i have an atheist friend at my school. Im a Christian and i think he should give religion a chance i dont want a force him to be Christian or anything but i think he should beleive in something. I kinka think that it wasnt his choice his parents are both atheist and i have met them a few times and there are really strict. Sometimes kids talk to him about it and they wil make a joke and he ussaly laughts and pretends not to care. I tryed to invite him to a bible study that i do with alot of my friends and i tryed to convince him to come and just eat breakfast and not preasure him or anything but he wouldnt come. So im not really sure what to do i feel like i should at least try or something but i dont know what to try cause if i feel like im making him do something and its obviously not working. Should i let him decide forhimself i think if he gave it a chance even if he didnt become a christian and stayed atheist at least i know he gave it a try and isnt doing it becuase of his parents

If this is your belief, what is the purpose? Does there have to be a purpose?

A woman awakes one morning and laying next to her in bed is an unconscious man. There is also standing above her another man who explains that her bed companion is a famous, Nobel-prize winning author.

The standing, conscious fellow points out that during the night, the woman and the author were joined by several tubes, and that at this moment, her body is keeping the author alive via these tubes. He needs her to remain connected to these tubes for a total of 9 months, at which point the author will again be able to live on his own.

However, if she disconnects the tubes before the 9-month period, the author will immediately perish.

IS SHE ETHICALLY BOUND TO LEAVE THE TUBES ATTACHED FOR 9 MONTHS? OR CAN SHE ETHICALLY SAY THAT SHE WILL NOT DONATE HER BODY FOR THIS TASK, IMMEDIATELY DISCONNECT THE TUBES, AND ALLOW THE AUTHOR TO DIE?

Please detail your ethical reasoning.

When it comes to Money, you have no friends.
If you gotta speacial lady, Love her or waste her.
honors erased from the breank of man.
cursed seeds, grow yet, never learn.
Fantaszies come true in the light of suffering.
fake smiles created by greed.
show pity and you will surely bleed.
watch and learn, yet if you watch you wont understand.
Keep your eyes open for with successs comes greed
where their is money their is no friend

According to people like Bill O'Reily, who I agree with on most subjects except for those rooted in religion, claim that it is simply commemorates the birth of Jesus the Philosopher. Therefore it should be constitutional to have it displayed in the public square, after all Christmas is a federal holiday. I say, hog wash, the nativity scene is totally religious and I don't want my government promoting it in any way.

2 situations both defendants pleaded an insanity defense two real cases.

1- woman kills her newborn baby and claims god told her to do it, woman claims insanity defense jury find her guilty of insanity she ends up being dropped of the 1st degree murder charge and spending most of her life in a mental institution. to believe god told her is based on freewill and you can't go against that in court.
2- Man kills his wife because according to his religion if your wife betrays, cheats on you, you can kill her. he stabs her 24 times than takes an axe and cuts her head off. he used the axe soo visiously against her neck and so hard that you can see scratch marks on the floor. he pleads insanity because he claimed according to his religion he was allowed to kill. jury found him not guilty of insanity defense and ends up in jail for the rest of his life.

y insanity defense wasn't admissible in 2nd case? he did kill her because religion said so like the woman and god case

If Jesus was god, he never cried like this?

I am a Catholic woman. I divorced a year ago and am remarried. Does this make me an adulteress? Will I go to Hell if I don't repent the remarriage?

Please don't say I can't judge. Just say what you believe.
