I believe it is stupid that having sex with a person underage is always and immediatly classified as 'rape'. I'm not implying that underage sex shouldn't be taken seriously but find it extremely unfair that regardless of the situation the burden is always placed upon the person of age and therefore they are labeled a rapist ....Agree or disagree?
Please feel free to express your thoughts.

Asking a easy question like 'what are you having for tea?' gets a big response yet asking a question that requires thought and reflection gets fewer answers?

If we all banded together & wrote YQ&A about our problem(s) and also told them how our area was the best kept, kind, considerate, & the help we have given to others, etc. they just might take a better look at us.
I am also sending a message to the AP news about this too for we are NOT like the other areas on Y Q&A.

Why dont christians die like jesus ? Do christians think they are sinless or something?

go n stand in front of a cross, ask their neighbors to nail them up. I think that would be the best way to go to heaven(I died for my sins).

My friend has a relative in her early 60's who plans to go back to college to earn her Ph.D. She is retired and has no intention of going back to work. My friend thinks this is "ridiculous," a waste of money, and "stealing a seat" from a younger person who will use the degree. What are your thoughts on this matter?

what are the most pressing issues that are getting ignored

2007-09-26 23:48:19 · 10 answers · asked by Greg R 1 in Other - Society & Culture

Biblical parallels having been brought to my attention:

2 Samuel 21:1 & 2; 1 Chronicle 24:1 & 2,

brings me to something my friend told me about. He says that our popular image of "Satan" as "The Devil" and also our visual conception of Hell as a physical place, originates largely with Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy. In this story, he told me, The Lucifer is essentially God's dark angel. Since I have yet to read the Divine Comedy, can anyone who is familiar with the work tell me if this is somewhat what it talks about?

When I talked to my friend, a Jehova's Witness, she told me that they do not belive in "Hell" and helped me research it. I was pretty floored at what I found. This so, I've become more interested in "Just where does this idea originate, really".

Any help: much appreciated.

...and death meant ABSOLUTE OBLITERATION OF ANY FORM OF EXISTENCE, including but not limited to ERASURE OF THE SOUL...

...AND any references (in the Bible) to God's punishment were expressed in such a way that they could not be misconstrued to mean otherwise...

...how do you think Christianity's impact on history would have been different?

Each messenger from the God had brought to his nation (Directly or indirectly) 4 item to make them successful & blissful. These are :
1- Justice
2- Morality
3- Spirituality
4- Science
On the other hand, it doesnt mean that they have brought/given all these items directly to their nations. In some other ways they made their nations to search for in order to take them by themselves.

My fiancee is in the airforce. He's been stationed 6,000 miles away for the last two months. However, he's home this week to visit me.

My friend told me that she and her boyfriend wanted to go out with us to dinner to celebrate his return. Then I get a call from friend saying that we couldn't have dinner until 7:30 (instead of 4:30 as planned) because bf had other plans.

Even though finacee and I are starving, we wait to eat until 7:30. When we arrived at their house her bf was like, "I ate a really big sandwich while I was out. I don't feel like going out to another dinner" etc, etc.

I was PISSED. We ended up not having dinner with them

Hi I am a pizza delivery man, and my customers always ask me: " How Are You" (Хаваю) It is the most useless, retarded question a stranger can ask. It shows their ignorance to you and how fake they are. If you dont mean it, just dont say it. It is not like anybody cares about my lifestory anyways. And if I am not OK, I will say I am not. If it is something people say to be nice or polite, it is better for them not to say anything at all. Or else mean it that you really care how I am!
