if so then what do you say about this verse?
Luk 16:15 And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.

I don't see the connection. Serious answers only please! And no bible or 10 commandments quoting. I'm interesting strictly in coveting the neighbor's wife--or is it ***? I always forget. Anyway, I want to covet it.

Check out this little note we just received about our Christmas gala next week here at work:

"Please note that a decision has been made to remove the psychics from the program. It was brought to our attention that several employees were uncomfortable with this form of entertainment as it may conflict with certain religious beliefs. Our vendor has assured us that these "entertainers" are there to provide some light hearted enjoyment. However, we remain committed to respecting the diversity of our employees and do not wish to make anyone feel uncomfortable with any of the activities we had planned."

They have no idea how much that betrays them. I think that those who are most like that show their vulnerability without being aware of it. I think someone who isn't so sensitive wouldn't be 'defensive' about it...rather, they'd just be cool, calm, and collected, and not to mention just and willing to be understanding and Not assaulting of the other person........

I just really hate when someone is really easily offended. lol. I guess that goes along with what they say about u hate in others what u hate most in yourself, because, truthfully, I hate it when someone has offended me..........I myself don't know whether to be hostile about the situation, like I feel that they deserve, so that they can feel bad like they made me feel bad..but usually I end up withdraeing from reacting that way and TRY to be cool, calm, and collected about it, lol..and Not offended. Emotions just get in the way, argh. Lol. Well, so tell me what you think......does it annoy you when someone is 'defensive',

I read these questions/answer and you guys go at so viciously. Why? Does it really matter. why can't either respect the other? I must admit some 'christian' answers are so extreme and biasist, ins't the 'christian' way to be tolerant and forgiving? And atheist aren't you suppose to be more open-minded and not care about religion?

Yes I know its more of the Golden Compass *drink* but these Christians who are boycotting it based on what others say is annoying me.
I'm a Christian and I've read the books and I plan on seeing the movie. You can say I am giving money to a god hating atheist all you like. I'm guessing that of all the people who worked on this film and some how get paid from this fill are not all atheists. Some might even be Christian.

You can not seriously debate a thing if you do not know a thing.
So how many intelligent believers will see it then judge its effect after that?

and please atheists no comments about there are no intelligent Christians..

though you can have a drink on me :)

OK, please just do this ONE time & hopefully you will come away with a bit of understanding…

I want you to sit back in your computer chair, close your eyes, & picture yourself having intimate relations with someone of your sex.

Really picture it…

Now open your eyes & think about how it made you feel…

Let me guess… It felt wrong… It leaves you feeling ‘icky’… It makes you feel like you need a shower…

It feels as if it goes against every instinct in your body & mind, right?

I understand this reaction.

I understand how you feel because it is exactly how I feel when I picture being intimate with a person of the opposite sex. It feels 100%, flat out WRONG.

Just like you, there is no way that anything can change my mind about this…

I understand that I could stand in front of you 24/7 giving you arguments about how you need to change your mind & that it would do not a bit of good.

Is there any point in religion or does it just cause wars and give people false hope that a big god is looking over them?

The first winner from the United States, 1973's Marjorie Wallace, was forced to resign because of her high-profile serial dating. The duties, but not the title was offered to first-runner up, Evangeline Pascual of the Philippines, which she refused. The two girls were tied at the final tabulation of the pageant competition, but the Chairman of the Board of Judges, American actor, Gregory Peck, broke the tie in favor of Wallace. Evangeline Pascual should be the official Miss World 1973 because it was her right to take over the crown but the organization did not used the rule which states if the winner can't fulfill her duties the first runner-up will take over her place.Unlike the following year the title was offered to the first runner-up who was Anneline Kriel of South Africa after revealing that the reigning Miss World was an unwed mother who was Helen Morgan of United Kingdom. If the title was offered, the Philippines would be the first Asian country to win the two major titles in the same year and not India

support life here on earth?
Considering all the gravitational forces existing: the rotation of the earth, the orbit of the moon around the earth, the orbit of the earth and planets around the sun, the solar systems journey through the galaxy, the galaxy’s journey through the universe and the universes continuing expansion. Seems to me that they are all perfectly placed to support life here on earth.

I know this question should be asked under a science category but most of you claim to have extensive understanding of matters of complex scientific theory, where simple fundies like me only understand the WORD of GOD.

And please use your own words not pages of cut and paste dribble. The way I see it, if you can’t explain it in your own words then you don’t understand it yourselves

Since man cannot establish any fruitful legislation that would curtail the wicked. Through Gods mighty power (nature), This has been acheived via the wicked weak weeding out the wicked weak. So thank God for this, dont question the plan any longer.

I'm just watching 'Deal or No Deal' (ok I'm sad) I think this is a quiz game that relolves around gambling I can only think that Asma Patel is a muslim as she is covered from head to foot! and just announced she doesn't drink. Is this against the faith. or maybe the quiz show isn't centered around gambling.
another case of Duel standards?

Does anybody else think this is obnoxious? I've had a whole bunch of people tell me how the third movie is going to end without warning me beforehand that they were telling me the ending. I didn't see this happen from people who opposed other films with a religious subtext like "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe."

Doesn't this seem inappropriate to anybody else?

Do people not realize that by telling others the end they're depriving them of the intended surprise?

Or do they not care because they that those of us who watch it are evil atheists who don't deserve the joy of watching a movie that agrees with our beliefs without knowing the ending?

The reason I ask this on R&S is because The Golden Compass is frequently discussed here.

No need for the insults here. We should all learn to get
along, in this world. You go your way, I go mine.
There is no need to waste time, trying to get a specific
group of discouraged individuals, who are cold, sad,
and lonely, to believe in the Truth of The Word. :)
They are good people, too. And need love.... So my
intent is to bring us together, as 1 big, happy family.
That is what us Christians do best, create harmony, not
discord. Or at least that is the way it should be. So my
Atheist friends, do not patronise.... Dont hate the players.
Hate the game. And if you just look around you, realize
that you are very few in number. Who is confused again ?
Best answer wins. ~~~
