Society & Culture - 9 November 2007

My boyfriend is in college and taking a religion class and in it he learned that in the Catholic religion you have to get married or you go to Hell. I am Catholic and have never heard of this but is it true? I pay attention all the time in church and in my Sunday school classes and I am thinking that maybe they just didnt tell us this. Does anyone know if this is true or not? I would think that it is since it was in his religion class but I was just wondering.

I think the Catholic Jesus has more Super Hero qualities and the Protestant Jesus just looks angry. The Mormon Jesus would make a good business man and I don't want to get my account suspended by ragging on the Jehovah's Witness Jesus.

I attend mass on Sundays, just want to know why others do. How deep is your Catholic faith....why is it so deep?

ok, so i just got this new CD of this mexican group and they pronounce all there B's like V's! (the english sound of B and V i mean) I was always told to pronounce B and V the same, as a B sound, like "voy" = "boy" (phonetically i mean) and now they are doing the opposite. Is this common in Mexico? or a new trend or something! Anyone know anything? Thanks!

Out of 49 responses here is how the answers added up:
--46% (22)said they believed Jesus Christ is the only way to obtain
salvation and justification with God
--14% (7) said they believed Jesus Christ was A WAY but not
the only way and other religions could be correct also
-- 14% (7) said they didn't care about either Jesus Christ or
religion
-- 26% (13) picked "none of the above" and just simply made
rude and obnoxious statements.

if evolution is real why arent people giving birth to monkeys?

Isnt that like asking why arent alligators giving birth to dinosaurs?

The fact that u are even asking that shows how ignorant you are to other peoples beliefs. The fact that u would even ask that shows u really dont understand what evolution is.

So why dont u try to fully understand someone’s beliefs before u start to ridicule them for it...

So please dont ask that question again until u have opened a science book and can ask an intelligent question.

Today I read that there is a language with seven tones (HELL for non natives!!!), but it didn't say what language is that.

And... is seven the limit? Is there a language with even more tones?

Hello,
I want opinions here. I want an honest answer on the credibility of the religion Jehovahs Witness. Do you guys think that Jehovah Witness religion is legit or not. Reason I am asking is because my girlfriend follows that religion, she wants me to follow it. I've heard some negative things about them. I was raised a catholic, I do not follow it at all times (meaning I do not go to church every Sunday). Can you guys help me out, I am trying to decide if that's the way to go.
thanks,
Art

If I carve the Thanksgiving bird several hours, maybe even half a day, in advance, will the meat dry out? Also, what's the best way to reheat so that it isn't dry?

(Before you point it out - yes, I know I shouldn't even be thinking of carving it in advance. But I am, for my own good reasons - just asking for advice.)

Well, born into a CofE family, brought up with no particular faith I am in turmoil. Having spoken to Muslims, Christians, Jews and a few others like Jehovahs Witnesses, which religion will assure me of my place in Heaven?

They all seem to claim to be the only true path to the one true God, how can I be sure I'm not going to Hell by being a Christian, or Jew, or Muslim, or Bhuddist etc. etc.

Someone please save me from eternal damnation...

What I mean is in today's world from my stand point is that there is many disrespect towards the. And that people should treat them great and help them anyway possibly. The world needs more empathy for them.

For ones who read this that are caregivers, doctors, and nurses etc. Keep up the good work.

WOMAN'S POEM

Before I lay me down to sleep,
I pray for a man, who's not a creep,
One who's handsome, smart and strong.
One who loves to listen long,
One who thinks before he speaks,
One who'll wash the car, not wait for weeks.
I pray he's gainfully employed,
When I spend his cash, won't be annoyed.
Pulls out my chair and opens my door,
Massages my back and begs to do more.
Oh! Send me a man who'll make love to my mind,
Knows what to answer to 'how big is my behind?'
I pray that this man will love me to no end,
And always be my very best friend.


MAN'S POEM

I pray for a deaf-mute nymphomaniac with huge boobs
who owns a pub and a golf course.

This doesn't rhyme and I don't care.

do you have friends /family or coworkers to whom you haven't told your true religious opinions? you want to keep the peace and truce without shocking anyone??? and will you ever be in complete honesty at some point with the ppl who you are telling a fairy tail to????

I am a big fat liar sometimes! and I probably will never tell some of them!

It certainly was not any great faith or work on his part while living on earth before the pillar of light. He was a Christain Killer, to the extreme!!!

I do mean the truth as in some fact/s not some 'gossip' you believed to be the truth but were mistaken.

Basically, if you could wave a "magic wand" and take any one religion and suddenly make it actually be true, which one would you choose and why?
