did you know when you sell food to atheists, you allow them to receive the nourishment they need in order to sustain their lives and thus go out into the world and spread logical thought which denies the existence jesus or any god that matter? way to support atheism!!! and seeing as how atheism is growing faster around the world every day, you're doing a bigger part to support the growth of atheism than we atheist are doing to help spread the gospel.

why do you fear to beleive in Jesus Christ? If you would just give it a try, with a sincere heart, with faith that he could exsist, maybe this could be a wonderful, calming thing in your life. Give it a try!

Just want to gather some research information on the topic of Casting of Lots. So wondering if anyone has any good credible resources they could suggest checking out on this topic. I would like something that is just stating facts, rather then try to be religious. So far from my research, I can guess that it's a form of lottery/divination to learn God's will.

I'm also curious on what was used to Cast Lots (paper? clay? stone? sticks? coin?)

So far all I have is information from the bible.
Jonah 1:7 is one example I have:
"And they said to one another, "Come, let us cast lots, that we may know on whose account this evil has come upon us." So they cast lots, and the lot fell on Jonah."

When will people of color be accepted for who they are instead of who they know or what sport they can dominate, "Tiger Woods, Michael Jordan, The Williams sisters." Why do white people still feel threatened and feel they have to make harsh moves to save their race. Whites are the minority in America if you didnt know. Im not hispanic, but go Hispanics!!

I was raised to go to church every Sunday, and be a good Christian. But something happened a few years ago to change all of that.

My parents have always been very abusive, mentaly and physically. Which doesnt make sense, because they were supposedly very religious, right? I know, I agree. Anyway, one night (I was 19) my dad really beat me badly, and I ran away from home. But that wasnt even the worst part.

My father was arrested becase I was so badly battered. Between then and the day he went to trial, my entire extended family dissowned me. NO ONE would talk to me or see me. Why, you ask? They said it was becasue I had sinned by having him arrested. But the thing is, I had NOTHING to do with that. Its mandatory that the cops arrested him, becasue there was physical evidence on me. And even if I HAD turned him in, he deserved it!!

Am I the only one tired of reading stupid posts from modern day hippies, college students that want to fight authority, or just ignorant people.

Am I the only one tired of reading the stupid comments about Bush being compared to Hitler, Blackwater being called mercenaries, people not understanding why 6 kids are in jail for severely beating another kid, anti government rhetoric, police hating, and other ignorant posts?

These people need to educate themselves, grow up, gain some life experience, and think critically of things they read, and put down the pot.

Don't get me wrong, I support freedom of speech, I helped defend it. Everyone with a head on their shoulders sound off!

I am a Christian farmer. I am a member of a fundamential Baptist church that supports missionaries around the world. I give a portion of my income to support missions. Therefore when you buy food that has farm products in it, a portion of your money comes back to me so I continue to support missionaries who spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ . Thank you! Will you stop eating now?

Just for fun, are there any Christians on Y! that know what the "Q" document is and how it relates to the bible?

I am curious to see how knowledgeable people are about their faith.

I know this sounds pretty crazy. It just seems I have been living with a black cloud over me for awhile now. Things seem to always end up bad...I am a good person, with an education, etc.

Cows. In the first grade we went to a dairy where I fell in love with the smell of cows. I still love the smell of cows. They also remind me of my high school friend who went waterskiing with us. We were in the back of the car "mooing" at all the cows along the country roads. We laughed so hard that to this day we have a secret word that always makes us laugh... moo!

I am going through a really rough time in my marriage right now. My husband has fallen to satan and worldly ways. He is entangled in sin and temptation. He does not know how to get out or just isnt ready cause satan has a tight hold on him. I love him though and decided that I will stand by my husband and pray diligently for God to work on my husband and bring him back to me a strong, faithful and commited husband and christian. Any advice or scriptures to be given for strength and power and endurance as I go through the hardest thing in the world? Also, please pray for my family and my husband. He is acting in a worldly, satan bound manner and that is not him. I know the real, good and true christian and husband that he is. Thanks for all your help in advace.

Israeli Population – 6 Million
US Tax Dollars Per day to Israel – 10 to 5 Million.

CIA World Factbook: https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/is.html

Population: 6,426,679
note: includes about 187,000 Israeli settlers in the West Bank, about 20,000 in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights, and fewer than 177,000 in East Jerusalem (July 2007 est.)

American Financial Aid to Israel:

2006 : Military $2.28 Billion, Economic $290 Million

Total of $2.57 Billion

Is the Equivalent of $428.33 per Israeli citizen for that year.

300,000,000 Americans give $8.56 to the 6,000,000 Israeli’s

That just doesn’t seem fair.

I am 40, I have been giving Israel anout $8 per year tax and interest free for about 25 of those years.

I figure with interest I am owed $225.00 - Can I have it back?
