Justin was ejected out of the car landing 75ft away landing on the cement. He has a shattered pelvis, and this shattered brones litterly ripped him up inside. He has a huge puncture wound in his colon stretching to his scrotum. He had 2 surgeries yesterday and today he had surgery on his pelvis. But he is still running a temp and he has a really fast heart beat. The doctors said they are more worried about infection more than anything.

Nowadays, people are taught to respect competing religions. Yet, they're also taught that competing religions don't hold God's truth.

Help!!!!!

Heaven is the most wonderful place.
How do you think you can get there?
There are so many ways that people say about how to get there but i want to know the truth.

I belive that if we belive in Jesus Christ that he died for us on the cross to wash away all our sin for us to go to heaven
and that we have to ask for forgiveness when we do something bad.

Please give me your answer~

Now the NRA are going after New Orleans police saying they violated peoples rights by collecting loose weapons after Katrina. For us people in other countries the Americans obsession about guns is unbelievable. You care more about guns than you do Human Rights,more than racial predudice,in fact pretty much more than anything else. All a gun does is kill you, more innocent people than guilty ones. Please don't quote the "The Right to bear arms" You can take that right away from people with a criminal record,so it is not concrete or unalterable, except when it seems to suit lawmakers.......

I've been with my girlfriend for almost a year now, and we get along great and we love eachother very much. But now, I'm starting to get to the point where I worry a little bit about our religious beliefs. I've been raised baptisit, and my girlfriend was raised catholic. It is safe to say that neither of us are going to give up our respective religions for the other. I worry about a few things. I'm not sure how catholics believe they will obtain admittance to heaven. And of course, you dont want someone you love to go to hell. My belief is that to get to heaven, you must accept Jesus Christ as your savior and ask him to forgive you. Do catholics believe that too? We havent really gotten into a religious discussion yet, we've both attended eachothers churches a few times, and neither of us have any problems with each others religion. I just want assurance that catholics go to heaven too! I hear a lot of poeple say that they dont.

The only thing I wanted for christmas this year was a Spa gift certificate. My fiance bought me one last year and I am SOOO stressed right now that is is REALLY what I needed.
Instead my fiance bought me two Swarovski crystal figurines, a butterfly and a rose. I HATE them. I have ranted and raved a million times how much I hate knick knacks and he should have known. I am not a Girly-girl so flowers and butter flies are not my style either.
I know they were expensive, much more than a gift certificate. Should I be upset and how do I ask him to take them back and get what I really wanted?

I like his ideas regarding herbal and alternative medicines, but I am concerned about the eldery in United States. They seem to have been neglected in favor of "welfare" recipients.

I am sick of welfare fraud and abuse of medical care in this country - who is looking out for the eldery? The dems give it minorities, welfare lifers, etc., rep create more paperwork and increase costs...

Does exist an infinit sin that deserves an infinit punishment?

Does it exist under a God full of love to his children?,

Could someone offend you so much to send him/her to a punishment like hell? (eternal pain and things like that)

i do not believe in god.
i have tried, but it simply does not make sense to me.

apparantely, the cause of my disbelief is that i don't have (blind) faith. i see unquestioning faith as a bad, and even dangerous thing, and it is certainly true that i dont simply have faith. i DO need a reason to believe in things.

Catholics only please:

Where in the Bible (not the Catechism - see below) does it say that Mary died a virgin? I can't seem to find it anywhere, and if the Bible doesn't say it, how do Catholics infer this belief?

I believe she was highly favored by God (Luke 1:28-30).
I believe she was a virgin when she was pregnant with Jesus (Luke 1:34).

But that's all I could find. The argument goes something like this: There's a light switch in a hotel room in Chicago at this very moment (This is true). The light switch is either turned on or off. (This is also true) If God said in the Bible that the light switch was turned on, then I believe it's on, but the Bible doesn't say anything about this light switch, so how can we argue about whether it's on or off?

** Not allowed to beg the question with The Catechism - Part One, Section Two, Chapter Two, Article 3, Paragraph 2 which only quotes earlier versions of the same document or the Counsel of Trent, but has no specific Biblical reference

And no soul earns evil but only against itself; nor does any bearer of burden bear the burden of another. Then to your Lord will be your return, and He will inform you of that wherein you used to differ.

And We gave them clear Signs regarding this Affair. And they did not differ but after true knowledge had come to them, through mutual envy. Verily, thy Lord will judge between them on the Day of Resurrection concerning that wherein they differed.

Hold fast, all together, to the rope of Allah and be not divided; and remember the favour of Allah which He bestowed upon you when you were enemies and He united your hearts in love, so that by His grace you became as brothers; and you were on the brink of a pit of fire and He saved you from it. Thus does Allah explain to you His commandments that you may be guided.

It is these on whom descend blessings from their Lord and also mercy, and it is these who are rightly guided.

Holy Quran

Will you not then understand?
