I'm not non-religious, but don't attend church regularly. I'd like to believe Heaven exists, but just don't know for sure. Does that make me a bad person, or does God forgive such questions as being human? I think some people say they totally believe in things just to feel God will accept them into Heaven when their days on Earth are at an end. What do you think? My mother recently died and I sure would feel better if I felt more sure that she is in a wonderful place at the side of God........

Salarios de los mecánicos demasiado bajos: Lector

Estoy escribiendo esta letra en la frustración, la decepción y la incredulidad.

Mi hijo es técnico auto licenciado. Mi marido y yo te animamos a que entrara este comercio como lo creímos para ser uno que lo proveería de un buen estándar vivir. Él tiene una aptitud verdadera y un amor genuino de coches.

Ahora realizo porqué hay tal carencia de la gente en este comercio. No hay absolutamente dinero que se hará en este trabajo sucio, desagradecido.

My great great grandfather was Jewish. He married a Catholic and had my great grandmother. My great grandmother was raised Catholic. Her son, my grandfather rejected the Catholic church as well did his daughter, my mother. I have always just assumed to be Catholic although I am not currently attending mass regulary. I am interested in my family history and Jewish ties. In the past I worked at a Jewish summer camp and have read many books about the religion.
Again, my question is, "Am I Jewish at all, or I am I such a tiny bit that it doesn't matter anymore?

Where do you believe morality comes from? Who/what ultimately decides right from wrong?

Ever notice how scientifically atheists don't believe in God, yet it's the central theme of all their jokes? So basically they are a disbeliever 9-5, and after that they have more faith than a Christian?

Ever notice how Christians are always trying to save the atheists that don't want to be saved? I mean come on guys, teach someone that actually cares.

Ever notice how atheists on here never actually rebuttle pascals wager, all they ever say is 'drink?'

Ever notice how Christians are always praying for the atheists? Then why are there still atheists???

Ah...

Doesn't it make you feel like they think that you're ignorant (even though you're not)?

For instance, when you go to job interview, people will tell you to dress well, answer question confidently, blah blah blah ... as if they're the experts and you don't know anything. And if you don't get the job (or the next interview), then they'll tell you "Oh, you should've done this or you should've done that ..." as if you don't already know how to do those things. (The fact of the matter is that you do know how to do those things, but under the special circumstances you couldn't do them. Things aren't always so simple.)

Does anybody know what I'm talking about?
How do you deal with this when it happens?

I try to be a good person. I try to always be kind. I try to do the right thing as much as possible. However, my ex boyfriend has begun seeing someone that makes me question just WHY it is that we are moral? This woman is part of a group of partiers...They spend their free time drinking, sleeping with one another and partying on boats, in bars, doing coke, generally having a great time....I initially thought, well, I'm better than that. I can't live that way, that's not reality. These people are living completely decrepitude. But it IS reality for alot of people. They are having fun. What is a GOOD reason for NOT living this way? I mean, I don't see it. If there's no prize at the end of the day for being moral (and you god fearing folk, I appreciate it but I am not religious so I don't want to hear that God thinks I should live a certain way), then WHY be that way? why not party hard with no morals? Why try to live within a moral way if there's no payoff?

I want to join Peace Corps, but don't know what region I would get the most out of (and I'm aware you don't always get the region requested).

I feel like Africa would give me the most amazing experience, but I'm not sure I could stand the intense extremes in temperature, and the living conditions. I definitely couldn't live in a mud hut- sometimes even in my own bed on our second story I get freaked out that someone is going to come in my window and attack me, I can't imagine living in a place without windows!

I'm also picky about food, but love to cook. I would need to be in a place with lots of fresh foods available. The more tropical locations appeal to me for this reason.

The European countries like Ukraine and Macedonia also appeal to me because they are more urban and the living conditions are better. But I sort of feel like I won't get the whole Peace Corps experience in a place like that.

My main concern is safety. Which regions have the most welcoming people?

Let's face it, none of us is perfect, and we can't ever reach perfection. But we can be better if we all get rid of the negative things that are a part of us, and start doing routines that will help us and people around us. I think that everyone can give a few tips; something that is their life ideal or moto, and what all of us can embrase. Let's be better humans. I think that everyone can benefit from this.Thank you in advance.

Like one time I had a lollypop in my mouth, and some people though it was a cigerette. Can't assumptions sometimes be dangerous starting unnesscary conflicts amongst people. Like lets say someone told my parents I smoke, while I was eating a lollypop imagine how much **** i'd be in. Another example is if someone assumes something about you or you're family without getting the actual truth, it can ruin people's image of you.
