Whenever I go to a funeral of a person who had not accepted Jesus as their personal saviour I become so annoyed when I see some ignorant priest praying for their condemned soul. I always stand up and announce that their prayers will accompish nothing since the deceased is burning in a lake of fire and brimstone while being raped anally by demons throuout eternity for not accepting the shed blood of our precious lord Jesus Christ. Whenever I make this statement I tend to recieve a lot of opposition from the folks at these funeral processions and this mystifies me since I am just reiterating what I had read in the scriptures. I went to the funeral of a retarded guy and explained to everyone that a persons inability to comprehend Jesus Christ is no excuse for not accepting him since Jesus said that a person cannot enter his fathers kingdom without accepting his shed blood. Why cant people understand that I am speaking Gods truth rather than getting upsetting and forcing me to leave?

Why is the world so unfair? I have sturggled with this question for a long time. I have even discussed it with non believers. Why is it that there are people suffering in multiple ways, famine, disease, war, list goes on.......and places exist where we throw food everyday?

Sorry. This is a trick question. I know for a fact God is real, however, you can waste your time trying to prove me wrong if you want.

I live in Louisiana and I'm so sick of the Katrina Victims complaining about the government not helping. I think if you had no flood/home insurance, oh well. You don't hear people in Southern AL/MS complaining. They all got together and helped everyone clean up and fix things. You would think that New Orleans was the only place affected by Katrina. When all they received was flooding. Anyone else disagree?

Its not like I care. But I just want to know.

I mean, culturally she is Black. She wears bamboo earings (no lie), apple bottom jeans, ect. But I am not quite sure if she is asian or hispanic (I think that must mean she is filipino).

I've wanted to ask her what she is, but don't want to jack my game all up over something that doesn't have any bearing on whether or not I want to fap her. I suppose if she wanted me to know she would have mentioned it by now, but she hasn't.

Do I ask, or not?

All you have to do is say that Brigham Young had 51 wives and show a picture of him with his wives and they call you a bigot.

Hey, if Brigham didn't do it we would not report it. That's fair.

Is it hate speech against George Washington if I said that he was a Planter and owned slaves? It's true.

So how does reporting the facts translate into hate speech?

If you don't sin then you don't get caught in the sin. It's a simple as that! I know that I never did anything even close to as bad as Young.

I was thinking about making the Straight edge commitment, which I know involves some things:

1. Abstaining from tobacco, alchool, and illegal drugs[perscription abuse is not allowed]

2. Abstaining from all sex except in a commited relationship

But is vegetarinaism also part of it, because I'm not so sure about joining in then. Although I do not wear or use fur or leather, because killing animals not for food, but for our own comfort, is stupid.(Down feathers and wool are okay by me though)

They are both a choice.

Is abstinence a choice out of fear of hell?

Celibacy is a choice because we are not in a relationship with someone that we want to make love with.

Does that makes sense?

Religion is defined this way (notice especially definition #4):

re·li·gion (r-ljn)
n.

4. A cause, principle, or activity pursued with zeal or conscientious devotion.

This is the definition of "Belief": belief - any cognitive content held as true...

Based on definition #4 of religion and the definition of belief, how is it that Atheism is not a religion or belief?

It appears that Denial is not only a river in Egypt....LOL!

Improprieties. I suppose I should report him but it seems like too much work...I think it might be kkk or whoever...but I also think I should feel quite flattered. I mean if he is not interested in me sexually then why is he giving me sexual appraisals? --moot point because I'm already married....but interesting none the less. Is it not?

The Pope has apparently decided now is the best time to draw a line in the sand with the rest of christianity and through fear of Hellfire and Damnation convince christians to return to the catholic church.

Are YOU scared?

I recently came across this whilst watching the news. And for you atheists that believe hell doesn't exist or is a town in Michigan...what do you think should happen to these people should they be found guilty of feeding this toddler ecstasy?

To make this legal please state your religion or beliefs.

I know that in many countries, it is not right for a Muslim woman to show a lot of skin (like cleavage, a lot of leg, etc). But I've seen several Muslim women (living in the US and the UK, as well) who, sometimes, flaunt much of their body and fail to keep certain "things" covered. Is this wrong of them?

This belief is distrubing. If the world ended today 2/3 of the world's population would go to hell. I don't think 2/3 of the world's population is that bad.

If this belief is true Hitler would go to heaven because he was a christian, and all the jewish people he murdered would go to hell. This is a bad example, but I think you get my point.

It's important to realize that when a self-proclaimed atheist is posting and reading on R&S and trolling with questions against God that they are thinking about spiritual things and are more open to the gospel of Jesus Christ that can lead them to repentance and salvation than at any other time in their lives. You do understand that slandering God and Jesus is their way of defending their guilty consciences, right? You get that they are desperately denying God because they are afraid of His judgement and of hell, don't you? Will you promise to always be patient and loving toward agnostics and so-called atheists who troll this board and always give them the message of hope that Christ has entrusted to you? Will you remember to pray for each and every one of them?
