If so, please reference the book, chapter, and verse. My fiance says he doesn't want to be cremated when he dies because he heard it was wrong from somewhere. I hadn't heard it, but there's so much info, who knows. Please only answer if it's helpful in answering my question.

Im meeting my doctor boyfriend's parents for the first time. My boyfriend and I are very serious and will probably be married soon. I am from California and am flying across the country to Atlanta to meet them at their home. They are Indian and pretty conservative. I would like to bring them a gift the first time I meet them but don't quite know what to get. Does anyone have any ideas?

Sadly I have to say that I don't do a good job of praying before I eat. And I think from now on I am going to do a better job of it.

First off I am not an Atheist. However I see so many people claiming that they can PROVE God's existence.

Religious Beliefs are based on having faith. By definition Faith is belief without proof. If you have faith that something exists and then follow it up with undeniable evidence then it is no longer faith, it is fact, and the only way to prove something is fact is to have undeniable evidence.
I am not trying to state that having faith in a religion is wrong. However, there is no way to prove the existence of God and anyone that claims to be able to has serious flaws in there logic.
Belief in God is an act of Faith. Why do people keep trying turn the existence of God from Faith into Fact?

I have been to India many times and will keep going there, but it saddens me that when I give a gift to them, which comes from my heart, which I believe that is something pretty or something that they will really like and it has cost me as much as I can afford, their only comment to me is "is it real gold and what is the value" When I say that perhaps no it is not real gold etc they just give a small smile and say oh well, nice and they do not use what I have bought. I am doing Christmas presents up to send out to them, but before I had a chance, I had an email from one saying where are my gifts I need them for Christmas. This person took it as their right to have a gift sent to them. What I would like to ask people on here from the Indian community, is please can you explain what many are like this towards me when all I have done is to give them gifts when they have never received any before and show love to the people in the poorer areas, people that believed they had been forgotten.

I was just wondering about BDSM. I'm not into it and never will be. I was wanting to know if BDSM is a sin in Christianity. Is it a sin to inflict pain on others for sexual arousal? If so, why is it a sin? I'm curious to know about this. Also, do Christians believe that BDSM behavior is a mental disorder, like homosexuality and lesbianism?

And if so, do you realize that you're doing it? Does your significant other notice? What does she do about it?

What if God is a control freak and satan just wants us to have a good time? What has satan done that is so bad? Seems like God is the one who brings famine and disease.

FYI - i don't really believe in any of this crap

I have a subscription to reminisce and always like to look at the old pictures. I have never seen anyone yet with bad acne or zits. Plus, I don't notice any people out of shape (fat) either.

* In what era did acne become a problem?

I was just wondering, if as you grow older, the people you're generally attracted to get older with you, or if you get old and the people you're attracted to are less than half your age. I'm 17, and when I first went in puberty in 7th grade, I was attracted to only people my age, and now as a junior in high school it's basically people my age with the really hott exceptions, so I'm wondering if eventually my attraction to people will stop at a certain age or no? Did yours?

I had a hard time wording this sry if you don't understand.

Under God's personal supervision all of Job's children and their families and his servants and all his livestock were killed. Job lost everything he had, except his nagging wife! The Bible says that at the end God was so good to him that he made him twice as rich as he was before! Wasn't Job lucky?

Why are Christians so incensitive to such sadistically oriented stories in the Bible? They even blame the Devil for all of the God provoked evil that Job suffered! Isn't that disgusting?

Job 42:11 (KJV) Then came there unto him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, and did eat bread with him in his house: and they bemoaned him, and comforted him over ALL THE EVIL that the LORD had brought upon him.

It was about the Marine, Ty Ziegel, who is trying to get enough money from the Veterans Adm. so he and his new wife can build a home and life for themselves. His nose and chin and ears were burned off, he is blind in one eye,they removed part of his skull and put it in his side in the fatty tissue to stay moist until they removed part of his brain. He lost his left arm and only had two fingers on his right hand, and they grafted a toe from his foot to his hand to make a thumb. The Wedding picture of he and his bride is so sad. Do you think we owe these boys coming home, enought money to survive.
