If I am in traffic behind a car with a catholic bumper sticker or a rainbow flag I always pass them and get in front of them then slow down so they can see my REAL MEN LOVE JESUS" bumper sticker. Because a true child of God should never be behind an abomination right?

I've heard many, many rumors that December 21, 2012, is the day the world ends.

Personally, I don't believe a word of it. I think that the Mayans just stopped predicting. It seems that the solstice would be a perfect place to stop, and an easy place to start again.

Besides, I have heard that the Age of Aquarius isn't going to reach its peak until 2654. The Age of Aquarius has been described as characterized by technical progress, and finally the dissolve of religion due to science.

Now, I'm not saying we'll make it until 2654.

I'm just saying we'll almost certainly make it past 2012, unless there's a nuclear war or something.

So, why WILL the world end as we know it in 2012?

Please, which words are the correct translation of “snake” and "spider" in hebrew?

For "snake" I have found:
- "Akshub" (but maybe it means "adder";
- "Pethen" (but maybe it means "cobra");
- "Tziphoni" and "Shephiphon"

For "spider" I have found:
- "Akkabish"; "Akhshuv" and "Semamith"

Please, help me to clarify my doubts.
Thanks very much to everyone.

Our rainy weather cleared enough for the Shuttle Launch! Discovery STS-112 went off a few minutes ago. It was a beautiful to see, even from 50 miles away. The sky was very blue and the shuttle was clearly visible for several minutes.

Since all humans are imperfect, I would venture to say all have sinned once or twice in life. Were you repentant afterward? How did you know you were truly repentant? Did you just know you were or did someone else have to tell you that you were repentant?

I have seen many postings by people who do not believe in Hell, claiming that it is not fair...What can a person do in a short time , to desirve eternal destruction,or sepairation from God.

Is Heaven or Earthly Paradise fair? if you take the same topic and switch it around, People have no problem adopting the rewards God blesses us eternially with his Grace.
If you are going to throw out one doctrine as undesirved, don't you have to throw out the other as completely undesirved as well?

I speak to a very good friend online everyday. He always likes talking to me and leaves me offline messages if Im not around.

Recently - i find he is growing closer to me. Trusting me with his deeper issues and thoughts. He says im loyal.

I feel I have to tread carefully now because I dont want to hurt him in any way because he is revealing his vulnerable side.

Is this what men REALLY want? A woman they can trust and share their innermost feelings with?

Answers from Adults only please.

How come born again and fundamentalist Christian types don't like to have a good time? Don't try to say that you do, either. I went to a coffee house put on by some born again church folks. It was a bunch of people playing out of tune guitars, singing off-key about Jesus, and nobody there wanted to burn one in the parking lot. The pie wasn't even very good, though I hate to not be grateful over any pie, so I won't be. Still. I've had better at the Methodists.

These clocks have been around since the mid 1930s and are still being made today. Here is the history of them:

1 In the beginning when God createda the heavens and the earth, 2the earth was a formless void and darkness covered the face of the deep, while a wind from Godb swept over the face of the waters. 3Then God said, "Let there be light"; and there was light. 4And God saw that the light was good; and God separated the light from the darkness.

5God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, the first day.
6 And God said, "Let there be a dome in the midst of the waters, and let it separate the waters from the waters." 7So God made the dome and separated the waters that were under the dome from the waters that were above the dome. And it was so. 8God called the dome Sky. And there was evening and there was morning, the second day.

9 And God said, "Let the waters under the sky be gathered together into one place, and let the dry land appear." And it was so.

How do you feel about all this negative energy pointed at us? I mean why do people have to hate anything. If other religions were more Christian than us than why all the hate and fighting... Didn't Jesus say to love thy enemies... I am a convert and I love my church but I also care about others too. I don't hate one religion, no one. I don't speak anti anything. All I want to know is why all the hate??? I mean if people don't like the church than oh well, but to have all this angry and confusion is driving me to insanity. Why do people hate the religion so much? Maybe something evil is driving this hate...? What do you guys think?

This is for only LDS members. Please no Anti anything... (kinda defeats the purpose of the question...)
