Does it make you want to search deeper to affirm those truths?
Does it make you feel sorry for them?
Does it make you want to call fire down from heaven upon them?
Does it make you want to pray for your advesaries?

I have never seen anywhere in the Bible where it says not to say F---, I never say D-mn or the Lords name in vain but I say words like sht, fk, and crp a lot because I don't see anything wrong with it.

the Holidays? Apparently red and green lights stand for Christmas and exclude other holidays. Does anyone think this is ridiculous especially since Christmas is a national Holiday? Did you know 90% of Americans say they celebrate Christmas? Does that mean the USA is now 90% Christian or is it possible that non-Christians are also enjoying this Holiday?

Also, do you think the city should remove the traffic lights, since they have red and green?

Have a great night!

I have heard that people have to swear on their religious books. What do they use for Atheists, the US constitution? Or is there a special procedure?
I started to discuss this with friends and we got really curious about it.

I had an accident when in my mouth, throat and assophgus wa burned and I also experienced temporary memory loss.. A few day safter the accident and a few days before the beautiful near death experience, my ability to do mudras began.

Mudras as discribed in the dictionary" probably untimately from Akkadian musari,object bearing royal inscription."..In the Buddhism Dictionary,"A symbolic gesture of the hands or body communicating . specific meaning..From the earliest artistic represetations onwards.'"

I had never heard of mudras before my near death experience. I was in the hospital when a mysterious stranger said to me," Oh, you are doing the ancient sign language, Mudra!"

I have lived with terrible back pain for the past 13 years, recently adding to that pain when through a fall that ended in a facuture, I had surgery yesterday. I

HELP ME UNDERSTAND WHAT HAS HAPPENED AND WHY. I pray that I will find my path in which I can best serve GOD!

If Jesus is still alive what sect of Christianity does he subscribe to? I would have thought he was an Ebionite ( the poor ones) as this was the sect founded by his family. His brother James and the apostle Peter were heads of this church. Ebionites did not believe in the divinity of Jesus or his resurrection ( for good reasons as this group witnessed the death, burial of Jesus, and the internment of his bones in an ossary after his flesh had rotted away). They were persecuted out of existence by Jews and followers of the Pauline mystery cult varieties of Christianity at about 135CE during the turmoil of the Bar Kochba ( the Jewish Messiah recognized as such by the head Rabbi of the times ) revolt.

They read the bible but they twist the meaning to support their arguments against anything. They quote scripture out of context. They claim to be chirstians but act differently. And they like damning people to hell.

Ok, I work at an after-school program for an Asian American community and quite frank I'm not used to their customs and habits. These kids are literally petrified about not finishing their homework on time and say that they will get "beaten" if they don't. Another kid told me that if she doesn't get higher than a 95 on every test that she gets beat by her parents. I don't know if I should report this because to me it is abuse but I was told not to because the supervisor said that "that's the Asian way to handle school" What bull.

One kid even got in trouble because he did more work than what was told. He said that his mother made him do more work than what was assigned because she felt that he needed to learn more and the teacher was wondering why he went ahead and did everything wrong. The supervisor mentioned that the Asians are told to do more work than expected and never stop.

Does anyone have any experience with Asian tradition here? What should I do about this?

My boyfriend and I have been together for almost 5 years. After a year of being together we started having horrible arguments. After awhile things got better, then he confessed that during this time he cheated on me with someone I thought was just a friend of his. What angered me so much is that this person at one point needed a place to say and I suggested she stay with us. I didnt understand why he made such a big deal about her not staying with us until he confessed. I was angry but we had made progress and he confessed to me and things were finally okay between us so I chose to forgive him. Months later the problems arise again and we're battling to stay together he becomes close with another person and insists they are just friends but I can tell its more. Finally, in a drunken state he confesses his love for this other person and my heart is literally broken. The next day he apologizes again and again and for months things are fine...I keep forgiving him and I don't know why
