What do you consider to be middle age? What do you consider to be a senior citizen?

I suspect, depending on your current age, we'll see varied answers!

Afterall.... some folks here love to go on about the crusades and witchhunting (as though they seriously consider population-control to be a bad thing)... but when precisely did christianity's fierce war-making totally come to an end? When did people stop getting executed for heresy in primarily christian countries?

Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that endures to
eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. On him God the
Father has placed his seal of approval.
-- John 6:27
THOUGHT:
What are you spending the biggest bulk of your life working for?
Is it a boss, a promotion, a sense of importance, a secure
lifestyle ...? If it can be taken from you, or you can be removed
from it, then it's not very permanent is it! Only what Jesus gives
us is truly lasting, and it comes from God's grace. So how can you
more fully invest yourself in work that "endures to eternal life"?

PRAYER:
Un-cloud my thinking, dear God, so that I may more clearly see
what it is that I'm working for in my life. Help me find ways to
invest myself, "my" time, and "my" money in those things that are
eternal. But, dear Father, I must confess that I will need your
help to find my significance in my relationship with you and not in
what I do, produce, and accomplish. Please forgive and stre

If you don't believe God exists why can't you leave it at that? I don't believe in Santa clause and I don't waste my time on forums arguing his exisitence. What drives you to spend so much of your time arguing about nothing? You all just seem very foolish to me. Most of you seem intelligent have you nothing better to do than argue with believers? Believers believe God exists and it becomes their religion. You don't believe. So why when you denounce the evils of religion do you go and create a religion out of anti religion. All of you athiests that actively post on R&S are as bad or worst then the believers because you spend your time arguing about the exsistence of nothing!

Exodus 21:1 -- 21:7
These are the ordinances that you shall set before them:
When you buy a male Hebrew slave, he shall serve six years, but in the seventh he shall go out a free person, without debt. If he comes in single, he shall go out single; if he comes in married, then his wife shall go out with him. If his master gives him a wife and she bears him sons or daughters, the wife and her children shall be her master's and he shall go out alone. But if the slave declares, "I love my master, my wife, and my children: I will not go out a free person," then his master shall bring him before God. He shall be brought to the door or the doorpost; and his master shall pierce his ear with an awl; and he shall serve him for life.

Exodus 21:20,21
When a slaveowner strikes a male or female slave with a rod and the slave dies immediately, the owner shall be punished. But if the slave survives a day or two, there is no punishment; for the slave is the owner's property.

I'd like to know people's own personal reasons for considering homo/bisexuality to be wrong~

This is your own reasons for why you consider it wrong, not because your religion says it's sinful or immoral, etc - YOUR reasons.

Additionally if you weren't bound by your religious convictions would you have a problem with homo/bisexuality?

Thanks

I just read an article which stated the ACLU is run by Leftwing Atheist Jews.

Is it possible to be an atheist and jewish at the same time?

In a recent question, a person (and I use the term loosly) named "a psychic" said that Christianity would die out in about a hundred years. I've heard similar comments from others, and I just have to laugh at the stupidity of such a statement. Emporers, Czars, dictators and despots have tried to wipe out the Church for 2000 years, with no success. From the persecutions in Rome in the 2nd & 3rd centuries to the Communists in the 20th century and everything in betweeen, not only have their attempts to destroy the Church failed, but the Church has grown to span the globe. The office of the pope is the oldest continuing office on earth. Do godless people think that their half-baked intellectualism will actually topple the Body of Christ - the Church? The Church is the Bride of Christ: It is indestructable. Oh, it may go underground from time to time in different lands, but it can never die. When Christ comes again you will see Him and His Bride united in glory - no man can prevent that.

We can't separate ourselves sufficiently from the news of the world to avoid knowing about how religious fanatics of every description sometimes get carried away with their beliefs and begin killing people indiscriminately, or mass murder/suicides.

9/11's a prime example. The Mormon incidents here and there over the past 30 years or so. Jim Jones et al. The Heaven's Gate thing. Satan Worshipers in Houston a couple of decades ago.

Then there's the Charlie Whitman phenomenon. It sometimes doesn't appear to be religiously/spiritually motivated when a sniper starts picking off everyone in sight. But sometimes in the aftermath, it turns out everyone was a bit concerned about the guy before it happened.

Doesn't Nihilsim, carried to an extreme, resemble a solitary form of Jim Jonesism?

I just moved into my new place recently and noticed that my roommate has been drinking my beverages. Normally I would not have a problem with this, had they asked me first, however I am on a really tight budget and can't afford to share my food. Plus I work long days so I dont' have time to grocery shop all the time so when I come home I want to have my food intact. For example, I bought a case of 24 water bottles. This morning I woke up with killer cramps but had no water left to take my Ibuprofren with and therefore am in a lot of pain! My roommate is a nice person so I don't want to start things off on the wrong foot....help!
