Seen them in some shops in England, and no doubt they are also on sale else where, but why?

(ok, the decorations hang a bit more freely, but wtf are they all about)

It's no secret that most societies around the world treat their prisoners like garbage. I wonder if anyone uses them for gladiator arena style entertainment. Throw them into a pit, throw some melee weapons, and the winner is free after like 11 wins.

That would be totally awesome and totally inhumane and awful at the same time. If that makes sense.

It seems everyone can describe Hell in a very detailed format but no one really describes heaven at all. Most just say. "well uhhh its eternal bliss." but that doesn't cut it.

If there is a heaven what would you expect it to be or does your beliefs describe it in anyway?

Do doctors who only perform unneccesary procedures such as breast enlargements, botox and collagen injections and other "enhancements" take the Hippocratic Oath?

If so, how does the oath apply? Do such procedures truly contribute to the overall health and well-being of an individual?

To society? Short and long term?

A lot of them are quick to "warn" me about my fate. It's hilarious, I'm no more scared of their scriptures than I am of the 2012 prediction of the world's end. I remember this drunk woman once told me she was a which and that I better watch out. She got so angry when I laughed, to me it's about the same thing.

Okay so Christmas is coming and there are a few things I need to save money for.
Christmas Presents= $125
Concert=$59
After Christmas shopping=$150

So I need to get $334 and I need it all By December 21st.
Yes, I know this is close.
So I need some ideas to get some money pretty fast.
I've tried so many things; babysitting, handing out flyers for Odd Jobs
Also, don't say anything about "do jobs for your parents for money" because they have none either.

BTW, I'm only 13.

I am a ew for Jesus and I think that muslims today are not really practicing the true teachings of islam. Part of me wants to hate them for the terible things they have done,but the other part wants to have mercy on them for their lack of understanding.

After having been through a painful sort of soul-searching, identity-finding couple of years, I have come to wonder if this is common in one's late 20's? I mean, did (has) anyone else experience(d) some sort of mental/spiritual/emotional growth spurt in their mid to late 20's?

Help! And I thought I was going to church with some saintly Christian men. No! They seem to think it's an invitation to reach out and pat my rear whenever they get an opportunity; in the isles, in the pews, back in the janitor's closet. Don't they know that lust in the Lord's house is specifically prohibited in the scriptures? What can I do?

Ive read the bible a few times, but what I really dont get is why christians hate homosexuals so much. I know that in the bible it spacifically says that behing homosexual is wrong, but dont you realise how many times the bible has been translated, interpreted, and how many books have been taken out? Who's to decide whick books are important or not. But, that is besides the point. My question is, why do christians judge and hate homosexuals so much? If god did not want there to be homosexuals, he wouldnt have made people homosexual. Also, does it not say in the bible that it is not our place to judge? Does it not say that we are not the ones to say who will be damned? If god is a forgiving god, why wouldnt he forgive you for being gay? I am pansexual, and I am a christian. I have had church doors closed in my face because of this fact. Why do so many christians take it into their hands to tell me I'm going to hell for who I love, and judge me before they ever know a thing about me!

And of the scientific progress thwarted by religious belief? Boards of people in the Catholic church wasting their time asking whether something is scripturally sound. Then there is all the time wasted by nonbelievers having to be PC about the issue. Religion has been somewhat of a black hole in some respects. I won't argue that some good things haven't come out of it, but it's still amazing to imagine were we'd be if it weren't for it.

I don't have a concordance and was wondering if anyone did out there. As in, on for a Bible. I need a verse that has the word "fierce" "fire" or "flames" in it and I don't want to just flip through the whole Bible trying to find one.

Anyone know of an online one, or want to find me a verse. No need to actually write the verse out. Just a simple John 3:16 would suffice.
Thank you greatly!

Ok what's up with that? You can't ask complete strangers what you should give someone for Christmas or their birthdays!!
We don't know the person; you do!!!!
And just so you know, that's 90% of giving. It's finding that perfect gift they will love.
If you don't know your boyfriend, girlfriend, wife, husband, sister, brother, mother well enough to find a perfect gift, you have a completely different problem!
yeah I know it's not a question so sue me!
Here's my question, why don't people care enough to find out from their loved ones what they like and want?
I have enough stupid candles to last me a life time and seriously just from what you've read so far, do I really sound like a candle person to you?
Yeah I'm the poster child for tranquility!
