I was reading all of the race based questions and wanted to give Christ praise for breaking the barrier of race and all other exclusionary categories for humans.

“ We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.

I've always been to non-denominational Churches, or small little 'home Churches'.

I now go to an Assemblies of God Church. The Pastor is leaving to become a board member of the AG Group in MO.

We are going to be 'voting' in a new Pastor.

What can I expect to happen?

Thank you!

all mind our own business, and stop judging how others wish to live or end their own lives?

Since you who are reading this are not God, please don't be so egotistical as try to tell me how God feels about this!

A qipao, BTW, is the name for the "Chinese dress" or sometimes, as it's sometimes called, the "Shanghai dress"- form-fitting brocade dresses that usually (almost always) have a mandarin collar. They're beautiful, IMO.

I was wondering what the qipao's Western formal equivalent is, and what events/social gatherings in the US it's acceptable to wear a qipao to.

I thought it interesting, out of the three dozen gay lovers I've had, half were married. The main reason; there wives don't like giving oral sex. What do you think?

I saw a play this week, "In the Beginning" up in Lancaster, PA and they said Jesus was the second coming of Adam. I don't recall learning that in church or seeing that in the bible. I know he's supposed to be an incarnation of God but how could he be a (re) incarnation of God and Adam?

his father was so happy he killed the fatted calf.
Surely there was blood from the calf that they eat at the feast. Jesus didn't mention anything about eating the meat with the blood in it. I am not being nasty just trying to understand their religion.

What are your thoughts when you see a dead person whether it's at a funeral or wherever else you might see one.

I think about who they were in life, don't really know what to think about the dead part yet.

LOL.OK I have been studying Wicca for a few months now and never read a book on Wicca. I learned from people and online trusted information. But today I picked up my first book and I liked it and it flowed well for me and it helped me.

But what is your opinion on the book? Have you read it? Is t fluffy?

Please share. Even if it's negative.

I asked the question "What's the difference between soul and spirit?", and I got some answers. But who made this distinction?

From the Bible, how is it known that the spirit and soul aren't the same thing?

"Ali Murad Abu Shaweesh was 12 when Israeli soldiers shot him in the back. Ali was killed on the same day in June, 2001 that Sharon refused to let the Israeli foreign minister, Shimon Peres, meet with Yasir Arafat, yet his death also went unnoticed by American television news. But not entirely unnoticed, since the Israeli soldiers, who taunted the Palestinian boys over loudspeakers outside the Khan Yunis refugee camp in the Gaza Strip, goading them to come out and throw rocks, did so under the gaze of Chris Hedges, a reporter for the New York Times.

"Children have been shot in other conflicts I have covered--death squads gunned them down in El Salvador and Guatemala, mothers with infants were lined up and massacred in Algeria, and Serb snipers put children in their sights...in Sarajevo--but I have never before watched soldiers entice children like mice into a trap and murder them for sport," Hedges wrote.
