Since it falls on a Wednesday, will you skip the trick or treating with your kids to attend service, or will you skip service to go trick or treating?

Thank you!

In a previous question I received this answer

"Actually, some experiments at the subatomic level has shown evidence of antimatter (neutrinos, for instance). If antimatter collides with matter, they cease to exist, and a great deal of energy is released.

Moreover, some of the nuclear quarks also show evidence of popping in and out of existence, so clearly their is more to reality than just our material 4-dimensional time-space continuum.

Live long and prosper,"

So, could a higher being be something we cannot comprehend as well? I mean, there must be more to reality, if there is anti-matter anything could be possible. If antimatter was around in the beginning then, why the big bang? Why would it just be the big disappearaance because the matter collided with anti matter? Where did the matter come from in the first place?

Considering a big majority of the U.S. population are Christians, why don't we have any Christian programming. (7th Heaven and TBN don't count)..i mean, shows with a moral message (kind of like Growing Pains used to have).

I don't want nothing to do with the devil and even if I could sell my soul to the devil for something valuable I wouldn't do it, i'm just curious if it's real or not, and if it is how would you do it?

1 Corinthians 6:9-11
"Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

AND SUCH WERE SOME OF YOU:..."

Seems it's been nothing but re-wrights. Yes...they have squashed us with the computer....but besides that? What's NEW?

My daughter was so thrilled to go to OZ fest years ago. Ya Ozzie from Black Sabbath...tripped to him way back myself. Still a star today. Metal isn't much more than hard rock was. So many of the NEW stars are just re-doing what was already done.

Where is their "Star Trek"? Now it's "reality TV"

They don't have a "Leave it to Beaver" or "Brady Bunch" or " I dream of Jeannie". No "Bonanza" or "Little House on the Prarie".

No new answer to disease or illness.

It's sad.

I have been going to a Christian club and a friend's youth group at his house. I am unsure about things and I am in a state of confusion. I would like to become a Christian, but I have doubts of it I should. I am not completely sure if I truly believe it. I also don't really know if I am doing this for the right reasons. My family is not religious, but both my parents grew up as Roman Catholics. I am worried they won't accept me or understand. I also don't know what to do to become a Christian. I basically know nothing and I don't even own a bible. As sad as that is, I want to learn and change to accept Jesus. I need some adivce and support.

I asked this question yesterday, but I want to see if I get any more responses tonight. I really would appreciate it if anyone could give some good solid answers.

Can someone please explain how you believe life was first created? There is the "primordial soup" theory where chemical reactions created the amino acids. How did these molecules evolve into life? What came first RNA or DNA? How did these compounds survive denaturation in a much hotter climate compared to now?

Isn't that what makes it so frustrating to argue?

"God" is just a label, perhaps the most abstract of all labels. The true meaning of "God" is "one who exists."

So for all of you who didn't understand my last question, you could just as well replace God with "He who exists" so the sentence reads, "He who exists does not exist."

So I guess if you disagree, you'll first have to take it up with Webster and argue the true definition of definition.

3 years ago when I was 13, I have been getting visions and dreams of the end times. It started off with a dream that my town was caught on fire, and the whole world too. I kept hearing people screaming and my grandmother ran in my room while I was looking out the window, she kept telling me to hurry and to get ready. I dont know what she meant by this, but as soon as she said that I didn't say anything, and seen her slowly fade away and she disapeared. Then I was on my bed, all was black, I couldnt speak clearly, but kept saying ''help...me.....lift....me...'' really slowly. And I lifted my hand up into the air trying to find someone to grab my hand. But nobody lifted me. Then I woke up. Later I had another dream, the entire world was shaking, and it was the biggest earthquake in existance, it was terrifying. Also, I had a dream of my father who died when I was 12, he was telling me to stop hanging out with certain people that were on drugs, etc... and I said okay, and
