I am a Christian. I belive that Christ died for our sins, and I accepted him as my lord and saviour.

With that said.. back to the main topic.

I have noticed dozens of questions completely bent on discriminating against someones beliefs or religion. Thats not what duiscussion is all about. I don't believe in evelution, but that doesn't mean that I go around saying, " Evelutionists are so blind, they did so and so, and believe so and so.. man they are retarded ". Thats not fair to the evelutionists that don't believe in whatever the topic was.

Same goes with Christians, or Buddists. I hate questions that single out a GROUP of people, and condemn the entire people that follow that group to being the same way, or stupid for what they believe. One question asked why - ALL - Christians make fun of other religions. Thats not true.. I wouldn not EVER say someone was foolish for being Muslim, or anything else.. because Gods Word says to respect every religion, even if they are wrong.

I am a young catholic college student, even so, I like reading about other religions of the world just so I can have a better perspective of the world. I was recently reading a book that mentioned that there is no life after death in Judaism, but didn't elaborate any further. Is this true? Can anyone provide further insight? Thank you very much!

I use lactation software, so my computer infer prints everything I say and types it up for me. Unfortunately, it seems my fixation software dozen always do as its gold.

I've cried using men in different accents, but it always gets it long.

Is my commuter obsessed by Tragic White Toes?

I ask this, the news and the events in revelation the book of the Bible has a lot in common. Making it true that the son of God is coming back. And those who believed in Him, Knew His ways, and the other didn't know His ways, but knew mens way. And the judgement on those who will perish and those who will enter in. Any one that calls on His name will be saved, and He will answer back.

jesus got married (it doesnt say he didnt got married either) does it mean he didnt got married??
in the bible doesnt say that mary died so does that mean mary is still alive? the bible doesnt say what happened with jesus when he was 16, does it mean jesus was never 16?

well, my story is i'm 15, i still look at guys and say to myself, oh hes cute or whatever but its not like when i see a girl. and that brought me to realize that i'm more attracted to girls than guys. but i have been noticing girls more than guys since i was about 9.. like saying oh shes pretty to myself lol so, i know im not straight. but im not sure when would be a good time to come out. i have been waiting for my parents to give the "its okay to be gay speech" since i was 12 and it has yet to happen. but im kind of scared to tell my mom because though she's not exactly fond of the lesbian/gay community. i think my father might be okay with it though... you never know though, he could flip worse than my mom. well my real questions are when is a good time to come out (and please dont just say whenever youre comfortable because id be fine doing it at any time... i just want to do it when it will leave the least damage.) and how could i go about telling my friends?

Not going too well so far. I wonder if Jesus was labeled an "idiot" though, hm?!

Seriously though: what do you think is/was needed?

This came from the Prophet Muhamad's last sermon some 1400 years ago.

"an Arab has no superiority over a non-Arab nor a non-Arab has any superiority over an Arab; also a white has no superiority over black nor a black has any superiority over white except by piety and good action."

Islam; the first religion to promote human equality? =D Thanks.

I am not asking what religion but any religion. Just learn to be spiritual.

at most Christians are wasting their time because they doomed themselves years ago. Teenages always doubt just about everything about the holy spirit and the Bible, at least for a time.

Holy Spirit.

How do you know?
Do you just start getting a feeling with people.. Like their aura or whatever.
I'm not completely sure I believe in this kind of thing but I'm looking into it.
I would appreciate honest answers from people who actually believe in this kind of thing. I'm very curious about it.
The question is not very specific.. But I'm not entirely sure how to word it.
Hopefully it makes enough sense.

Hmm...If the earth completely flooded, wouldn't all bodies of water had been connected? Meaning all bodies of water would have become salt-water, that in mind, wouldn't all freshwater animals had died? I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt and saying Noah didn't bring them on the Ark..

Oh one more, this was buggin' me too..

There are certain animals that /only/ eat certain animals or plants. Did Noah actually have every kind of soil on the Ark, growing every kind of plant to keep the animals alive? Even weirder, how did he feed those animals that only eat a certain type of OTHER animal. Example, there's a certain bird that only eats a certain type of snail.. Now since both the snail species, and the bird species still exist, I guess they didn't die in the flood. How did he feed the bird if he only brought two of them snails?

No flaming please, serious questions.

I really want to feel his presence. I wan't to feel at peace and like he's always there. I pray every night to ask Him to come live in my heart, but nothing ever seems to change. No stupid jokes please. This is serious.

I'm sending a friend of mine a medicine bag (along w/ a few candles and other things) and I want a few sugestions on what else to put in it, so far my ideas are rose quartz, quartz, amethyst, kyanite, smoky quartz, sodalite, melachite, unikite, titanium flame, and dumortiertite

these wont all be carried at one time but I want him to be able to chose from stones that will probably be helpful to stick in the bag to carry around.

info on him, he's a cancer aswel as a little bit of what ppl refer to as an indigo ((though he's mostly intune with his higher 4 chakras)), and a musician. he's prone to depression, spiritual attacks, and recently alot of emotional trauma problems from the past aswell as newer situations have been a problem for him.


please DO NOT answer this question with telling me stones do not work or anything of that nature, only honist ansewers please, any info that comes to mind helps :)
