That was one of the jobs I just really wanted to do.
It wasn't a career goal, just a job that I would have liked to turn my hand to.
Are there any jobs you wished you had an opportunity to do? Why?

In light of the high divorce rates and broken homes in the US, even among Christians, why not fix the institution of marriage first? then it would make more since to have all these Defense of Marriage Acts. Isn't it hypocritical to defend a broken institution? If marriage is all that, why is there so much divorce, broken homes, and people just deciding to live together? Recent US census figures state that for the first time in history there are more single adults than married ones. Two-thirds of children born in black communities are out of wedlock. In light of this situation, why is there all this fervor to define marriage between a man and woman?

3 questions below -
-Rant? It is true, plenty of folks here do rant. So what if an atheist said this or that? Relax, take a deep breath and answer as if your mom was standing next to you.

-Call people names? I exchanged e-mail notes with a fella yesterday, who was very upset with our Christian God. Plenty of folks read his angry questions, and responded in varying degrees of simpathy to outright disdain. I can say if I had been through what I found out he has, I'd be an angry man too. How about some examples of unconditional love from you fellow believers out there? Do you think because someone shakes their fist at God, God hates them? I don't. God loves them. We need to show it too.

-Report atheists for valid questions? What gives? Let people speak their mind? If you're insulted, go to another question.

We are suppose to be the light of the world, not the police force. Speak the good word.

God bless.

Or did the accident that caused Human Life (Big Bang Theory) have some intelligent matter that was able to determine Human Beings would have a greater purpose on the planet than animals, insects, plants?

Does the Prez come up with these nominees out of personal conviction or just to stir up enough ruckus to distract people from real issues for which he has no answers? (Not that he would be the first President to use this tactic).

Does it matter if he is muslim or christian,or hebrew or budhist ,or even pagan.
Won't god hear them all ?
Won't god judge them all for all good or evil that they wish for ?
And also punish or reward them accordingly ?

This is a tactic that has become popular within Evangelical Christianity and is particularly aimed at teens and first year college students.

The Christian purposely “befriends/targets” a “non-believer” and introduces him/her to other Christian friends. They pal around for a while and discourage the target from forming other friendships. After a few months the target is pressured to convert. If the person converts he/she becomes one of the pack. If they choose not to convert it is not uncommon for the “target” to be dumped and left on their own. This can be particularly devastating to first year college students who can be midway through their first year and suddenly find themselves with no friends.

If you doubt the existence of relational evangelism Google it and see for yourself. I know a fellow whose son got messed up in this stuff. He ended up totally friendless in the middle of his sophomore year of college.

I'm trying to translate the quote 'Freedom isn't free' into latin for a friend who's really interested in getting it as a tattoo. Problem is that I don't know any latin at all and I'm not to sure i can trust the online translators. I've given them a shot and the closest thing I've gotten it 'Libertas est haud libera' but I can't be sure this is correct. I'd really appreciate it if someone could help me out on this.

Thanks.

Its God who gave humans worth,
Why do many people,especially athiests think that intelligence equels worth.

Just because somebody is intelligent why do athiests think they are more worthwhile?

The christian view is that a poor honest man has as much worth as a rich smart man,do athiests find this offensive?

Why don't they emphasize the resurrection aspect of Christ's story, instead of dwelling on the method of His death?
