If God's real, he wouldn't be physical, He'd be spiritual. How are you supposed to get physical evidence from something that's spiritual? What kind of evidence do you want exactly? A tissue sample of God's skin?

We Christians are supposed to be close-minded, but I find that it is the secularists that are actually afraid of really being challenged, since they actually block someone who doesn't blindly worship their lame verbal quipping.

have to condemn people? And don't tell me "only God can condemn, but God doesn't condemn, you condemn yourself". Why do you feel the need to defame anyone who is not Christian or anyone who "sins"? I thought that was your "god's" job.
I am only concerned with the social ramifications of your religion on me. I do not fear any of the threats of hell, I am only concerned with how dishonest Christians are and how malicious and slanderous they are in their wishes to ostracize people and villainize people.

God.

Have we ever considered that maybe, just maybe He appears differently to different people and cultures?

Maybe He is the Abrahamic God (and Jesus) to Christians and Jews.

Maybe He was Zeus or Odin, a couple thousand years ago.

Maybe to the Pagans She is a Goddess.

Maybe to the American Indians and New Agers He/She is in everything, and in everyone.

Does that truly change all the rules of what the Lord is? I don't think it does, necessarily...

What are we all taught? Christian, Jew, Pagan, Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, Humanist, Universalist....we are taught to be "good". Good thoughts, good deeds. Don't lie, cheat, steal or kill. Treat others as you would like to be treated. Material posessions aren't everything. Hell, Kharma, Purgatory, Threefold...

So if the very core of our beliefs are all basically the same, is it so crazy or illogical then to think that maybe God just IS, no matter what name you call Him by? All Gods are one?

I need to translate the phrase "The Subject of My Sanity Makes Me Insane" for an art project. I'm shooting for accuracy here, as I can't make adjustments once I've started. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

(No links to Babelfish or other online translators, please. I really need this to be accurate.) Thank you.

1.
I used to see that 'present perfect tense' and 'present tense' are combined in one sentence.
But I haven't seen that 'present perfect tense' and 'past tense' are combined in one sentence.
Is it possible to use above case?

2. Is this right sentence?

'According to her manager, it was the first time that Nancy has had to postpone a show due to her health.'

Why?

1. Lame attempt to establish a catchphrase.

2. Inability to come up with a new question.

3. Metal plate in head needs re-adjustment.

Personally, I'd go with #3. I've dealt with a few schizophrenics in 'real' life, and CommonSense's (sic) posts have that special Timecube Guy tang to it. Not just the incessant repetition of 'What say you all', but the convoluted and indecipherable posts.

So, what say you all about Mr. What Say You All?

I have a bunch of weird stuff that happens to me like out of nowhere i will think of somebody then they call me sometimes i know who's calling before i answer( without looking at caller Id) Im in toon with people and their energy and know their intentions. I feel like im searching for something or something is surching for me but I'm sort of afraid for some reason..I know it sounds mental and i can hardley believe that im saying this but i think i need too.

I'm a massage therapist and when im working with someone i can feel their needs in their body and the client feels it too..they tell me i have a good touch or a good connection , good results from me...

It's just awkward for me..This all happens without words being spoken

America seems to be falling behind more and more compared to other countries. We are behind in literacy and education. The dollar is behind many other world currencies. And it just seems like America is kind of in a sad state. What is your take on this? Is it because of our lax education and half asses views on science(intelligent design)? What can be done to help out America?
