Do you think that we have overcome the bad upbringing of our parents and have more positive things to offer the world than negative things? Well, for the state of music I'd say that we're in the pits, but we seem to have better values than our parents in some ways.
I'm gonna get a lot of mixed responses from people, but I just want to see what people will say to this question.

Is it because of fear of being targeted by terrorist groups? Or is it something else?

I have seen some Muslims speak out publicly, but not as many as I'd like to see speak out.

Heaven how will we know what's good in heaven if there's only good in heaven? I don't think we need bad to know what's good. Do we really need pain to recognize joy on earth? I don't think so.

Christians are to witness the gospel of Christ to others. Many of them hate us. Jesus told us this would happen. Be steadfast in your witness. Don't become lukewarm, so you will be popular. When you must endure the onslaught of vicious verbal attacks, remember it could be worse. You could be one of them. You could be prideful, arrogant, angry, hostile, full of hate, and deceived. You could be lost. Pray for them. Love them. But, don't lie to them just to get along with them. Satan has already lied to them. What they need is honesty. Whether or not they are willing to accept the truth is out of our hands. They have been given the free will to make their own choice as to where they want to spend eternity. They call us names and insult us in any way they can think of, but this is only an indication they need Jesus. Obey God and witness to those who are lost in sin. Jesus never said it would be easy. He only said it would be worth it.
May God bless you and may His Holy Spirit guide you.

BODIES, BUILDINGS, INNOCENT PEOPLE AND NOW THE FLIPPING AIRPOST IN SCOTLAND. in a car!
I am sick of these crazy fanatics trying to blow people up all the time. I have been living in this country for 25 years, born and proudly British Bred. I value British Government to treat us normal citizens, and I value the rules and always abide by them.
But what really gets to me is when some of these WIERD "muslims" start ruinin it for us. And they ask why BNP wants to throw us muslims out?!

If I can live peacefully as a British Muslim why can't others? What do they get out of it? They are or shall I say HAVE made it VERY hard for us more than ever in any generation! Now the rest of us have to suffer for some head slapping crazy nuts acts or so called "beliefs"

Liberals seem to be all for free speech except when it isn't what they want to hear. For the record, I am neither conservative or liberal. I am a pragmatist. I have conservative and liberal views depending on the issue being discussed.

Many of you responded that the reason that some people live through events like 9/11 and others die is because, for the survivors, it was not their time to go. Yet, in my previous hypothetical question, many of you indicated that you would thank God for answering your prayer and letting you live through the event. However, if God had already determined when you were going to die, doesn’t that mean that he was not responding to your prayer? In other words, you weren’t supposed to die that day anyway. Your prayer was irrelevant. For those who died, they were probably praying that they would live, but God had already determined that it was their day to die. So, in such a case, is there any point in praying? The future was already pre-determined by God (at least by your logic), correct?

27"But I tell you who hear me: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, 28 bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. 29 If someone strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also. If someone takes your cloak, do not stop him from taking your tunic. 30Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back. 31Do to others as you would have them do to you.
32"If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even 'sinners' love those who love them. 33And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you? Even 'sinners' do that. 34And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even 'sinners' lend to 'sinners,' expecting to be repaid in full. 35But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful
