It seems like many are like me, pretty much set in their beliefs. Many are able to handle the diversity with a degree of manners and grace, while a few seem only to want to vent. Lately, I have seen a few accounts created to come on R&S to only ask profane questions, or give foul answers. How many think it was kids with no supervision? I do not want to believe that there are that many adults walking around with so much hate and rage.

I asked a question from my heart, and that is was I am looking for in an answer. I read the bible, but if someone who does not believe or care to read the bible, they will not be convinced by long quotes of scripture. Dialogue from your heart, this one time, please.

I've learned a few things since I've been coming into this forum, and I hope I may have helped a few others to learn some things, as well.
Alot of folks in this forum to seem to be filled with bitterness and rage. Some of them are kids, I'm sure, but many of them are adults. I agree, it's a frightening thought.

I am both looking for answers and answering questions as I can, on this and other topics.
As for the subject of who is asking what, I must say that I can't suppose. I feel I must treat every question as a need for more knowledge. This Belief, as my guide, simply says to educate.
In response to the desire not believe that there are a great number of adults with an overt amount of hate and rage, I must say that I agree. I do not want to believe that, either.
However, I believe that an outpouring of my advice, love, and care onto this forum of Yahoo Answers, may help to stem the flow of such things into the wider world. So, I say this: Bring it on!
Good Luck and Goddess Bless.

There are those who are seriously looking for answers. However the ones who ask profane questions, or give foul answers are guilty of religious discrimination, persecution. They credit it to freedom of speech. I call it pushing the envelope. They can't make any meaningful contribution to a subject. They choose to be abusive, which shows what they're like in their normal everyday life. Sad, but true.

Unfortunately, I have met many adults that if they were on-line would say and do exactly what we see on here and hope are just children doing it. :(
I look at your first part of your question this way...yes, many of us are firm in our belief's....but, through time, comming here can either help a non-believer see the light or can convince someone with less faith to lose what they thought they had... and I have seen an inkling of both of thoise types in just the short time that I have joined Y&A.
Unfortunately, works both ways.
On the other hand....sure is a good training ground for any Christian whom is thinking about going into any type of ministry in how to deal with sarcasm, attacks, foolishness, and so on :)
God be with you :)

Here is what the Bible states about hate shown toward Christians:
Mat 5:11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
Mat 10:22 And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved.
Luk 6:22 Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake.
Joh 15:21 But all these things will they do unto you for my name's sake, because they know not him that sent me.
But our hope is in Jesus Christ:
Isa 25:8 He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord GOD will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the earth: for the LORD hath spoken it.
Isa 25:9 And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, and he will save us: this is the LORD; we have waited for him, we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation.
Rev 21:4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
Rev 21:5 And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.
Rev 21:6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.
Rev 21:7 He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.
Rev 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
Peace be with you
