I am painting a picture and seem to have a mental block! I am including the sun, the moon and the stars, but what else should be a part of this painting?

Atm, it sucks having the "American" label in your identity and not being able to freely move about in populations where you stand out.

Why is sex wrong in most of the major religions? I mean- it had to be "God" who gave us the ability to enjoy it... A good orgasm can only be described as devine.

This is not a question about conspiracy theories or what scientists or historians say about the lost years of Jesus in the Bible, and whether or not he went to India or slept with whoever, or married whoever.

This is a question of, as a Christian, how you incorporate the fact that the first 30 years of his life are unaccounted for.

Is it important to your own personal faith that you will never know? Do you just not even think about it? Does the "lost years" make you view the entire history of Jesus or the Bible with more suspicion, or do you not see any reason or possibility of any sinister behavior or activity by those who wrote the Bible? In other words, are the lost years of Jesus a non-factor to you?

Do you ever wonder what happened? How does exploring this affect your own personal faith?

To be honest, I am very curious to know how other Christians deal with uncertainty regarding their own faith.

Then why are there still apes and they are not all humans by now? Seems like to me that there would be a total conversion by now. What do you think?

I have heard this before, and it usually isn't favored by people because it infers that we are sinners and human nature doesn't like to think that. But when you really think about it, we sinned, and were the reason Jesus had to die. Freaky huh?(no need to hear from atheists)

Is it only 'Better' to tell the truth than a life, or is it a sin to lie?

Have you ever found yourself stuck in your mind wondering this; only to discover that the more you think about it the more it seems true?

Yet trying to describe the feeling it gives you makes you feel a bit egotistical and a bit paranoid?

While all at the same time makes you feel overwhelmed with acceptance and love?

And right when you get stuck with what to say (or think, for that matter)...WHACK... the words are staring you right in the face!

Is this your world or mine... I've lost track... and I think that's the point! ;-)

Any other thoughts?

It's 12:06 AM where I live, I just got back from a walk. My insomnia coupled with my utter boredom made me decide to go on a walk around the block. I live in a relatively bad neighborhood, so I was a bit paranoid... But that didn't stop me.

So, have you ever decided to go for a walk in the middle of the night? If so, how late (or early) was it? Did you find yourself looking over your shoulder often?

I mean, why should people be expected to conform to some unwritten standard instead of being themselves for fear of offending someone's sensibilites? I can see how we shouldn't do some things for concern of others, like not being disgusting to people at dinner because it could put them off their appetite, but what freaking difference does it make if someone is wearing pajamas in public (some of the responses to that question are quite sad)? It is not hurting anyone and you do not know their circumstances - what if that is all they have to wear? And what if someone is making a scene in a store or restaruant? Again, you do not know the person - perhaps they were having a very rough day, perhaps they have autism, perhaps they have OCD and become upset if their rituals are disturbed? Why must we be soooo judgemental??

It seems like people prefer to go out or travel to see the countdown and fireworks for New Year's 2008. I've been staying at home my whole life on every New Year's. I wish I could go to New York, Australia, London, Canada, or anywhere I can see the countdown and fireworks.
