Do you think being away from R&S for 2 weeks will get the report trolls off my trail?

I'll have not access to the net for the next couple weeks, so I'm hoping they will forget about me. They are sinking even lower - they reported my attempt to wish a fellow R&S regular a happy birthday (posted yesterday).

Last night, my family and I were looking at Christmas lights. As we approached a corner, I saw a man on the ground, in the mud with a bike. He was hit by a car and was there for around 15 minutes and no one stopped. Even after we stopped, cars went by, some slowed and looked but kept going. It was a fairly busy corner. One other car stopped about 5 minutes after we did. The good news is that he wasn't hurt too badly, probably a broken leg but no head injuries or anything life threatening. It's just sad that he was laying there alone and hurt. Whoever hit him didn't care if he lived or died.

Where is the Christmas spirit, the Holiday cheer and good will towards man?

A lot of Atheists I know just talk about how they're not Christian and they don't believe in God. Atheist means that you don't believe in ANYTHING. Their are other religions out there, so why do they just talk about not believing in Christianity?

By the way, I'm not making a generalization. I'm just talking about the people I know.

Do you believe that animals have souls? Why or why not? What is your faith? Does your belief line up with the doctrine of the religion you identify with? To what extent would you protect an animal's rights?

Oh, and if you answered "yes" to the belief that animals can have souls, would you say ALL animals have them? If not, what would the "criteria" be?

that we are not suppose to walk in the fathers righteousness, show me God "wants" us to sin...for "he" "can do all things". It is just a matter of "FAITH".

Romans 3:10-11 says no one does good(as he is searching the whole world), NO, NOT ONE.
as the the christians look at one another, if my brother beside me can not do it neither can I.
11 says NO ONE UNDERSTANDITH( why do you not understand God?) NO ONE SEEKETH AFTER GOD. (no one is searching for GODS WAYS)

Romans 3:23 For all have sinned(not all "HAVE" TO SIN) and come short to the glory of God( you could have recieved Gods glory) Be thank full for grace.

"Seek" ye first the Kingdom of God, and HIS righteousness(perfection HIS WAYS) and ALL these things shall be added unto you. (God can give you heaven and his perfection, the blood was not needed to get into heaven. To late now right?)
Hosea 10:12 it is time to seek the Lord your God, TILL he comes and rains righteousness(perfection) upon you.
Don't you feel guilty for the blood?

We all know that fundraising enterprises charge huge administrative fees and often only a miniscule portion of the money actually goes to the intended purpose.
Trillions of dollars are donated to churches.
If God actually got that money himself, all of it, what would he do with it?

is it because he had no father from a virgin mother , because i beleive he never claimed such statement , what i know is that he said i am the servant of god .
why not say that adam was the son of god , he had no father nor mother why not say in the name of adam then and please do say he died for our sins because if god wanted that he would just do it , so why not say that adam was the son of god .

I mean, if God had a plan for me to do some great things, but someone else used their free will to shoot me in the head while robbing me... could that happen? Was it Gods plan for me to get shot, and, if, so how was it free will?

If u think Lord Jesus Christ lived taking the proof of a book called Bible which was written so many centuries before & by his so-called followers;
then Lord Rama & Lord Krishna too had lived taking the proof from Ramayana & Mahabharatha {two great epics} which were interrelated too.
Then y do they take Lord Jesus' life & they don't take Lord Rama's & Lord Krishna's life.
These r said by Hindus {these hindus i mention here r some idiotic politicians & their slaves[some feared,useless government higher officials]}whom i'll call brainless old muds .
To get their work done they 'll say like this & to give voice for an atheist they pretend to say that Lord Rama & lord Krishna r just two characters created by the authors.
My dear Christian friends don't think wrong about me; We just want the truth to be told about that bald guy & his useless principles.
Just comment on this.

With the Mega churches all over the place, the thousands of denominations, the whole "I am not religious I just have a personal relationship with Jesus" gimmick and the impersonating of other faiths to sucker in converts.

At Christmas time we hear the word "Emmanuel" as referring to the Baby Jesus. Can you give me the meaning of this word? It is sometimes spelled 'Immanuel'.

ok, so my family puts on a show every year. And this year me and my husband decided to do a white elephant game but we need some ideas about twisting it up instead of playing the normal pick a piece of paper and what ever number you pick is the order you go. We were thinking about instead of having them pick numbers they could answer christmas trivia questions and if they get it right then they get to choose a gift. What do you think? Need some more help on it.....thanks a bunch!!!

Marisol
Georgetta
Tabitha
Telena
Shalonda
Forever (and with her newer baby)
Jolene
Shawn
Simone
Moyisha
Telia (even though she said she quit her search)

All these women have been on Maury's show multiple times and matching DNA has not been found...
Could they all be immaculate conceptions?
Just curious...after all if it happened once.......
