anyone ever seen the show, talking to Americans, by Rick Mercer? I hope Americans don't think we put our old people out on the ice flows to die, after they become useless to society?

Psalms 14:1 The Fool has said, "NO GOD!"

(Eze 33:11) Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?

Thanks, RR

Why? I need imput, honest answers from people who are "real" in their faith. I've been told, that Jesus wants us to come to him just as we are. Ok. So that means, if I come as I am, I'm bringing all types of issues and agendas with me. I'm just being honest. Straight up. Open agendas and hidden agendas. More often than not, I barely deal with my issues let alone Christ dealing with my issues? I don't know what to think. I'm getting to the point where I'm actually tired of life. Any thoughts?

Ok, for those who have seen this it is about the same book:

I am thinking about making a book about this wolf demon( think Inuyasha) who must save the world from a great evil. The problem is she doesn't want to do and if she does she will die. There is also a group of people known as the Renegades, they help keep the world in balance and make sure that no power is greater than the other. they mainly protect the Earth, Sky, and Sea. When the great evil appears in the world, the world turns into a place like Lord of the Rings. The demon, also, lost her family and many friends. The only family she has left is her older brother. That is the main story line. I have yet to come up with a name, so if you want to you can make some suggestions.


I now have come up with some ideas about the name of my main character.

Her name will be Okami( wolf in Japanese) Ryu( dragon in Japanese)
Her nickname will be Goldleaf.
Please tell me if you like those names.

I love Luke, because I feel it concentrates more than the others on the level of compassion Christ had for humanity, and that is what intrigues me the most.

He is the Son of God, but He loves us and understands our struggles. This really helps me to get through my day.

Yet by giving tax exempt status to churches doesn't the federal government violate the establishment clause? Why should the largest business enterprise in America be tax exempt? Shouldn't all monies taken in by churches be taxed just like monies taken in by any other business?

No, I am NOT a member and don't want to be. But it's suprising how many members of the Klan or Aryan Nation or other racial hate groups are extremely religious. In view of Acts 10:34,35, how can any Christian convice himself that such beliefs would actually be acceptable to Jesus?

In R & S people run down other faiths especially the Catholic Church, read what is stated in the Bible below

Forgive One Another

Then Peter came and said to Jesus, "Lord, how many times shall my brother sin against me and I forgive him? Up to seven times?" Jesus said to him, "I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven." (Jesus quoted by Matthew 18:21-22)

"And whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone; so that your Father also who is in heaven may forgive you your transgressions." (Jesus quoted by Mark 11:25)

"Do not pass judgment and you will not be judged; and do not condemn, and you shall not be condemned; pardon, and you will be pardoned." (Jesus quoted by Luke 6:37)

Isn't time we follow the advise of Jesus and forgive if we are to be true Christians?

Everything and everyperson is related as such for all things originated with GOD. As a created thing we are merely subjects of the creator. Like paintings on the wall with the creator caring for all his creation but favoring man who was originally made by GOD "in His image. But He gave as a different stroke free will to one of His beloved creations and with that the painting became an eyesore after if "fell" off the wall causeing a rip in the fabric. God wished to mend the rip and gave His best for the repair Christ. Whose blood is the only medium used in the mending process.

I am a Christian and I have read the bible. I am not sure that I have read a part in there where it says that we should judge others. I believe that it says that we have no right to judge others since we are all sinners the same. I got on here thinking that there would be some helpful answers to questions and instead, there is so much anger, criticsism, and hate. Being gay, being of a differant religion, having a differant oppinion.........Why are we judging others? Jesus works in my life and he works in others. People will interpret things differantly no matter what but the one thing that is clear in the bible many, many times is that we all sin and your sin is no greater than mine, and mine to yours, no matter what the sin is, all sin carries the same weight in our Father's eyes. I have no right to judge others being a sinner myself. I hope that this will be read by one person who may be doing the critisism to take a deeper look at what Jesus expects of us all. God Bless.

Some Christians, or just pro-life people (not all, don't want to be accused of generalizing) can say that an abortion is wrong, even if done to save the mother's life, and still think that the death penalty is ok? Or, think that war is ok? Don't use the whole babies are innocent thing, because the bible says we are all born sinners. I mean you think it's ok to kill someone for a crime they may or may not have commited, or let kids die in a war they have no part of, but not for a woman to have an abortion. (I am only talking about extreme cases here ie rape, incest, and health complications). Please explain. I am not judging you, just asking you to make me see this any other way except for to use the word hypocritical.

This is something I've heard a lot of anti-gay Christians here say, and honestly, it baffles me. So it is ok for a man to be attracted to a man or a woman to be attracted to a woman, but if he or she acts out who he or she really is, it's a sin?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but dosn't that sound like a really miserable life? You'd be repressed, forced into a role you don't fit into, constantly ashamed of feelings that you can't control. You may be in love with one person, but because it is a sin to be with them, you must either be alone for your entire life, or else have a false, loveless relationship with someone else.

Does the Christian god really want people who are gay to be this unhappy? If so, what is the insintive for a gay person to follow the Christian god at all?

Or will you simply still think homosexuality is wrong, but search another book that agrees with your prejudice?

(a scriptosexual is, of course, a person who finds his sexual morals in the Bible)

Isn't your religion determined most of the time by where, when, and to whom you are born? Doesn't this serve as great evidence that all of them are false?
