Due to all of the debating and arguing and fighting over who's right and who's wrong? Are there any Christians who feel sad about this? How would Christ feel if here here now?

So I grew up with really bizarre parents that were drunk and absent all the time, and would make me eat in my bedroom because they didn't want to hear me eat, and would get hysterical if I needed anything like shoes or medical care. I called 911 during an episode, but couldn't get through because my dad pulled the phone out of the wall.

So then I went to college, I wanted to be a nurse. I thought all this crud could be put to something good, and I could help people. After struggling immensely socially, I met someone and wanted to get married. I majored in something completely random and easy after not getting in to nursing school (even with my 3.7), so that I could get married, because he didn't want to get married until we were both finished with college. I wanted so badly to get married and have a normal family for the 1st time in my life, that when he changed his major and was going to take longer to graduate I dumped him so that I could get married sooner.

Assuming god existed, and there was an afterlife, and you went there - would you be able to leave? If not is it more like forced retirement home to live out eternity without any freedom?

Don't say 'you wouldn't want to, you'd be happy' - happiness is tied up with freedom.
Who thinks you'd be able to leave?

First I repent of sin.....he only hears I'm sorry from a person living in sin.....then I praise him...he will call on the mountains to praise him if we don't......then I ask him for what I want.....he will never leave you. never fail you.. He has been faithful to me.....and answered all of my prayers....some times he says no.....sometimes wait...

If everything has to be created and cannot evolve, then something must have created God? Is there a God of God, like a super God?

I asked this question a while ago but did not receive any answers other than those who refuted the fact he was in charge of the money.

Here's the scripture John 12, 4-6

12:4 But Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples (the one who was going to betray him) said, 12:5 “Why wasn’t this oil sold for three hundred silver coins and the money given to the poor?” 12:6 (Now Judas said this not because he was concerned about the poor, but because he was a thief. As keeper of the money box, he used to steal what was put into it.)

Why did Jesus put him in charge of the money?

Star does....I'm a child of God and children need correction, and punishment at times. But I respect my Lord and accept his correction....Every word we have said here will go into judgement...We have to answer for it.....I have lots to learn and have to repent every day for things the Holy Spirit has told me was wrong to do.....But I repent.....

Someone must of done something to create God or whoever, so who was it, and how did it happen? Strange if you ask me.

This interesting answer (below) was given to my question
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AlyvNbJcI1UMvjaKWQXTaDbsy6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20071026092448AAJm0qL

The answer, by "magnetic_azimuth":

i mostly ignor these questions for obvious reasons,

however based on my experience in iraq, I saw the people praying (a group of 150 or so) and I was friends with many of these men who would get together to pray so I asked them about what they thought of God, (almost all of them were agnostic or atheist.....honestly that is what they told me)

they said, they go through the motions to prevent others who actually believe in al lah from killing them for not believing


you tell me who is more dangerous

islam or atheism

I would trust an atheist with a loaded gun behind me,

You seem to disagree with my statement that ONLY God knows the hearts of, not only His followers, but people of all faiths and Atheists alike. Do you disagree with this?

I have seen many posts on here from Christians lamenting over the fact that someone dear to them doesn't believe. They speak of constantly praying over the matter and talking, talking, talking to the person so they might not burn in hell. My question is what if your non-believing friends/family members pursued you in the same way to get you to believe their way? Are not their feelings just as strong as yours are? In their minds don't they have just as much conviction for their beliefs that you do for yours? I think more people should put themselves in that position before they embark on conversion quests. What say you?

Just curious what peoples views are towards a war based on religon between muslims and christians.

Do you believe it will happen?

Who will win?

I'm basing this question on the fact there is a political and emotional rift between the two religons. Muslims purposely target christians in other countries. Bin Laden has publicly told Americans, mainly christians, to convert to Muslim if not then they will be slaughtered. I know he doesn't speak for all Muslims but he is in a position to start a fire within the Muslim world.

I'm a christian not muslim. I have nothing against any religon.

I just talked with a Christian who actually believes the miracles and stories of the Bible are actually TRUE!! He claims to actually talk to Jesus, etc...

Can you believe it!?

None of my friends (we claim to be Christians because our parents called themselves Christian) can believe it either!

I mean, come on! There's no such things as miracles, virgin births, etc. Who, in their right mind would take that stuff literally!>?

And they said that Jesus was more real to them than I was?!?

Are these people nuts? I said, "OK, Where is he? " and he said that Jesus was inside his head!!!

Why would people choose to believe literally, things that just do not make any sense whatsoever? Don't people understand delusion - and how it seems very very real??

Is it the word of God and meant to be taken litterally? (What denomination are you?)

Is it a book inspired by God but not meant to be taken litterally? (What denomination are you?)

Is it a work of fiction that should never be taken seriously?

Lots of times people ask about the differences in the Christian religions and I believe that our answers to this question will help to clarify for others what the differences are.
