Or maybe you like both.....to give and to receive.....I like both, but will admit I hate to receive something I do not need or want....I will save it and give it to someone else as a gift.....Bad--I know, but I am being honest....

they reject anything that the Bible never mentioned, so what's the point in trying to educate them with science?

What if when you die what ever you expect isn't so. Example if you are Atheisit and there is a heaven and God. Or you're Catholic and you find it's Allah. These are just examples. I myself believe in God. Just not sure which one is real, and I don't really think I ever can untill judgement day. Just gonna live a good life and have faith:)

I heard someone say that it is a sin to get a tattoo and its in the Bible and that one shouldn't do it. Is this correct? If so please state where in the Bible. Maybe I am just misinformed, I don't know.

I got this shirt on a street market in Osaka whilst on vacation. Please someone help me translate what it means! The guy who sold it tried to explain it was a joke, like a play on words, but I need more than that.

Bible-fundies encourage personal interpretation of the Bible which resulted to many sects with different beliefs and interpretations, which also resulted to many confusions. they can't even agree among themselves about what interpretation is right.

so what happened to the "The Church should be ONE" that the Bible said?

I have been a Christian all of my life, but recently I have been wondering about the Bible. Now I am not sure if I believe in God or not. The first question:

1. If Adam and Eve were the first people and they had children, the children would have had to have sex with each other. And isn't incest a sin?

2. Why would such a "loving" god kill many people?
Don't just say to teach them a lesson, there are better, more logical answers.

3. What does praying ever do? I never see my prayers put into action by God (These are not selfish prayers either) And how can reading the Bible help me with my problems? Reading something that someone said hundreds of years ago with their knowledge can't possibly help me this year.

4. If God is so loving, then why does my dad have prostate cancer? I don't understand this at all. Free will has nothing to do with this. He had no symptoms beforehand.

Please help me understand these questions so I can get a better insight to life?

Or am I just old school at ripe old age of 56?
My old man had me shaking hands when I was six.
He was real big on that.
Nothing worse than squishy weak handshake.
Like grabbing a large oyster.

Who can take communion? Should only the serious church members, or anyone who wants to? Some in my church come once in a while and take communion, is that right? How about guests? In my opinion, communion is a holy thing, and only the church members should take it. I want to know your opinion. Please let me know. Thank you.

if God really showed you that Islam even though so strict is the real religion,will you convert after knowing all your buddies will not convert because they like the freedom of all other religion has to offer,free sex,incest,alcohol,anything they fancy and pretend that their sins will be forgiven by the priest in the churches and everything will be all right.

If we emerged from a pool of primordial ooze after being struck by lightening and created by mere chance. What chance is it that we are on this Earth for a purpose. We live, we die, we become extinct. For no purpose unless we evolve into a higher life form which seems unlikely. It seems we have stretched eveloution to our limit. It is more likely the cockroach will take over from here. How many say we can take it one more notch and how many are for the cockroach?

Perhaps somewhere along the line God divided himself into and Satan came from God. Maybe God created an adversay from himself? What do you think?

I know that other people have asked this, but I want to hear some things you all do to keep your cats off and away from your Christmas tree! This is the first year we'll have cats and a tree so I'm hoping that everything will go well.. We're going to use ribbon to tie the ornaments to trees so they're a little less likely to fall, but other than that, we don't know waht to do! Thanks for the ideas!
