* Anita, instead of studying, do you want to go to the movies?

* Yes, but before leaving I have to send this e-mail message

* After seeing the movie we can walk to El Mesón to (in order to) have dinner.

* It’s very close to the theater, and the food is excellent.

In Matthew 24: 36 it says Jesus doesn't know when the end of the world is, only his father. How can that be if he's the same thing as God?

Okay, based on your answers to my first question I don't think I stated my original quesiton correctly. Apparently what I think intelligent design is, is not what you think it is. What I am trying to say is by taking the intelligent designer option out of the equation you are teaching that God doesn't exist. Am I wrong in thinking that? That's what I have a problem with.

Technically there isn't really anything to teach. What I have in mind is to teach evolution, and then say "some people think a god started the process, and moved it along, and some people don't." That's it. Evolution and the Big Bang Theory may be true, but they still don't explain the origin of the universe.

How is God merciful?
How is God omniscient?
What indication, even in the Bible, is there that God loves us and really has our welfare in mind?
How is Hell even an option for a kind, loving God?

Now, I know there will be those who get on me for "blaming" a God I don't believe in, but that's not what I'm doing. I'm asking for believers to explain these things.

Thanks! =0)

I would like to know about some of your beliefs, your reasoning and why you believe what you believe. I am a Christian wanting a better understanding of where your belief comes from. Please no rude or disrespectful answers, Thanks!

there are monks in the east that sometimes chant and all but they believe in buddahist and Christian beliefs. The 14th Dalai Lima of Tibet believes Christian, Scientific and Buddahist beliefs can coexist but I do not understand

If you're willing, please have a look at the following essay, and offer your opinion on the argument the author makes...

Some Christians say God put evil tree in the garden because he wanted to see if people would obey him. Why would he need to run a test to know that? Wasn't he supposed to be outside of time and able to see the future?

What would you do if you were transgendered/transsexual and had a gay or lesbian friend (who was sometimes more) and this "friend" came to you for sexual favors when they couldn't find anyone else, or they were drunk, or..in my case, last weekend, she went to Pride and saw a lot of "hot" lesbians and since she couldn't get any of them, she came back to ME, to provide sexual services for her.
Yet, this "friend" will turn around and tell you that they can't be WITH you because they are gay or lesbian, and can't see themselves dating someone transgendered because they are gay or lesbian, and so can't date a FTM (if this friend is a lesbian) or can't date a MTF (if this friend is a gay man) because it messes with their identity and is out of their "realm".

It's like I'm good enough to sleep with, but not good enough to be in a relationship with. It's all ok, if it's behind closed doors. How would this make you feel and what would you do?

Here are mine:

1. when you indicate you're moving into another lane, and the bastard speeds up and will not let you in.

2. when people can't use the words "to" and "too" or "you're" and "your" properly.

Albino blacks look nothing like white people and if we were albino we would have no pigment and not be able to have black hair brown eyes ect. If we were albino blacks we would have wider flatter noses and kinky hair as well as other features that are similar to blacks.

The majority of people who live in the USA are Christians. Why does a minority, like Atheists, able to force our Government to change our laws to limit Christian rights and free speech, when it is evident that our Country was formed by Christians, for Christians. Our Country was blessed in the past. Why risk losing the favor of God, by kicking Him out of our Country, our Schools, our Government, our Families, and our Lives. Our Country has slid downhill ever since we elimitated prayer from our schools. See www.wallbuilders.org for the evidence. Why change things if they are not broken?
