so with this in mind, do you believe that maybe God has cursed the black people by making them ******?

This is a serious question, the reason I ask is because they have been put through Alot for the color of their skin.

I mean God has Cursed women with painful labor... God went too far with that one, wouldnt you agree :)

I have a brother who I love as a brother, and he is a child sex offender. I believe that he should be held accountable for what he has done, and I would even agree that capital punishment, although not even a legal option, would be just. He has completed his prison sentence, and has been out for some time. Although he hasn't said it explicitly, I know that he is now considering the option of doing something that would place him back in prison for a substantial amount of time because as a sex offender, his life is less enjoyable outside of prison than it is inside. What do you think has gone wrong here? I think that when it comes to a crime like this, you either terminate life, or give a set punishment that ends with a focus on rehabilitation and the possibility of returning to a semi-normal life. What do you think?

2 out of every three people on the planet do not accept Jesus. This saddens me because I know many will die without being saved and I know there is nothing I can do about it.

What are your thoughts on this?

Why do so many people refuse to let Jesus into their hearts?

Do you know what the new year hug is. I do, it's when you have to hug everyone at January 1st 12:00 a.m.

I hate it, I mean, why do we have to hug people that we don't even know?

Do american people do this too or is it only from hispanic cultures? What do u think about it?

I've gotten the response from at least two psychotic Christian fundies that they're "never wrong."

Well sometimes I think I do! I can go places, travel about with google earth, talk to friends from afar, no one knows the real me or what I am like, I can be myself or a totally diferrent person, I can buy things I have been searching for for ages, I can be honest without seeing that person get upset because I speak the truth, sometimes I think I am like 2 people, one for my home life and then the one who lives free on here......anyone else like this? I am sure I must have hit a nerve there!!

I recently found out my uncles were sexually abusive to my aunt (their sister) when she was younger. They've never done anything to me or my children. In fact, they've always been very loving and caring towards me (not in a gross way).

I can't seem to get over the fact that they raped their sister. Many times. It makes me want to cut off all ties with them. Is that the right thing to do? I can't really forgive them, because they didn't really do anything to me. But I can't really forget about this either. It's too big.

How do I handle this?

she goes to mass when she's supposed to, does the confession thing and all that, but doesn't really believe it. so will the universe automatically put her in the hell column, or will it cross-check its references? i just wish she'd come out of the utility closet, then i could be sure.

You may boast your union of marriage is strong
and you have the best partner, but statistics now show that divorce is common compared to our grandparents
What is the reason'
Is it because mankind is less intolerable to each other
you may claim the argument of suffering the absence of affection or love' and its time to move on
I do acknowledge certain marriages can not work [adultry violence]
Has mankind have less responsibility towards their offspring and vows then there predecessor's.
Or is there absence of spirituality

if you go to God tube .com and there is a video where a preacher sticks it to christians who have done wrong and called them on their crap... which is necessary to promote good worship ... but on thing he talks about is idol worship.. like the cross or statues of jesus this is really a form of idol worship because even Jesus said to pray in his name to God not to him.. have to many churches unknowingly put up pagan worship idols even if they are meant to be good symbols because God wanted us to worship him with our heart because that is where he resides not a statue... like the Catholics with their saints and statues of marry and rosarries sorry cant spell that word... im not try ing to upset anyone im just wondering if others have thought of this too..
