These seem like they would be a waste of money to me. I mean do people really think that an atheist will be driving along, see the billboard that says "Jesus Loves You", and then would automatically be converted?
I think it cheapens the church and the religion when it advertises Jesus.
I am agnostic, so it is just a thought.
What are your thoughts?

preaching against gay marriage and having homosexual sex?
preaching against drugs and doing hard drugs?
preaching to ask for donations and using the money for personal use?
preaching against adultery and having a girl on the side?
... the list goes on and on

Bed sheets

An extremely modest man was in the hospital for a series of tests, the last of which had left his bodily systems extremely upset.

Upon making several false alarm trips to the bathroom, he decided the latest episode was another and stayed put. He suddenly filled his bed with diarrhea and was embarrassed beyond his ability to remain rational.

In a complete loss of composure he jumped out of bed, gathered up the bed sheets, and threw them out the hospital window.

A drunk was walking by the hospital when the sheets landed on him. He started yelling, cursing, and swinging his arms violently trying to get the unknown things off, and ended up with the soiled sheets in a tangled pile at his feet.

As the drunk stood there, unsteady on his feet, staring down at the sheets, a hospital security guard, (barely containing his (laughter), and who had watched the whole incident, walked up and asked, "What the heck is going on here?"

The drunk, still staring down replied: "I think I just beat the s*** out of a ghost."

Happy Halloween

Why do Chrisitans for the most part tend to be completely closed minded when it comes to eastern insight. Thomas Merton one of the most brilliant Christian minds of the 20th century found Zen and Taoist thought very useful. So what is the problem with looking at other world views?

Someone asked "What do you think fundamentalist Christians believe?"

and an Atheist replied "Fundies believe in ignorance, hate, and bigotry. I think they are the scum of the earth."


And people say Christians are hypocritical? What kind of example does this set for me? Does this atheist really "freely" think, or just conform with what some other atheists believe? Does anyone else this the answer is out of line?

I've read a few who had posted their reasons: 1) Child Sexual abuse. I am not doubting that this happened and it is very unfortunate yet, this have happened to many other religions out there. 2) Trinity: there are so many scriptures proving that Jesus is the Son of God. He Glorified His Father in heaven many times while on Earth. How can they be equal? 3) The issue on Blood. In the very beginning, God had already told Adam that he must not eat blood and this was given to Moses as well. The Apostle Paul also said in his ministry that we must abstain from blood. Transfusing blood directly to your vains (it's actually worse) is the same as eating blood! Some have also said the prophecies made have failed. Are we sure about that? Or we heard only what we wanted to hear and believed what we wanted to believe and when it did not come as expected we blamed the Watchtower society?

I'm asking because i honestly want to know. I'm not starting a debate and I am not a Witness.

Have you had this heppen to you ?

Or rather this isn't my original question..

My question is that I've heard this happens when someone is thinking about you or speaking about you.. Is this what you heard too ?? Have you observed whether it's true or not ?? And finally.. WHY is it the EAR that becomes HOT when someone is THINKING about you ?? All of them just don't make any sense when combined !!

My wild guess is.... there is something in the brain, which is connected to a part of something that is connected with the ear. This 'thing' in the brain is sensitive to special waves.. say..'telepathy waves' and when these waves start to arrive, the 'thing' in the brain starts to react after a passive state. this then affects the 'things' near to that 'brain thing' the main 'other thing' happens to be the ear .........

if you have other wild guesses... just write them down.. or if you have a fancy scientific explanation PLEASE, write it down ...!!!

the lord of deception and lies (satan) and believe he is real and in this world, then I'd like one logical answer. Wouldn't the greatest deception of them all be one in which he gets millions of people to follow a book he had written. If he is the master of lies, then to degrade himself in the book would make people want to believe in it would it? If you believe in Satan and give him the power I hear ascribed to him, then nothing--even the bible-in this world can not be counted out as a master deception on his part. Either that or he isn't real.
