Saying I am African American identifying only one race rather then say I am proud also to be not only African American but African/Irish American or whatever the other nationality is with the African culture/nationality? I have nothing against mixed races or people of other cultures but I cant understand not being proud or both or denying both and trying to pass for hispanic or American Indian for denial of being bi-racial? With Today being 2007 and so many people intermarrying and religions mixing what is the differance if people know your mixed and being proud of it and showing support for your biological family by acknowledging both God if you believe in God knew what he was doing when you were created and loves you just the same if your all white all black or mixed so why be ashamed?

I believe that it's religion which tells you good from bad.It tells you ...

Not to kill
Not to rape
Not to rob

So I wonder for the atheists, y don't they kill each other? there's no1 (according to u) going to account you for any of ur sins.

For ppl like me who believe in One God, and in the day of judgement,i can't kill sum1. But what is keeping atheists from killing masses?Secondly there shouldn't be any chanrges for killing atheists coz If no Super Being is gonna account us (according to atheist belief) then who are we to account sum1?

You all dont believe because you are too selfish to let go of your transgressions. you like doing something that is wrong so you cast god out of your life. Yes i believe because i have nothing i am judged all the time by people for being me! (persecuted). I am called soft because i chose not to fight over petty things. Even though in the past i have been known for kicking serious butt. Would you like me better if i kicked you in the face NO you would call the cops or say i was wrong! so either way i loose! So YES i belive that by me putting up with the crap people dish out there will be a reward THROUGH FAITH. TRIBULATION WILL HUMBLE! You probably dont believe because you've never had to call on him but the second tribulation strikes and the world turns against you. You will either curse him, seek him out or ask for help from his adversary. THAT WILL PROVE THAT HE EXISTS BECAUSE YOU MIGHT BLAME HIM! I live with the comfort of the word and i am his martyr. IT IS A TEST!

‘God will give someone wealth honour and property, yes, everything he wants, but then will not let him enjoy it, some stranger will enjoy it instead.’

This referes to materialism, what is the message this quote is trying to put across to people?
Please help.

But would turn around and cuss you out if you did something she did not like, belittle you, scream at you. Doing this only behind closed doors. AND THEN when she is out in public or with her friends, her sons, or at church she does "prophetic" like things and is sweet as pie. I am speaking of my MIL does anyone else have a problem like this? How do I stand up for myself and how do I ask my fiance to stand up for me?

At one time I was hardcore anti-believer I listened to the most disgusting heavy metal hate music I openly blasphemed the lord,did drugs etcetc.Finally I was faced with what I had become I didn't like myself,and was forced to search my soul for some meaning in life.Thank God I found it.Now I'm happy and truly content.But I never preach to anyone because I know how innefective it is to anyone without ears to hear.I understand the furvor you feel when you find the Lord it's phenominal,you want everyone to know. But everyone must be left to their own path whether we agree with it or not.What brought you to your knees?What was the straw that broke the camels back?

I have fundamentalist relatives who are always quoting Matthew 13:55. It is clear to me that they are not quoting this verse out of love or concern, but rather to offend Our Lady, the Mother of Our Lord. Why should it matter if Mary is Ever Virgin. Does it take away from the Majesty of Our Lord? Does it harm Christian Faith? I just don't understand these constant attacks against Mother Mary.

Countless times I have explained to my fundamentalist relatives that the original term in the Scripture, "adelphoi" refers to any male relative, including cousins, nephews, uncles, et al.

It is also interesting to note that the Fathers of the Protestant Reformation, including Luther, Calvin, Zwingli, all believed in Mary's perpetual virginity.

... measuring people against His own level of purity, knowing perfectly well that no mortal could approach that standard? Supposedly, the reason Jesus had to die for us is that God needed someone to atone for the sins of mankind who was as pure as God Himself was (i.e. sinless). But why would God require from man a standard He knew we couldn't match in the first place? In court this would be called setting excessive bail...

All the Earths problems are caused by overpopulation. God has always solved this problem by disease, or disaster. Should we just ignore it and wait for his wrath. Or do something ourselves.
