Answer these.
Why does God allow innocent children to suffer from birth defects, illnesses, etc.?
Why doesn't God at least prevent damaging tornadoes, hurricanes, etc., from killing babies?
Why did He allow Hitler to rise up and why did He not stop the horrors of the Holocaust immediately!?
Why doesn't He heal those who have devoted their lives to Him when they ask for help?
Why does one have to have some serious malady like cancer to "feel that God is close"?
Why are we here? Why did He create fallible beings anyway?
If He wants us to believe in Him, why doesn't He make Himself a little more obvious?
Why are "answers-to-prayer" closer to just the "turn-of-natural-events" than some intervention by a God?
Why should those who follow God experience death? Why doesn't He just "take them" like He did with Enoch?
Why would God send anyone to a burning Hell if He "loves the world" as it says in John 3:16?

Some of them are just fat. Most appear to just be lazy. Am I being too judgemental?

I don't even like to use a shopping cart if a handbasket will do. (I'm 66 and pretty healthy.)

Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?

At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.

With sincere apologies to everyone who I promised I was having a few days off to - sorry - the anger at the injustice that is being tolerated on here by some is just TOO much for me.

I wish that I could be a passive 'let it go -he/she will soon move on' but what is happening here re the thumbs down/pulling of innocent questions IS WRONG.

IT TAKES ONE GOOD MAN TO DO NOTHING FOR EVIL TO TRIUMPH ..................

There is somebody on this site that is picking off those that they disagree with by the only means available to them - for they obviously do not have the wit or the intelligence to use the mighty weapon that is words - that my friends - is terrorism!
Diluted perhaps - but I KEEP chickens - I AM NOT ONE!

For anyone that is interested I shall be starting a BLOG shortly if you need to know how the girls are doing ........... and that aint pretty at the moment either!!!!!!!!!!!

And by the way ............. you folks - you're the best!

I quit Girl Scouts a year ago after having to defend my beliefs on animal products, etc. Most of the troop was coverting to "veganism" or "vegetarianism". I begain to notice the lack of animal products in the menus for campouts. Once, I chose to eat my eggs with bacon, rather than "facon bacon". The leader came up to me when I was standing up for eating bacon (meat altogether). I said that God made animals for the main purpose of consumption(as I have been raised to believe from the Bible and religious studies) The Girl Scout leader (a mom of a fellow girl scout who started eating vegetarian foods) then said "Well, God made poo, are we supposed to eat that?" To get to my point, religious and food beliefs aside...was that ok for her, a supposed leader in society, to put down a younger member in society to make way for her own personal beliefs. Personally, I was offended as I always thought those kind of people were to be unbiased. Please give me your opinions.

I do.

And for those of us who say we believe, do we really believe it, enough to let it change our lives and get radical for God?

I am asking this question most of all to myself.

Since at least the First Council of Nicaea in 325 AD (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Council_of_Nicaea) Christians have been attempting to standardize beliefs and impress these pigeon-holed concepts on other believers while at the same time assimilating pagan beliefs of native converts. The result has been a multitude of different versions of Christianity from Orthodox Christianity in Eastern Europe, to the Roman Catholic Church, to the Coptic Orthodox Church in Africa, to Evangelical Christianity in North America. When will Christians recognize that there is no standardization of religion and it is hypocritical to claim that one's beliefs are the "correct" beliefs for whatever reasons? Why don't more Christians practice the tolerance, prudence, and pacifism of Jesus Christ, whom they love so dear, or is it just that the christian voices that are heard are the most radical?

For my theatre/English class for an online class for college I had to read plays and literature from Ancient Greece and Rome and other periods. What I noticed was that beautiful and handsome was used interchangeably between the sexes. There was a part where a woman's features were handsome and beautiful for man. But these were compliments, therefore, it seems that both meant good looking and weren't specific in the type of good looks. So it made me wonder what caused these terms to be associated as we do in modern times. For example, we associate beautiful with soft delicate, pretty, elegant features, therefore, this can be used for men, but mostly it's associated with women, since these adjectives sound feminine. And handsome is associated with good looks with symmetry, but stunning and attractive in a bolder way, or sublime beauty I guess. Since men have more prominent features, this term associates best with men and masculinity.
