I know it's been asked before but after the night I had l lastnight it bears repeating.
I want to be remembered for my sense of humor even in the worst of times.I went via ambulance to the ER lastnight, heart attack, my blood pressure crept silently up to 210/120 and then came the chest pains. They referred to it as a minor heart attack, but honey in my book there's no such thing as minor. But I still kept my sense of humor through it all, if you read my answer to Y's question about Smiles you'll see my point. Hugs to all, I'm thrilled to be here today! I'm home resting quietly today.

Asslamualaikom!

Sudden death was a detested thing in Islam because it comes to a person all of a sudden and gives him no time (to repent), he might be doing something evil and so his life will end on such a state.

The righteous predecessors (the reverend Companions and their followers) used to fear the bad end of one's life with a great fear. Sahl At-Tusturi said:
The Siddiqun (truthful persons) used to fear the bad end of one's life in any move or at any moment and they were described by Allah in the Holy Qur'an as: ‘
'their hearts are full of fear' [Qur'an 23: 20]
The fear of the bad end (of one's life) should be present in front of one's eye in each and every moment for fear induces (the person) to work (i.e. do good deeds).

Then why are 70% of the questions and answers on this thread, by atheists?
Atheists swear up and down that their faith and beliefs are not a religion, so I can't figure out why so many here?
Thier a majority of a minority!

Seroulsy i belive that we all should work the religens togther!

think about it. When the Jewish, Christans and Muslims were all together we obtanined so much.

Why not? WE NEED WORLD PEACE AND MUST WORK TOGETHER!!! LISTEN TO GOD FOR HE WORKS THE POWERS OF MAN AND MADE THE BIRTH OF RELIGEN AND SCINCE!! STOP THE VIOLINCE !!! NEVER KILL FOR THE SAKE OF GOD OR ANYTHING OF IT IN THAT MATTER!!! WORK AS ONE AND BRING FOURTH THE COMING OF A NEW ERA!!!!!


THE ERA IN WHICH MAN SHALL GROW FASTER AND MAY NEVER EVER NEED THE OTHER GUIDEINCE OF GOD.

besides in the Muslim holy book, it says that Gabriel said clearly "Praise to the alimghty for he knows things man knows not.!!" and Muhammed the prophet of muslims said that god written those messages in his mind.

I think iam a prophet because god has imprinted messages of untold knowledge in my mind for me to unravel and face the truth in which it is clear now to me that man should stop this nonsense of killing the human race..

1. God’s love
2. Parental love
3. Children’s love
4. Spouse love
5. Romantic love

Please do not write this off as a question of no value. If you say ‘God’s love’, how do you return it? In the other four categories don’t you give back something of value? Most of us love God theoretically and expect Him to pour His blessings over us while we do not care how people around us live; their woes; their trials and tribulations. Do you love God and expect Him to return HIS LOVE, when we, His creations through our parents are worldly blind and immersed in all deadly sins?

Know, beforehand, that I do not intend to offend anyone. I am only asking this to truly know more about the Catholic faith.

Question: Is it a sin to not have the Virgin Mary, the illustrations of the Biblical characters, the cross and, well, many other "things" that are considered sinful to Protestant Christians?

I invited my new friend and her family to spend Christmas dinner over at our house. We cooked alot of foods, in addition to decorating our house and cleaning it before they came. We also packed lots of the leftover foods for them to take home and gave them a homemade brownie and pantone bread for christmas gifts
My friend sent us a thank you note but I didn't understand why she put "over the top" in the last sentence. Did she use the "over the top" phrase incorrectly or is it me?
Here is her thank you note:

"Dear S.,

Thank you so much for dinner and for all the gifts! We enjoyed the wonderful food you prepared. And the gifts you gave were just over the top. Thank you so much for everything."

~D., M., and E.

*Also, since we do not have many guests over to our house, I tend to spoil our guests.

What Pasteur attempted to prove centuries ago, science confirms, that life cannot arise from non-life. Where did human, animal, plant life come from?

How did the universe come to be?

Why is the Earth at just the right position in space? If it was closer to the sun, we'd burn. If it was farther from the sun, we'd freeze.

Do you Atheists EVER think about whether there MAY be a god? If so, couldn't god be seeking you to think of his existence? That you are being pursued by him?

I do not want any rude answer, or I'll just skip it. Just give a response to these questions, that's it.
