I have been really confused and undecided on which way to go in my life. Please pray for me and ask God to help me find my way and to help me keep peace and to keep my faith of confidence in Christ.

I have to write an "exegetical" paper for my New Testament class. I have to choose a segment of the New Testament, like a chapter or few verses, and write on the possible interpretations, and things like that.

What would make a good paper topic?

My lover wants me to slap him real hard in the face, then spit on him as we both climax...he says it will be a 'bonding' exercise, but to me it borders on abuse...

Every once in a while, I see a question about a person who is questioning their sexuality, and without fail there is some religious whacko jumping in and saying, "You shouldn't do that, it's forbidden by god."

What justification does the religious people have in interjecting their faith on others even when it's obvious that the others have no interest in religion. If I want to go out and Fvck a man, I'm not going to stop myself because I'm worried about what god thinks of the whole thing.

Did we evolve or were we Created.
According to Darwinism the planet is billions of years old.
According to Creatism the planet is 7500 Years old.
So what do you think?

i hope i'm not offending anyone... this part of the bible cought my attention... your son of god is actually one of the islam prophet.. how can your son of god are written in the Quran.. and the Quran even mention the bible(injil).. hoho this is interesting.. in the Quran and the bible didn't mention they were enemies...

one question that has been spinning in my brain since last night... it kept me awake till now.. how can a god have a son? did god fu(k human? if so we are Jesus sibblings rite? if Jesus is the son of god why he's killed? god have the almighty power rite? just smite the enemies.. why didn't he/she do that? and your god is a man?

i'm not being ignorant.. i just want answers.. Quran didn't mention about their god offsprings.. and then there's a quote in the Quran made me trembling... "Know yourselves before you get to know me"... it mention all the things.. about the moon, about the outerspace and further..

"Moreover He comprehended in His design the sky, and it had been (as) smoke: He said to it and to the earth: 'Come ye together, willingly or unwillingly.' They said: 'We do come (together), in willing obedience.' So He completed them as seven firmaments in two Days, and He assigned to each heaven its duty and command. And We adorned the lower heaven with lights, and (provided it) with guard. Such is the Decree of (Him) the Exalted in Might, Full of Knowledge. (The Noble Quran, 41:11-12)"


And


"Do not the Unbelievers see that the heavens and the earth were joined together (as one unit of creation), before we clove them asunder? We made from water every living thing. Will they not then believe? (The Noble Quran, 21:30)

I don't see the point in having bail. Why should you be able to buy your way out of a crime that you committed?

How is it fair that a poor person has to stay in jail for the time sentenced because they can't afford bail but a rich person who can afford it can just pay it and act like it never happened? Why not just get rid of it completely and make people stay in jail for the time they were sentenced and the time they deserve no matter their financial status. Just because they have money doesn't mean they should be exempt from what they did in my opinion.

Just thinking about it, and wondering what your thoughts were or how bail even got started? Thanks.

Do you let your mind remain open to other possibilities, or are you so sure of your beliefs that nothing phases you?

By underage, I mean if you're not considered an adult in your country? Like, let's say you're 15 and you'd only be an adult when you're 21...can you convert to Judaism if you're 15?

just curious!

Look, Pat cracks me up. He is a constant source of entertainment. However, I've noticed he likes to make predictions a lot. In the history of Christianity, isn't 'scrying' or making claims to forsee the future something that was associated with witches? Just wondering here.

Hi, i just wanted to say, that all we hear in the media about Afghanistan is negative stuff, as an Afghan what do you like about your country, I know we all have our bad points, but lets think positive, for example the poems, songs, food, the diverse people, l culture, landscape etc, and i love Afghan girls.

If you read the financial report of the Yum! Brands, you will see that there is no growth; people are tired of this unhealthy food. But in China growth is 26% and Yum is opening a KFC every 22 hours. The ugly restaurants are changing the character of Chinese cities, and they hurt the business of small, wonderful family restaurants. What do you think about this?

So I got this voice mail after my phone was off for a few days and it was this girl saying..."I got a call from this number..and idont want you to call me anymore like because i dont know you so dont call again. You called me at like midnight. ok bye."

Ugg weirdo... So if i get a call from a number i dont know and they dont leave a voice mail i dont call the number back and leave a rude message.

What do you do? Do you call the number back and leave a rude voice mail or say nicely that it was a wrong number or do you ignore it?
