isnt it a paradox? God know our whole life,,the outcome,every move we make.So whats our purpose,,is he the puppet master? Please dont quote the Bible,, free will etc...what free will ,you dont choose him you go to Hell..sounds like the game is fixed.He made us ,he knows our flaws as humans but we still get punished for acting on them.Dont say how special I am,,you tell that to all the people,,its just a blanket statement.Dont get me wrong i do believe in God,im just in doubt ful mood.It just seem like its all a game and im just a pawn.

there are several layers of meaning in Daniel 9. An application can be made to interpret the rebirth of Israel as the beginning of the last layer of 70 weeks, meaning 70 years. Israel was reborn in 1948 and 70 years from then is 2018, but actually 2017, since 2018 would start the 71st year. Jesus said that the generation born after Israels' rebirth would see the final days prophesied. We are that generation. the last week would be between 2010 - 2017. would this be the time of the tribulation? Do modern threats of nuclear war play into this picture? If this is true.....how will you spend the next 2-3 years?

Say for example, you defend yourself to people who are homophobic and people who are not homophobic. These people then consider you a "radical" because you defend yourself to them while they assume that "gays should be seen and not heard?" Like defending yourself to people who are not gay can get turned off to you simply for defending yourself, but, you do it in a good way. You're not violent or threatening, just, justified in your beliefs and are simply defending yourself.

I have been having a lot of trouble lately because people who are not vegan seem to just not understand what it means. I can't eat any dairy or meat! Is it rude to tell someone in advance? How do you word it politely?

Corporations, far too many of them anyway, are only concerned with one thing, profits. It does not matter how those profits are made sometimes, all that matters is the profit. This excludes the community, the workers, and the environment at times. How can a corporation be seen as a good thing, when all it concerns itself is with money? I see it, in its present form, as being a very negative infuence on society as a whole, and one that does not exemplify anything that Jesus spoke of, how can it when all it does is focus on profits?

Take the time to read these words and think about your day.

I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And i think to myself:
"What a wonderful world!"

I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to my self:
"What a wonderful world!"

The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands saying "How do you do."
Thay really say: "I love you!"

I hear babies crying I watch them grow
They'll learn much more than I'll ever know
And I think to myself:
"What a wonderful world!"
Yes, I think to myself:
"What a wonderful world!"

What do you think about when you read the words?

Then what would they do to people are really do think differently.

The story: http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20070709/od_afp/australiareligion

In a nutshell an Australian Catholic school has barred a student whose last name is Hell. That's really his family's name, and it is of Austrian derivation.

It seems to this observer that here in the 21st century, some religious people are reverting to a pre-enlightenment agenda.

Are we in danger of losing the last six centuries of human progress and returning to a world bound by superstition and shepherded by an blind and unreasoning faith?

Einstein thought that believing in a personal god was naive. Wouldn't it be really stupid to argue with him. I mean he DID figure out the Law of Relativity all by himself after all. Religious zombies can't even think for themselves. This is written in the Bible, This is written in the Qu'ran, my pastor told me not to covet my neighbours damn sexy @ss, even though she's single and gagging for it, I chopped my penis off, does God hate me?

I was curious. If someone found out, would you still be kicked out? If so, wouldn't people start claiming to be gay?

I believe that "from the abundance of the heart,the mouth will speak..." If someone you had only spoken to had to place a judgement on what kind of person you are, only on what has come out of your mouth, the words you have spoken... What would they say about you? are you really a good person at heart if you are speaking ugly things? ...would you be proud of what you have portrayed yourself as?

my daughter has just started a small catholic school and alyhough we do not follow a religion within our family I am happy for her to learn new approaches to life.
She asked today how god created us and i started to explain that he created Adam & Eve first & then I realized I don't know how to explain it to her.
What do you think I should say?
