The popular video game, "Halo Nights" is being used by Protestant churches to lure young people into attending services. Halo III is a popular video game, with sales reaching $300,000 and features bloody war, violent and brutal. Ministers rationalize this by saying they have to use any means necessary to lure young boys into attending services. The question is...if "Thou Shalt Not Kill" can be ignored, can other means at their disposal...Porn movies or Snuff films, for instance, be as effective? Should churches forget the instructions of Christ to lure young people into attending? How can churches teach morality and integrity if they stoop to such behavior? Has religion become synonymous with sin?

Most of the girls in my lower grade are snobs and racists. They treat especially the asians horribly, often in an indirect manner, regardless of whether or not the asians are older than them. They think they're the prettiest, coolest, and most popular - it is so obvious from the way they talk to you and treat you.
I'm not being racist about the westerners - I'm only paranoid of these specific people.

I'M ONLY WONDERING: What do you think of these snobby people?

If you're asking something in here it's because you don't know the answer (at least it's my case) why then you have to stand people saying: what planet are you come from or something really worse than that. Is it needed to be that rude, or they are only rude behind a computer screen?

Jesus said:
"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. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever 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." John 3:16-18
Jesus said, "what about the one whom the Father set apart as his very own and sent into the world? Why then do you accuse me of blasphemy because I said, ‘I am God‘s Son‘?" John 10:36
Likewise John the Baptist testified, "I have seen and I testify that this is the Son of God." Joh 1:34

What if Christ is really a fun guy, and loves to laugh, rather than TELL people how it is? What if Christ is misunderstood, and the majority of people don't understand Him? (geez, that's a given). What if He would rather play, than to war? Would you know Him then?
I would think that He gets blamed for A LOT of the "Devil's" deeds.
What say you?

With mug slinging towards Atheist & Agnostic minded people, honestly were you a bad person before you said your saving prayer and handed a bible. Since then what has truly changed in your daily life, have you had to work hard on areas of your life you doubted to remain religious. Has since becoming a Christian deepened your relationships with your family and friends. Did you abandon or dismiss friends who were in your life, who chosen to remain atheist.

being naked?
I really do...have thought about nude beaches, etc...but never went. I've skinny-dipped & walked around the house naked.
You do any of those, or similar things?

Yesterday, many folks joined in on a story line that went around the world. It made people laugh & come together as friends & even clan members. I have been getting e-mails from all over the orb to prove it & not one has been nasty-NOT ONE!!!
Everyone was having fun & laughing.
So what role did you play? Were you one of the ones who thumbed down replies or questions? Did you add to the laughter by doing that? Did you get your jollies off too?
Do you have something against laughter & folks having fun?
Have you joined a group that delights in doing that?
Did you post a nasty reply?
Our laughter went around the world, how far did your nastiness go?
