Could some good Christians please show me in here where it makes it a crime to preach against homosexuality?

If the U.S. becomes a Theocratic nation like some of you want...will you still have physical punishment? From the answers that I have seen, whenever you do something really bad, it is the Devil doing it through you...so does that mean when someone breaks the law, they will not be punished? Since, according to the above line of thinking, it was not you who did the crime, but Satan? And IF you have physical punishment, and if it WAS Satan who "guided" or "posessed" you to do it, where would be the fairness to said person who did the crime, when it really was not him who did it? Just wondering, and OH is this going to be fun....^_^

A retiring Roman Catholic bishop in the Netherlands has been making headlines around the world in recent days with his suggestion that Dutch Christians should pray to Allah.

Bishop Tiny Muskens of Breda, a former missionary to Indonesia, suggested that conflict between Christians and Muslims could be lessened if Dutch Catholics followed the lead of some Christians in Muslim-dominated lands and adopted Allah as the preferred name for God..

In bright colours, and long coats. If you think this is the case why do they want to do it do it, because Jesus didn't do it and they are suppose to be following him. I find that strange.do you.

I've read several posts where Christians say this is what they think of the book, but haven't seen an explanation of why they do.

This is a real question posed on R&S right at this very moment.

Now to all of you out there who think that I am a little bit out of kilter - be happy that at least I have one digit on the pulse of reality!

Okay, I am a proud Athiest. I have many god fearing friends and they all say that they love me but I am going to hell for not believing in God. But my thing is this, if there was a "God" and apparently is a loving and just God, could he/she blame me for not believing the story told throughout history? I mean the story is so far fetched. How the earth was made in Genesis, how Mary got pregnant, how Jesus arose from the dead, and so on and so forth. I mean the story sounds like a bad sci-fi book. So if there is a just and loving "God" wouldn't you think that even though a person doesn't believe in Him/Her but lives a moral life, that person would still go to "heaven"? It just doesn't seem fair...I don't know if this made sense to anyone but yeah...looking forward to reading your replies.

the "myths" section? Isn't this going against "teaching religion at school"? Also, I go to a public school, and I live in a pretty liberal, free-spirited community (not many fundies here), so why is it set up like that? It's kind of annoying that they don't have more respect for other religions...your opinions?

I was in the produce department (why does it always happen in the produce department?) when this cute young employee asked me if I was finding everything OK. I told him I needed to get some cheese. He took me to the other side of the store (I knew where the cheese was) and talked to me all the way. By the time we were there he wanted to know how old I was. I was 60 and he was 37! Then he told me he liked older women... I went home and told my husband. I thought it was pretty funny, but didn't go shopping there for a long time. He only lasted another month at that store. It sure made me feel good though!

I could really use a lot more help from the girl. 9 out of 10 times I'm taking out the trash, scrubbing the toilet, or doing the dishes. That is tolerable. What's getting on my nerves is being left out in the rain so to speak. I need her help to be a reliable roommate for her. She doesn't appreciate that I hate riding my bike home from work in a rainstorm at night, and insists that she's too busy to pick me up. I just hate the fact that she's comfortable with that situation. It tells me that she really resents something about me. What can I do for her to make her feel more inclined to be more helpful in my life?

I doing the whole working and going to school thing and it can be pretty hard on the finances as you are all aware. My school decides to offer this to too Israel and view the Holy Land and to study at a nearby University for a month. I can transfer the credits back to school. I really want to go but need to come up with about $5,500 by the spring. Any ideas?

Hey, if you were interested in dating someone, would you:

A. start dating them first and see how well your relationship will work before asking what religion they were?

Or

B. would you meet them, get to know a little about them, and find out their religion before dating?

If your answer is B., how would you go about finding this out without being rude?

But I'm afraid that when I get there, all the kids (and probably half of the adults, too) will think that I'm one of the rides and start jumping on my back.
