Have you ever prayed for something and the answer was not what you thought it would be?

I will read and consider all responses, but quoting the bible is 1) baloney because I don't believe in the bible, and 2) it is way too information to read and more than required to respond to the question. Especially when it is multiple pages long.

So for convenience more than anything, so that I can read the other posts that aren't rants, I thumb down the long preachy answers and move on.

Is it just me???

I'm 17 and am not really bothered about the level of swearing someone uses in my presence, it doesn't bother me at all. Now, I've met quite a lot of people (mainly 40+) who genuinely find too much swearing offensive. Not to say they never swear, everyone does occasionally, but they seem to find someone using a swear word between every other word offensive.

So, is swearing something you sensitize to with age?

I think I am going to leave their questions alone and stick to my own, meaning Christians. Do you think this is wrong for me to feel this way. I would appreciate your opinion. I'm kind of scared of people who don't believe in God.

According to Christian dogma. So long as there is hell,there can be no all true Heaven-if some where in creation souls suffer for all eternity,I want no part in a place called Heaven,I believe true heaven can only exist when there is absolutley no suffering,the idea of hell and heaven existing,say on separate planes-is like sweeping some under the rug-who could enjoy heaven knowing some place people are burning forever-it's ******* cruel,is that the nature of an almighty creator,not one I want to be associated with .

I have nothing against Catholic people. BUT, I have grown to hate with a perfect hatred, the leaders of the Ctholics and their idols and espically the evil spirit who poses as Marry and the Pope, who must know he is nobody.
and now, the news of "SACRED TRADITION" teachings of Christ.

Other faiths with idols bother me a little, but this one touts it's self as being
"The real Church of Christ and there is no other".

You are driping with the blood of the saviour! You are the evil decendents of the relegious leaders of his time, which he refered to as serpants!
They crucified him because they feared him.
You are the ones who walk a thousand miles to get a convert but really lead them to hell!
You are definently a brewed of vipers, sitting there in Rome wearing extravagant robes that Jesus would have spit on, eating the flesh of those who support you with their only pennies!
If I had any spiritual guts I'd walk in and tear down you hidious idols!

Know God brothers!

They are not God, after all, but can they help you if you don't tell them everything?

I am wondering if there is a list of charitable organizations who list the percentage of funds that they keep and distribute? Is there a website that would show me this? Or who could I contact to get this information. Thank you very much.

We believe the earth is 6000-10000 years old.

We believe there was a Global Flood 4500 years ago and Noah’s Ark saved two animals of every kind.

We believe we were created and that we didn’t evolve.

We believe radiometric dating is completely fallacious because the dating methods that date the earth are off by a factor of nearly a MILLION. (4.5 billion/6000)

We believe that vestigial organs, genetic diseases and other suboptimal designs in the human body is due to Original Sin.

We believe that the geologic stratums were ALL formed in the Great Flood. And that the “less evolved” life forms are at the bottom because they ran slower or they didn’t float as well as the more “evolved” life forms we see today.

We believe that God displaced all the light from the stars to earth so Adam could see the starlight and that this goes against all laws of physics and astronomical research saying that that some stars are much further away than 10,000 light-years.

Do you see it like Jehovah's Witnesses teaches as the condition of the dead?

Or do you think Salomon was stating the way things appear "under the sun," that is, from human alone ( Eccl. 1:2, 18 )....The bleak "death ends it all " picture in Ecclesiastes is present as the way things appear, not in a way things actually are.?
