I made a statement in a recent question regarding the salvation of satan.... the question was " If "Faith Alone" saves, will Satan be saved?"
and I said, you need to be saved AND accept Jesus, so in the words of the soup nazi,
"no salvation for you"


I thought it was funny .....
but of course the thumbs down flew.... what do you think? - not about my comment so much, but about humour... if we have faith in Jesus, are we allowed to be humorous?

So I just got fired from a job I really liked for a really, really dumb reason. Does the Christian god hate me? Or is it just Loki playing a trick? I'm burning my incense to Buddha and trying to stay calm, but I'm really, really mad right now.

I asked this before and got no good answer.

What passage in the Bible forbids lesbian love-making?


Roman 1:26 doesnt answer the question. It only puts it at negative light at best (let alone its not the point leading up to it), but doesn't forbidden it.

I'm just a little confused...I know evolution is real but I'm wondering if we evolved from apes then how come there are still apes and no half men half apes. This is a serious question not some Christian question in disguise. Thanks!

...and there is nothing that you can do about it? I come here and answer some questions and ask a few and avoid talking to anyone straight-on like crazy. I don't want to talk about it. I don't know how to let it go. Our worst individual fears clashed yesterday. Both have to do with rejection and validation. We agree that these fears are irrational. What makes them so is the depth and the inability to cope. She was so upset she got sick. I was so upset I got angry because I knew not how to cope with my own fears. I'm working on it. I don't know why she didn't just leave, or why she loves me so still. I know it's best not to dwell but that seems impossible right now. Blame is killing us both, and we blame ourselves. I hate myself for saying things in anger I never meant - I get so frightened when I think I'm being rejected, and my fear was playing upon her own, and vice versa. I cannot stand the fact that she is in pain right now and seeing her is impossible. She is so good to me,

I just wanted to know how people think the Universe came to be if you don't belive in God? I would think the big band theory would be it. particles that were here exploded and transformed into what we have now. How did those particles get there if no one put them there? Something can't come from nothing?

Only in certain parts of the USA. Nobody else in the developed world is seriously debating whether or not evolution happened. Nobody in Britain, France, Germany, the rest of Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Canada...

And that everybody in those countries is either laughing at you or shaking their head and saying "Americans..." as if it's all Americans?

And also that the only people in the USA that deny evolution are very religious, and did not come to that conclusion via science?

Are you also aware that sensible Christians take the Genesis story for what it is supposed to be - a metaphor?

My question is, why when you're the most powerful nation on earth do you feel the need to let it down so?

are they simply too lazy to study history? Considering that there is no factual, historical extrabiblical evidence of the existence of the biblical Jesus.. do you think that they're afraid of the truth or is it just the western couch potato way to regurgitate what the preacher says on Sunday?

Tobacco really has no use other that to smoke it. So why did God create it other than to test our free will?

She doesnt even know if this man likes her.. she just likes him.... I am not supportive in this at all. I feel its very immature of her do this. What shall i say to her when she wants to "preach" to me?

You can replace kneel with any other general gesture that tends to show respect/subservience if you like...

As for any Buddhists, would you before the pope?

Gopi:-ONE God different forms.-ONE ssrvj different forms (?)
Your question is good-though with a subtle sarcasm-Leave ssrvj-an unwept,unhonoured,unsung,material creature(Achetanam)-But God is not like that-omnipresent-omnipotent ,omniscient,immanent,all imbibisive(Chetanam-so Chaitanyam)ultimate Realty.I did not say different forms-i just translated Vedham which says--"Vipra Bahudhaa Vadhanti"=(God is ONE-but learned people call Him by different names)- but by whatever name they call God they call Me (Lord Krishna-in Bhagavad Geetha) only-"Thay pi maam eva Kountheya"
