Society & Culture - 8 December 2007

I believe in God. I believe that Jesus is The Christ. I believe that after we die we go to an afterlife and will be able to meet God face to face. However, I DON'T believe the existence of God can be proven (unless He miraculously appears in person). I believe people can feel His love and witness His miracles, so maybe you can prove it to yourself (maybe even I could from that). But how do you convince the world of His existence? I thought that would make me an Agnostic Christian, but then I've been told that I'm a Gnostic Christian. I don't think that fits me. Does anyone have any idea what I should call myself? Should i just leave it at "Christian" or what? I'm asking because many people find it contradictory for me to call myself an Agnostic Christian. So, in other words, is it "proving it" to yourself (your beliefs/feelings), or is it being able to present proof to the world? I'm obviously confused, but hopefully anyone reading this gets it.

But a footbath in an airport is fine. The foot bath would be for Muslims who wash their feet as a cleansing (which is because of their faith), meanwhile, in a nearby city, they wanted to take down a picture of Jesus holding a Bible open to a page with the Ten Commandments written on them (the same 10 commandments that our laws are based on).

Look, I don't care if there is a footbath in a bathroom or not. It doesn't bother me either way. The point is, if you are going to make an airport spend money on something that only people of a certain religious group will use (more than likely), then what is wrong with a painting of Jesus? Its not trying to force beliefs on anyone.

What are your thoughts?

And, on the other hand, what might you stand to lose by not believing in a God/Creator?

We were reading a book in Spanish class and it had the word ticket in Spanish in it but I can't remember what it was. I checked on freetranslation.com and it said "entrada" but I don't think that was the word. Are there any other words that mean ticket or pass in Spanish?

During this holiday season, should atheists be able to put up a public display like various theist groups do?

Not to be rude, but if you dont believe in God, then why does this often happen??

If you did something wrong, while cutting a block of wood, while making something, and you axidentaly cut a finger, or a hand off, why is it that most of you would say " Oh God" even though you don't believe in him??

Like I said, not to be rude, or bring anyone down, but why?

I thought God was supposed to love all his children; so why would he damn people to Hell?

Maybe if we can find some things to agree on we can learn to work together! Can all Christians, Muslims, Atheists and others agree that chocolate is a great good?

I am very interested in joining the peace corps after college because I feel like I need a break. Most of all, it is something that I have always wanted to do.
Everything is fine with me as far as being physically fit, mentally healthy.
I'm not sure what skill they'll want from me but I am ready to do whatever they want me to.
Only thing is that I have braces and I am afraid that that will stop me from going. Or if Peace Corps will cover for it when I am abroad.
Would that be a problem at all?
