This is just a thought I had, since christian's are having their rights taken away left and right, things like
saying God's name in schools
telling people about what we believe
talking about creation (our belief) in certain settings
hanging the ten commandments in our place of work
ECT.

If these things are being pushed, along with people TARGETING christians to have "RELIGIOUS TOLERANCE"
and such, when they don't tell muslims or anyone else to have religious tolerance (as much)...

All this considered, do you think people are against christians rights?

Again, just a thought...

Thanks

It doesn't make any sense to me. I admire the few Mormon's that I know for what seems to me to be a strong moral compas and strong family values. So what if they don't go to the same brick and morter church. I don't get it.

A very good friend of some of us is gone. Im feeling particularly sad, and Ive only known her for a short time. Those who were privileged to have had her for longer in their lives, I wish I had been them.

There are a few people that I can imagine are needing our comfort very much right now.

Can we all come together and give that comfort for their loss?

Thank you

Didn't Christ himself say not to judge lest you be judged? I guess ignorance and arrogance do go hand in hand.

I'm not speaking on a technological level of course; I know that we've become more technologically adept as the years have progressed. I'm speaking more of... mindset, I suppose. Why is it possible to say that the mindset of society hasn't evolved at all, what evidence or specific examples are out there?

After eleven months of trying to Not make this election about religion, campaigns like Huckabee's and McCain's keep trying to paint themselves as more "Christian" than the others. Now, Romney has to get out there and say "Hey, Mormons are Christians, too", or people are just gonna stay home on primary/caucus days. Do you think Christianity should be an issue?

From Wikipedia: There is a theory that Christians in the fourth century assigned December 25 (the Winter Solstice on the Julian calendar) as Christ's birthday (and thus Christmas) because pagans already observed this day as a holiday. This theory is much disputed, as the dates of Saturnalia are not coincident with Christmas. A more refined argument is that Christmas was set on the feast of Sol Invictus, which was on December 25, and which had supplanted Saturnalia. However, others claim that early Christians independently came up with the date of December 25 based on a Jewish tradition of the "integral age" of the Jewish prophets (the idea that the prophets of Israel died on the same dates as their birth or conception), and a miscalculation of the date of Jesus' death. [1] A theory has been advanced that the establishment of the feast of Sol Invictus on December 25 was an attempt by Aurelian to co-opt the day already celebrated by Christians for a pagan festival.[

Do you believe you are psychic? Do you believe others can be, or that everyone has some means of a psychic ability?

If yes, why?
If no, why?

Or they come from a country that you think would be of a different religion.

For example:
A biker that is christian
Someone from India who is a devout Catholic
Someone from Korea, Japan, or China who is Christian
Someone from the Normadic countries who is very religious
A young successful attractive person who is religious
A fun loving adventurous person who is religious
Some who likes to party a lot who is religious


Do you wonder how can they be so religious? Wonder how can they combine their lifestyles with their religion?

...even though we'll be having a Secret Santa at our company party? I don't know if that will make a difference.

I work with three guys in one department and I saw some Christmas cards at the store that I'd like to get them.

Would they be weirded out or not? I did give them birthday cards for their birthdays three months ago.

In the trilogy, a 12 year old girl, Lyra starts out on a journey to find answers after her friend is kidnapped. She travels to a parallel universe where everyone's soul is manifested in an animation or altar-ego in animal form. These are called "daemon".

In the story, a malicious governing body called, "the church" (which is renamed, the Magisterium for the purpose of the movie) is known to kidnap kids for the purpose of experimentation. Lyra finds help in The Golden Compass which reveals a coded answer to any question which she asks it. At the end of the trilogy, Lyra gets to the bottom of the mystery of the missing children and finally, she and some others rebel and kill a character called, "God", specifically YAHWEH.

The first issue that Christians are struggling with is that the "villan" in the story is the church and God- YAHWEH. For those of you who know your Bible, YAHWEH is the abbreviated version of the name that Moses wrote down when God told him His name. This seems
