God Bless.

I was at a local huge retailer today, I have been looking at TV's and was hoping to find what I was looking for ! many customers where doing this as well. on one particular TV there was CNN on and it showed some victims bombed in some place in the world .PPl where mourning the loved ones they had lost and tears where going down this elderly lady's cheeks ( i think she was palestinian or Iraqi -not sure! I suffer terribly when I see that stuff -they showed blood and bodies ! I 'm not sure how long I was standing there , I had blocked out all sounds
it seemed! then the sound came back and I realized a family next to me where looking at the same TV - but laughing , and saying how cool the TV's picture was -news still showing the terror and blood. I watched the family laughing and looking closer at the TV ,when the woman of the potential buying family turned around I saw a huge cross around her neck!
my throat closed!
merry Christmas??????are you sure it's merry?
They bought it!

They are only for Christians and Atheists. Sometimes Muslims.

I feel kind of left out...

Bossy people who dip in your business & try to control your life? Folks who don't even care about you.

Jesus was liberal and was for peace and love.

If there is no god, no karma then why help others.

Shouldn't atheists be conservatives, life is in your hands not someone elses.

Shouldn't Christians be liberals, feed the poor don't fight wars, he who is without sin cast the first stone, this life isn't as important as the next so do good.

BTW I'm a conservative agnostic.

He knew what was going to happen when he created our existence so why would he do any of this unless he was looking for glorification? Was he bored one day so he made us?

if you are a good person and believe in a god do you truly think it matters what religion you are

so why bother? we should do good to others every day of the year, regardless of whether it's Christmas or not.

There was a question earlier this week from an atheists how we, the believers, would live if there was no God. I'd like to extend the same hypothetical question. If biblical God did exist, what would do and how will you live? This is in no way I'm trying to convence you of God's existence. It's purely hypothetical so please no flames please.

My next door neighbors have been playing this 80's or early 90's rap song-"You can get with this...you can get with that". Anyway, it's driving me NOOTZ!!! & hurting my ears. I shouldn't have to wear earplugs all day, every day. I've been hearing the same dumbass song for 2 days-MORNING 'til night!

It's not like we go any other time of the year, and she's far from being a bible thumper, but its a "tradition".

I'd much rather spend time with the family (which, by the way, is where it's really at...look no further).

Any suggestions?

I've just come back from visiting my husband who is in hospital and it made me realise how much we depend on the professionalism and dedication of others - doctors, nurses, surgeons, firemen, air/sea/mountain rescue volunteers and the police (yes, the guys who have to sort out the carnage after road traffic fatalities and domestic/child abuse, etc). Sometimes we take them for granted.

Can we remember them in our prayers, especially over the festive season when they will be working? Let's thank God for the invaluable service they give to society and (in some instances) for putting their lives on the line to help others.

From me to you - God bless and THANK YOU.

This is a figurative term. So with that in mind what would complete this:

I've taken college level classes on what do we know about war and the thing is i must of have been sick the day they said religion was the cause of all wars added their is no historical or emperical evidence to suggest it would be. So why do people who are uneducated about world politics say it is a cause of war?


NAME ONE WAR IN THE HISTORY OF THIS PLANET THAT WAS CAUSED BY RELIGION?


(palestine and Israel are fighing over control of the region, so the cause is terrirtory NOT RELIGION)

In addition it would be very nice if you could use some emprical evidence or writing to prove it is.

What is it that you like about it?
This year, due to the way I'm paid at work, I'll be one of those weekend-before Christmas shoppers. Any tips? Anything to avoid/look forward to?
{My father does it every year and my mom, sister and I always poke fun at him...we say that he goes to the annual "Men's shopping night" to hang out with his friends. lol.}

Thanks and Merry Christmas!

Don't give me the Koran or Bible...Explain from your own mind (if you have one) WHY.....God needs a mass slaughter of animals at this time and WHY you agree or NOT..

Genesis 6:4 says:

"The Nephilim proved to be in the earth in those days, AND ALSO AFTER THAT..." (my caps added)

Then when the spies reported back to the Israelites on what the land of Canaan was like they said (Numbers 13:32,33):

"The land, which we passed through to spy it out, is a land that eats up its inhabitants; and all the people whom we saw in the midst of it are men of extraordinary size. And there we saw the Nephilim..."


I'm not trying to make a big issue out of this, I just find it interesting.
