We were already very close when god called me to him, and now were becoming even closer. But if she wont convert then what do I do? How can I just walk away. I've never been this close to someone.

Natwest have got rid of the piggy bank to save offending Muslims. Does this actually offend you? We have been told in the UK that we may have to call our christmas lights 'holiday lights' because christmas offends Muslims. Does christmas offend you? A passport photo of a 5 year old girl showing her shoulders was banned and had to be retaken incase in offended Muslims. Would this actually offend you? If these things do offend you, what makes you think you have the right to try and change them anyway as this is NOT a Muslim country! You should respect our way of life. Nobody will ever stop me celebrating christmas, putting up lights and trees and calling it what I like.

MASON, Ohio -- Northeast of Cincinnati, school officials in Mason have taken some heat after two Muslim boys were offered a separate room during the lunch hour.

Superintendent Kevin Bright said it was a "fasting room." He said their parents didn't want the two high school students to have to watch classmates eat while they were fasting for Ramadan.

But school board member Jennifer Miller calls it a "prayer room." At a board meeting earlier this week, she protested, saying America is a Christian nation, not a Muslim nation.

And, a Mason parent said if one group is allowed to pray in school, everyone else should be, too.

The superintendent noted that the two students never even used the room but went to the library during lunch.

if the reason to celebrate christmas is jesus's birth,
are christians parents justified spending several hundred dollars on gifts for their children and close friends and relatives?
If so many christians are going to complain about specific christian christmas carols being banned from being performed in schools and retailers displaying "happy holidays" instead of "merry christmas," isn't it hypocritical for them to herd with the secular masses who celebrate it too materialistically? I mean, what type of message is someone sending to their child when they tell them about the importance of christ's birth and what he has done for us all and why we need to follow him, and then you give him a few hundred dollars worth of toys?
Wouldn't it glorify god more if christians would make the primary "gifting" that is given during christmas go to some type of charity or something along those lines?

Believe they are superior over non Christians? (If you believe someone is going to hell for not accepting Christ, then you believe that you are superior). Can it be plausible that your Holy Bible are myths and folklore that men choose to believe as absolute??

Okay then! How do we expect others to live and let live, when
we keep going up in their FACE. Trying to FORCE them to
accept things they don't particularly want to accept?
Equality DEMANDS Mutual respect.

I believe that the Flood was the symbollic precursor of baptism. Just as the earth was cleansed from sin by the flood, so by water are we cleansed from Original Sin. So my question is, do you believe in a literal Flood story, or do you believe it to be symbollic?

I find it quite difficult to function in the world with so many people being religious. how do you cope with life and so many people base so many decisions on religion (at work, socially,etc.).

do you ever feel isolated from societal norms.

thanks!

And I'm not saying that they aren't, personally I think it's preposterous to say that they aren't. But let's take your word for it conservative protestants. If Catholics aren't Christians then that means that Christianity is not the dominant religion (that would mean that there are about 800 million of you). Islam would be the dominant religion if you believe in the above mentioned exclusion of catholics. So, if Islam is the dominant religion, and Allah is not the same entity as Yaweh (Again, I don't agree with that, but conservative protestants seem to), then it seems that Allah is more powerful. It seems that Allah is able to influence more people with his angels and holy influeces etc.

So, assuming Catholicism is not Christianity, and Allah is a seperate entity from Yaweh, judging by the world population if we adjust it by the aformentioned variables, does this mean that Allah is a more Powerful entity? His "truth" seems to work with more people than your "truth"...

Why are so many christians and non-christians facing off? Is this the reality we want to live in? Golden rule people, it's universal.

we should also ban divorce and prosecute fornication and adultry.

More people, especially children, are hurt by divorce and unfaithful dads and moms than they are by gays marrying. Divorce changes childrens entire life and one partner walks away free or with another partner while the other raises children in poverty. Everyone's life is negatively affected.

If you truly believe in the sacredness of marriage than an iron clad contract should be drawn up and withheld by the law.

This is not my fight but if this sacredness is the only reason we are in this fight it makes no sense.

"And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery...in the very act...the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?...He that is without sin, let him first cast a stone at her...being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one...Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?...No man, Lord...Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more...I am the light of the world: he that followth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life...Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man, And yet if I judge, my judgment is true..."

Did the adultress beg for mercy, ask for forgiveness, or express a belief in the divinity of Jesus to receive his love?

What does this teach you about the gift of Love?

This is for anyone who does not believe that Jesus Christ is the son of God. What would you do if the people you love the most, accepted Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior? How would you react? And why would you react this way?
