I study English.

I don' t need nothing when I 'm by your side.

This is a part of the song BORN TO BE MY BABY by Bon Jovi.

Is it incorrect ,isn't it ? If so ,why do they sing like this,even though they speak English very well.

However, I will still ask it. With all of the elderly all over this country who are starving or in dire straights why do we still euthanize pets? Instead of eating rats because they cannot afford 'real' food, why doesn't the government or some other system allow for euthanized pets to be processed into food?

The Pope accepts evolution - why can't you?
The Vatican (Which I assume knows its Bible more than the very vast majority of us) has accepted evolution. They have recognized a literal enterpretation of Genesis was no longer a reasonable opinion to hold. They don't think the idea is incompatible with Christianity.

So why can't you?

As I grow in the Word, I try to do those things that are set forth in the Bible. My reading references tithing as an Old Testament practice to support the church. It is in the Old Testament that the word "tenth" is actually written. In the New Testament, I have not seen where a "tenth" was explicitly mentioned. I have only seen references to having a generous spirit. That said, living by the instructions of the New Testament, are we as Christians still expected to give a full tenth of our income?

Imagine the torture that some people would face if they knew that, throughout eternity, the "wrong kind" of people were given eternal bliss by God. Think of how the uncharitable and bigoted would suffer merely by knowing that the very people they hate the most are still beloved enough by God to be also given a place in paradise alongside the "right kind" of people.

Wouldn't that be hell to them?

Just because I have a maid who comes in every other week to clean my house, people assume I'm a snob that has nothing better to do with my money. I have five kids, six if you count my husband! :) I have a full time job, all the kids are in extracurricular activities, and I don't want to spend every spare second doing laundry and cleaning!! It doesn't make me a bad person, does it??

Just wondering...

Okay so in this dream Jesus was in my livingroom but he was dressed normal. I think he had on a t shirt and some jeans, his face wasn't white, and it wasn't black. Anyway, He asked me did I want to see what the power of his blood did when he died. I said yes but as soon as I did, all this blood fell on him and in the dream I closed my eyes. All I could hear was the sound of the blood going everywhere. I couldn't open my eyes. Then I woke up. What do you guys think? I wasn't even scared in the dream, I just didn't think I could handle what he had to show me. Now I feel like a punk.

they usually ask me to prove it. and i wonder how does one go about proving such a thing? even if i didn't do anything which you could perceive as being a "sin", and this is under the assumption that you could follow me around 24/7/365 for the rest of my life, you'd probably still doubt that i never had a bad thought. so why do you suppose so many believe that jesus never even had one bad thought? isn't that kind of hard to prove? how does one go about proving he/she is "sinless"?

My cousin and I live in different states. We are the same age (in our 20s).
We communicate via email off and on. She writes very brief emails but she talks alot in person. And I write long emails because I glean more in email conversations than I do in person.
Anyway, recently I asked her what's new in her life and she responded back and gave her her brief news and then she asked me if we're (me and my spouse) are gonna have more kids. We have only 1 so far.
I wrote back and said that I lost a baby last year in my pregnancy and I wrote a lengthy email about it and other stuff.
I have yet heard from her about acknowledging my loss. Instead, she sends "forwarded/fwd" chain emails that you fwd to your friends.
I even sent my cousin a Christmas Card but it got sent back to me because she no longer lives at that address ("return to sender" by marked by the post office).
Even her brother doesn't know her new address. Why didn't my cousin inform us? Why didn't she acknowledge my loss?

I am just curious, because although this is an English site, I gather that most of the questions and answers are American, so I wonder if who either than myself is living in France.

THEREFORE, leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God.

My neighbor has a little black kitten, she is so tiny and doesn't look to be any older than 6 to 8 months. She is pregnant and is always meowing at my door and of course I feed her, daily. This neighbor tells me that this is her second litter, that her last litter she gave birth in the woods and they all just died.
My husband told him that we are taking the kitty in and having her fixed.
My question here is this. I hate to mess with mother nature. Should I let her have these kittens? She is so young. Or should I take her to the vet now?
The man refuses to even feed the kitty and his son comes to see his father on the weekends. He is about 12 years old. I heard him ask his dad" Does that mean my kitty is their kitty now?" I came around the corner and told the young man, "No sweetheart, I'm not trying to take your kitty away."
Isn't it time in this young mans life to learn a lesson here?
That if you don't take care of your pets, you will lose them?

There are still widespread negative stereotypes about Atheism in society.

As such, I don't tend to inform people unless I know them reasonably well, and I try and steer clear of the issue if the person in question is devout. Not that I have any shame whatsoever, it is just that many people are very sensitive to Atheism.

I once was given 2 turkeys at Christmas. I had one already and did not need either of them. I knew someone who wanted one but had the other one to be given away. I had no room in my freezer and needed to give it away soon. It was below zero outside so it was safe in my car temperarily. I ran into the grocery store and saw this woman with 3 or 4 young children. I could tell she was not very well off but I really did not want to approach a stranger and offer her a turkey. But I kept seeing her in one Isle and then the check out line. I knew I was being directed to ask her but it was so hard. I bargined with God and said if the lady paid with food stamps I would offer her a the turkey. Sure enough she had food stamps so before she left I blurted out wait I have a proposition for you... smooth move on my part but when I explained she jumped at the chance for the turkey. Have any of you had a moment like this?

Of $10 a person for every illegal you turn in to be deported back to Mexico? Would it be feasible or just a pipe dream?
Please remember, I am not advocating this, I am just asking a question that should be asked.

If there is NO absolute truth as we are now taught in secular humanism and naturalism what gives you, your government, your religion or lack thereof, any legitimate right to impose your views, ideals, morals, or code of ethic upon me? IF I wish to have sex with whom I please and the ‘other’ is agreeable who are you to say no, regardless of age, or relation? If I work hard but still struggle to make ends meet, and you have an abundance that you don’t use, why should I not be able to help myself to your abundance? I need it you don’t. If you place any restrictions upon my actions as in speed limits, seatbelt laws, age of consent, age to drink, smoke or ‘fool around’ or what drugs I may or may not freely use, are you not ‘pushing’ your beliefs on me? I have seen the term ‘harm no one else’ If I want to snort coke in my home, how does that harm you? If I want to drive 120 on the freeway, how does that harm you? If I want to sleep with you 13-year-old son or daughter, and they readily agree, how does that harm you? If there is no absolute truth, what right do you have to impose your morals on me?
