do you think in my lifetime (i am 16), i will live to see these two branches of christianity reunite after the schism in 1054? i think its very probabable. honestly the basic beliefs are the same, its just that orthodox christians dont honor papal authority, whihc started centuries ago when popes did idiot things. but now things are different and these people have never experienced papal jurisdition so maybe they will see its not like it once was. hopefully one day we will be one church like jesus wished

I think that there is proof that god exists because of holy artifacts such as the shroud of turin, the holy grail, the spear of destiny, the ark of the covenant, and so on. I have never heard of any archeological artifacts in hinduism or buddism that prove that vishnu or budda existed. are there such items?

ok so i need some help to figure out what i should do with my life. should i move. have i exhausted all of my resources here in wilmington,? i'm thinking maybe.
the weather is nice here. the people are more friendly than other places. but there are no jobs. but raleigh or charlotte are my only other alternatives. and i'm not sure if i could do either one. i have traffic and i hate working in a cubicle and i hate white collar criminal middle management mofos who want nothing but to work me to the bone for as little money as possible.
charleston could be cool but it's dude city. i don't know about that. that could suck and everything is really expensive there.
here's what i'm looking for.
1.a chill place with lots of people who are young and single.
2. a nice night life but nothing to crazy or rediculous.
3. beautiful scenery and lots of light. i hate the rain.
4. a place with a good job market where i can easily find something that suits my personality and can make enough money.

Eight-year-old Marie Bentham hangs herself in her bedroom with her skipping rope because she can no longer face the bullies at school. Marie is thought to be Britain's youngest bullycide. Very very sad case indeed, are you willing to say that this poor little girl will go to hell as a consequence to her actions? She killed herself which is definitely wrong in the eyes of Jesus, the bible says so... is this case an exception or not?

in exorcism, Catholic priests use Holy Water to drive away the evil spirits, and it just got me thinking why are Bible-fundies afraid of Holy water as well?

Why are some Catholics so bothered by others receiving the Eucharist in their hand?

In understand that a priest's hands are consecrated at ordination, but since it is Jesus Christ, who we are receiving that makes us holy, can't I hold my Savior in my hands?

Is my tongue holier than my hands and fingers?

Imagine this scenario: Two of your children are hanging by the tips of their fingers from a 20 story building. I am on the roof of that building. The children are both pleading for my help and screaming that they cannot hold on much longer. I grab the hand one of your children and pull him/her up to safety. Then, I stand there and do nothing. The child I pulled to safety realizes that I am not helping the other child and tries to help his/her sibling. However, because they are only a child, they are not strong enough. They lose grip and the other child falls to his/her death. Would you consider me a just person? Or would you just say that I work in mysterious ways?

Genissis 1:26-28


26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the

sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping animal that

creepeth upon the earth. 27 So God created man in his [own] image, in the image of God created he him; male and

female created he them. 28 And God blessed them, and God said to them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the

earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every

living animal that moveth upon the earth.

To me Christmas has gotten very commercial. I did celebrate the holiday growing up but now it's just a paid day off work. I'm just wondering do most people celebrate Xmas because it was taught and do they really understand the so called holiday traditions and what they really mean? What about the peganism associated with Xmas?

I guess what I'm asking is do you think we as people give them the respect they deserve,help them when they need it out in public places among other things. Think about your grandparents how do you think people treat them when they go out into society.
