What is it about men that you can't get enough of?
What do you thank God for in reference to men?

I'd make a list, and lists from others hopefully might be similar to this: Kindness, love of your fellow man (meaning humanitarian), love your family, etc. etc. Does that person deserve to burn in Hell because his "faith" is limited exclusively to being a kind decent person?

How about this Scenario:
--A Japanese man who loves his parents, who's parents love him, who is the definition of altruistic behavior -- yet who's culture, with everyone he's ever known, is "blasphemous"?? Because the punishment for loving your Buddhist religion, your ancestor's traditions, your 1000 year old culture, and along with it, your knowledge of what's right and what's wrong is to roast alive for eternity?

I would condemn such things, and any such entity that is responsible for such eternal torture for the undeserving. Maybe the Japanese guy had the courage to smile while roasting on Satan's BBQ, because he knew he'd brought love and happiness to people's lives.

Ok, it was going into the rinse cycle. It filled up with water and then just quit. . . .nothing happening. Every once in a while it would make a clicking noise and then a little buzz and then nothing at all. No matter what setting I put it on it still wouldn't work. . . .nothing.

The hubby and I are going to take a look at it again this evening before we go and buy a new one. But, I don't evenk now what we should be looking at. . .and as great as my hubby is. . .he is not the Maytag man, lol. Help!

So for those of you against gay marriage, what if both partners include in their vows that they will cleanse themselves once a month by having heterosexual sex with a friend or prostitute. Will that make it moral?

I know it sounds crazy but my 2 year old has started seeing things in only one room of our house. My wife and I had a big Halloween party and bought some graphic decorations as it was an adult party and we wanted to have fun with it. After the party, we packed up the decorations and now he is adament in telling us there is something "scary" in there, and I have seen black streaks in the air. My wife has told me several times that she sees someone dressed in black out of the corner of her eye. She is so scared that she will not stay in the house alone which is completely unlike her. We have never had any problems until this past week. Please help.

My grandfather said it to me once, and the longer I live, the better I think that advice is. Because a church that spends its money providing recreational facilities for its parishoners (And, no I'm not talking about about a ping pong table in the Youth Lounge) is a church that isn't spending its money on helping the poor, or other purposes central to Christ's teachings.

Agree or disagree?

I am having to write a college paper and my instructor gave me persmisson to use the bible. I remember this as a kid but I can't remember where it is at in the bible. All I can remember about is something like this. It is the part about how people were being stoned to death. I believe there was something about GOD saying "an I for an I" in other words the people throwing the stones were just as fault as the people being stoned for their crime. Now I am sorry if I am wrong about this, that is why I want to find the verse. If anyone has any input they would like to add then it's very much appreicaited. If you understand the verse more in depth than what I remember. Thanks

Sometimes after school my brother goes to my cousins house. My mum is not really keen on these particular people and I feel she has reason too, but I stay polite with them. Well today my brother decided to go their house, so I decided to got too for some stupid reason . They were quite pleasant and they gave me food but the girls' conversation was quite inane (clothes, clothes clothes ahhhh!!!). I wanted to leave because I felt guilty my mum was alone at home waiting for me, whilst I was with these people she doesn't like too much. I made my excuses and was about to leave, but my brother (18) told me to stay because my dad could pick me up on the way home from work. I didn't want to do this because I just wanted to get away and I enjoy the walk by myself and I was feeling really guilty by now. But my brother made me give him my phone so he could ring my dad and arrange for him to pick me up in like 30-40 mins, when I could walk home in 15 mins. He was being really bossy. Im 16 btw

The (big brains) in here are so close minded. you can not reason with most of them.
All conversation ends if some one mentions the theory of creation.

"SCIENCE IS GOD!!!!" They shout, with their ears, eyes and mouths covered like the three monkeys.

But, be at peace my fellow knowers of Jesus. He died for them too and hasn't given up on them. In the end it is only the Holy Spirit who can convience them. You do know that don't you?
Keep praying for them!

Agnostics claim either that it is not possible to have absolute or certain knowledge of the existence or nonexistence of God or gods; or, alternatively, that while individual certainty may be possible, they personally have no knowledge.
So prove there is no god.
