Society & Culture - 4 October 2007

This site is starting to take on the nasty habits of the rest of YQ&A.
As seniors, of an age to know better, some of you are stooping to child tactics, just because you either don't care for a question, the person asking the question, or someone is telling you what to do-like causing someone to get a violation when they really don't deserve one.
Then some of you are sending nasty e-mails to folks. Time to rethink what you are doing folks & who you might be doing it for.
We love the jokes, stories, & other neat stuff that folks here share. If you don't care for them then just skip to the next Q etc.
Are we bending the rules a bit? Yes! But in a darn nice way!!!
Now before you reply to this, read it again! Then either ans. or not. It doesn't deserve a violation!

John 3:16-21:
16"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. 18Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son. 19This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. 20Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. 21But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what he has done has been done through God.

In the lower stages of culture all dreams were regarded as objectively real experiences; a god or spirit actually visited the dreamer, the events dreamed actually occurred.
Hence anyone subject to frequent dreaming was regarded as a special Medium of divine energy, and many sought to produce the state by artificial means such as fasting or drugs.
Later dreams came to be treated rather as divine warnings than an actual occurrences.

Aso the point emerges.
If being psychic is wrong (False Prophets)
then why wasn't the entire Human race wipped out for being Psychic?
Everyone dreams, if you don't dream you go nutty.
How would you answer this question, Huh?
As some of you Christians know I ask this in the utmost respect.

My relationship with my girlfriend is in serious trouble because of a recent incident. I won't go into details about the offending act, I don't like to give out details of my private life, suffice to say it was incredibly hurtful.

I know I should find a way to forgive her, but I can't bring myself to do it. Holding it against her seems so justified. If things keep going this way, I'm going to lose her. I really don't want that, but I also don't want to give the impression that what she did was okay.

In short, how do you forgive the unforgivable?

Do you believe in God ? I have been chatting with a buddhist monk who often talks about God and Gods love. I am very confused; he is Tibetan Buddhist. I thought that Buddhists dont believe in God/Gods

Thanks !!

Shariah law allows the wives of Muslim men to keep their faith of Judaism or Christianity.........

If Islam was out to CONVERT everyone by FORCE then Shariah law would not allow this type of marriage.

Obviously if Islam can co-exist with Christians and Jews in the HOME then outside the home would be even easier !

Muslims are to be examples to all the world……….. people who are impressed with the Islamic way of life must Voluntarily submit themselves to the Lord of Abraham.......if they were forced to submit then their TEST would be Null and Void.

Islam encourages Muslims to live in peaceful co-existance around non Muslims so others can see the Islamic way of life.

FORCED CONVERSIONS would make everyones test NULL and VOID , therefore by definition it is Impossible for Muslims to spread Islam by force.

Does the Quran really say you have to kill those who do not believe in Islam?

I know it's not true but could you please provide me with a link disproving this.

I hear Christians on this website saying this all the time to try to discredit Islam. I want to prove them wrong.
