Someone replied to one of my questions so it spawned this question and this reply.
Yes, i too, loved sex, so i guess im called a fornicator.
When i first became a christian, and was studying the bible and found the word fornication, i didnt know what it meant so i went to the dictionary.
I was very disappointed, because i had just lost my virginity 6 months before so I Argued with God in my prayers.
Of course I had to submitt to the commandments of God and having witnessed an Angel appearing in my room and later Seeing the Glory of Jesus christ, I know how much it means to keep the commandments.

One of the top Catholic bishops of Scotland, accused the UK of being anti-catholic. In some respects I see his point, the Orange order etc and problems at the the football matches (esp.old firm).

But haven't we all been a victim of someone taking a dislike to us, cause eithier cause we are Muslim, Jewish, Disabled or other reason? Discrimating on ANY grounds is wrong.

I myself was refused a university funding based on the fact I was not Catholic, which I was offended by - but I did not snitch on him cause it was a sad situation. Everyone in the uni thought it was wrong - in fact I had many pals (many of whom were Catholic) threaten to go up to the guy's office and give him a good talking too!

The way I see it is that you can be discrimated in life on many differient grounds. I don't think Catholics have been singled out for special treatment, which is what this bishop was implying. What do you think?

And why are they threatened by people that don't or choose not to compete for attention? Theirs or anyone elses attention? I ask because I want people's opinions from experience, if any. Seems this country promotes the idea of competing for attention. Such as reality and dating shows...

I've got a homework assignment in English focused around Native American legends. The catch is it has to have something to do with Canadian Culture. Another is that the story has to be approved by my teacher. The problem is, is that I'm already late in handing this assignment in, and the story I had approved by my teacher is by the Aleut peoples. Now as far as I can tell the Aluet peoples don't have anything to do with Canadian Culture, and are from Alaska. Is there anyway I can connect them? If not, I'll just live with the extra docked marks; choosing another 1st Nations Legend isn't really an option.

Why do muslims pray facing mecca? Why? Is allah ONLY at mecca? If allah is all over the place, why can't muslims pray in ANY direction???

Obviously, there MUST be something at mecca that muslims are praying to. Do you know what it is? I understand its that stone in the ka'aba.

So, muslims are praying to that stone idol all this while!

Please provide sensible answers and don't say you're not worshipping it despite you fellas kissing it, spending tons of money visiting it, and talking to it everyday. If that is not worship, then what is? You fellas need a jab.

Do you quote Paul? Have you allowed Paul to change Jesus' message? Why do you not quote Jesus, (in context)?

Can you go to Heaven if God has not forgiven you of your sins?

How do you get forgiven of your sins? Do you think confessing your sins gives you forgiveness from God?

Paul and the early church leaders said yes. Jesus said "No".

Are you teaching your children that their sins are forgiven by simply confessing them?

If yes, then you are in direct conflict with the words of Jesus.

Jesus taught that there was only one way for God to forgive your sins. If you don't know that way, how can you call yourself a Christian?
