Or would you put your trust in God's plan? It seems to me that if you claim to have faith in God, having surgery would be a direct contradiction to your supposed faith.
If you choose to put your life in science's hands when it really matters, will God forgive you? Will you go to Heaven?
What is your justification for asking help from science when you claim it to be untrue and evil?

The perfect relation ship is build on Love. Within that love, how does the order in which things happen matter? If both have the feeling it's an eternal love, why would it matter to God if they first make love, and then get married?

Take me as an example. I'm a Dutch atheist, my girlfriend is a Romanian Christian. Currently we live in her country, and we plan to get married, as soon as have found a country that suits us in raising our children in the English language. We speak English to eachother, and wanna raise our kids in that language.

In Romanian visa laws, it can take a year or two before we are able to leave here. Silly, but true. We don't wanna get married here, but we are eachothers meaning in life. Of course we make love. My girlfriend is a Christian who uses logic to make most of her decisions.

So, why are God's morals so black and white? I simply fail to see that.

If we can have ventilated smokers' lounges, then why not a place for everyone to vent in safety?

To contain one's wind is unhealthy and potentially dangerous; a farting room would be a like a breath of fresh air to the office, or other enclosed public place.

What do you think of a provision of ventilated farting rooms in larger workplaces or other public places?

Why did alot of people die a horrible death in the OT??

Because G-d loves YOU. He clearly shows how much it will suck to be judged by Him. The OT countlessly shows the difference between G-d's blessings and G-d's judgements. Does it make perfect sense to a human? No...

BUT...He sent His Son Jesus in the NT to help you be saved from judgement. All you have to do is say YES, Jesus paid my price......easiest decision ever. He made it as easy as possible. His judgement is clear. Choose Blessing!

What have you done with this easy choice? Reject or Accept.

Its a one word answer.

Think about this...they are the ones who want to cover up the missing link....if the secret of god's falsehood came out, it would be an enormous blow to any society.

For instance, Because the Apostles were gathered on a traditional Jewish feast (Sabbath) day on the first day of the week (Sunday), the Feast Day being Pentecost ( meaning 50th) which was the conclusion of Passover; Most Christians conclude that the God established Saturday Sabbath is no longer in effect. Yet God clearly states this Sabbath is forever, and punishes the world for forsaking HIS Sabbath during the judgement period of Earth during the last days. WHO IS MAN TO CHANGE GOD"S SABBATH ???

JOHN 5:16 So on this account the Jews went persecuting Jesus, because he was doing these things during Sabbath. 17 But he answered them: “My Father has kept working until now, and I keep working.” 18 On this account, indeed, the Jews began seeking all the more to kill him, because not only was he breaking the Sabbath but he was also calling God his own Father, making himself equal to God.

their medical problem goes away, do you give the credit to the doctor and the SCIENCE that he used to cure the patient, or do you claim it was an answered prayer from God and it was just coincidence that God answered the patient's prayer at the same time as they received surgery?

Is OK to use this "moral" (or immoral) concept in animals but not in humans. Why?

Disclaimer: this question in no way represents anything I believe regarding transsexualism. I ask only because I saw another user suggest that transsexualism is against God's law so I wanted to ask the community at large if they consider this true.

If you answer "yes", please cite Biblical passages to support your position. Be specific, please. I don't want vague or generalized passages.

Thank you.

I'm an Indian teenager who is growing up in the United States, so I was just wondering if anyone could provide any personal imput about Hindu philosophy or any good links that explains some of the philosophy. More than anything, I'm interested in learning about some of the values and observations about the world that Hinduism presents, and also, its application to everday American society, if possible.

Thanks again for taking the time!

Question do you see here? It seems that many different people are seeing what they want to and really not looking at the facts placed before them. Why does it always seem that those who answer with attacks are those who don't see the whole picture and the tone and content of their answers reflects the same narrow view. Answer right and recieve 10 pts.

I would like to know ESPECIALLY on the subjects in books regarding astrology, maybe paganism, anything mystical (tarot perhaps) that they may believe were destroyed in these (this fire) in Rome? Was the Alexandria library in Rome?

so i was with this guy.
we went form being good friends to not being able to keep our hands off eachother. we decided to cool it for a while. since we decided to cool it hes been hostile towards me.

i have asked him over and over what the issue is and he does not have a coherent plausible reason.

my friend says i should leave it alone and that im being egocentric. that the only reason why i care whats going on with him is b/c its affecting me. she also said that for me to keep pushing for an answer would make things worse.

i feel like weve been through too much for any aspect of our relationship to come down to this. i belive i deserve an answer. what do you all think?
