Religion & Spirituality - 18 August 2006

It's weird when I'm in Italy I always get mistaken for Italian. Last summer I travelled in Ireland & they thought I was Irish (I do have freckles :) )) .

I just moved to NYC and I get asked a lot if I am Jewish (by Jewish people). No one has ever asked me that before, also, why are they disappointed/


happy weekend to all!

The Bible is false, you will get a thumbs down!
I have 3 questions for you.
Ok now Christians, I need help with this:
1.Babies that are born out of wedlock - whether or not the mother was actaully 'saved' or not or was a 'good actress' or not.. Are these babies of unwed parents allowed in church? I think that they are being exposed to the gospel - my husband thinks that it is exposing and flauting sin.
I need help with this one, and if you give me some scripure or passages to look up that would be awesome.
And 2: Are you SUPPOSED to turn you back on your family and REFUSE to have any thing to do with them if they continue in sin. My husband thinks I should have done this to my parents, since they were not Christian, but I think that "honor thy parents' is to stay around home, NOT turn away from them, visit, take meals together.. the whole 9 yards. 3. I do not know of any scripture to back this up - but if a baby that is not old enough to walk or talk or make decisions, if it dies

...'because the Bible says so' is not a legitimate reason. I do not much care for the KKK or the ACLU, but I respect their rights to act freely so long as they are not impeding anyone else's rights. So how can personal bias against homosexuality be a just reason for not allowing them to marry?

I declare there might be a God but that it doesn't really matter if he exists or not because you're free to decide what you think is right and wrong. The only law or commandment is that you don't harm anyone else in anyway.

I met this girl the other day which is the most beautiful girl I've ever seen in my life, the thing is that she is christian, but I mean a real christian, really spiritual. I like that, cause she even inspire me to search God more. But Im not as spiritual as her, and I think she at least will marry a missionary or a preacher. But this is the kind of girl I would like to be the rest of my life with. My question is do you think she will dig me even if Im not as spiritual as her. Im a christian indeed, but not a preacher or a missionary. Any advices girls ??

And causing unbelivers to mock belivers in Christ for their disunity?
And giving them another reason not to believe the gospel and be saved.
I'm horrified really.
We as Christians need a united front to counter the attacks from the evil one, so very common today,
There are souls at stake.

In other words, after the initial explanation of facts, not to justify myself further, but to remove myself from the situation? Oh, by the way, I look at my own actions and then get counsel. As I am doing superficially here and deeply elsewhere.

Peace and love

Alot of people say the Rapture occurs before the Great Tribulation but the Bible says it will occur on the last day! Check this:

Luke 17:26-30
! Corinthians 15:51-53
! Thess. 4:16-18
John 6:39
John 6:40
John 6:44
John 6:54
John 12:48
John 5:28-29
Matt. 13:30, 39

Who's right?
**I found this info in a book called "The End Of The Church Age And After" by Harold Camping

The things you do.
The things you say.
The random acts of kindness.
The thoughts you have.
The dreams you have.
The friends you have.
The life you live.
The way YOU choose to love God.

Most of the people who don't want gay marriage to become legal are Christians who believe that homosexuality is a sin. But didn't God give us the free will to sin if we wanted to? Isnt the whole point that you're supposed to choose not to sin, and not be forced into it? In that case, why do Christians not want gay people to have rights? God gave them free will, and they "chose" to be gay, so shouldn't you let them?

Please note that I am not suggesting that all chruches begin preforming weddings for gay people. I am only concerned about gay marriage in the legal sense.

Also, I don't really think being gay is a choice, I just said so for the sake of arguement.

There are two, one right after the other, and they contradict. The first one is the "let the be light" story, where God creates everything and then creates man - saying "be fertile and multiply" with no specifics on how many there are and nothing stating that they are in paradise, just that they exsist. The second is the Adam & Eve story about Eden and forbidden fruit, everything else is created after them to name.

Why are all gays going to hell? People call it an abomination, per the bible. The bible also says people should not eat shellfish, wear mixed fiber clothing, etc. Why aren't these people also an abomination.

Serious Responses Please. I want to understand.

about why europeans hate the USA...just a question why do you think we're jealous? You are the people where most of the population is overweight and most of the rest killed by shotguns which you the "nation under god" think have a right to posess and use...one of the 10 commandments "you shall not kill" so no we're not jealous of you people thinking you're so great and going to heaven thinking you're doing gods will by killing and taking revenge...we are also not jealous because you are more powerfull or so you think...any intelligent people out there know what the states would be without europe?I've lived in the USA and europe and believe me there is hardly any difference in the standard of life...so still any questions why some europeans(me not being one of them even though the things I wrote might get ppl thinking I am)hate the USA?
