I follow the word of God to the best of my ability, I pray and read the bible morning and night, I have been baptised and changed my old ways to be a better Christian. I never miss a service and always attend bible study.

However, I became a Christian because I want to be a good mum. I have been trying to conceive for 10 months and with no joy as of yet turned to the Lord for his help.

The reason I ask am I bad Christian is because, the Church keeps mentioning Heaven and my plan of salvation. However, I really ain't to bothered whether I go to heaven or hell, I'd prefer Heaven but either way as long as have been a good mother and a good wife in this life I'm not that fussed.

Is this bad, I have started to feel really guilty that I put my family values above the Lord.

Do you think that a philosopher can help a country from any point of view? Would he manage to remake a country, or raise it to another level, a better level?

George Washington, William Wallace, Guy Fawkes, Che Guevera, Nat Turner and the like were all great revolutionary heroes in their own right but to the people they were fighting against they were labeled as heathens, maniacs, and brutal terrorists.

Where does the line come between justifiable revolution and terrorism?

or anything related to God when something happens? Like "what the hell?" or "Jeeeeees-us!" or "God damn it"? I'm not trying to get smart or anything, but if you do and you don't believe in it then why say it? Just curious... and please be nice... :)

I know it's a sin to curse or use God's or Jesus's name in vain, but it's just a question.

My boyfriend and I are invited to my boss's son's Bar Mitzvah. I am not sure what is a proper way to dress, or gift to give. I am not Jewish. I am very honored to go to this, however I am at a loss. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

How do you respond to the door-to-door evangelists?

I used to be rude or simply say "no thank you", but lately I've been going out to sit on my porch and listen. I generally only do this after I've explained that I'm an atheist and they express they still wanna talk which is what happened about 95% of the time.

I never tell them they're full of crap or anything. I generally answer questions about atheism though, especially when they have a misconception about it. Or if it's a sect I'm not familiar with I'll ask questions. This is how I learned that Mormons don't really believe in hell which I found beyond interesting.

So how about the rest of you? How many of us are polite and how many are rude?

What about the believers? When you guys get door-to-door evangelists do you sit around and visit or when they realize you're "saved" do they just go to the next house?

Salaam,
First of all let me tell you Happy Ramadan. I hope fasting is going well for you and your family. I have a question about Allah. Is it true when a lightning or thunderstorm hits that Allah is warning everybody that the Day of Jugdement is coming near?

I'm 20 years old and had a phone reading with Sylvia Browne July 2, 2007. I'm still waiting on some events to come true within the next few months, but I have two questions:


1) Have you had a phone reading with her (at what age) & what came true?

2) Have you asked her a question at all (i.e., Montel, HayHouse)

People talk about the problems in the middle east and blame it on religion. Nothing could be further from the truth. Politics is the real problem. It is a political problem, not religious and even if religion were the problem, it isn't Christianity that's to blame. It's Islam.

There would still be war without religion and we would still have suicide bombers. These problems would not go away. It's all about politics.

Agree?
