Society & Culture - 24 January 2007

I often feel uncomfortable with using the word please at the end of a question especially if I use 'may I' or 'could I' at the beginning of it. I always say thankyou afterwards, but have always felt 'may I' to be an acceptable replacement for 'please.' Am I being rude?

Is the Sabbath part of the old covenant? Is Sunday which is the Lord's day part of the new covenant?
Jesus arose of the first day of the week. Pentecost was on the first day of the week. People brought their tithes and offerings on the first day of the week. Now we know in the Old Testement the laws was given to the jews. In the New Testement is when the Gentiles was grafted in. We have no scriptual reference that God ever gave the orginal Sabbath command to the gentiles, or that it was repeated for the church to obey. Only nine of the Ten Commandments are repeated in the New Test. The Sabbath commandment is not. So another question is did the Sabbath command die when Jesus died? And when he arose on the first day of the week is that what we should follow?

If you can't TRUTHFULLY answer these three simple questions, than you're a lost soul and don't have a REAL reason why you exist at all.

Think about it like,
2000 odd years ago, aliens could have artificially inseminated the virgin mary,
The bright night star (or spaceship?) guided the wise men,
and back then they could of easily believed it was divine activity,
Angels descending, music been played from the skys, the list goes on.

Its possible i say!

There are a couple of girls that just hate my guts and I have no idea why! I am a very patient person, but they are seriously irritating me, they are so rude they call me a slut, whore, and skank everytime I pass them! It's gotten to the point where they marked on my locker where I keep all of my stuff, it's really elementary. I don't think my boss really likes me either. I would tell her that I am seriously uncomfortable around them but I know she won't listen. I am thinking about quiting my job and just let those snobs have their way.
On top of that I'm sort of stressed cause I just made a huge move....does anyone have any ideas as to what I can do to make them stop or should I just quit and find another job?

If the three letters G O D are what we use to repesent The power of love, than yes I could GOD you. God is not a person with a long white beard sitting on a cloud somewhere. The only reason ITS called HIM in the bible is because the bible was written by HIMS.

Sometimes we are brutally reminded of the hate and ignorance in our society. (the recent "texas chainsaw massacre" on YA this past hour)

Keep the faith people. On an anonymous public forum like YA many more disturbed "degree holders" will visit and insult us. We cannot prevent this.

Excuse me if I post another piece on RESPECT which I find relevant.

Respect has great importance in everyday life. As children we are taught (one hopes) to respect our parents, teachers, and elders, school rules and traffic laws, family and cultural traditions, other people's feelings and rights, our country's flag and leaders, the truth and people's differing opinions. And we come to value respect for such things; when we're older, we may shake our heads (or fists) at people who seem not to have learned to respect them. We develop great respect for people we consider exemplary and lose respect for those we discover to be clay-footed, and so we may try to respect only those who are truly worthy of our respect. We may also come to believe that, at some level, all people are worthy of respect. We may learn that jobs and relationships become unbearable if we receive no respect in them; in certain social milieus we may learn the price of disrespect if we violate the street law: “Diss me, and you die.” Calls to respect this or that are increasingly part of public life: environmentalists exhort us to respect nature, foes of abortion and capital punishment insist on respect for human life, members of racial and ethnic minorities and those discriminated against because of their gender, sexual orientation, age, religious beliefs, or economic status demand respect both as social and moral equals and for their cultural differences. And it is widely acknowledged that public debates about such demands should take place under terms of mutual respect. We may learn both that our lives together go better when we respect the things that deserve to be respected and that we should respect some things independently of considerations of how our lives would go.
