The LDS Church doesn't pay any of the leaders, no one is compensated for their time and efforts...do any other churches NOT pay their clergy/pastors/teachers?
Just curious...

to bite your tongue or say what's on your mind. I feel that anytime you bite your tongue, you're letting someone get away with using you.

You ask God for forgivess, because you did something but then you keep doing it and you keep asking for forgivess but you do it again. Then you promise not to do it again and don't do it anymore, will he forgive you?

Two Arabs boarded a shuttle out of Washington for New York. One sat in the window seat, the other in the middle seat. Just before take off a fat little Israeli guy got on and tookthe aisle seat next to the Arabs. He kicked off his shoes, wiggled his toes and was settling in when the Arab in the window seat said, "I think I'll go up and get a coke.""No problem," said the Israeli. "I'll get it for you."

While he was gone, the Arab picked up the Israeli's shoe and spat in it.When the Israeli returned with the coke, the other Arab said, "That looks good. I think I'll have one too." Again, the Israeli obligingly went to fetch it, and while he was gone the other Arab picked up the other shoe and spat in it.

The Israeli returned with the coke, and they all sat back and enjoyed the short flight to New York.As the plane was landing the Israeli slipped his feet into his shoes and knew immediately what had happened."How long must this go on?" he asked. "This enmity between our peoples..... this hatred... this animosity... this spitting in shoes and peeing in cokes?"

The one who disdains prayers will receive 15 punishments from Allah. 6 punishments in this lifetime, 3 while dying, 3 in the grave & 3 on the Day of Judgment:

3. Allah erases the features of good people from his face.
4. He will be detested by all creatures on earth.
5. Allah does not reward him for his good deeds. (No thawab)
6. He will not be included in the Dua's of good people.

2. He dies hungry.
3. He dies thirsty. Even if he drinks the water of all seas he will still be thirsty.
THE THREE PUNISHMENTS IN THE GRAVE :

3. Allah sets on him a snake called "the brave", "the bold" which hits him from morning until afternoon fo

I am asking this from a neutral point of view, as I do not belong do any religion. I have just been wondering about it recently about one of my friends who is a 'DEVOUT' Catholic.

He is very heavily in to pornography (in an addictive capacity, in my opinion) and also regulary gets drunk, tells lies, etc etc.

Yet he often preaches to me about his beliefs and has lied to people before about how he is against pornography because it is degrading even though I know he is heavily in to.
What is going on with this guy?
He is being a hypocrite ? or am I just reading too much in to things.

I am quite new to my job as a PA/receptionist (been there a month and a half) and part of my duties is to open the door to visitors but on Friday I went upstair to the sales department to ask about people's attendances (as that is another duty) and apparantly the door buzzed and while I was busy doing attendances a collegue who is much older than me and has a higher position walked past me and while repeatedly pressing her finger into my shoulder said something like "There are people downstairs wanting to come in" as she went to answer the door. I was unfortunately underslept as well as startled this, especially the physical contact so I did nt really respond to this but I have to do something about this, please advice. What would you do if you were in the same situation (bearing in mind I am new, a girl in a male-orientated company and the youngest. Leaving for me is not an option as I want to stay there, atleast for a year.

Christian dogma stigmatized and singled out Jews as the Killer of Christ therefore enabling and giving substance to the rationale for the Genocide of jews.

If there had been no Constantine and no Jesus (a misfit among the jews) there would have been no Holocaust
