Society & Culture - 11 September 2007

A weird question. I was job searching and someone suggested Danier Leather as a great place to work, but the stores I went into I notice at 100% of the time the clerks are women. I mean they sell stuff for both men and women....plus I personally wouldn't mind working with women who are always looking sexy in leather pants.... haha!

It seems like a nice place to work and the people there were nice and helpful.

As a Christian, I've always wondered about this, and I want to know what you think:

A man lives on an isolated island in a tribe that's had little change in a thousand years.
He lives an incredible life- he's kind to EVRYBODY, helps any one in need, and always considers other people before considering himself.
Then... he dies. (naturally.....)

He never had an opportunity to hear about Christ... No missionaries were ever able to come and teach him! He only knew what was taught to him on the island.

Does he go to heaven?


This doesn't just apply to islanders... any one who hasn't even had the opportunity to be saved, but they still live completely wonderful, righteous lives.

Do they go to heaven?

What would you do if you died and Allah, or Zeus, or Bob the builder was up there, a very unhappy camper with you?

Just curious.

what is "saved?" someone told me I won't go to God when I die b/c I have not been saved and wasn't baptized. I beleive in God and I pray and stuff. I read something online a few years ago that said to repeat it out loud it was accepting Jesus as your Lord and Savior. I repeated it out loud - does that mean I'm saved or not. Also i am non denominational am I still a Christian or not?

I asked a previous question to this but people wanted more info. Here's the article-- http://www.wtov9.com/news/14047414/detail.html#

Now this woman who left a 2 year old child in her car for eight hours (and the kid died) is not going to get any type of punishment. "Union Township police released security camera video on Tuesday that showed that Nesselroad-Slaby returned to the SUV five times during the day, and once moved the SUV to another location in the parking lot." So first, this woman had ample time to notice. Second, she has done this multiple times before-- it wasn't a one-time thing.

She's not getting prosecuted, not even for negligence, child endangerment, or negligent death. I understand she's a mother and losing her child is horrible and she's suffered...but that baby suffered a lot more than she has.

So what do you think about this? Should the law care more about it? Should she get prosecuted? Why or why not? And lastly, please state what religion you are.

Yes, "afterlife", and not Heaven or Nirvana or wherever... just the afterlife. Do you think that all races and religions will meet each other underneath the stars? Will everyone be free of disabilities and disformations? Will we all be blind and deaf to evils? What do you think?

And please, no "it doesn't exist!" comments. I prefer to think that my mind and soul will live on somehow, somewhere, and nothing is going to change that.

The voices never tell people to volunteer to work at a homeless shelter or read to the blind. Its always, "maim, kill, die!!!" Why can't the voices ever help the community?

Keep in mind that this is purely hypothetical.

If God came down from heaven, and told you that Jesus was not his, and that Judaism was the correct religion, what would you do?

I am trying to learn more about Islam, so far i have two very differnt translations of the Quran. (and i am not too impressed with Sam Harris's verbatim quoting of one with a rather low reputation)

Are there any differences in which versions are preffered by different groups?

MixBag - American/British:

1. This family TV show ran from 1952-1966. There were mom, dad, and two brothers, but one would sing a song towards the end of the show.

2. This proper middle-class lady was always correcting people about the pronounciation of her last name, and driving her neighbors crazy.

3. This peaceful bounty hunter, Josh Randall, bought justice to the outlaws that cluttered the plains from 1958-1959.

4. This was a middle-aged Lancashire detective, aided by her bike-riding sidekick and her bemused husband.

5. This Saturday morning favorite from the 70s featured a crime-stopping heroine, who received her strength from an ancient amulet.

6. In 1980, these two raced to repair the space-time continuum, making sure that history stays on its assigned course.

Mini Series Bonus: 1983 gripping crime series set during World War I. This spy risked his life and limb to allow justice to prevail. Based on a true person and actual happening.

I pray to God, and nothing happens. I curse at God, and nothing happens. Likewise with Bob... so how is God more real than him?

Alright I need help with what I should be for halloween. Should I be a mime, clown, hobbit, tiger, peter pan, surfer, skeleton, army dude, blue man group member, the jolly green giant or something else. I'm not a big fan of shoes. I realy want to go barefoot and maybe shortless. And I would probably use body paint of face paint. Any suggestions.
