I was at a family gathering and my six year old cousin asked me to tie a balloon for her. I tried but couldn't get it. I tried for a full five minutes and then did the unspeakable: I gave up and asked someone else to do it. By doing this I taught her bad values (i.e. quiting when the challenge seems insurmountable).

I failed her and I am so ashamed. I have never been more ashamed of anything in my life. In what way do you think I can make this up to God and set things back in order? I'm willing to do whatever it takes.

If you say yes, who are you to say what someone does or doesn't deserve? I'm slightly appalled that someone can call themselves christian and say something like this.

I remember a while back, for a while I'd see these flowing streams of purple, usually when at my desk. It seemed to pass through my apartment, heading outside. I'd like to know, from anyone who knows anything about energy, auras - that sort of thing - is there an explanation... or was it just an illusion?

In the Bible God gave the Ten Commandments to Moses. One of those Commandments was "Thou shalt not kill". Then in the Bible-immediatly after that- God orders Joshua to destroy a city. The order from God was to leave nothing alive but to kill every living thing. Even children and the animals as well!! What's wrong with this picture??

I mean they are male and female, No matter what partner they choose they will at least be half gay. Should hermaphrodites only marry other hermaphrodites? Doese the bible even say anything about this?

Where do they claim objective morals come from?

Sickens me! So many new young readers because of them.

Anywho, religous folk dont like the books because it contains witchcraft, right?

Well what about ....
- man speaking to another through a burning bush
- man rising from the dead
- man turning water into wine
- man splitting a mass of water and walking through it
- etc, etc ..

Heck, if thats not the same thing as witchcraft, I dont know what is.
Why is it Ok to read about it in one book, and not ok to have fun with the fantasy of it through another?

Comments?

I am a strong believing catholic, but I must go out of state for a month. There I will be living with my grandmother who is protestant. At her church communion is given. I was wondering if it is right for me to take the bread and wine if I do believe it is the real blood and body. I do not wnat to starve my soul by not taking eucharist which is basically the reason why the sabbath is holy and I must go. Which would be the greater sin, me not taking the bread and body or me taking it at a protestant church. Remember that this is the only church for miles and that I can't go to any catholic churches because they are to far away and I can not drive. Please give me honest advice on what to do and if you can give me a source or something from the catholic church that says if it's right or wrong. Thank you!

Could they stand for the pledge to the Holy Bible.

I pledge allegiance to the Christian Flag and to the Savior for whose Kingdom it stands. One Savior, crucified, risen, and coming again with life and liberty to all who believe.

I pledge allegiance to the Bible, God's Holy Word, I will make it a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path and will hide its words in my heart that I might not sin against God.

I can understand how certain faiths want to "share" their message, but all I see on here is attacks from christians to atheists and non christians. Is this really how it's done?

I mean, I am so not gay that I rarely even notice when people around me happen to be. Homosexual behaviors simply do not register in my brain.

I've had someone say to me, "look at that gay guy."
I responded, "why would I want to do that?"

Could it be that the people that complain about seeing homosexuals in public are actually trying to dissuade themselves that they are drawn to it?

i'm thinking of giving a church a try. i am very drawn to the episcopal and ELCA churches. i haven't been to church in a long time, though and frankly i am a little nervous about going. i am kind of looking for a place to meet some nice like-minded people and some solace during my hectic week. i am kind of nervous about going by myself, as most of my friends are not into going to church or go to different churches i don't want to attend. any advice or suggestions?

"Atheism, The logical choice"

who are they trying to convince and why do they/you feel the need to use it so often? Should Christians end their stuff with something like....JESUS CHRIST...HE IS THE REAL THING!!!

i totally respect your POV, but i really want to know-

isn't it really the specific religious definition(s) of god that offends your intelligence?

what do you think about this definition?

"God" is the Process of Life being Life...the Energy that cannot be destroyed but can only change form, the Intelligence behind the Process of Evolution itself, the State of Being

is in "charge" of the lake of fire? Do ppl not understand that it was created for Satan and his angels to be tormented in? People will be trespassers there. Also, why would ppl say they are Christians if they also claim that The lake of fire is not a FOREVER thing, or say they do not take it to be a real place?? One either believes GOD or they do not. Why ride the fence or suffer the eternal weggie!

It is truly a shame that Christians are repeatedly told that they should not question but to just have FAITH that it is all factual. I wonder how many other books do they read with such closed minds? To be required to read a book and not be able to 'think' and 'reason' while reading is one heck of a handicap. I, for one, can't do it.

Does he know what's going to happen, but is powerless to change it?

or,

Is he waiting for someone to make a decision, so that he can make changes?

The only thing is that you must be present when the world ends and die along with everyone else.
