Society & Culture - 7 January 2007

okay, so heres the deal. I am still a young teen and i have a feeling i may be bi, but, i 'm not sure. I have found my self thinking about girls in that sort of manner. Is this normal for my age? i guess just, wondering about your orientation? If i am bi, i have no trouble confronting myself, its just the way i am, and i can't change it! so , i should just be happy with what god gave me. also, is natural to be curious about sex? because, some of my friends are, and im not sure if i sould be too???

thank you for all your help. I can use all the help i can get!

nowhere in my bible does it say strap on explosives to my chest and eliminate all those that differ with my opinions.
My beliefs say to love everyone and let live but it is hard to do that when there are people that want to kill me and my family because we are not part of their religion!
I call that madness.

In Jewish prophecy, will the Messiah fill the role of High Priest, or will somebody else be instituted as High Priest?

I thought they were like some people like me and you, who believe
in Jesus.Just because they don't celebrate holidays,it doesn't mean that these are "Unchristian" like most people would say.For those who believe in god,god did not say "You have to celebrate Christmas
to believe in god.All of the s--- that Ive learned about most people,is that they judge what they don't know or understand.I'm not one of those people,but if they believe in god even if it's the wrong religion or right religion,who gives a f---?!

Adam was the first man, right?
Eve was the first woman, correct?
They had two kids, Cain, and the Undertaker...I mean Abel.

The Bible says that Cain and Abel took wives.

This means that the family God created to show us how much he loves us was a murderous, incestuous and totally dysfunctional. You do the math, dear. Let's just say that that apple was not the last forbidden thing that troublesome trollop Eve put in her mouth!

What the real world is like? You'll hear more about what Paris Hilton did at a nightclub, than how many people are dying in Dafur at the water cooler.

Are americans in denial? I know we're not just clueless.

It is said in the Bible that Lucifer was JEALOUS of God...So does that mean there is Human emotions in Heaven? also what does the presence of emotions mean for the existence of Heaven?

Apparently sin is why we die. It kills us, so I've been told. HOW does it do that? Like... I understand how a heart attack kills and how Leukemia kills... could someone explain to me how sin kills?

I was engaged to be married at 17, but the wedding was called off, and some of the gifts we had recieved, the givers told me to keep (he had cheated on me.) I am now 20, moving in with someone, so would it be wrong to use the dishware that I recieved in this new relationship or should I go buy more?

I am a Black female.
There are many different shades and colors of Black people. It is a beautiful concept- God has created all of us to be unique and attractive in our own way. (He's God and he probably knows what he's doing.)
But it irritates me beyond belief when somebody (especially a Black person) says that he or she refuses to date or associate with a Black who is the wrong complexion. Doesn't that sound like self-hatred.
Anyways, I know that this is starting to sound kind of like a rant, but here's my question.
Has anybody else ever observed this problem or is it just me?

This is something I seriously don't understand. Please, Christians, enlighten me.

God is All-knowing. When somebody ask the question on here like "Why does God allow an innocent baby to have a disease?", most answers say it's our own fault for sinning, or it satan's fault, or human's screwed up the world. You know the sort of answers.

But God is All-knowing. He knew it would happen. He knew we would screw up or sin or listen to satan or whatever. The answer "free will" also makes completely no sense to me, an All-knowing God would still know what was going to happen.

So, does He allow to let it happen? Or does He choose to be less All-knowing than He is? Or isn't He All-knowing? Or? Or?

Really, I don't get it.

I know I'm not outstandingly tall, not at all, I'm only 5'8'', but I have experienced so many girls near or at six feet all in one place that it now has me curious. I don't normally pay attention to this stuff, but it seems like I'm seeing this more and more when I walk the streets or any public place in general. I even saw girls who were like 11 or something nearing that height, just unbelievable.

My theory? I can't say all girls are getting taller because that also depends on ethnic groups, and which group growth is more frequent.

I use my height as my measuring stick. I'm a 5'8 22 year old and I've encountered young women, where I only reach their neck. Maybe I'm just very short....beats me.

Have you ever had someone just blatantly just stare at you and you felt like they had been starring at you and you looked right at them and all of sudden locked eyes and just felt kind of creepy? And, after you stopped you didn't want to look at them?

If he could come back and see the church people (who have the temerity to call themselves "Christian"), what would be his reaction?

Their religion is nothing like the religion he had.

Moreover, they make him look like an idiot. If he actually could come back, what would he say? What would he do?

Church people are fond of saying that if you don't believe in Jesus, Jesus is not amused (not in those words); I myself would be even less amused by people making me look like an idiot, wouldn't that be a normal reaction?

They say he's coming back, but they ought to be glad he isn't.

What?

I am interested in learning what is in the Qu'ran. I can't find a copy anywhere. I've checked bookstores and our library. Is it that we as Americans don't want them on the shelves, or is it religiously forbidden for it to be printed in English?
I'm always curious to learn about other religions.
What are some other sources I can look at also????

i know that posting this in the religion section will get a lot of hateful answers, but i want you to think before answering.

i am pro-chice because i feel that every abortion situation is different.

for example: a 13 year old had sex with her boyfriend and got pregnant. she will have to quit school, depend on her parents to support her AND the baby, miss out on an important developement time for HER, most likely live off minimum wage for the rest of her life because of the time she missed in school. the boyfriend, being a teenage boy, freaked out, and refuses to support her and denied having sex with her.

or another scenario, a 26 year old, college grad, with a steady boyfriend and an above minimum wage job has sex with her boyfriend. she gets pregnant and wants to get rid of the baby. she could support it, her boyfriend is willing to get married and help her, and the baby would be born during a stable time in the parents' life.

who should get an abortion?
