I mean, if I believe in God and Jesus, is it wrong for me to attend Catholic services sometimes and protestant services another?, because when i'm at church I only care about god, and not the details that separate all the different types of christianity. But i dont know if thats ok or not.

Just like Jehovah did to Mary.

He didn't ask her, He only told her. Did he ask Joseph?

Was it that God simply knew MARY's heart already and knew that she would be cool with it?

Before her, of course, there were many virgin births in ancient history, where goddesses and maidens had miracle births to God-Men and super-babies...

Semiramis, Isis, and others...

So I guess it's no surprise that we have just another virgin birth story.

If not is he really that forgiving?

For example, if my friend does something that hurts me, I don't require my friend to apologize within a set period of time. If he/she comes to me a year later and apologizes, then we can usually get past the initial transgression.

God, however, seems to require us to repent for sins we didn't commit (original sin) in a very short (compared to eternity) period of time. Is this really fair? What if some people take longer to learn than others?

In the dim and distant past
When life's tempo wasn't so fast,
Grandma used to rock and knit,
Crochet, tat and baby sit.

When the kids were in a jam,
They could always call on Gram.
But today she's in the gym
Exercising to keep slim.

She's checking the web or surfing the net,
Sending some e-mail or placing a bet.
Nothing seems to stop or block her,
Now that Grandma's off her rocker.

Today is my day for funnees! lol

We know that the Devil can at least teach how to play the guitar, according to Robert Johnson, and he plays one hell of an electric fiddle, as shown in "The Devil Went Down To Georgia". What instrument or instruments can Jesus play? Please show your evidence, scriptural or otherwise.

The Bible says that you are going to burn in the lake of fire and that you'll be tormented forever and then probably annihilated!

And worse, None of us Christians will even remember you because God says He'll take away our every sadness and all our tears!!!

My sweet Jesus won't even hear your tormented cries for help because he will throw you into the sea of forgetfulness! You will be WHOLLY and COMPLETELY FORSAKEN!!!

The cut off limit is when you die - if you don't accept Jesus as your Lord and personal Savior before that time, you are DOOMED!

Hey, I'm just sounding the alarm - I'm saved and if you're not, get ready for Hell, Hell, Helllllllll!

This is my job, to tell you that SATAN has you in his grip!

Because you don't believe people should have abortion because you think that this is killing an innocent life? Or because you say that fornications (all types) & adulteries is a sin? And sins separate us from God.

Hey guys, For a while this is what i wanted, but for other reasons, i really don't want to be numb... This probably sounds dumb, but i'm going numb to the world around me, nothing hurts, no one can tug at my emotions, i'm not depressed at all. The thing is though, now that i don't feel anything towards anyone really, i can say mean stuff all the time and not feel bad, which some people may like for themselves, but i don't like it. Anyone have anything to say?

little more about myself. i'm a philosophy major, i used to be very devout in my church. i know i'm lost and destine for hell. I don't want to be that way though, but, being numb, i have and feel no conviction.

Help

I believe in auras, or something along those lines. I know one can see other's auras, but can he see his own? Can he feel it? Can auras hurt? Can anyone who has experienced any of these feelings, or something related to that (having to do with energy and the power human mind/soul) tell me a little about them?

Thanks. Any input from personal experience will do.

Why do you believe in evolution even though a cell has not even been reproduced?

Science has made HUGE advances, but are still not capable of creating a cell out of inorganic matter. NON-creationists only please. I'm not forcing my beliefs on you, I only want to know why you believe it.

No disrespect against the normal Muslims out there, but the whole concept of honour killings makes me feel really angry. How is it honourable to murder your offspring? Surely the job of being a parent is the hardest in the world? but that is no excuse for being so weak that you can't even follow your natural human instincts.

My strictly Muslim female friend recently fell in love with a British man. Her parents told her that she couldn't see him anymore but she was so unhappy, and they loved her so much that they had a family meeting and the end result was that he had to convert to Islam, he had to marry her, and he had to be circumcised. He did all of these things and now they have a 9 month old baby together and are a happy family.

Thank God that some Muslim families can balance their faith with the ways of the modern world without resorting to murdering their children!

See! It can be done! What are your opinons on this?
