Concerning pre-marital relationships: Sex isn't all that spells a relationship, as how the world is so wrongly misled by this. Satan wants us to bliv that a relationship is not whole without sex. As Christians we should not let Satan plant this lie in us or in the friends around us that we love.

Seriously I am indeed very hurt when young people get so involved with pre-marital sex and believed that every relationship must involve sex, which is not what God intended sex to be. God created sex as a means of highest expression of love by a couple united in marriage. And sex is only best when done within the boundaries of marriage, why can't people wait for the best to come?

Sometimes when I do meet non-Christian guys, though I may develope feelings for them, they seem to expect having sex with me if we do get together. They don't understand that, I do get very hurt seeing people that I love, being so wrongly misled by Satan into this lie.

Serious ans ONLY! Spams WILL be reported!

I am in a serious dilemma here. I am thinking about marrying my girlfriend; however, I am currently thinking about becoming a Buddhist and she is a strong Christian? Would this cause any problem down the road? Can a couple have a happy marriage with such a different belief and outlook in life? Please advise.

There was a particular question that I viewed, and I think it had 34 responses or so. The person asked if he sould attempt suicide. Some encouraged him not to - and the majority of the rest encouraged him to go ahead and kill himself with the knife. From the posting of that question - its a sad and scary posibility that he might have killed himself, and, based on belief, gone to... you kno. Why do people want to kill themselves? Is it worth it? Whats the consequences? How would you encourage someone who is going through their chronicles of misery and pain, wanting to exit the earth without due time? All answers welcome. And people, for those out their, this is a question of concern. No profanity. Thanks.

Think about it-you have given your life to God and all of a sudden a Spirit appears and says I LOVE You but you have been deceived and I don't want to lose your love for me but I am the true God and not the one you thought i was. At that point do you bow down and say OH GOD forgive me for I was just a man that was lead by my parents and fellow believers and I did not know that I was worshiping you incorrectly and will now convert to what you represent so please don't do me harm-or do you tell this spirit OH NOW YOU TELL ME you prick-I followed you and know my friends that did and have killed many in your name but it was the wrong name. You see Being religious you condemn those that do not believe the way you do in your mind or you try to convert them to believe like you do-but here's the GREAT QUESTION-Do you not prejudice those that do not believe like you do by trying to change them even if you have never really tried to find what guides them-or are and were U automatically CHOSEN?

The bible is imcomple since the people that putted it together took out numerous parts of it uncluding parts that would show that the church has always been a political agency and has always tried to cover up things that would put in doubt the belief of believers and the power of the church.Also where does it say its the word of god besides in it since it was written by man how would you know whats real or not god is a symbol this world is god gives life and takes it away nothing else and yet we choose to kill it.

I`ve found myself getting a little annoyed at some of the ignorant questions that are being put here.Its not christians that are puting other faiths down .Its those who don`t believe and can`t stand the fact that there are those who do.remarks are being made about our faith and our God thats in bad taste.

Who is the father of Joseph?
MAT 1:16 And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.

LUK 3:23 And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli.

Is Jesus equal to or lesser than?
JOH 10:30 I and my Father are one.

JOH 14:28 Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I.

Jesus' last words
Matt.27:46,50: "And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, "Eli, eli, lama sabachthani?" that is to say, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" ...Jesus, when he cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost."

Luke23:46: "And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, "Father, unto thy hands I commend my spirit:" and having said thus, he gave up the ghost."

There are many more but I' ll stop here.

Christianity and other religions are against human sacrifice to atone for our sins. We don't sacrifice a virgin on Christmas to get forgiveness. So why would an omnipotent being confuse all his would-be followers by incarnating himself in human form as his own son and then killing himself on a giant wooden cross. He could "think" the fact that we are forgiven and we would all instantly be forgiven. There are many less contradictory ways to send the message as well. And how is creating a son and sacrificing him a sacrifice for the father? And how is sacrificing yourself in human form, even though you are God and can't be destroyed a sacrifice? Seems a bit fishy too me. Christianity is nice because it promotes goodness (when not interpreted to authorize the mass killing of other religions, see Inquisition, Crusades, etc), but aren't we better off with other similar religions that don't involve such logical fallacies?

If there were no heaven and hell, would it affect how you lived your life. I'm not arguing one way or another. I'm just asking how much your religion actually influences they way you live. I guess that might be the better question, because lots of people are going to say, it's impossible to know, because there is a heaven and hell and stupid things like that.

Is it just because the Bible tells you so? What about logic? What does logic tell you?

The Mayan Long Count ends on December 21st, 2012.

If you have no idea what that means, please don't answer this question.

This was predicted thousands of years ago, but still given credit by occult theorists today. If you know or understand what I am talking about, what do you think the Mayans expected to happen on December 21st, 2012? Is it as simple as Galactic precession? Is this a New Age of the universe? Will we be passing into a portion of the universe subject to different basic physical laws? Tell me your thoughts, but don't be flippant. I don't need a one-line crack or joke, I want to know what people think who already know about and understand this subject matter.

So, imagine you create a universe....and in this universe were tiny, insignificant (insignifcant relative to your awesome universe creating powers, that is) living creatures. How petty would you have to be to then torture these creatures for all eternity if they didn't worship you?

If you come back, can you come back as an amial as a punishment or for bad karma? Also, do you believe that plants and trees and rocks have spirits and you can come back as those? If one respects nature as people, is this why?
