I would rather have society know the truth (that there is no truth) then for people to act nice to each other because they think life has some sort of "meaning."

-Atheism, the logical choice.

Hello,

Curious...What is an Evangelist exactly, and how do they differ from other Christians or is there even a difference?

I consider myself a Catholic, yet open minded towards other segments, religions, etc...and enjoy learning what other people believe...I recently visited an Evangelist church…..and was surprised with the behavior I witnessed...of course everyone is able to believe what they want...It just took me off guard.

Good day.

If God wants gays and lesbians to not unite, why would he allow State Sanctioned Gay Marriages to happen here in Massachusetts?

I'm a young heterosexual guy, very masculine personality, and I've consistently dated very feminine women.

About 5 years ago I discovered I have a fetish for anal sex, and then recently in the last couple years I've been very curious and attracted to transexuals. I almost exclusively masterbate to porn containing them when my girlfriend is not available. I know I'm not gay because the idea of doing it with a man is not at all appealing and I never look at men sexually when I'm out and about, but for some reason I not only like transexuals, but pre-op ones specifically. Sucking and recieving a man's cock is something I would never consider doing, but if it was attached to a woman's body I think I might really enjoy it. Very confusing.

It's weird, I don't even fantasize about gay sex, but when it comes to transexuals, not only would I love giving it to them, but the idea of recieving it is strangely arousing too! I don't understand :(

I have a coworker that gets away with anything she wants. For example, today she casually strolled in to the office at 11am. WTF? We are customer service and we are supposed to be here no later than 7am.

That's not the half of it though.....she wears VERY promiscuous clothing (not professional at all). She wears no bras (to turn on herself in front of the guys), her daughter's shirts (she is 40, her daughter is 18), she talks about her rauncy sex life, and is overall lazy.

I don't understand how she continues to have a job? My boss is aware of all of this yet does nothing. We can't go to his boss, because he boss doesn't work here and he doesn't deal with problems this far down the food chain.

Something has got to give. I get so discouraged from being a good employee when I see her acting this way and yet no punishment.

What can I do? I cannot ignore it.

...Well, that doesn't make a lot of sense does it? If he already KNEW that I was going to hell, then why even bother with the life part? Would that not be a waste of his time? Why not just send me to hell as an embryo and get it over with?

What do you think about may 12, 2008 when EVERYBODY has to get a microchip implanted in their foreheads or in their right hands? They say it is manditory! I know it's the anti-christ! He wants to get us all. He tries to fool us, but we all know that it's 666! Don't get the chip because then, you will be doomed forever! The chip will brainwash you, too! Jesus can come back at anytime! I hope you guys are ready for the end.....

There are ads in this brochure and some pictures that are not in color. I can only find 1953 coronation, but this is 1937. There is not a picture on the outside only THE LONDON NEWS in print but inside are a lot of pictures of family and the queen's coronation back then. Is it worth anything anyone?

...definition of fornication as pre-marital sex, not the precise term of course, and was not the custom the Hebrew custom of the time betrothal followed by marriage after impregnation?

This is a reworking of a previous question since I don’t think I asked it properly. I would like to hear from people who know the Bible well and are willing to give the question a fair appraisal and thoughtful answer that doesn’t judge the asker in a negative light. I do appreciate the answers I got to the previous question and think that they were honest to the spirit of the answerer.

PS-Now I can see why people often put ellipsis in their question after finding out how short 110 characters is.

Homosexuality is a sexual orientation, not a lifestyle. Some people might not want to hear it, but it is no different than heterosexuality. You don't hear people referring to the "straight lifestyle." I am just tired of this term. It doesn't even make sense.

I asked how they can trust the society after the 1975 failure and they had my question deleted and took 10 points.

This behavior proves them to be a cult if they can't even have an open discussion about their organization.

who was struck by lightning in Florida while he was out selling Bible books? He was not a Jehovah's Witness by the way. We don't "sell" anything. But the people who lived on the street where he was struck said there was a perfectly blue sky, and the lightning just came from no where. Kinda strange, huh?
