I accidently posted this question in the gay section so i'm going to repost it. If more than 50% of people are having premaritial sex(I'm sure its higher than that), and even some people in my church group are having prematiital sex can I do it to? Will I go to hell even though I can resisit the temptation? Even if I ask god later to forgive me but i could easily have not sinned? If Hitler can murder all those people and ask for forgiveness, can I have some fun with my girls in my bed? I may never get married and then i would really regret it. Speaking of affairs and sex, look at how many great men of the bible that have been brought down because of sex. lol. If Abraham can have and affair can't I sleep with some women?

the guy got married long ago n i m still single (by choice), i m busy n happy wid wot life has to offer, initially i did get bitter wen things failed but in a few months i realised marriage wid the gut would have been much worse so it was good the things went, he was completely out of my mind n is still so, except that sometimes i see their car (not him) on the road, nothing personal tho!, but of late i have noticed this guy frequently comes in my dream either trying to talk to me or just observing me i don't know why n i m pretty confused as i know very well i had moved out of him long back n i was in sort of a communication with some other guy whom i still like ( he has also got married), i m not the kind to hanker on for anyone/anything i take life the way it leads me as thats the best course.

I mean, no matter what the causes are for you to commit suicide? what if you die to save a bigger group of people, like for example, placing yourself in the way of a bullet.
Or what if you live your life to help others, and one day you just decide to take your own life?
Doesn't make sense you go straight to hell for commiting suicide if you're good at heart.

Just wondering if the God warriors will one day snap and believe they're killing Satan by killing non-believers? And if they'll believe this is really what God wants them to do? And I'm also wondering if they'll lose their own lives if they refuse to take up arms for the cause of God when the official battle cry really does go out.

For example sports competitions and games are a chief source of recreation.
Capitalism is based on competition.
War is basically competition.
Evolution: Survival of the fittest--competition again.

Just to make it interesting no god or jesus answers please. While I know it would be many or your first choices, it would make for a very boring set of answers.

So that leaves a whole lot of people left to choose from, so pick anyone, scientists, philosophers, church fathers, political figures.

For me I think i would chose, Sir Isaac Newton. He was a genius among geiuses, and mad as a hatter. For all of the work he is famous for, wasted more than half his career obsessing over alchemy. Fascinating man.

they cry wolf towards those who do and are different from them!

yet - they kill in the name of God, they judge harshly,they committ gluttony ,domestic violence,they sleep around even though they are married ,they molest children , they are greedy in a monetary sense , they abuse children ,they are liars,they preach what they don't follow , they have political agendas and the list goes on and on!

a study at the University of Minnesota revealed that they would trust anyone (Homosexuals ,Muslimsetc..) more so , just as long as it isn't an Atheist!
funny thing is , that they hate the two groups I just mentioned , but they very much hate Atheists! isn't hate something that their Jesus told them not to spread???

would it be safe to assume that they themselves have no morals what so ever , even though they preach us this all the time?????????????

I constantly dream of becoming God. But it isn't a simple wish, it is a dedicated effort. Do I just crave great power? Am I insane? Am I even alone? I'd like to think that with some great dedication, combined with future technologies, I could have the power of an almighty deity. Is it wrong to want to become God?

am 23 and I am finding it really hard being a christian. I am borna again and I am not really sinning i.e. not having sex not drinking not going to clubs etc. I am reading the word and going to church and seeking god but I am finding it so hard and not very much fun. It looks like people of the world are having so much fun and I am not. I feel like giving up but maybe god is testing me?

Any one expereinced this?

I've heard that the Mormon Jesus is different than the regular Jesus.

For those of you who think this, give me chapter and verse in the Book of Mormon that proves this.

And, isn't this just you saying that your god is better than someone else's god? Isn't there some part of the Bible that says you're not supposed to do that?

Let me ask you this:

If you found a watch in the sand, would you automatially assume that it formed by itself? Of course not. The watch is far too complex to come about by accident.

The same things goes for all life on earth. Agree?

Don't you just go crazy when you get on the telephone and are told you have 6 options, so you listen, choose the one you want, press, and then,viola! You get another three or four options. And you are not talking to a human being!

So, we wonder where our time goes? It's the flipping telephone. What used to take a few minutes takes three times as long. And God forbid if you want to talk to the Head Honcho of the Bank or Company.

I find myself putting off all business calls, and emailing or writing letters. That takes time too! It's been a long week!
