I watch like 3 white TV comedy shows that are white(Frasier, Everybody Loves Raymond, and King of Queens,) because they are actually funny. But most shows I've seen that are white are so corny that they make me fall asleep.

I'm not saying black shows aren't corny either(because some are) I'm just saying that there are WAY MORE FUNNIER black comedy TV shows than white shows. And FRIENDS is SO NOT FUNNY, I tried to watch it but it was TOO CORNY!!

You can't tell me that you think TV show "Friends" was better than "Martin" Even many whites watched "Martin" It was once (when it was on) the funniest show in America.

I know VERY FEW blacks that will watch "friends" willingly.

I know people have different opinions on what's funny. I'm just saying that black comedy shows, are just as funny or funnier than their white counterparts.

i find the christianity practised in the east and 3rd world countries to be still backward because those christians still hold on to lots of primitive tribal customs and superstitions.

in contrast i find the christianity practised in the west to be very progressive and free of tribal customs and superstitions

am i right christian friends?

All christians care about is going to heaven.
They do good and dont lie, cheat steal etc...because they want to go to heaven.
Why not just do good. Don't lie, cheat and steal because you know its wrong. Why do u need a reward for not doing those kind of things?

There is a disdain for black people within the Asian culture? I've heard that Asians don't like black. What have blacks done to them?

i am 15 years old and consider myself to be a liberal christian. the problem is that the rest of my family is conservative. me and my parents (mostly mom) get into arguments about different topics. for example i think that homosexuality is wrong, but i would (and do) support my gay friends and think there is nothing wrong with them choosing that lifestyle for themselves. as with my mom, she would say that homosexuality is totally wrong and that i should stay away from gay people. other topics include swearing, taking the bible literally or figurativelly, secular music etc. so i want to know what you think about either conservatives or liberals and just your beliefs in general. thank you.

Transaction fees can be brutal.

For that matter, since God can forgive everyone's respective sins....why did Jesus have to die at all?

***Please no "God murdered his son to show us how much he loved us" until you pause to realize how absurd and apologetic that is.

I had to take drastic measures tonight though I am still alive in two ways. I am not used to level 1, nor being without my trusty orange badge. I am weak and afraid. I feel some may find my avatar name offensive. I feel like there is a bull eye’s on me tonight. How do I regain my faith in religion or in spirituality?

Chaotic weather would be prevalent (Luke 21:25-26).

Jesus foresaw the seas and the waves roaring in the last days. He also likened these signs to birth pangs (Matthew 24:8). The Greek word odin, often translated as sorrows in Matthew 24:8, literally means birth pangs. Furthermore, the apostle Paul reminded us that the creation itself will be delivered from the curse at the end of the age (Romans 8:21). And that the whole creation groans and labors with birth pangs (Romans 8:22). As delivery draws near, birth pangs always increase in both intensity and frequency. Therefore, the creation itself would travail as the time of delivery draws near. Of course chaotic weather is not new, but there are indications that we are witnessing an increase in strange weather. (Global warming anyone?)

Why everyday on Yahoo answers we have to read why whites and African Americans stereotyping each other? Everytime a question like this comes up it brings out the whites against the African Americans and the African Americans against the whites? Can't we just have fun answering peoples questions without bringing race in to it?

I want to find something online that I can jot down notes for, and then go sit with them and read the Bible and apply the lesson. I can't believe what a hard time I have had trying to find anything like that. I have two girls, ages 7 and 8, and I want to be able to read them a passage, and apply it to their lives. I'd appreciate any help.

"When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his throne in heavenly glory. All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people one from another ... "Then the King will say to those on his right, 'Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.' "Then the righteous will answer him, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison..Matthew 25:31-46

To admit that the biggest reason they became christians and remain so is out of fear of the imaginary place known as hell

Let's try a hypothetical question: Say we knew each other, and I was willing to buy as many years of your life you are willing to spare at $1,000,000 a year. The catch is you don't know if I will kill you to take the years or if I have "some other arrangement" in mind. I have assured you, though, it will be years from the end of your life if I did intend to take those years through death (for the sake of argument, I can figure out how long you will live).

Would you take me up on the offer and why, and how many years would you sell?
