God is for all and is word is being sold on the internet as you would a car. I think its an abomination and these people need not think to enter the kingdom of heaven. It says in those same scriptures that they peddle that it would be easier for a camel to pass through an eye of a needle than a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven.
Do you agree with me?

I mean God told us not to worship Pagan Gods and here we are using Pagan symbology to worship God.

Christmas trees, the fish symbol, eggs, stars, crosses, the robes of priests, baptism, marriage, paintings and icons, the praying position, the position of arms raised to give thanks, the last word of the bible Amen (roots in Egyptian Gods), Sunday (day of worship is the day of the sun), the chalice, The trinity, Christmas (falls on the a day of celebration of many Pagan Gods from rome to Scandanavia and is also the winter solstice), holly, mistletoe, being born of a virgin (Attis).

Is Christianity just Paganism in disguise? Is it just a streamlined version of worship where we worship all the Gods in one? Instead of worshipping Monday to Friday we can do it all on Sundays and a few special holidays.

Usually I get onto the Seniors, and I have messages and today, except for a joke, no one has even sent me a message!

It's lonley down here at the end of the world.

Hope you all feel bad.

I mean nobody has seen any of them so aren't they all just as valid as one another?
Muslims believe in Allah just as much as Buddhists or Hindus believe in their Gods and pagans believe in their Gods, and the Greeks believed in Zeus etc and the Romans believed in Jupiter etc and Christians believe in Christ and God.

Wen Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated in April 1968, Robert F. Kennedy made an impromptu speech in Indianapolis, honouring him and calling for the US to unite together, not be divided.
And he said this:

My favorite poet was Aeschylus. He wrote: "In our sleep, pain which cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart until, in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom through the awful grace of God."

I think this was very fitting for Bobby, since he had lost his brother only a few years ago and had gotten to be clsoe friends with MLK - and two months later MLK's death, Bobby was dead himself. I find it very darkly ironic thus... and it's a shame we had to lose 2 of our greatest leaders within a year.
Let me know what you think about the quote. :)

this product called migrastic, which you rub on your head if you have a headache. It gives a warm sensation on the head and helps
a lot. . I has peppermint oil, isopropyl myrisate and other ingredients. Is it permissible to use it in ramadan to treat headaches?

Does a servers service influence the % you tip on the total bill? if so, what factors play into or influence what you consider good service? would you prefer a friendly , witty or interesting server over someone who leaves you alone and just does their job? do you know servers only make 3.25 an hour?

i work at a local white tablecloth establishment and i do VERY well (32k+/yr) but i was wondering what the consensus for normal restaurant goers is regarding tipping.

divinity. This is christians main article of faith. You'd think they'd know while Jesus was with them or did Jesus never say such a thing?
