I guess it was the Rugby. I would have given anything to be back home on Saturday night. Don't you think that the land in which you were born and raised is sort of in your blood and in your heart? No matter where you live. There is a saying that if you were born and raised in Africa, the rythem of that land never leaves you. I can identify with that so much. I love African music. I just love the people. How do you all feel about your land of birth? Politics aside. Please no answers on politics.

All three, in my mind, are mythologies, neither of them are factual or proven, so what is the difference? Is it just because people still follow Christianity and Islam, but not characters like Odin and Thor?

why does God give us the change to choose wether we want to kill someone or not, would a father of his children (mankind) allow the risk that someone can kill an other person? why did God gave us free will knowing that we will abuse that gift?

I am tired of this paradox going round and round.If god can be jealous why can't we?
"For thou shalt worship no other god: for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God." (Exodus 34:14)
Oh and I thought his name was Jehova or Yaweh or Brian.

I wash mine every day and blow dry it myself. Only go the hairdresser when I need it cut. Or I leave it, but then it has a corkscrew curl.

When you are born again, you are made righteous ~ you were justified ~ you were sanctified!
You can read in Rom 8:1, we see that "there is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit".
Did you know that you were justified? We have all sinned and come short of the glory of God (Rom 3:23), but thankfully we have recieved the righteousness of Jesus when we were born again (Rom 5:17) and justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus (Rom 3:24). We have been made the righteousness of God (2 Cor 5:21). You have been sanctified throught the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all (Heb 10:10). Read HEB 10~God doesn't wish for us to feel guilt and less than worthy due to sin.
God sees us as righteous even tho we repent of our sins.

I know many follow a more 'sin conscious' doctrine, but do you consider these scriptures? Do you feel the weight of sin? No judgements please :D

My real name is Pamela and in the workplace someone I usually get along with has started calling me Pammy which might be ok if I'm with family but I thinik it's patronising at work. I have no intention of falling out with this person especially because I am new so I am still trying to fit in the team. What would be the best way to tell this guy that I don't like being called Pammy without falling out with him? Or even showing that it offends me too much or it might backfire if he decides to do it more.

Did you understand what he was one about? I did not have a clue. We had to four years of his plays. The Tempest, Hamlet,
Macbeth and Love's Labour Lost.. It was only when I was older and saw the movies I actually understood what the man was saying.

I hate The God. Because lot of partiality showing by the god now. Example A and B. If A and B do some bad thing. A get severe punishment. But B escape from that punishment and leading happiest life and enjoying this world like anything. Another thing, A and B do some good thing. A will suffer a lot in this world. Infact A suffered a lot ( it is not explain in words) that type of suffering by doing good things to the human beings. But B get all blessings from the god and enjoy the life.Infact enjoyment is in the peak.
Most of the people I witnessed not going to temple, church or Mosque. But they are very happy, No problems, their children reading very well and lots of money in their hands. But others going to temple, church and mosque regularly but suffering a lot. This is called worst politics by the god or in other words partiality by the god. I read Bagawat gita, Bible and koran. But God is acting against to that words in those books now. Why eminent people can answer my question.

A woman holding a sign outside where Bush was supposed to be reading "Someone give him a ******* so we can impeach him!"

Is this what people in their hatred have been reduced to? Cheering for immorality and hoping and praying for the downfall of our president?

I just cant identify with that type of attitude because I want America to have the best moral representation possible. I may not have liked Clinton but I didnt hope he would shame the white house getting himself into trouble. I would rather he have set a moral example dont we all?

are they afraid to question the Bible for fear that their "faiths"/beliefs might be shaken?

if so, doesn't that show a weak "faith"/belief?

just wondering.

How many of you ae fed up with this issue on peoples weight. In ancient times to have a good covering was seen to be very sexy, but now due to the fashion industry and newspapers it is better to look undernourished and ill. I am a large lady chiefly due to a thyroid problem, but I walk every day usually up mountains. I do sport and am fitter now than I was when I was slimmer. I dont over indulge with fast foods and I dont sit watching TV all day. So give us a break and worry more about all the other things going on in this country, child cruelty, the NHS, the fact that most people cannot afford to get their teeth done because of dental charges being so high. Violence in the home, etc.
