I case you don't know what multiverses is, it is a string theory believing the are mutiple universes.

Would God have created thousands of us and why?

Can omniscient God, who
Knows the future, find
The omnipotence to
Change His future mind?

In Portland Oregon, two 14 year old girls were involved in a gross public display of affection. Not just kissing, but deep kissing and heavy petting. So the people on the bus complained, and the driver asked them to stop, they didn’t, so off they went. Now HE’S in trouble for telling them to stop and kicking them! Am I the only one to think this is ludicrous? It’s not a gender/sexual preference thing either, THEY’RE 14! Where are their parents?!?

I hear the libs do it all the time , putting them all in the 'redneck' category . I would much rather live in a trailer park then some run down nasty roach infested apartment building . They hate it when people assume only black people live in the ghetto yet they will come right back at you saying you are a cracker in a trailer park. I see the libs on here stereotyping people as much as anyone else does. For the record i don't live in a trailer or an apartment but i have in both in my time but I will take the trailer any day if I had a choice.

i' ve been living in the U.S since 1999. I came from Greece when i was pretty young, i'm now 21, and i still can't adjust to life here. I mean..eveyrthing is so depressing, stores close at 8, people are very closed to themselves and mind their own business. Some will look at you weird if you ask them a question some will ignore you. Why is that? how come europeans are more social and here everything is different? I'm guessing things are better for the mexicans, russians, asians etc since there's plenty of them here but what about the rest of the minorities? i stuggle to meet other europeans and when i do they are 'amecanized' acting like the rest of the people here.

What does "disapprove of" or "don't agree with" entail?

Is it a moral statement, as in they "don't agree" with it on moral grounds? If so, do most people claim that their "disapproval" is Biblically justified, or do they claim it's morally wrong because it's "against nature"?

Is it based on some negative notion of what a "homosexual lifestyle" is? If so, do most disapproving people have credible, peer reviewed research conducted by reputable individuals and/or organizations to back up their position?

And can it REALLY be said that these positions aren't intolerant or prejudiced?

Since Israel switched places with Palestine.......what advice can you give the Palestinians. I would think the Jews would know what the Palestinians are going through having been an oppressed people without a homeland themselves. They should understand better than anyone else how they feel. Any advice for them when they scatter across all the different nations of the world.

One person is born in a very rich family, in a nice country, very beautyful, intelligent and famous, and another person is born in a very poor family, practicly starving, and a country with wars and despotic government, ugly, fool and worthless?
That means God give punishment and reward? but why, if they din't exist before? what is your explanation?don't say is examples or test.

I will be a high school senior in the fall, and I have started looking at colleges. It's important to me to find a school that is accepting of GBLTQ students. Or, at least, I want to find to school that isn't extremely UNaccepting. This is not my main focus when looking for a school, but it definitely affects my view of the school.

So, basically, which schools are good? Which should I steer clear of? I'm mostly looking at schools in the northeast.

Thanks!

If someone seems to instinctively understand the meaning of scripture, or have the ability to tell when something or someone is "not right" according to the Bible, even when they're not really sure how or why they know these things, would this be a spiritual gift, or just the Holy Spirit guiding that person? If it's a spiritual gift, what is the name of it?

I don’t understand why our country gets more upset with nudity and pornography on TV than violence……Its ok to show a man getting shot point blank in the face but a pair of women’s breasts crosses the line….does anyone else feel this way?
