If God is all powerful and all loving...?

Then why is there a hell. First off shouldn't an all powerful being be able to destroy it. And secondly, wouldn't god know that some of his creations wouldn't believe and would be condemned to hell. If he's truly loving, why would he create them even though he knows they'll end up suffering in hell? This is probably the biggest sticking point for me in my walk...

I've met someone from aa?

Let me prelude by saying that I have 3 family members that either are in, or have been in the program and I don't agree with aa methodology and theory. I recently met someone from aa, who I really like. We hit it off really well, communicate well and seem to be very compatable. I quickly found out that he is "breaking the rules" by seeing me. His sponsor has givin him flack, telling him that he shouldn't have any entanglements at this point and even when he thinks that he's ready, it should only be somone from aa. I don't like how aa demands that one deny him/herself all life experiences when they are there to only strip one bad habit from their life. I'm not conviced that addiction really is an incurable disease. Let's say that I have an incurable tumor, could I simply will it away? The answer is no. However, millions of people have quit drinking, over eating, biting their nails, smoking, etc. by sheer willpower alone. That's because addiciton is not a disease, it's a habit or a behavior. But I do think aa wishes to brain wash one into thinking that alcoholism or any addiction is an incurable disease, to keep them coming back, giving money and bringing in new members. This is what makes me feel that aa's methodology is junk psycology and just another pontificatious dogma and seems to be incestuously cult like. However, as mentioned earlier, I really like this guy and want to date him, what should I do?

Why do people believe in God?

I believe in God because I've seen how God transforms hearts and heard testimonies about how God worked and is continue working in people's lives. (:

My friend treats her 3 year old son like a girl?

Since he was a year and a half my friend started painting her son's nails, putting makeup on him and dressing him up in little girl's clothes. She takes pictures of him all dressed up and posts them on Facebook. She has admitted before that she is a feminist and wants to raise a "special" child and that children with gender disorders intrigue her. I can't help but think the worst - that she is screwing with his mentality for her own personal wants and beliefs. I spend a lot of time with them and I baby sit him from time to time and when she's not around he wants to go play outside in the dirt or will see toys for little boys at the store and asks me to buy them for him but when his mother is around all he wants is girl themed toys, jewelry, makeup, etc. I just don't understand. I am not opposed to children who have gender issues, as I do believe the brain is a powerful tool and some people may not feel comfortable in their skin as a female/male. I just feel like my friend is pushing her son into her beliefs and I don't think that this is healthy for him in the long run. I am going to talk to her about this - not to be rude but to better understand my friend on another level. I just need some words of advice so I don't feel so nervous about asking her why. How would you go about this situation?

If god proved his existence, how would that affect mans free will to choose to accept/love him?

god should be capable if he is all powerful, and he should be willing if his prominent desire is to obtain our love and acceptance. I believe by making himself directly observable to everyone (he could make it so we know its god without blowing our minds if hes all powerful) he would be setting the best conditions possible to gain our love and acceptance. we could still choose to reject him so free will applies. the best conditions to genuinely love someone is to interface with them directly, its easier to come to love someone whose existence isnt debatable. This would end atheism, agnosticism, and unite all relgions to the 'right' religion -gaining god more followers. by not proving his existence he has much less followers. why not prove he exists, shouldnt he know exactly what sort of evidence every individual needs to believe he exists?

Is it ok to make a small joke on a Job application?

This has nothing to do with a sense of humor, and everything to do with a sense of appropriateness. An employer is looking for people with good judgment. Sense of humor or not - it isn't going to demonstrate that.

Why aren't atheists as uniform in doctrine as Christians?

Why can't atheists be like those folks from the paragon of uniformity known collectively as "Christianity", where all members of the Christian cabal uniformly agree with all the beliefs and doctrines of the Amish, the Holiness Church, Mormons, Jehovah's Witnesses, Nazarenes, Baptists, Catholics, Coptics, etc? That is why when you ask any two Christians a question about salvation, baptism, Jesus, sin, Biblical meaning, or anything else you always get identical answers from them.

Is china so powerful that in theory it could invade places like england and europe if it wanted?

I wouldn't worry about it, they're much better off trading with us than fighting and they know this. If China ever did decide to invade Europe they'd have quite a distance to come and USA, UK and France have plenty of nuclear weapons to go round. There is much more of a danger of war between China and its neighbours, there are some islands and resources that Vietnam and the Philippines think belong to them but the Chinese think is part of China.

If god was powerful enough to create an entire universe, why would it need our worship?

What deep psychological need does god have for wanting people to worship it? If it is as powerful as described, then it should not have any needs. Why does it need human worship? Is it an incomplete god?

So I'm thinking about making a wild hunter. Should I make it strength less? I want it to be powerful and what not. Or should I just auto assign everything? Do i have to be rich to be strength less?

Why do christians celebrate pagan holidays?

Jesus does tell us that men will follow the doctrines of men rather than the doctrines of God. Is this why christians celebrate Easter and Christmas? Both the holidays began as pagan celebrations of the spring solstice (easter) and the winter solstice ( christmas). Then christians added christian meaning to them so that pagans would be more willing to join the church. Celebrating these holidays was never commanded by God like remembering the Passover was so why do christains celebrate them and what reasoning makes it ok to celebrate them?

How Do Jehovah's Witnesses Justify "Shunning" Of Ex-Witnesses and Claim it is "Loving"?

Do you know of the torture techniques approved & used by the catholic church?

