I believe in God and thats all I know. I dont want to do my confirmation because I'm too busy and I see it as a waste of time. All it is for is to confirm your faith in God right ? Well I confirm it by believing it. Why do I have to take classes to confirm this ? What are the consequences of not doing this ?? I mean I dont think there are anything because comparing me and a confirmed kid doesnt make them anymore of a believer than me...so please someone help because classes are starting soon and I need to know...If you dont have a smart reply and just a plain "do your confirmation" dont reply at all..

- "saved"

- "you're going to hell"

- "read the Bible"

- "Catholics are wrong and we are right"

-"it's not in the Bible"

I wanted to send some emails in Simplified Chinese to a friend in China as her English is not very good. I have got the text translated by using the free www.google translate. I copy and paste the translated text to my email and send it to her, but she told me it was not Chinese but something else. More of unregconisable sentences like I was "scolding" her she said. Please help me how to solve this problem. Thanks.

Are there any documents, manuscripts or mentions of jesus before Paul wrote of him in his epistles?
And could you please if possible provide a link to a reference on it. Thanks

I asked this a while ago and got nothing but answers about the historical proofs of jesus, that is not what I am asking so no Josephus or Titus or anything after Paul please.

So I had a dream that the end was here, here is what I seen...

At first I was looking into a screen, I don't know what it was for, but it had ''the end is near'' wrote on it. I believe that it was sort of a wake up call for me... to be ready.

Then I seen Jesus coming down the the clouds, I started flying all over the sky like crazy, I didn't understand why...

Later, I had another dream, I think it was a continual to my previous one... stood before me were the real Jesus, and the AntiChrist. One had a sword in his hand. The other didn't. one kept said to me ''I never knew you.'' While the other kept telling me he was the only true Jesus. It was confusing. But end the end I chose the one with the sword.

Also, it says in the bible that before the end will come, people will have lots of technology, well just look around and you can see thats true. We're using technology right now just on the computer. Please, tell me, how could they know this? But it happened right?

My parents come from a culture that's very community/family-based but I instead seem to be the opposite. I prefer quiet nights at home, small groups and individual attention. No one else in my family seems to mind a house crowded full of guests but for me it drives me crazy. I prefer the space and the quiet-ness. As a result, my entire family thinks I'm this mean cold-hearted person. Am I in the wrong here? Should I try to be more open?

OK- This christmas were going to my boyfriends parents house and they want to do this:everyone buy a gift up to $75.00
wrap it and don't tell anyone what it is, then we pick a # and whoever goes first gets to pick which gift he/she wants to unwrap. What my question is -WHAT CAN I GET, TO GIVE??
I HAVE NO CLUE, AND I CAN'T ASK MY BOYFRIEND OR HIS SISTER BECAUSE THEY MAY GET MY GIFT AND IT HAS TO BE A SUPRISE TO THEM....... I was thinking maybe a couple of little presents in one. They are rich people too so they probably already have whatever i get them!!!! I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO!!!! THANKS FOR YOUR TIME!!!!!!!!!!

Hi, If my daughter, who is five, can't go to a birthday party, should she still give something ie:gift, card, etc? I don't know if she should just give a birthday card and say that she is sorry that she can't make it. Or does she need to do anything at all? This is one of my daughter's good friends.

Also if she isn't going, do we need to call the parents to tell them that we are not able to go, or just not contact them and assume that they will understand that we won't be going.

Thanks for any help.

Abandon me because i choose to live my life differently? Even as christians should they disown me....act as if i wasnt apart of the family. I'm slowing trying to come back to god. But i dont need them to push and force things to happen. For the last 10 years they refused to see me. They wont even talk to me on phone. I have spoken to them on the phone a total of 5 times over the last 10 years and half the time say forget my name or refuse to say "I love you" back to me when i say it to them. I know that homosexuality is not condone by god. But im dealing with things they do not even understand. They say even seeing me would be a sin, they would say "its okay" for me to be gay if they were to see me. From another christian i would like thier opinon on this...would you walk away from your son or daughter? Someone that you once pushed out of your body..someone you raised. How can a mother do something like this and have christ's love in her? shouldnt she be loving me unconditionally?
