We give money to the homeless but are we really helping them out. Some use money for food and shelter and others use them for drugs and alcohol. They sit there and bag for money while scaring tourism away. Some cause trouble and some dont. Some actually need the money and some are too lazy to get a job. If we stop giving money, then will they go somewhere else? If we keep giving them money, then when they will move somewhere else?Ask yourself this, are we helping them out or making the situation worse

well, i read in the Bible He did, but what do you think that means?

and why, when people left in disgust after hearing that, Jesus didn't ask His disciples to make those people stay so that He can explain that He only meant it to be symbolical, if He only meant it to be symbolic?

is it really symbolic or not?

Our neighbors aren't close friends, but we're on speaking terms and they called on us many times to help with their aging mother.

Other than saying I'm sorry and telling her what a great daughter she had been to her mother and telling her to let us know if she needs anything, all I can think of is a card and flowers. Is that enough? I don't think that there will be a funeral to attend.

that no where in the bible does it say that Satan and his angels actually hurt mankind, It does say however, on multiple occasions that whenever Satan or any of his angels came in contact with humans, he gave them power and Knowledge. God can not handle the fact that humans do not want him here and he always kills innocence...the world turned his back on 'Him' Aeon's ago when 'Satan' cam and gave us the truth...He cant have us so no one will...spoiled brat!


the bible is completely metaphor...for those of you that never caught on....

Scriptures state that Pride and Selfrightousness are fprmost of sins. X can be AMERICAN(or citizen of another country), AN ARAB (or christian or other), A FOREMOST POLITICIAN, A FOREMOST SCIENTIST, A PRESIDENT, AN AFRICAN-AMERICAN (a white man) etc. etc. etc.

Is the answer to any of these that is "Y" is "terrorism" ?

I've always denied God and the Bible, yet my life is better than most christians that I've ever met. My wife and i are undyingly in love, our lifes are blessed with money, yet we cherish little things in life and take nothing for granted. I am totally content and happy inside and I always give to charity and have wonderful morals. I'm living proof that you dont need god in your life since he is made up.

There's this guy at my gym, he's actuaaly a trainer there, and my problem, is the fact that I don't know if he's flirting with me or not.For instance, around christmas, he came up to me and asked me how my holidays and I told him it was okay, then he asked me, who did I spend it with.And then there was another occasion where he came up to me and told me I looked sad, and wanted to see me smile, and as I was leaving asked me when will I be back.I'm thinking , well maybe he's just being friendly, but he's always telling me to text message him for trainer sessions, and i told him several times, I'm a broke *** college student, and I cannot afford them, but then he's still asking me to told me to call him on his cell phone for a free session, and he told me not to worry about it...and so i told him I would let him know but he will text me, and tell me that he wants to hook me up, and money is no problem, so I booked the free session, but my question is why is he being so pushy

Almost two years ago I paid an artist for a piece of artwork I wanted done. This was to be a gift for my husband for that Christmas, then that passed. And then it was to be for Valentine's day, that passed. Our anniversary. That passed.

You get the picture.

I emailed the artist five months ago, she responded that she was really busy and was aware that it was waiting for her to start. I do know she is busy, when I commissioned her I figured it would be about 8 months to get the finished work.

We are looking on two years now, with still no timeline for the work. I keep an eye on her website where she posts other pieces of artwork (far too much fan art for someone who has been paid for a commission).

Two years ago I paid over $170 to her for this work and have seen nothing in the way of progress. I would really like to get this artwork, but the delay has gotten me mad.

How would you handle it? Ask for a refund? Ask for a timeline? ...know any good artists you can refer?

I will tell you. First was the Salem Witch trials, the genocide of Native Americans and the taking away of Native American children from thier parents in order to "save" them, treating women as subordinates, abusive child labor which led to the need for child labor laws, slavery, The KKK, Skinheads, American Nazi Party and most of the Republican Party.

caught up in the middle of; "god's great dance, the universe, life itself" or whatever you want to call it; shouldn't we all recognize the truth that we are all here, in the same place, together? The answer to that is, 'yes'. And if we're all here together, how can any of you possibly believe that 'this is right, and that is wrong'? If "life, or creation, or the universe, or whatever it may be that is going on here" is taking place here and now, and has not yet reached its completion, or conclusion, then how can you possibly feel like you know the one, true, truth that encompasses the all of reality? My question is, "Why are your beliefs true, and someone else's beliefs, false?" - - - What makes you right, and nobody else?
