Just curious to hear what people think of it...

I hear this a lot around here. Why is it that there are always those Christians who think anyone who isn't Christian is unhappy? I've also heard we non-Christians are unable to love, are living in darkness, and are angry. None of which is true.

So what's that about?

Verses please? I'm trying to find some info for my husband who is very depressed about our cat: We have spent over $2000 in 4 days on her treatment and we do not know if she will pull through. Please pray that she does, she is almost like a daughter to him who had no one while he was alone for many years in Florida while his family was far away.

I don't believe in anything as asinine as a "hell". The whole concept is ridiculous. If any such evil place existed, there are a few report happy idiots here who probably deserve to barbecue there for a few days though. What do you think?

Is being quickly and easily scandalized by the sex lives of others the same thing as being moral?

The reason I ask: I notice in my life that people who are easily scandalized by the sex lives of others, don't always live the most moral lives themselves.

Most of my acquaintances who were shocked by the recent spate of "anti-gay" republicans'/preachers' gay sex scandals, were upset about the sex involved, but didn't give the hypocrisy of those actions a 2nd thought. These are folks whom I've noticed don't show a lot of moral fiber in general.

The people I see to be moral in their lives weren't shocked by the sex, but were very upset about the hypocrisy of a supposedly anti-gay republican conservative who secretly has gay sex when he thinks he can get away with it.

So in general, is there really a negative correlation between true morality and the easily scandalized?

I apologize for being easily confused when words in the Bible sometimes seem to have different meanings than they do in English.

In context, I am referring to the discussions regarding OT law going away, with many here saying that the laws were fulfilled by Christ, meaning "To bring to an end; complete." However, the Prophecies were not completed at that time (i.e., the End Times, etc.), so that definition would not work for both Prophecies and Laws.

not only do we share 95-98% of our DNA, but chimps practice warfare, use tools, communicate with sign language (they do lack vocal chords, after all) and do simple math. Doesn't that at least make you WONDER about evolution?

Witches, or Wiccans, have always thought to be allies with the devil. I'm wondering why, because the root of the word "Wicca" means "harm none."

Is she married to both husbands in Heaven? Do things get really awkward? Or does only one of the marriages hold up? Or do people who remarry automatically not go to the same afterlife as their first spouse to avoid this kind of confusion?

nothing unclean will enter Heaven nor will anything that is not perfect. it is my understanding that Jesus is the only one that walked the earth whom was with out sin and perfect.
so do we become clean and perfect while still here if so where can I find the scripture to back that up? if we do not become perfect here then how can we enter Heaven, as no unclean thing shall enter?
I know how some of the Christian religions believe where this is concerned. some believe that all we have to do is be baptized into their religion and thats all it takes and some believe that when we accept Jesus for who
he is then we're in and some believe that their are different levels of heaven and it depends on how close we get to perfect when we are here as to which level we go to and some believe that we go to a place where Abraham and even some of our loved ones and others are waiting for judgment day and we are taught and brought to perfection there.
