LDS, don't you wish there were wards where you could just show up on Sundays wearing casual attire. One of the main reasons I stopped going was I felt incredibly uncomfortable. I would feel even more uncomfortable being the only person dressed casually. Is there any references in the scriptures that require you to dress as such?

Good or bad, and why?

I know the answer for myself personally just wanted to know what you think. If you feel like it's a danger for you to answer this question, then dont steal points. Simply dont answer.

if it was predetermined and necessary to fulfill God's plan. What if someone had actually stopped it from happening? Would that person be reviled for thwarting God's plan??

sociable so that others understand that you are good people and you have a great religion.
I really get pissed off when I see an answer that insults any of the three major religions. I am a Muslim and I too suffer from the same problem that you guys suffer from. If we have got some bad people in our "group", others consider us all bad ;this is weird.
People don't want to understand that not all Jews are zionists and they don't want to admit that there are good zionists.
Also non-muslims don't want to understand that not all muslims are terrorists. I really condemn terrorism and unfortunately I can not do anything about that alone. Islam also condemns terrorism and suiside bombing but those extrimists who calim to be muslims and bomb people in the name of their religion are that first 'enemies to Islam'

I am saying that because most of my neighbors are Jews (It is in Ottawa) and I've never spoken with any of them. I really would like to have a jewish friend but I am afraid...

Judi tried to sell her old car. She was having a lot of problems selling it, because the car had 250,000 miles.
One day, she told her problem to a friend she worked with at a salon. Her friend told her, "There is a possibility to make the car easier to sell, but it's not legal." "That doesn't matter," replied Judi, "if only I can sell the car." "Okay," said Judi's friend. "Here is the address of a friend of mine. He owns a car repair shop. Tell him I sent you and he will turn the counter in your car back to 50,000 miles. Then it should not be a problem to sell your car anymore." The following weekend, Judi made the trip to the mechanic. Two weeks later the friend asked Judi, "Did you sell your car?" "No," replied Judi, "why should I? It only has 50,000 miles on it!"

if they were NOT perfect, then why did god make something imperfect?

if they WERE perfect however, then why did they sin by eating the apple? (please don't answer with "freewill". it's entirely possible to have freewill and still not sin. for example, god has freewill and doesn't sin, right? so even though adam and eve had freewill, that still doesn't explain why they sinned if they were perfect. what other reason is there then for why someone perfect would have sinned?)

Why would people encourage others to learn how to deal with life without turning to a substance that they believe helps keep them emotionally afloat?

Is it wrong to try to point out the flaws in their reasoning?

WASHINGTON - People view Hillary Rodham Clinton and Rudy Giuliani as the least religious of the major presidential candidates, according to a poll released Thursday. Mitt Romney was seen as most religious, but his Mormonism may hurt him with voters.

The other day was my second day of college. There was a big mess up in classrooms and therefore a group of students including me missed a class and sat in on another math class. Eventually later in the day we found our prof. and got our sylibus. I must have accidently picked up the professor's book while I was at her desk (they look identical). I came home and saw that I had a teachers edition book in my bag. I emailed her right away and asked if she was missing her book. Turns out she emailed my yahoo account (weird!) earlier..and before I checked that email I emailed her with my school account. I explained the situation and apologized and went in today to drop off her book to her assistant. When I went the assistant was like oh so you were the one who stole the book. I feel horrible..I didn't steal the book..I already have one! What should I say to the prof? I have class tomorrow

You're sitting in rush-hour traffic, waiting for the red light to change green, and the instant it does, the behemoth on your bumper starts honking.

Sorta makes you want to go even slower, doesn't it?

I remember watching a talk show a long time ago where this family came on that had like 14 kids and the only reason they had that many was because they didn't believe in birth control. They thought that by using it, if God had planned for them to conceive at that time, they would be 'rejecting' him or something by blocking the conception. And when asked if they were going to have more, they shrugged and said we'll see, which basically meant we're going to have a sex life and if we get pregnant, so be it.

Do you agree with them? I don't...I think it's kind of irresponsible, even if you can support them all...

i wanted to ask a few questions first that is really confuesing me. ok God/Jesus said in heaven everything will be ok, no more pain and all that good stuff. but like if you went to heaven, and one of your relatives died, (or friend) and you found out that they are not in heaven like you, and the only other place they could be is in hell. How could you ever be happy then? knowing someone thats close to you is in hell for eternity? im not questioning god or anything, but i can't help but be curious =/.

Obviously as Meat Bot has so graciously explained to us on several occasions, God cannot have all the qualities you attribute to him, because he would then be self-contradictory. So, is it okay to think of him as limited in certain ways, or do you just chalk it up to not fully understanding God's "mysterious" ways?

2007-09-06 12:59:03 · 10 answers · asked by Linz ♥ VT 4 in Religion & Spirituality

Or do you think we do? I have been to some churches where scripture is not even mentioned very much except when they are trying to twist it around to fit their own doctrine, why is it that Christians are content with this? What happened to the prophesy that Jesus taught? Do you think some preachers are afraid to preach on Revelations? What say you, Christian? May the Lord bless you!
