...my favorite novel is "Their Eyes Were Watching God" by Zora Neale Hurston?

Should I write a sequel called "Their Eyes Were Watching Evolution, a gradual process that typically occurs over many thousand years"?

how far is too far as far as intimacy in dating? I have Christian morals and my bf and i just want what God wants. But when things heat up and i find him in my pants or shirt, i wonder, "is this too far?" The Bible forbids sex before marriage, but what about the other stuff? I most would appreciate answers from people in relationships with Christ as the center. Thank you and God Bless.

Bear with me here.

TIME as stated by most scientists is a construct of our perception and not in intrinsic quality of the universe. Time is all in our head basically. However time affects everything everywhere at anytime. You cannot undo the effects of time and in this respect it is infallable; irreversable. Also TIME by its very nature is eternal. Time doesn't begin or end it simply is and moves forward. One could even say that time knows everything because it has seen all that has been and will continue to see all that will be.
Does this remind you of anybody?

Time:Universal - Infallable - Eternal - Undefinable by science - Outside of the material world but has a great effect on it

God: Universal - Infallable - Eternal - Undefinable by science - Outside of the material world but has a great effect on it.

If time loved us then we could confidently say that time is god could we not? Meets all the criteria.

I read this story..

and I thought - aren't there any black people who support animal rights? And aren't there any white people who think people are innocent until proven guilty.

How and why is this becoming a racial issue?

It makes my heart sad.

i have seen some people go down a terrible road, and at some point find god, and managed to turn their lives around, at least somewhat. i am always very happy for these people. it doesn't matter to me which god they found, just that they are better off now. what do you think, have you seen this too?

What miracle is required to begin the universe?

Considering the total energy in the universe is zero (a balance between negative gravitional energy and the material energy) and the total entropy is increasing (as the universe expands) and nothingness appears to be an unstable state...

What need is there for a Creator?

Far be it from me to ridicule another person’s faith system. The way they approach it yes, maybe, but the validity of that faith system, no. Still I don’t understand the logic behind someone calling themselves an Atheistic Pagan, or some permutation thereof. I really just don’t understand. An Atheist does not believe in god, any god, or higher power or great spirit- nothing. A-theistic; away from theistic teachings. Pagan is a Latin word meaning country dweller, and refers to the traditional beliefs of the tribal people who lived far from the civilizing influence of the cities. It became popular to call them pagans when Christianity took over the larger cities. Current pagans seek to follow the practices of those times. Be it celtic, Egyptian, or Greek. There is a basic understanding that Paganism is a religion. To cut to the point Atheism is the absence of religion, Paganism is a religion. It’s like saying I’m a Satan worshiping Christian. Can someone clear this up for me?

I know this may sound silly to some of you, but I'm asking that you will please pray for my cat. I love my cat so much, and I know that God does, too. God cares for the little things in our lives, and He sees every sparrow that falls. My cat has been missing for several days, and it may already be too late, but please, if he is still alive, pray that God will send him back to me. And if my cat is already gone, pray that God will help me to be able to deal with it. I know that some of you think that a cat is not important, but he is very special to me.

My cat's name is Motor, by the way.
Thank you so much, and God bless you all!
