Back in my college days, my senior year we took a road trip to New Orleans. We were just catching all the coins from the floats at Marti Gras. We were around the French Quarter when a couple on the street were telling people about Jesus. I thought they were weird. They were mainly talking to my roommates. Then the wife asked me the accept Jesus. I told her I was a very nice person. But she said all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. I thought she was nice so I said something like Jesus forgive me. I told her she was doing a great job. When I got back to school, somebody sits right next to me in the cafeteria and tells me Jesus was the only Son of God. I was wondering about all this so that night I said a prayer like this. "God, is Christianity the only way?". As soon as I said that, my heart started stopping. When it did, I felt my soul and something like raw sin in it. I remember saying "forgive me" and it went away. I believed after that. Has anyone had a similar occu?

In afterlife, where do people think you go. I think you just rot in the ground because their is no such thing as a soul.

Why is it that when a female slaps/hits a male most people see it as okay and not a big deal, but when a male hits a female it's completely out of order? Is it just me or do you feel that it should be equally bad?

Maybe there was no electricity at home for a day, or perhaps you stayed somewhere on holiday where there weren't so many gadgets as you have at home.
What was good/bad about the experience?

My brother is always telling the rest of the family that there might be a God, there might not, and he will find out when he dies.

This is NOT the right decision he is making! How do I get him to build a relationship to God when I am only 13?

How do you know the bible we have now is what was written 2000 years ago? And if it was, how do you know it wasn't written (or maybe influenced) by bad people who just wanned to tell lies?

I asked this before, and someone told me "the bible is the word of god, cause god would not lie". I am seriously hoping for no circular logic this time, and hope you understand what I ask

This is not a way that I try to prove you wrong so please don't take offense, I just want to understand you

What a jerk. He said my answer was best but he picked the other girl because she asked him to choose her. I'm feeling a little guilty because I'm a Christian. But I did tell the truth.

Mine isn't a very happy one. We lived on a major highway in our town, we were sitting around the table befoe our meal when we heard the screeching tires, screams and busting glass, we (3 generations of our family) went running out side and so did the neighbor's there were 6 people in one car all family who all died. One of the neighbors who came running to the accident site was the only remaining child a boy of around 8-10 years of age. He had stayed home with his Aunt because their was no more room in the car( they sat 6 or more back then) They had gone to pick up Grandma & Grandpa. This poor child had lost his whole family! He was of course taken in by the Aunt that he was with when they all died.
Over the years there had been many accidents right there but none as tragic as that Thanksgiving 1965. My family could not eat our meal but we all went back into our house and knelt down on our knees and prayed for that family and that boy. We would check with him from time to time.

I have had it with my church. I feel like I should be eating popcorn and sitting in a theater chair. I go to a Baptist church, and our music minister even said something about it being entertainment. What happened to worship? Don't get me wrong, I love comtemporary Christian music, but ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!! My kids don't even know many traditional hymns. In children's church, the music is so loud I know it's going to damage their hearing - ask me how I know. HUH? (too much loud music over the years for me, too). We are going to try a new church this morning that has a traditional morning and a little more contemporary in the evening.
I won't even start on the watered-down preaching.

Any others agree with me? Are ya sick of entertainment/

Why does Easter sunday keep changing?

Why does Chrsits day of ressurection depend upon the new moon?

In fact not just any new moon, but why is it always held on the first sunday, after the first full moon after spring solstice

if this really a jig to make us celebrate spring solstice?
but after a union of sun-day and the moon?

Why is Christs ressurection named after a persian god ishtar

Ishtar was the goddess of fertility

Whose fertility was represented with Rabbits

and whose reincarnation was represented by eggs

so why do we eat bunnies and chocolate eggs at easter, or maybe i have naswered my own question?

Why do we congregate around av giant egyptian monolith at Easter in St peters Basilica

The same monoliths are used by the egyptians to worship isis and horus, who are false gods

infact the same monolith was taken by poper pius when he was in egytp and brouigh t back to rome in 6AD.

Why does the pope speak in 153 languages at easter?

The appendix is a 'vestigial organ' - a left over bit that no longer serves its original purpose, that evolution is in the process of removing. When it was larger and fully developed (when we were something between monkeys and humans) it allowed us to digest cellulose (in grass and leaves).

But now it serves no purpose (besides getting inflamed and rupturing, which incidentally would have killed you before modern medicine came along).

The appendix has been found to contain infection fighting 'lymphoid cells' which seems to be the organs only function. Though that is a completely different a much more minor function than as we see it in all other animals with an appendix.

The human appendix is not used for the function in which it was developed. Which, by definition, makes it vestigial.
