I mean... all we get is the same old crap all the time. That is why the whole drinking game came into being. Isn't it just a matter of time until all questions become drinking questions?

I can't even see a single question out there I can readily be bothered to reply to now.

Someone giving you a thumbs down, even though what you said was true and had references to back it up, by someone who just doesn't want to accept the truth?

First off I'm a Christian myself, and I just have a question to ask. Would you stay faithful to God if you had a traumatic event happen to you. For example a non christian family member died, how would you react and what would you do. Would you still stay faithful to God? This is something I always think about, because my father is not a Christian, and he's been smoking for 30 years. If he happend to die, I really don't know how I would react. I don't know how I would keep my faith if an event like that happend. It's just been something thats been on my mind. Also I do whatever I can to tell my dad about christianity, I don't force it upon him. But I do tell him about God all the time, and he's been going to my church for two birthdays straight. All I can do is hope that he see's something in me, and decides to change, I can't force it upon him.

The bible uses fornication often, it talks of sex and the like, yet in this passage it says lie. Have we just interpreted this text to fit our needs as a society to condemn homosexuals? Can we truly be sure that our translations are correct? Why would htis passage not say thou shalt not fornicate with a man as with a woman?

Some believe it will be Korea, Philippines or China and some cults claim that He has already come again and will return a third time. Can anyone provide text from the bible to prove their claims ?

What do you think of this? Yeah, I know, it's common sense, but I've seen with my own eyes many people who are greeted and act like they are annoyed somebody said hello or smiled at them. Not just me, anyone from all races and religions. How does this make you feel?

Allah Almighty in the Noble Quran commands us to return a greeting with a better one or at least an equal one. We must maintain the high standards in manners and always be the best examples.

Let us look at Noble Verse 4:86 "When a (courteous) greeting is offered you, meet it with a greeting still more courteous, or (at least) of equal courtesy. Allah takes careful account of all things."

The necessary correlative to the command to fight in a good cause is the command to cultivate sweetness and cordiality in our manners at all times. For fighting is an exceptional necessity while the sweetness of daily human intercourse is a normal need.

a lot of white women are built this way? And also, from what Ive seen most white women are thicker or fatter than most black women. Most black women are skinnier than white women these days. And are black women jealous of fat white women for some reason? It seems like it. Because they seem to always be nice to thin white women, but to thick or fat white women they are mean. And whoever said fat was a good thing? Tree trunks for arms, cottage cheese for butt and thighs, floppy breasts that will sag as you grow older, and a large waistline?
I am not being racist, i am really just wondering---it just seems like a lot of black women brag about how thick they are, and when they see a skinny white girl like me they really brag as if to show off like thyre better than me, and at the same time I wonder why would they brag about being fat? Mind you there's a difference beteween curvy and actually fat. Marilyn Monroe, Beyonce are curvy, Mo'nique and Roseanne are fat.

I teach ESL, and I'm struck by the different linguistic representations of natural sounds. In English a dog 'woof, woof's', in Chinese he 'Wa'wa's (which in English is what babies do). I can't begin to imagine other linguistic representations of this simple natural sound. I'm sure dogs are more unilingual than we humans, or not? Duh?

People say that they are Christian (or anything else for that matter) because they are being on the safe side. Is it really possible to be on the safe side when there are multiple religious groups that claim that unless you follow their teachings, you will go to hell? This means that if you take the teachings of all religious groups into consideration, everyone will end up in hell. If you think about it, hell isn't the only thing involved, but that's my general idea.

Doesn't this mean that people who claim to be Christian just to be safe takes only Christian beliefs into consideration and nothing else?

I'm not questioning Christianity. I'm questioning the said excuse.

i have a friend, who is a Christian.

but, she swears like every other word.

And when I tell her that it's "Not Christian like" She basically says that it's no where in the bible that says that swearing is a sin.

And when I ever say "Jesus Christ", she absolutely flips out on me. I agree I shouldn't say it, and i AM working on it. But is that really worse than saying "F*uck you" or "Shut the f*uck up" ror "Sh*it" every other word?

could anyone give me a bible verse, some kind of proof, etc that i could give her that says that swearing is a sin?

Can't use the argument Koran's text was inspired by God. So was the text of N.T.
