Christians have their crosses, Wiccans have their )O( and every other religion has a symbol. Do you know of a place that sells jewelry that has a symbol that is a unitarian type? That represents ALL religions? If so can you provide the link? Thanks!

I cross dress, and I know women dress as they want, when they wear trousers they are not trying to be like men. But it is cool, especially if you work hard on your look. Then you can leave it and go back to being a boring guy. That said there are cool things about being male, just not enough!! Any one agree?

I did when I was little, my mom said she caught me stuffing pillows in my shirt to look pregnant when I was 3. I get a lot of back talk from people who are working moms, they made me feel lazy or like I was doing a disservice to the community and after a while I believed them.

I went to work and by the time the paycheck came and after paying the babysitter I only had like $20 left and my house was filthy….babysitter’s won’t clean your house.

You see there was a man Namath who had a precious vineyard, but King Ahab wanted it for himself. When Namath refused, his wife Jezebel came and rebuked him for acting like a wimp and ordered Namath killed. She then told her husband that the rightful owner was dead and that the field was his for the taking. Only God could bring her down, and he did. Her own household threw her from the window of a palace, and the dogs ate everything but her hands.

Now there was a story about a man name Vince Foster who had some property called Whitewaters. This property was very nice, but a certain man called King Bill wanted it. Of course, things did not go as plan, so he discussed it with his wife, Hillary. Hillary did not waste any time in discussing what must be done, and Vince Foster was murdered. Much like Namath, Vince's blood cried to heaven, and God heard. Hillary own household betrays her and she is thrown forcefully down. Her shame was beyond repair, never to be heard of again.

Put aside actual religious beliefs, and think of the person that you are married to, or if you're not married, the person you're dating; have a crush on, etc. Would you want to spend ETERNITY with them? Why or why not?

Christians and Atheists feel free to chime in... I'm really curious about this...

MOST things always have some leeway in probability...

but has anyone calculated the possibility of his existence???

I have noticed that when I answer a question, and give the SAME answer as other "Christians", they get thumbs UP and I get thumbs DOWN - for the SAME ANSWER. I am realizing more and more that it is not the atheists who are thumbs-downing me or reporting me, it is these so-called Christians who always talk about the love of Christ.

All I see from them is bigotry, whether its "CJ" saying that me, the pope and Mother Teresa will rot in hell, or whether its the rude email I get from these loving Bible Christians.

Let me tell you what the Catechism Of The Catholic Church teaches about you:

CCC 838 - "The Church knows that she is joined in many ways to the baptized who are honored by the name of Christian, but do not profess the Catholic faith in its entirety..."

I am a sophomore in college and I need journal entry topics to write about for my love and friendship philosophy class. Topics that can be related to love (like brotherly clove, compassion, respect etc) and friendship. Topics can be questions, opinions, experinces or stories that have a moral and can be discussed and analyzed!


Examples of topics!! I've written 6 entries so far in the class:

1.To love others- you must first love yourself
2.Popularity: few friends- who truly know you or many friends who truly don't.
3.The difference between Lonely and Alone (My professor loved this entry)
4.Time to tear down the wall: “Sometimes you put walls up not to keep people out, but to see who cares enough to break them down” I argued that, “People are lonely because they build walls instead of brides” because walls divide whereas brides connect. (professor also loved this entry)
5.Animal Love- Affection streched beyond human-beens
6.To give up on love (bitterness)

Maybe it already happened--sometime several years ago. Maybe God only decided to gather up a very, very few souls--people nobody would even notice, homeless people and shut-ins. Meanwhile, everybody else, including the most faithful Born-Againers was left behind to face the end times. If you think about it--we clearly are living in the end-times, and how do you know for sure the rapture didn't already happen. Maybe God just needed all of you down here to be his Spiritual Warriors. Meanwhile he gathered up the poor, forsaken homeless. How do you know the rapture didn't already happen?

Because the words sounds awkward for speaker of the language?

Language of my country has a word which starts with fn- sound, so because of the having, I am curious about the non-having.

Example of the word: fnan, fnab, fnap, fneet, fnest, fnick...etc.

Thank you!

I just want to know why people complain and whine about working a desk job? I dont see what is so hard or difficult about working in a nice AC/ Heated enviroment. On top of that there is no hard labor or getting dirty, but still they cry. Why?
I would trade my job for a cubicle anytime.

Today before Church service a few of us men were outside greating people as they entered the building and we were talking. A man that I was talking to works in the same business I work and he was asking why the people in my office had not donated to the charity drive. I said I don't know why. He asked if I donated and I laughed, thought for a few minutes and almost said no but I said yes I did. Then he said "well I didn't see your name on the contributors list". I said "by the way I gave to the Baptist Childrens home if you need to know". He didn't respond to that but he did say that he was giving $2 a month to his charity and I guess he is one of the leaders of the Charity drive. I felt that asking these particular questions in front of others at church was totally out of line. Do you think this man is a Christian?

Listen if you don't want to judge then DON'T ANSWER. A yes or no answer would be appreciated. This is just a gee wiz question. Thank you.

These are mine:

Proverbs 13:11

Dishonest money dwindles away,
but he who gathers money little by little makes it grow.

Philippians 4:6

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.

Matthew 6:25

Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes?

Matthew 7:24

Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock.

James 1:22

Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.

Isaiah 44:22

I have swept away your offenses like a cloud,
your sins like the morning mist.
Return to me,
for I have redeemed you.
