Society & Culture - 30 August 2007

On the morning of September 1, 2007 --
2,000 year old meteors are going to rain on the earth.

The bible says "Stars will fall from the sky" before the end of days.

Notice how these stars were formed the year Jesus was born?
Sheer coincidence?

Also, science has found a huge gaping hole in the universe.

Is this finally going to be the return of Jesus in the near future?


Note: I'm not saying he is coming back on 9/1/07
but I feel we are very close to the end times.

Is this biblical prophecy?

To see the logic of leaving God out of the equation, consider this:

Frog + Princess's kiss = Handsome prince (fairy tale).
Frog + Millions of years = Handsome prince (theory of evolution).

By definition, no one knows what lies outside their tiny circle of knowledge. Don't be like a blind person trying to convince himself that because he has never seen, everyone else claiming to see must be mistaken.

Will you open your mind and agree?

Why is it that love forms between people from the same sex?
I get scared sometimes as I know that same-sex relationships dont have any real future when it comes to having kids...it makes me kinda sad...but i cant help who i fall in love with and I dont know why God choose for me to love girls....

Do you have any idea why? The reason behind it?
What is the point?


BTW, It's my Birthday today, I'm 19, hehe....:)

Ok, heres another question to those who follow Islam. I am going to keep it in the same respectful line as I did in my earlier question. If I receive the answers to this one the way I did my earlier one, you all honor yourselves well, so here it goes..................



With all of the negative press these past years, when attempting to explain what your religion is, your practices, etc., to the uninformed...or curious..., what do you think is the biggest misunderstanding, and how do you go about clearing it up? And once you do so do you think you have educated them.

Great <-- Greater <-- Greatest: twice fallen Baby-lon
Great --> Greater --> Greatest: twice risen with Christ

Christ isn't seated left (in Moses' Seat) nor standing right (as Jesus) in plural divided heavens on high, but seated right in united heaven: "higher than the heavens". So then it's as if Christ is twice risen fwd to reconcile what's twice fallen bwd.

In John 8 we have twice stooping & twice rising up

Which things are "allegory" and "mystery" to solve

Babylon "is fallen, is fallen": Isaiah...Revelation
Babylon "the Great", is twice fallen bwd to Great

Great speaks of OT Law (Moses' Law)
Greater speaks of NT Law (Jesus' Law)
Greatest speaks of no law law, only grace.

Before I turned my life over to God, I was a moral person. If the gas station attendent gave me $5 extra I would return it to him. I wouldn't lie or hurt anyone. But my standards were my own: I decided what was good and what was bad and acted accordingly.
When I began reading the Bible and doing what Jesus required of me I found that my heart changed.
One of the most bitter times of my life was during a divorce. My husband and I seperated 2 weeks after my father's death. At Christmas time we had an arguement about visitation rights for the kids. He swore at me, I swore back, and then I saw the look on my son's face. Though I wanted to snarl and return the anger directed toward me I asked God to help me control myself. Throughout the divorce I refused to return bitter words. End result? After 4 years we were able to reconcile and our family is back together. During our time apart God worked in both our hearts, and I give thanks to Him daily. Has God changed your heart?

I have heard many people suggest that atheists should just leave believers alone and not challenge their views, usually stating that they're harmless.
My personal feeling is that I will be proud if I manage to change just one person from a believer to an atheist. I think it's our duty as keepers of the rational intellectual advancement of humanity that we spread the word of reason.
I think we need to be proactive: we need atheists to become teachers, to make sure kids don't get brainwashed. We need atheist leaders, to make sure society's key decisions are based on reason rather than bias. etc
Religion may not be evil in and of itself, but it requires people to give up the most precious thing that makes humans different (but not that different) from animals. Our ability for logical deduction and reason. By doing nothing, we allow this to be replaced with fantasy, which distracts us from the reality that we need to build for ourselves as a species.

What are your views?

we call christians who branched out directly from the catholic church as protestants and we hold them dear to our hearts. we refer christians who do not branch out from the catholic chruch as ecclesial communities, whom also play an important role in salvation.

we give all of you good names, we refer all of you as in oneness with us in spreading the Word of God and this is how you guys treat us back.

Those that don't know the virtues:

There are three principles, Truth, Love and Courage.

Honesty is respect for Truth

Compassion is Love of others

Valor is Courage to stand up against risks

Justice is Truth, tempered by Love

Sacrifice is Courage to give oneself in name of Love

Honor is Courage to seek and uphold the Truth

Spirituality is to seek Truth, Love and Courage from one's own self and the world around

Humility is the opposite of Pride - the absence of Truth, Love or Courage

Am I blind or do I plainly see illegal Mexicans everywhere in the USA? As I walk the streets of NYC, I can easily see Mexican druck drivers, Mexican construction workers, Mexicans in almost every field of life. Illegal Mexicans are treated far better than African Americans who are born here and thus have legal status. I see a great contradiction in this land of the free and home of the brave.

Why are illegals being treated better than certain AMERICAN BORN people who are not white?

By the way, I am not black. I am dominican ( a legal hispanic in the USA) who cannot stand what America is slowly becoming.

Is it the general conception that bi's end up cheating with the opposite sex?
I know that some of us bisexuals do mess up, but I want to know is there anyone out there who would give Bi's a chance?
