according to christians, God is unchanging. however when contradictions in the bible are brought up, its cause God changed the laws. if he is unchanging why are his laws changing?

dont bother saying christ came and changed it, cause christ is god according to christians, and christ is a sacrifice which is part of an old law requirement for redemption.

They say that its true, but can't prove any of it,

There is no proof that Jesus lived, or that he was actually more than any other human (probably a guy named Jesus)

I don't mind people believing in it, but what annoys me is that, they attempt to use it to answers other's problems when they have no proof what so ever.

If I write a text about a guy named Bob, and the amazing acts that Bob accomplished and buried it in the ground. If its dug up 2000 years from now, will people suddenly believe that that was true, and that Bob was the ruler and creator of the world?

As a teen I had clarivoient abilities. I woud have dreams of events weeks prior to them happening...Kind of like deja vu. After moving out of my parents house and in with my now husband, the abilities just dissipated. Every now and then I have the dreams but they are far and few between. Is there a why I can regain them or harnis them in some way or is there a way I can lear how to use them? I really would like it back and maybe stronger than before.

I think based on the wide support of the death penalty, and people's attitudes about revenge, most people don't really believe in forgiving people.

I think forgiveness is important, or else we would all kill each other and there would be no such thing as unconditional love.

I think people in general aren't very good at forgiveness. Some people will forgive just about anything automatically, but most people like to give others a taste of their own medicine.

So I asked a question here; http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=ArpOrMZnXHGUkdfAubnedEbsy6IX?qid=20061103122922AAHb1dP

regarding if a Christian man being escorted off school grounds was the right thing to do. He was escorted off for the safety of the children - NOT religious reasons

(someone asked for a source; HERE http://www.cjad.com/node/337659

Now truth be told I semi lied. He was NOT Christian. He was not preaching about God but instead Allah. I wanted to know an honest answer about what you thought instead of the automatic profiling that seems to be happening.

The story is on the link above *Beechwood Elementary*.

My question, before I get reported for "chatting" is, Do you feel safe knowing that above all else, religion, etc that your children's safety comes first?
