If that's true, do you think it bothers God that most of the humans that have lived on Earth will end up in Hell? And given that God knew that was going to happen, why did He bother to create humans when he'd just end up torturing most of them for all eternity?

I've seen some claims by people in other countries that most Americans have never left their home state. I have to say, in my experience, I do not find this to be true. So my question is: Have any of you never visited another state, other than your home state, in the U.S.?

Heard a wonderful sermon today,
stay pure and wait until marriage. This lady has a kid out of wedlock and now is saved and sanctified in the church. Her kid is 12 now and she has been saved at least 5 years.
Then, she preaches against condoms and birth control. Saying bad about a lady who decides to put her kid on birth control and a school allowing condoms in the bathroom.
I know a lot of young ladies who mess up and belong to church families fall under the pressure, get baptized and then "give their hearts to the lord".
Poor things. They need therapists and ppl to talk to they do.

Some people believe that sexual harassment is part of urban African American culture...should this be an excuse?

I get this a lot in the work place and school...and I am soo conservative in the way I dress, talk and act!! What can I do to stop this??!

How can a conservative girl stop getting treated this way? Practical answers only! (Please no answers that say: stop being attractive, you're being full of yourself...etc...)

An example of this is the A-bomb. It has prevented many wars but it also has a huge downside as well. An all knowing God plainly knows what choices and decisions will be made. He knew what Satan would do in other words. You who have eyes know this logic is correct.

For those who don't read all the question - scale of 1 to 5, how much do you literally believe Genesis Ch 1 - 11?

Had dinner with a minister friend who has just left his liberal demoniation to join a more fundementalist one. That got us talking about fundamentalists and I asked him how he defines that belief system. His answer: See how they feel about the first 11 chapters of Genesis. Do they believe it verbatim (that would be 5 on my scale) including belief in the flood, creation, Babel, etc. The other extreme would be to believe it to be allegory. Where do you stand on this scale? I'm looking for a quick survey but explanations are okay.

Final question. Was my friend's theory right. Does that also refelect your beliefs on New Testament stuff like mircales, the rapture, birth and death and ressurection narritives.

My mother called me all of a sudden to pray for my brother cause she felt God put it on her heart to pray(she never calls me). Later we found out that he had crashed(fliped his vehicle 3 times) with out a seat belt and the seat wasen't even bolted down.

He is perfectly fine.
We prayed minutes before the crash when we diden't know anything we just felt we should pray.

I don't gain anything by telling you this, so this isen't made up.

For me, it was about loving to learn and impressing my parents, having space, being safe from their fighting, and later, being safe from showing off how autistic I can be. (LOL.) It basically keeps me quiet so I don't say something rude, wrong, or over the top in public. I don't really like to read, unless it's about certain kinds of things. It's just what I do to keep out of trouble.

Now why do YOU read so much?

My little brothers making some RPG thingy with something he downloaded and he hasn't got a Y!A account so he needed me to ask. He is stuck on what races and classes/jobs to use, any ideas?

Thanks!

this excludes skin color of course but what really defines you who you are? example many people attribute small eyes to asians but there are caucasians with small eyes (i.e Josh Hartnett) but yet you can still tell that he is caucasian and of course vice versa there are asian with big eyes but yet if you look at them you can still tell that they're asian? So what facial features distinguish one race/ ethnicity from another?

I mean the Jews at that point were breaking apart with everyone going in their own direction so old Moses cooked up this story in an effort to get everyone back on the same page.

if God created Adam & Eve, who created God? my mom says I asked this question when I was only four years old, though I asked who God's parents were really.
