OK... I have a BIG Issue but I dont know if its suppose to be an issue or I should be thinking in another way.....

OK this is whats happening....
I go to a hispanic church .... well the thing is that I live in the border and well this church first started in mexico...... but now they opened one here in my city.... I have always liked the church and everything until .....
they started to bring people from mexico to run the church.... well these people get paid like if they were working at the church but they dont have any papers.... i mean how can the offerings go to that .....
I started noticing more and more people from mexico..... actually saying that they worked there at church....
I mean should I see this as the church helping out people or what..... I mean its pretty easy to just stop going to that church but is it wrong what they are doing? or am I wrong to think like that?

Please dont judge me thats why Im asking

If God, the supposed creator of the universe, simply had to snap his fingers to make a human being (Adam), why couldn't he snap his fingers a second time to make Eve?
Is the bible implying that women are only worth a rib compared to men?

So what exaclty makes some one anti-semitic? Semite is defined as a member of any of a number of peoples of ancient southwestern Asia including the Akkadians, Phoenicians, Hebrews, and Arabs ...

So how do you clasify a person as anti-semitic? If I say "I don't care if the Jews or Palestinians control Israel"...does that make me anti-semitic? Some would say yes because in their mind the term ONLY APPLIES TO THE JEWS. You could say the Jews are anit-semitic because they are against the Palestians correct? Don't get me wrong I know what the big picture is. It is mainly a religious thing. If you say that you believe Jews are justified without believing in Jesus because they are "God's Chosen People" then you are OK. I say Jews must believe in Jesus Christ because Jesus is THE MESSIAH their Tanuk speaks of. So do you classify me as anti-semitic?

I've found many scholarly books and websites that show how most of the history of Christian martyrdom was simply made up!

Does this cast a bad light on Christianity?

If you're interested, it's an easy search on Google.

Weren't all Christ's lessons delivered by speaking?

Matt 28: 19-20 "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you."

Many people think Sunday has special spiritual significance. I am an atheist, but I still like Sundays! I had a couple of cool things happen today. First I saw a number of rare butterflies, including 2 Blue-eyed Sailors, which I have only seen in Mexico before. Second I saw 74 Mountain Plovers in a sod field, which represents about 1% of the remaining population of this endangered bird. Both things happened south of San Antonio near Pearsall, Tx. What happened to you today?

from some people. Of course I have to be a little liqoured up to use shock tactics like that. But I like to impress upon people how much of a joke that superstitious garbage is.

A friend of mine who ain't too bad, though he has clouded his mind a little with cannibus, gets a real stern look on his face as though he really thinks some kind of sky fairy will smite me.

It just seems insane to me. I'm not highly educated or even all that intelligent but God? Why would you waste your imagination like that. This god thing will have you all boxed up in your thinking.

I know I'm kinda bouncing around subjects.

I always like the, "God got me straight" thing. People will tell you about their porn addiction, drug addiction, addiction, addiction, addiction. But God took all that stuff away. Well, I would say that now they have a god addiction. Which, is better than a drug addiction but is probably just as destructive to their critical thinking. If they could find a moderated way to satisfy

I was raised atheist but sometimes questioned it, but ultimately still noticed that whether or not I believed in the concept of a "god" or not doesn't affect my daily life or happiness

If it hypothetically can be shown that Jesus did in fact have children, how would this affect Christians belief?

Is it really that big of deal if Jesus did have a wife and had children? After all it would have been highly unusual for a 33 year old Jew let alone a rabii to be unwed at time of Jesus.
