Well I took beginners french for about 6 years when in a private elementary school and I have not spoken or heard it spoken since. I am now trying to pick up from where I was and go even farther. My husband wants to learn it with me. He does not have regular access to a computer and there is no way that we can pick up and relocate to France. Also, we cannot enroll in a class at this time. So, I went to BarnesnNoble to buy a book/textbook that would include a cd-rom but there are so many different ones. I need something that would include vocabulary and grammar - not just something for a traveler. Please if you know of a good book/audio let us know. Also, what has worked for you? ....thanks!

Some of the followings seem contradictory....
..For example:

God is jealous: "For the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God." (Exod. 34:14)

Jealousy is a sin: "The acts of the sinful nature are obvious ... jealousy" (Gal. 5:19-20)

If jealousy is a sin, and God is jealous, then the only conclusion we can draw is that God is a sinner

I mean, some of them really are financially strapped and trying to stretch limited dollars, but most are just plain tightwads.

BLAH BLAH BLAH! Is all I hear from the ignorant people that keep asking that. Its not hard to pick up a book, or do some research that can answer that question. Does any one hear any thing different, you know, other than sheer ignorance?

In my World Civilizations class the other day, we were discussing the origins of religions. We were on the topic of Christianity, and he was talking about the Holy Trinity. Now my question is, why is Christianity considered monotheistic if there is the Holy Trinity. Please enlighten me (for disclosure's sake, I'm atheist)

(forgive me for this repeat: it seems no one saw the first post)

A recent post asked for the scriptual basis for Catholic teachings. As usual, the scriptual simpletons displayed their utter lack of understanding about authentic Christianity, and pulled out the tired old list of supposedly unscriptual teachings (pope, purgatory, Mary, yadda yadda yadda).

My question is: If everything pertaining to Christian teaching is to be found in the Bible, then it should say somewhere in the Bible that "everything pertaining to Christian teaching is to be found in the Bible". Where does it say that? I have found the Church in the Bible, and I have found that the Church is the "pillar and foundation of thruth" (1 Timothy 3:15). I have found deacons and bishops in the Book of Acts, but I have nowhere found that everything pertaining to Christian teaching is to be found in the Bible.

What are your thoughts:

THE BIBLE
(2,000–3,000 years ago) The earth is a sphere (Isaiah 40:22). SCIENCE THEN The earth was a flat disk. SCIENCE NOW The earth is a sphere.

THE BIBLE
(2,000–3,000 years ago) Innumerable stars (Jeremiah 33:22). SCIENCE THEN Only 1,100 stars. SCIENCE NOW Innumerable stars.

THE BIBLE
(2,000–3,000 years ago) Free float of earth in space (Job 26:7). SCIENCE THEN Earth sat on a large animal. SCIENCE NOW Free float of earth in space.

THE BIBLE
(2,000–3,000 years ago) Creation made of invisible elements (Hebrews11:3). SCIENCE THEN Science was ignorant on the subject. SCIENCE NOW Creation made of invisible elements (atoms).

THE BIBLE
(2,000–3,000 years ago) Each star is different (1 Corinthians 15:41). SCIENCE THEN All stars were the same. SCIENCE NOW Each star is different.

THE BIBLE
(2,000–3,000 years ago) Light moves (Job 38:19,20). SCIENCE THEN Light was fixed in place. SCIENCE NOW Light moves.

I was brought up that you always bring something when you are invited as a guest for Thanksgiving. If you are the guest either a dish, dessert, flowers, and or wine.

Why do people take everything so literal when some says Oh really don't bring anything. Don't you think its a nice gesture to the host? Am I wrong?

as longis heart is in the right place? Also, people say things like don't be satisfied get more and others say be satisfied which they say not being satisfied is a bad thing by having everything u want like cars and a big house. I always be satisfied with what i have but, i want to have and get more and have somthing to show for my success and enjoy it which i don't see is a bad thing at all. And, what difference does it make if i want more because it's not like it's goin' to make the world a worst place. Oh', i'm also 17 years old, just to remind u.

I have some friends to buy a little something for, for Christmas. Well, 23 to be exact. Okay, before anyones goes off on me about spending money on so many friends, these friends are part of a group I belong to; a group of women who are having a hard time conceiving children or are having difficult pregnancies, so I thought each of them needed a little Christmas cheer. Anyway, I want to get each of them a little something that isn't expensive, but still says "I thought of you". Know what I mean?

I was thinking a coffee cup from the dollar shop with some homemade hot cocoa. Or maybe a treat sack with various baked goods in it. Anyone have any ideas?

Why are they so stubborn? The Bible clearly states that we was created by God. It don't say nothing about us evolving from a bunch of dim-witted monkies!

I have been noticing all of the various arguments being put forth by believers (from all faiths) and non-believers (sorry, but I am using this loosely to refer to atheists here), and it seems that there is a great amount of hostility between the 2 viewpoints. The believers think that the atheists are going to go to hell (or something like that) and the atheists assume that believers are unintelligent and uninformed about science in general. I honestly think that in this section, it is mostly for entertainment, as someone else has pointed out. But for the record, I believe in some form of higher power, yet I also fully embrace the theory of evolution, as well as the big bang. I mean, if there is a God (which I believe there is), and it exists outside of time and space, it could never be proved or disproved. So the search for God is outside the realm of science anyway. Why does one have to go to hell if they don't believe in God? And why does one have to be an idiot to believe in God?

Or would you want to live first?

I'd want to live first because I'm afriad Heaven might not offer everything that I can do and experience right now while I'm alive here on Earth. Heaven can wait, life is temporary.

Are the ones who constantly offend GOD?

What offends you the most:
When people say something about you?
your family and friends
Someone's race or culture
Someone's Sexual Preference
Someone's Appearance
Religion
GOD and Jesus...

I don't think anyone should offend or insult another person but what I take offense to mostly is when people mock GOD and Jesus Christ
You?
