Lets make all religions on the planet be nonviolent and have governments enforce the policy (without violence) espeialy those whose governments declare a religious state for their country. Then lets force all governments to be non violent and free to believe whatever they want as long as they don't harm other human beings because it is a part of their beliefs. Sound Good?

Did you have a side effect by using the drug? My last blood test showed that mine was 295! I've never had it that high before. I think, along with the eating out so much, it is also stress-related.

Goofing around, I made a quote from a movie which referred to deafness. I get along good with my woworkerrs but this one guys face got a tad angry looking for a second, then we laughed a second. It was totally insensitive, I know to joke about anything like that but it was more the joke about the movie than the deaf issue, but apparently he hasnt seen that movie to even know what I was talking about. Yeah the guy is almost totally deaf that I said this in font of, and I feel like total crap. Any advice?

The Bible revealed that the earth is round. Job 26:10, Prov 8:27, Isaiah 40:22, Amos 9:6. people of the fifteenth century who feared sailing because they thought they would fall over the edge of the flat earth. Yet the Bible revealed the truth in 1000 B.C. 2500 years before man discovered it for himself!
Well?

Y!A member The Reverend Soleil wrote in answer to another question:

"Statistically, about 44% of Americans are absolutely or "very" confident that Jesus will return and the world will end within the next 50 years -- not exactly conducive to building a sustainable system of economics or government, when almost half the population is planning on (or even looking FORWARD to) Armageddon..."

As is generally known by Americans, George W. Bush is a Christian. Any fool knows that Earth's supply of oil is not limitless and could be used up in a very relatively short amount of time. Realizing this, you would think that a President would make research and implementation of alternative energy sources a major priority, but this is not the case with Bush. He insists on maintaining the war in the Middle East and many believe that it is now for the sake of ensuring our oil supply.

All of this may seem to suggest that George W. Bush's ultimate intent may be to bring about Armageddon. Any thoughts?

Lets say when he gathers the kingdoms of the world to come against his chosen people Israel. How does Satan acomoplish this. How does he work through humanity like he does with the fruits of his spirit which is destruction? How does he influence and minipulate people into doing his will withought them even being aware? Is it by his powers and the spirit of sin that has enterd into mans soul at the fall of humanity. Can and does Satan work through groups of people like he works through evil dictators such as Hitler or Sadam.
christ has set man free from bondage by the power of his Holy Spirit. Are those who haven't recieived the spirit still in bondage performing the devils will? Or are all of us under this curse of lawlessness / sin just that as Christians we realize the fruit of the spirit and consequences of his influence in our lifes. Thus we confess with our mouths and acknowledge our sins and fight against this spirit which tries to bind us and place us back into bondage and sla

What is your religion?
How do you feel your religion fits into your geographical area? Do you feel of the norm in your area, or more of a minority?
How does your religion shape you as a person? Do you feel that it defines who you are?
Have you ever felt discriminated against because of your religion? Why?
How do you feel towards other religions or towards people of other religions?

I appreicate any answers. It's for a Diversity assignment for a class I have. Best answer will be the most thoughtful and helpful answer, but I'm looking forward to reading all answers. Thanks!

Your arguements and attacks against Jehovah's people are weak.
Before I became a Witness all your slander just made me curious to look into their beliefs.
If you claim to teach the truth why aren't you spending your time helping people who do not believe in God or his Son Jesus?

We're talking acceptible in court physical proof as evidence that the person, or people, making their claims could prove that divine intervention through a supreme deity somehow crafted or created existence, provides punishment and rewards and is the only means towards everlasting life.

Saying there is a Dead Sea and the Dead Sea was there during the time of Christ does not validate claims of divinity. We all agree there was a man named Jesus. There was physical proof of this. But provable physical evidence of divine linkage?

Saying there were countless witnesses who heard Mohamad speak only validates the existance of Mohamad as a human. We accept that there was a man named Mohamad who made claims two thousand years ago. Mohamad was very much real, but can anyone validate his claims?

Do we have actual acceptible in court proof to our core beliefs?

In one of the other questions about a young adult leaving your religion, one of you answered that he'd become "rebellious," although he was over 18.

Do you still expect your family to welcome you in their home with open arms, though you've left their faith?
