And seem to prefer persecuting each other. Christian, Atheist, Muslim etc. There seems to be no room for understanding and a live and let live philosophy. Why?

im 21 and i'm thinking about getting a real job, but then i get really scared like, why do i need all that extra money, my bills can easyily be paid with a retail job but my saving from my last job are gone and i am without work, i don't want to be a greedy person, i don't want to drive or own a car.

i don't want to change and be this evil money lead person, but it would be nice to not have to eat ramen all the time..
i'm so sick of retail it seems so wrong the bosses tell you to make people buy more stuff, (they don't need it)

should i go for this job and get a the money car and lots of meaningless posessions, or should i be poor and not have anything and live i a tent.... this world feels so greedy and wrong

People are of the belief that Jesus lived his whole life without sin. Are regular non-divine humans able to do this? Is it impossible for us? If so, why is it impossible? What would happen if we could live our whole life without sin?

If there is a heaven, everyone there doesn't have a care. Yay. If there isn't a heaven and you just cease to exist when you die. Everyone that dies doesn't have a care there either. So really, there is no difference.

Also from the perspective of thinking about someone close to you that has died, does it matter to you whether they are in heaven or just a body in the earth. Do you miss them less or more if they are in one place or another?

If so, how does he choose who gets to do these things? Why does some guy making $70,000 a year find a dollar on a ground when the poor homeless starving guy doesn't?

How does he pick which athlete gets to be the big hero in each game?

Are people who win the lottery more holier and religious than those who play and never win anything?

Does anyone know where we can get the Latin text blessing for the Saint Benedict Jubilee medals over the internet? Does it need to be in Latin to be efficacious or can it be done in plain ol' english?Thanks

When I ask why people do evil things, theists say that god wanted to give us free will, and he couldn't give us free will without us sometimes choosing to do evil... but they also say that god has free will and never chooses to do evil... so there is a contradiction here. If god can have free will and yet never do evil, why didn't he make us the same way? Also, knowingly creating something that can and will do evil would seem to be an evil act in itself, and god is not supposed to be capable of evil... so there's another contradiction.

How do you religious folks maintain such a self-contradictory belief system without being compelled to say "OK, this is just too silly, and I don't believe a word of it any more"?

I was born on Rosh Hashanah and this year my 30th birthday falls on that day (on both calendars...obviously), I was thinking of having a party on the Saturday night before Yom Kippur...do you know if it's kosher?

Seriously but atheists and agnostics state that nothing can make them believe and many theists have explained that faith is not a physical, evidence type thing but a belief and a feeling inside ones heart. So why ask for evidence when you know we Christians consider it irrellevant?

Fellow Chrisitans, how would you deal with family members that are constantly trying to hurt you and disrupt your life with your husband and children?

I try to be loving towards them, I do forgive them.

What would you say to them as a Christian?

Any ideas welcome! thanks!

Let’s say your neighborhood public school has an active Young Life group. (Young Life is an evangelical Christian group). It is allowed to use school resources (classrooms, etc) and have flyers like any other school club.

What would your reaction be to a group of students who wanted to form a Witchcraft Club?

How would you feel if you found out that these students were being harassed while their club was meeting?

Would you feel any differently if it were a club for Jewish students?
