Christ's whole life was a self-denying, self-displeasing life. This is from a commentary on Romans 15:1-7 and I know it but in trying to be more like him, it always helps me to remember WWJD and it is always a struggle for us humans when it comes to our weakest point. I like to keep stories and ideas in my head. I know of course he gave up his life, but I mean smaller stories

my son is twelve, he doesn't believe in god, nor does he think god is a possibility, therefore, he's an atheist, right?

Probably even the anti-believers believe that they did.But go ahead and tell me why it was such a poor idea to base their idea on "one nation under God" .And why it was a bad idea.

Theres this old house im in, theres a furnace that you have to keep re filling in order to stay warm, if the water goes down you have to go down to the basement and re fill it. You cant even go anywhere or leave your home for more than a couple days in the winter because if you do the water will go down and the pipes will burst and youll come home to a dangerously ice cold home and have to call a repair man. Why did the landlord do this? they just installed a new one and its the same kind , are they cheap or something? what do they expect? you not to go anywhere during the winter and stay attendent to the heater?

In the US and Europe when slavery was legal how did the Christian church justify these racist actions? Arent all men supposed to be equal?(doesnt the bible say this) Were blacks not considered men? Than why are they considered men today? What changed?

Did the church do anything to stop slavery? Did it promote slavery?

PS I'm not racist

I hear a lot of bickering between people who have had it hard in the US, like "my people went through this, and your people didn't, and so on."

I feel this oppression is not so much a learned experience, but one that gives them free passes, and competition with each other as to whom has had it worse.

Am I the only one who see's this?

P.S. I'm gay in case anybody states I'm some white dude who doesn't experience hate.

In English, proper nouns are capitalized. The names of the days of the week and the months of the year all are capitalized, but not the names of the seasons, why?

Also, does anyone know the origin of the silent "N" in autumn?

Billions of years ago, a big bang produced a large rock. As the rock cooled, sweet brown liquid formed on its surface. As time passed, aluminum formed itself into a can, a lid, and a tab. Millions of years later, red and white paint fell from the sky, and formed itself into the words "Coca Cola 12 fluid ounces."

Of course, my theory is an insult to your intellect, because you know that if the Coca Cola can is made, there must be a maker. If it is designed, there must be a designer. The alternative, that it happened by chance or accident, is to move into an intellectual free zone

Have just recieved the Holy Ghost at a rally last Friday. I wear pants, makeup, and I cut my hair. Ever since last Friday I have been listening to Christian music (ex: Casting Crowns). I really want to dedicate my life to God to the greatest extent, but I do not want to grow my hair out and I still want to wear pants, not skirts. Am I sinning by doing this?

I know its good manners to hold the door for the person behind you but I am not obligated to do it. Am I the only person that says thank you when someone holds the door for me?

I take Philosphy of Religion, and i was wondering if someone could kindly explain to me, wether God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit are all the same God. If so, Does this one God split into three? And is it possible for Jesus to be both human and God at the same time?

I don't want ot say 'ta-ra' because too many people around where I live say it. I'm feeling uncomfortable saying 'bye' because it sounds really cold when I say it to my dad and daughter, and it sounds like my mother(!) I need another way to say it.
