When I was a missionary in Japan (for the LDS church), I was instructed not to teach some Islamic men about my church, because if they converted to Christianity, they would face intense persecution, maybe even death, at the hands of their family and friends when they returned to the Middle East.

Is this true? I'm looking for honest answers from Muslims with first-hand knowledge about Middle Eastern culture and traditions. I suppose it depends on the country and the religious group, so please excuse my ignorance.

Thank you.

I mean really, if the three parts of the Godhead are the same, does this mean that the yolk is the shell? Or that the shell is the white? Or that you take the whole thing, crush and scramble it all together, and you get God?


Very confusing.

Would you rather sin or follow God? I mean like your the last person on earth. Would you want to sin, have fun a party by yourself or follow God and do what Will Smith did on the movie I Am Legend.

i think its rude to the people who don't have someone to love because they might feel really jelious and they want someone to hold and kiss in times when they need it so i think its really rude because people will feel like no one pays attention to them or loves them(they might feel like people think their ugly)

My mother-in-law stated that I didn't come down often enough when we went to visit her. In my defense it was a 14 hr drive and after saying hello to everyone I went straight to sleep for about 12 hrs. When I finally did wake up and go downstairs no one was really around anyways, if there was someone there no one was doing anything or paying any attention to us because some other friends had stopped by. Was it so wrong that I stayed for a while and then went back upstairs?

Here's an interesting theory I put up. I believe that anyone born between the years of 1970 and 1990 should be members of what I call the "Starbucks Generation." Namely, it seems as if individuals born in this 20 yr. time span (myself included) seem to frequent Starbucks quite a bit.

1. Do you agree with my "theory?" If so, why? If not, then why not?

My second question is this. Caffiene, as we all know, is a drug. Interestingly enough, people do not consume caffiene to relax or unwind. Rather, they use it to stay alert before they "crash" a few hours later and start feeling sleepy again. It's in almost everything we consume; coffee, candy, tea, soda, etc. This brings me to my second question.

2. Are we a nation/world of caffiene addicts? Are our sleeping habits so bad that we need to rely on a Red Bull or two just to make it through the day (even if we do have good sleeping habits)? What are your thoughts on the long-term use of caffiene?

Im a 15 year old male and have been living a bisexual life since I was 12. I have a sexual attraction towards guys (meaning I get horny when I see a naked guy or think about a naked guy) but not sexually attracted to women. But I do love girls. I want to date a girl and get married and have children. I can't see that future with a guy. I feel like im bi but Im not sure if im truly bi or not.

Not only is she my attorney, the family used to be neighbors of mine where I used to live. The whole family is in the legal business, so they are not wanting for money. The viewing hours are tomorrow. Is it acceptable just to go to the wake to express my condolences without having to go to the funeral?

If you vote for Romney, there is a good chance you will never die.

Follow my logic. You need a rudimentary knowledge of eschatology to understand me though.

(1) If Romney becomes president, then the entire world won't take us seriously because of the absurdity of the Mormon religion.

(2) As a result, our nation will no longer become a supernation, and Europe will unite as a single united entity and become the most powerful nations. This is a precursor to the rise of the AntiChrist.

(4) Knowing how pluralistic Romney will be, he will be all for the building of the Third temple for Jerusalem, and fund for its rapid construction. This is also a precursor to the rise of the AntiChrist. His identity will be known right after the rapture.

(5) Once the Third temple is built, the rapture will occur, and all the believers of Jesus will be taken up into heaven. Dead or alive.

(6) Therefore, if you vote for Romney, there is a good chance you will never die.

"Christ died for our sin." That is one of the basic teachings of Christianity. The Bible contrasts Adam with Jesus and says,1 Corinthians 15:22...For just as in Adam all are dying, so also in the Christ all will be made alive. By laying down his life, Jesus paid the price for the sin that we inherited from Adam. So if we doubt that " in Adam all are dying," how can we hope that " in Christ all will be made alive"?
