May I please have a star? Thank you.

I wondered if I was actually going to get some if I just asked, so I had to try.
Thanks for all your opinions!
Happy Holidays!

and I suppose it's just one big coincidence that male and female sex organs fit perfectly AND can conceive a child AND pleasure both parties.
Gay men HAVE to resort to other places on the body for sex. Heterosexuals can both use their NATURAL sex organs fine, just like how it's supposed to be.

I'm trying to figure out the best way to learn a foreign language. I think I might have a little bit of a talent for following different languages...but in order to become fluent I'm not sure what the best way is to learn. Right now I'm working on Dutch because one of my friends is fluent. I would like it if I could start learning on my own and be able to give him the whole "WOW factor" by learning on my own. Any suggestions?

Don't get me wrong, I still believe in God and read the Bible and try to follow his commandments. But now, everytime I go to he church, most of the times they are talking about the devil, no to this, no to that... Everything is becoming so extremesit and orthodox... I feel as if I'm being dragged into a sect or cult, where the most important thing is the church or ministry itself... not God... Has someone ever felt the same?

Why do you use the name Jehovah? God never revealed himself as Jehovah, He reveals himself as Yahweh. Yahweh is translated in most bibles as LORD all caps and is used 6828 times in the OT. I understand that in the original Hebrew in its ancient form they didnt have vowels and so in was translated YHWH. Like my name is Daniel it would have been translated DNL. . So words were being pronouced wrong and along come the Masoretes who began adding vowel points at the bottom underneath the constanants so people would know how to pronouce the words. Well they were so hung up about saying Gods name that they put the vowel points for the word Adonai translated "Lord" under Yahweh. So when they translated the OT of the KJV they made up a word. Jehovah. It comes from the hybrid of the constanants for Yahweh with the vowels from Adonai. I guess with all that being said, why do you edit your NWT bibles with a made up word. And why is it wrong for you to use the name God choose to reveal to us?

I live across the street from a catholic rectory--or whatever you call that place where the preists live--and in the biog back yard is a 15 foot shrine to Mary complete with a statue of a kneeling worshipper so that she may be worshipped all thimes when nobody else is there--nothing at all for Jesus, no statues, no nothing--this is an expensive peice of architectural artwork, so the chuirch must have gone to great lengths to make it--in other words the Catholic church itself is spending a small fortune making it LOOK like you guys worship Mary--how can you get offended when people get that message?

Christians, do you find active witnessing and preaching to be effective, or do you prefer to witness quietly and let your life be your testimony?

She's torturing me by saying I DON'T WANT ANYTHING and being really nasty about it, which isn't unusual for her, expecially at Christmas when she likes to spread a bit of festive misery.

...why then, when Jesus himself explains what 'the kingdom of god" means, do so many Christians think the kingdom is either heaven or some future theocracy?

Luke 17:20-21
"And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:

Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you. "
