I'm just wanting to know why men curse women, I was asked a question the other day and didn't answer fast enough for the man and I was called b----, m/f, and a host of other names. Why is this? Last friday I went to our Findlay Street Market, and the man that worked behind the stand started cursing at me for saying good morning and asking for 2lbs. of plums, 2lbs. of necterines, 2lbs of peaches please? I told him I was a lady and a child of God, and I had noticed he cursed each time I came to the market, and why? He became silent and continued to work, but when I paid him for my fruit, he left the stand and I saw him walking about 3 blocks away while driving home.
I had a christian man call me a b-----, and other names Saturday. I sense an attack is on me. The christian man contacted me, and informed me that we were being attacked by the devil and that he was sorry and he would like to talk to me after work today.
Neighbors witnessed ex-wife cursing.
Will there be more cursing?

Will you be sorry for losing time with religion while you were alive or your hope to find God will not die once you are dead?

And do we add to it and create an environment that makes us comfortable and exemplifies all the beauty we have recognized to be beautiful. Do we control the physics of this environment? Also, are we currently still in and aware this environment when we choose to be aware of it. Makes me want to learn and explore as much as I can every second of the day. Also, is our search to understand others and be understood allow others to experience this environment and us to percieve theirs? Some deep questions I have been pondering, any help?

If when you die you find you have chosen the wrong religion while you were alive eg you are a christian but when you die you find out that the hindus were right can you then change religion in order to get into heaven?

Every so often I come across a question that is beyond, beyond and I want to report it but I don't have the 'report abuse" bar" on my screen. Is there another way to report it? If so could you explain it? Thank you- peace.

i hate how a lot of people think that budda came from china, thailand, japan or something cuz its not true. he was a prince from india who was hindu. he didnt agree with hinduism completly so he decided to go on a mission. he sent ambassadors to other countries in asia to spread the word of a new religion that wasnt so strict as hinduism. as he traveled himself, (he left kingdom) and went to asian countries (to the east) he was given the name budda.(just a word from his religion. (came frum a sanskrit word. languge of the hindus. dead lyke latin). he is fat because he wud accept everyones sorry in his belly.

It's not like when you go to a travel agent they say my atlas is truth, or like train fans say my loco spotters handbook is truth, is it? So why is this done by Christians? It seems to me that they aren't as sure of the truth of the bible as they are trying so desperately to appear.

I'm Christian but I don't entirely trust that everything that Christian churches do is exactly right. For example they believe that Sunday is the Sabbath when it's reallly Saturday(screw cartoons I'm tryna get to heaven).

If they aren't doing things right is their another group that loves God and don't want to change his word?

Also do I have to be in a group to go to heaven? Like, can I just go by the Holy Bible?

I am a non muslim , I am surpirsed at the number of non muslims converting to islam to get married , but I have never seen any muslim leave thier religion even if they are dearly in love to get married, as all religions are the same so it shouldnt be a problem ,

why do they stress so much in making everyone like them, is it fanatism or what , is being a muslim a ticket which is neccesary to marry a muslim or what ??

I would really appreciate answers from people who choose to convert from islam to another and the reason why they did so , was love really that powerfull??

First of all I am an eclectic so I am not trying to push any set of beliefs on anyone.

I am simply looking at the difficulty of describing the spiritual to those who don't believe in the spiritual.

Let me explain: I grew up in California and was there for the 1989 earthquake. After moving out of California I have tried to explain to others what it was like to be in that quake, but have discovered how difficult it is to accurately convey the experience, even though I can describe it in terms of physical sensations.

How then can the spiritual be explained? If an analogy is made with something in the physical world, athiests become angry. If you have never had a spiritual experience, and deny the possibilty of the spiritual, how then can I describe it to you?

I am a non believer but my friend who is a born again says that all non christians will go to hell but it might be OK because there may be different levels of hell.

Could someone tell me if this is really the case, or is hell equally awfull for everyone and is there anyway of avoiding it without actually believing in God.

How many Godparents are common to have? Isn't it just 2- a Godmother and a Godfather? Or is it common for some families to have more than this for their child? During a baptism, WHO is it that carries the baby up to the platform where the priest or pastor is standing? Is one of the parents?

12 Jesus went into the temple of God. He drove out all the people who were buying and selling in the temple. He threw down the tables of the money changers. He pushed down the seats of those who sold doves.


Did he use physical force? Did he yell and scream like a crazy person? Wouldn't the merchants have had guards or something to protect their goods from people trying to disrupt their sales?

1Jesus and his disciples came near to Jerusalem. They came to the village of Bethphage by the hill called the Mount of Olives. Then Jesus sent two of his disciples ahead.

2He said to them, `Go into the village in front of you. As soon as you go in, you will find a donkey for riding, and her young one. They are tied there. Untie them and bring them to me.

3If anyone says anything to you, tell him, "The Lord needs them. He will send them back soon." '


Matthew 21 v1-3

Here he doesn't even ask, he just walks up and takes someone else's donkey. What if some guy wandered by, hopped on your bike and started taking it away and said "Oh don't worry, the Lord needs it, I'll bring it back soon."

Although I seem to sense them, I have yet been able to "see" an aura. Interested in learning to see them, but ever exercise I've found either doesn't work or just gives me the afterimage effect (not an aura).
