Who said the following quote?

O Lord!
If I worship you from fear of Hell, cast me into Hell.
If I worship you from desire for Paradise, deny me Paradise

that's not as cheesy as a big bag of cheese, wrapped in cheese with bits of cheese attatched then shoved in a bigger bag of cheese

As a person that believes in evolution, I believe the strongest drive we have is for survival, seconded by the desire to reproduce. Both involve, often brutal, violent and self centerd acts. Christianity however appeals to the higher intellect, the ability to be insightful, sensitive to others, caring and compassionate. The difficulty in taking up Christs teaching is that your instinct will always go back to the violent, aggressive, unthinking animal. Jesus and God asked us to get above that., to deny our base, animal instincts. Tall, tall order for most.

It seems these Gods we have only care about some people and to Hell with the others.How do you explain how some are so well off and others suffer so much.Why dose your God favor some over others?

many Jehova witnesses Understand that the bible does not teach the trinity. The new testament actually teaches the godhead in 3 verses.
So what is the difference between the godhead and the trinity?

Someone who was mentally abused by one parent, raped as a teenager, horribly abused later in life (sexually) by another parent - and the police refused to believe them regarding the sexual abuse.

If someone cannot afford to be anywhere except for the same place as the person who sexually abused them, what can they do?

Seeing as 85% of the things in America are made in China. Also, they go to school all year around. But some how the feeling is always their that as a race, they are always overlooked or put in last 3rd or last place. This continent Asia, is producing most of the worlds goods not to mention hard working and rich with Tradition.

Ok people I just wanted to throw that out there. No its not wishfull thinking, just wanted to ask something hard and get opinions flying. Since civil unions are now legal in the UK, could a member of the royal faimly enter into one. Lets say Charles had a third son that was "HAPPY" could he enter a civil union without losing his place in the line of succession?

in the middle of a busy shopping town. My 5 yr old son picked a used hypodermic needle and said 'mummy look what I found' He was holding the needle which was unsheathed. I immediatly took it off him and marched into Boots the chemist where they reluctantly disposed of it.
The more I think about it the more I think the junkie had jacked up in the booth selling the evening telegraph as we walked past it seconds before and I had clocked something fishy but did not think of it until afterwards.
I have never experienced anything like this in my life and was utterly horrified that my son picked it up.
I wan't this looked at and want some advice here, I have alreadt emailed the evening standard
What would other folk do / have done?
Thanks

Just because we look like the ape or the ape looks like us, are we from each other? What is really wrong with those who believe that we come from the ape? What's really wrong with them, my niece asked?
