God is supposed to be loving, and forgiving. How can He send one of His own children to hell if they haven't made the best descions in their lifetime?

I haven't lived that holy of a life. I sin on a daily basis, but deep down I'm still a good person and apologize to God at the end of the day for anything I may have done.

Shouldn't God only send people who are truely evil with no remorse to hell? If He sends good people who happened to have made huge mistakes within their lifetime to hell, does that make Him evil?

Why do you think there is no peace in the world? What do you think we should do as people to make this place a little better? Stop crimes, hate, indiference, jealousy, all these negative feelings and replace them with love, compassion, acceptance, respect and serenity.... Let's bring peace to our hearts and consequently to the world and people around us...

I am really tired of Muslims lying and telling all Non Muslims that Muslims are encouraged by Islam to read the Bible (Old testament and New testament) and Torah. To begin with let me tell you that the Old Testament in the Bible is basically the Torah. The new Testament is the birth and life of Lord Jesus that every Christian is supposed to follow. If a Christian does not follow the New testament he cannot rightfully call himself a Christian.
Also the Old testament(Torah) does not contradict the Quran(Koran). The New Testament contradicts the Quran a lot. For example: The old testament has the law of Retaliation( an eye for an eye), In the New testament Jesus says The law of retaliation should not be applied, The Quran however says the law of retaliation is valid. The Quran does not have teachings of Jesus even though he is a Prophet.
So when Muslims say the Bible should be read by Muslims that is a blatant lie. What they mean to say is the Torah(old testament) should be read?

inspired by an answer to my last question.

You have a woman, she smokes and drinks and isn't going to stop just because she is pregnant. Would you rather her have the baby, birth defects and all, or abort it so it doesn't go through any of that stuff?

Why is it that when you ask anything about God, non believers automatically get offended.....even if you werent saying anything about what they believe or don't believe. Atheist somehow think it is ok for them to voice their opinion on the subject and how dumb we are to believe in God, but if you say anything about the subject you are somehow "disrespecting" them and what they believe....we as christians have a right also!! I don't expect to see eye to eye with people who don't believe there is a God, but i wouldn't disrespect what you believe. Treat others how you would like to be treated.

I heard more that as long as you're not cussing and the musiq is clean that it's ok.

and that's why I heard that artists like Musiq Soulchild, Talib Kweli don't cuss in their musiq and make positive music with a message.

and also why Nas though he did make a few songs like the other rappers most of his material had a message and he heardly ever cusses at all same with Freeway.

What are your thougts?

It could be years, months, days or even hours. Make sure you are prepared for the coming of the Lord.

Do you all agree that there is an unfortunate "I'm right, you're wrong" mentality here on Yahoo Answers R & S?

There's a reason that we call them "beliefs". It's because we BELIEVE something to be true, but we have to keep in mind that we aren't always going to believe the same way.

I just wish we could see a little more tolerance, and a little less self-righteousness.

I know that nobody can truely know for sure, but I'm truely scared of death.

If nothing happens when you die, it's just blackness for eternity. And eternity is a long time, and you're soon forgotten. I can't even wrap my mind around how long forever is.

If you go to heaven or something of the sort, sure you're happy and with people you love, but don't you think you'd get bored? Remember, we're talking FOREVER here.

If you're reincarnated, then everything that you've loved and all the great memories you have are forgotten.

I need some clarity in this subject, any answers are welcome.

The majority of Christians believe in some form of Hell. Some believe the "fire and brimstone" nonsense, and others believe that the seperation from god causes the non-believers to suffer. However, my Mother is an Christian, although she is extremely moderate, so most likely she will be going to Heaven if Christianity is true. What I don't get is if she's in Heaven, how can she be enjoying it since her son, me, is burning in Hell for eternity because I refuse to believe in the Yahweh creator. So, would my mother in fact be depressed in Heaven? Is that even possible? If not, then why not? Does she forget I ever existed? Does she cease to care about my welfare? Are either of those acceptable alternatives?

So I hang with the white girl (thats right "the" because she is the only one in the dept.). She is realitively new. Nobody else seemd to want befriend her, so we eat lucnh together.

She is your average lilly white girl. The first time we went to lunch together all she talked about was how she loved rap. But had no idea who Biggie was (but atleast she knew tupac, but not his songs). I let that slide. then she talks about havin sex with black guys. Pay that no mind. then she starts saying things like "oh, my bad" and "you feel me.?" And I thought that was kinds cute.

But now .... She is starting to make up her own "ebonics" things like "you know it be good homeskie" ... lol ... err ... what?

Yesterday I used the word "miscegenation". adn she said "what be dat" "you be knowin know dat ghetto talk."

I was speeachless. In a way. Its was really said. I never told her what miscegenation meant. There wont be any with her that is for sure.

Some of you have a bad habit of trying to threaten those of us who do not believe as you do with an imaginary punishment, after we're already worm food, that was made up a few hundred years ago. Pitiful.

Scientists say they are 10 years away from creating a single celled life from from scratch. One Harvard University Professor says making a cell membrane is easy.

Now, how does the scientific aspect of Creationsim and Intellegent Design grab you.

Where does this leave the Randomists and Darwinists who say life "just happened" you'll HAVE no PROOF, but SCIENCE will have proof that an INTELLEGENT BRAIN can make life.

How does that grab you, Richard Dawkins.

How does that grab you everyone.

INTELLEGENT DESIGN as a REALITY, to be TAUGHT IN SCHOOLS with FORMUALS

CREATIONISM for LIFE to be TAUGHT IN SCHOOLS

How do the hard core DARWINISTS who can't prove RANDOMISM deal with this reality that is about to hit us from SCIENCE!?
