Everyone uses the Old testament theories as tool for anti gay rhetoric. Is it because people who lived back then were taught that only heterosexual men had rights?

Villagers furious with Missionaries:


Jubilant at seeing the relief trucks loaded with food, clothes and the much-needed medicines the villagers, many of who have not had a square meal in days, were shocked when the nuns asked them to CONVERT before distributing biscuits and water.

Some days it seems I am compelled to drink more than a fish.

I was wondering how quickly the drinking games leads to alcoholism?

Biblically or traditionally, is it still considered a sin to elope with your fiance, even if you have the consent of both families?

The universe exists without anything having caused it to exist.

The universe exists because a higher Being has caused it to exist.

I just answered a disturbing question from another member who says that her parents found out she was sexually active and ordered her a chastity belt. She did not mention her religion and
she implied that she did not know whether chastity belts are common or not. Until now, I did not know that chastity belts were still being made, except for the purposes of sadomasochism. Do you support the use of chastisty belts? Were chastity belts extremely common in the 19th century or were they merely used in "extreme" cases, such as at girls correctional schools? Is there a website that sells chastity belts specifically for young girls, and not for adult "play"? Finally, is anyone else as disturbed by her question as I am?

When rain comes down and covers the land which brings forth the fruit(and vegetables) of the ground and this food ends up on your plate who do you thank? Do you say "Thank you mere coincidence!" or "Thank you by chance!" or are you so full of pride that you really believe that it is yourself who brings goodness to your life?

And, what percentage is this offering of your take-home pay?

I am doing some "soul searching" and wondering if I need to give the church more than my weekly $10 offering (which is about 2% of my net income). I want to serve the Lord. Our pastor is not pressuring us in anyway.

Thank you fellow Christians.

...and if he does - why doesn't he love people with another sexuality than heterosexuality, like bisexuals or homosexuals?

...and if God loves all people unconditionally, why doesn't Gods followers love all people unconditionally?

There are thousands of men in mental institutions that believe they are God, prophets, or have spoken to God. What makes Jesus any different than any of these men? How can we be sure that none of these men are God, prophets, or have spoken to God??

Secular schools can never be tolerated because such schools have no religious instruction, and a general moral instruction without a religious foundation is built on air; consequently, all character training and religion must be derived from faith ...we need believing people.

Sounds familiar right? We basically hear this speech all the time on TV today.

I am amazed that we keep worrying about the "islamofascist" when we have the Talibabtists in the door already pushing their Christofascist agenda on our schoools.

Want to know who really said that?

the UK Doctors should have Surgeries open on a more flexiable timetable, instead of rigid office hours, so as more people can get to see them without having to take time out of work. If they worked on a shift rota so as to be open in the evenings people would not have to wait so long to get an appointment, then that in turn would maybe stop people going to the Hospital with things that should be dealt with at the Doctors Surgery.
Your views please.
