I saw that Kay Jewelers was selling this cute plush stuffed animal set for charity and profits go to St.Jude. I wanted to get a few for some kids this Christmas and help give to Charity at the same time.... but when I went to check out (on their website) it said that I could only purchase 1 charity item per order and then that I couldn't even purchase the charity item unless I also bought something from Kay Jewelers. This doesn't sound like they are out to help St. Jude's to me. Their profit from any sale would far out way the profit going to St. Jude's and it only allows their purchasing customers to contribute in this way. Also, not all money from the sale is going to St. Jude... only the profit amount. So it's not like they are out any money from only selling the item with no sale.

Does anyone else think this is wrong?

Becuase in the movies many times, aliens are portrayed as coming to Earth to abduct humans and do all kinds of probing,intruding, and invasive test on people.

The atheist(and some agnostics) also want to do all kinds of probing,intruding, and invasive test on God.So does that make the atheist(and some agnostics) aliens also?

If I told you some random stranger flew from Japan to America hid under my bed, mysteriously scared my little children, and snuck around eating my food, would you believe me? Oh, also add that when I look for him, I can never mind him. I just see traces of him or sometimes see it. My family denies that he's there though. Would you still believe me?

Satan is an angel (Job 1-2). God made him before the world began (Job 38:4-7). Satan was very powerful (Revelation 12:3: "ten horns") and very wise (Revelation 12:3: "seven heads"). But he became the first sinner (1 John 3:8). Apparently at one point in the past (or possibly future) he led a rebellion in heaven against God (Revelation 12:7). In Satan’s fall, he drew a vast number of angels with him (Revelation 12:4, 9). Some of the fallen angels are loose and some are bound in a place called the Abyss (Luke 8:31). The loose ones we call "demons". Of the bound ones, there are two kinds, permanently bound (2 Peter 2:4; Jude 6) and temporarily bound (Revelation 9:1-11). Satan and his demons now wage war against God’s kingdom (Revelation 12:17). Some people think that Satan lives in hell, but hell is where Satan and the wicked will be sent at the last judgment. Satan now dwells on earth (Job 1:7). At the Second Coming of Christ, he will be bound for 1,000 years (Revelation 20:1-3). After the thousand years, he will be set free for a short time and will go out to deceive the nations (Revelation 20:7-9). The devil’s final end will be in the lake of fire (Revelation 20:10), which was prepared by God for the devil and his angels (Matthew 25:41).

Why is everone fighting over something that don't exist?
Christians, why are you so blind by the reward of heaven, that you can't have an open mind?
Atheists, remember he's real in their mind, so go easy on them.

I guess I'm a little out of touch. I've heard someone at work use this word and I've read it here a few times now. What the hell is an emokid and why does it seem to carry a negative conotation?

OK, some Christians feel the need to take the Bible literally, and accept the story of creation as absolute fact.

However, other Christians take it as just that: a story.

So why would God put such a story in the Bible? Well, think about it. If you lived in the desert, and the only animals were camels, snakes, etc. (I mean, you have never seen an ape), would you really believe it if somebody came up to you and told you that your ancestors were once animals?

I mean, could it be that God put the story of creation in the Bible just to make it easier for people to believe thousands of years ago? Or maybe God just told His message, and it got lost in translation along the way?

After all, does evolution vs. creation really affect anything about the Christian faith? I mean, if we DID evolve from an early ancestor, does that make Jesus' message any less important? Does that change anything substantial about Christianity, or is it just semantics that we are wasting our time arguing over?

Sure, I accept the scientific findings behind evolution. However, does that make me any less of a Christian? Will I be sent to hell, even though (I thought) I was a good person, and treated everyone the way Jesus taught me to, but I did not believe in evolution?

My point is, why do Christians go so out of there way to try and prove false science (Like saying dinosaurs and humans lived together) to prove their point about Creationism? Doing that just belittles the REAL Christian teachings. Why not just let it go, and worry more about Jesus’ teachings, which have far more impact on the world around us.

Get it out of your systems, I'll wait...

"Like this one?"

Ok, now that that's done, let's clarify. I don't mean all questions. Many are honest inquiries into the mindsets of others. Ignorance can be excused in many cases, as we are here to dispel that ignorance (hence asking questions). But when people try to make a point with a question, as we are often wont to do, is glaring ignorance to the point of stupidity really forgivable?

Another way of putting it, if dozens of people mock your question, at what point do you stop being insulted and say "maybe it WAS something I said"?

Is it too much to expect at least SOME honesty with one's self? That yes many are quick to comment, but perhaps sometimes rank ignorance COULD be the excuse for why you don't understand the other side's point, and thus should ideally reserve judgment rather than deride the other side's point?
