure that out until one of my friends told me its because of the way i look. I'm tan and have platinum bleached blonde hair, and i wear bright blue contacts (i have vision problems, its not JUST to color my eyes lol) and have my tongue pierced. Now i've heard in the straight community, guys who see a GIRL that has all that as just a peice of a$$, but is it the same way with boy/boy? Cause my friend seems to think of it like that, but im not quite sure if its the same type of thing? So im asking if gay or bi guys who see another boy who looks like that, as just sex? LMAO i know this is a weird question but i wanna know if thats what the reason is...?

I say Jesus has a great laugh and sense of humor.
Jesus stands about 6ft to 6ft1
And has hairy arms
Not a bad looking guy
Very large holes in his hands and feet...those nails were big.
His virtues emitting through his robe, look like many diamonds.
God in body form... at the throne Jesus walks into God, love like you never seen....... and he comes out and walks among his people in heaven.

What do you see, perhaps we all see him differently, the desires of our heart perhaps?

I want to know the truth...

Too many people have the wrong idea of what it means to serve Christ.

Jesus came to save the world not to condemn it. I have noticed way to many of us passing judgment on others. Expecially with homosexuals and non believers. I do not permit nor condon such acts yet I love them all the same and would help any I could. According to the bible all sins are equal in the eyes of God save one, Blasphemy.
Did you forget the Second commandment of God? "Love thy neighbor as thy self." We should try to help those in sin not condemn them and persicute them

Please my friends remember this scripture

"For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved" John 3:17

May our lord God be with you

Size 10 and larger Brazilian bikini/bikini bottoms are henceforth BANNED.

This BAN insures that men scrutinising ladies' bottoms are not overcome with nausea, severe vomiting, dry-retching, motion-illness, extreme newfound-homosexuality, optic-celluliteosis (eye condition caused by excess dimpled wobbly skin movements) &permanent blindness.

There shall be a new legal limit on female bottom widths and depth of the cheek-crease- anything exceeding the average man's hand width and depth is strictly prohibited and punishable by several hours of public spanking.
This New Law is in place to eliminate false reportage of stranded marine mammals and wanton displays of detachment from reality.
This new law is punishable by charge of the criminal Offense of Public Visual ASSault and Grievous Bodily Misattire.

Thankfully, beaches shall now be free from women from assaulting us with their enormous behinds. The US & most of Europe shall soon follow, but equine-arsses remain endemic to the US.

I meant to say prayer but the line did not have enough room for me to ad anything else. Anyway are you finding your spiritual journey getting harder? Is this because we are in the last days, and Satan is working harder to steal our joy? I believe that. How many of you Christians feel spiritually flat as a tack? I do, and I feel it is getting harder for me. Just curious, what do you do when you feel flat? Does it sometimes feel the holy spirit is gone,? it does to me.And can God take the holy spirit away?I feel the world is now very stale to me, how about you?.

you won't forget( as in leaving you behind an emotional scarce) or actively seek out the truth become its friend rather than enemy? The way I see it, we can't escape truth. Either we are with it gracefully or with it forcefully.

Has anyone got an answer as to why kids of today are so idle and selfish? Is it their parents fault for waiting on them hand and foot? Is it because this is a must have society, where kids demand, and get, everthing they want? Are we breeding a generation who won't be able to fend for themselves because they don't know how? Just out of interest, how much did you spend on your kids this Christmas?

2006-12-31 20:50:00 · 28 answers · asked by Yumi 1 in Religion & Spirituality

who is morally superior?
Is anyone really?
Is one who sets their own standards & chooses their own path in this life really morally inferior to one who has decided their path has already been chosen & must walk through this life guided by some transcendental entity.
I say I am no less moral than anyone I am however guided by conscious and my own willpower to resist temptations that I myself have chosen to be wrong whether they be by law or in your so called book of morels Does that make me any different than you if you have chosen to be rewarded by heaven and eternal after life where as I make my own decisions in life based on no reward at all, a peaceful death & nothing more. Although I would have to say I was born with a gift of enormous willpower many I have noticed do not posses and must use other outside reasons to make a morel decision or many choices in life

all seriousness aside; hahaahahahahaha

Have you ever seen/ read a question here, only to gasp and ask yourself that?

Sub-question:

What are some of the more bizarre, mind-boggling questions you have seen?

I'm not so much referring to the offensive ones. I'm referring more to those that:

Have been asked to death.

Are so overtly simple that it makes you wonder.

Etc, etc.

An example of such a question would be: 'What is a good song to listen to?'

No offense, but - what's that about?! A trick question?

(Note: Just in case people find my question bizarre - I'll take that as a compliment. LOL.)

If no waves arise, water will settle of itself.

If no shadows cross it, the mirror will naturally be bright.

Thus, the heart cannot be made pure, for if one but avoids muddying elements, purity will appear on its own.

Thus, joy should not necessarily be sought after, for if one but avoids those things that cause suffering,

Joy will exist on its own.
