Society & Culture - 30 December 2007

Every year around this holiday season, an interesting football match is organized in my country. A team of Imams, Roman Catholic priests, Orthodox Christian priests and Rabbis (those are the mainstream religions in my country) plays a game of football against its opponents - leading country politicians.

What do you think about that? Personally I find it brilliant! Religious leaders united together against corrupted politicians. Speaks volumes! I wish we had more of that ...

A newly married man was discussing his honeymoon.He says to his buddy at lunch, "Last night, I rolled over, tapped my beautiful young wife on the shoulder, gave her a wink, and we had ourselves a performance!Later that night, about 2 o'clock, I rolled over, gave my sweetie a nudge, and we had ourselves another performance.Well, being so newly married and not yet tired of the task, I waited quietly in bed while my beauty slept until I couldn't wait any longer.It was 4 o'clock when I gave her a little nudge.She opened her blue eyes and smiled sweetly.We immediately had ourselves a rehearsal."

"A rehearsal?" his buddy asks, "Don't you mean a performance?"

"No, because a rehearsal is when nobody c***es.

Are they born eccentric, or do they gradually become eccentric? If so, how? And why does England have so many eccentrics compared to American society? What is it about English society which encourage eccentricism?

I know God will judge you in the end. I'm talking about here and now, with your own self. Of course, you shouldn't judge others.
In a court of law, is it right for a judge to judge other people when the Bible says, "Judge not and you won't be judged!"

I hate disgusting dirty and diseased public gas station bathrooms, that you have to ask a man to get a key then walk outside to. When traveling and we stop at a gas station I even pee outside to avoid them!

I walk behind of the gas station, sqwat up against the wall for balance and just pee beside the building.

What do you do to avoid these sick bathrooms?

Doesn't this seem contradictory to a religion that preaches only one God and allegedly despises paganism?

I am a Christian and have been for many years but I have also had a problem for many years-I have a sinful habit. I have asked for forgiveness a billion times but I find myself doing the same thing again and again. Recently I have decided to COMPLETELY (Without turning back) give the situation to God. Quit cold turkey in other words. But I am terrified-Does he still forgive me even though I've done it time and time again?

I know the He says that if your brother sins against you, asks you for forgiveness, and then does it again the next day that you should still forgive him. How many times? 70 times 7 (A lot in other words). But Hebrews 12:5-11 seems to say that after doing this too many times we will not be considered true children of God anymore--Has He forgiven me again or am I doomed?

In some countries they are beaten for showing a forarm or ankle. But in others they are arrested for naked breasts and skimpy swim suits. I am sure that is the way it should be.
But why are men not arrested for showing their bodies? They say they are excited by the site of women's bodies. But the sex theripist at school says that women have the same feelings men do. Only they are excited by men's bodies.
So if men expose themselves shouldn't they be arrested and beaten? Middle eastern men do not have more testesterone.
that is a scientific fact. So why do they react more violently to the site of a female body? What do you think? Shouldn't men get in trouble for exposing themselves?

Then when you say, whoa, that's a lot to pay for shoes, they get real defensive, do you think that is underlying guilt? In marketing, I think it is called cognitive dissonance?

Why can't you all just realize that what Christians believe doesn't affect you, and get on with your life? No one in the Christian cars if they same insane to you, so who are you trying to convince? Christians? They have their own religion which doesn't pertain to you. Yourself? This probably seems appropriate, as their is no reason for you to be forcing your beliefs on Yahoo.