Jesus said at Matthew 22:39 that "you must love your neighbor as yourself". At Matthew 10:24 he says "a disciple is not above his teacher". He further said at John 13:35 "all will know that you are my disciples if you have love among yourselves". Why has this mother of churches disowned the words of the master by creating & using torture devices that killed anyone who challenged THEIR authority? Here are some depraved methods used against anyone who called THEIR doctrines into question & once you've looked them over please give feedback. 1. the breast ripper 2. the iron maiden 3. the judas chair(cradle) 4. the pear 5. the spanish tickler 6. the lead sprinkler 7. the thumb screw 8. the tongue tearer 9. the saw 10. the rack 11. the stocks 12. water torture 13. the branks(dame's bridle) 14. the wheel 15. the hanging cages 16. the garotte 17. the head crusher 18. the strappado 19. the boots 20. the guillotine 21. the heretics fork 22. the burning iron chair not to mention burnings at the stake, floggings & beatings. You can google: torture devices used by the catholic church.

Does Romney believe Joseph Smith heard directly from an angel every September 22?

One might ask, "Why all the questions about Romney and basic Mormon doctrine?" Mormon beliefs are so shocking, so far from the norm of Christianity, so amazingly fradulent and outrageous, the people of the United States have a right to know who this man is that they might have as President of the United States. Does he just say he is "Mormon" and rejects all of these unbelievable and bizarre facts about the Mormon religion, or has he actually embraced these things? Do you want a man that would embrace Mormon orthodoxy to have his hand on the nuclear button? Go ahead, research what Mormons actually believe rather than stay in your ignorance. You will go away shocked and stunned by their actual beliefs. If you are a Christian...it will be difficult to actually believe some of these things are accepted by members of the Mormon Church...or are they just kept in the dark?

Why would they even bother to care?

Live your life as you see fit. I too turned away after reading the "holy" bible. It's rife with violence, greed, jealousy, et al... and that's just the god guy.

How many other Faiths believe "God" loves us personally, rather than impersonally?

God loves us. Yes, thats my belief. How or how much ? I dont know. If i say that i would be imaginative and will sound like someone who knows god in and out. No man in this world has known god so much to describe him so elaborately. Even a mild glimpse of his grace can enlighten us. I believe in an impersonal God.

Why doesn't the Church keep the Bible Sabbath?

Which Church? I'm a Seventh-day Adventist, so of course we observe the 7th day along with the Creator, but many of the fervent Sunday churches teach the real Sabbath as well. Their serious people "rest" from Friday sundown to Saturday sundown according to the commandment, and then come together for celebration on Sunday. (I feel so fine after a good Sabbath rest, I feel like celebrating on Sunday, too!)

Why are Catholic priests forbidden to marry?

I agree with that. The vow of celibacy should be optional. Seriously, maybe a lot of those abuse scandals would never have happened if the sexually-frustrated priests had another outlet.

Why do atheists think that reason and evidence work talking to theists?

You're right, in fact I would go one step further; Its pointless to have any sort of argument between theists and non theists becuase theists have the ultimate defense against any debate: When something can't be explained, 'God did it'. BELIEF is the notion that you accept something REGARDLESS OF any proof or logic or reason. It may be proof for or against, it doesn't matter. Belief and faith are simply an acceptance of something. There can be no logical argument when someone simply ACCEPTS an idea without any regard for its authenticity because they take their own acceptance as that authenticity. The same would apply to trying to use psychoLOGICAL implications. Ultimately, theism is a mental delusion. If people believed in and worshiped an actual Flying Spaghetti Monster, we'd lock them up for being crazy. But the notion of 'God' or 'Gods' or religion is so engrained in our collective society that we accept this delusion. I say let them be because there's no reasoning with them.

Why is Six Sigma a useful production management methodology in today’s world?

Six Sigma and PPM quality control systems are much tougher than the AQL systems implemented in businesses a decade or so ago. With production increasing for commodity products worldwide and profit margins decreasing, the acceptability of higher percentage production failures can no longer by financially supported. The Six Sigma method also requires reliability to be built in instead of tested in, resulting in the product intrinsically being better. Hope this helps!

What is the best aftermarket muffler for a Honda Civic?

I have a 2008 Civic LX which im trying to have a little fun with. I know only the basics when it comes to cars but I am looking for a muffler that will make the car sound a little more powerful. I've noticed that a muffler will only give you a limited boost to HP which im guessing is why they are all relatively inexpensive, but what im mainly looking for is one that will sound the best. Iv looked at a few Universal fits from DC Sports and Magnaflow, but many people have suggested Skunk2. My problem is that im not really sure which one would sound the best or how to figure that out, before buying one and having it sound like a cheap piece of ****.

Should I date a guy from AA?

Let me prelude by saying that I have 3 family members that either are in, or have been in the program and I don't agree with aa methodology and theory. I recently met someone from aa. We hit it off really well, communicate well and seem to be very compatible. He tells me that he feels very comfortable with me and really likes me, i feel the same. However, I quickly found out that he is "breaking the rules" by seeing me. His sponsor has givin him flack, telling him that he shouldn't have any entanglements at this point and even when he thinks that he's ready, it should only be somone from aa. I don't like how aa demands that one deny him/herself all life experiences when they are there to only strip one bad habbit from their life. Also, I'm not conviced that addiction really is an incurable disease. Let's say that I have an incurable tumor, could I simply will it away? The answer is no. However, millions of people have quit drinking, over eating, biting their nails, smoking, etc. by sheer willpower alone. That's becuase addiciton is not a disease, it's a habit or a behavior. But I do think aa wishes to brain wash one into thinking that alcoholism or any addiction is an incurable disease, to keep them coming back, giving money and bringing in new members. This is what makes me feel that aa's methodolgy is junk psycology and just another pontificatious dogma and seems to be incestuously cult like. But as I mentioned earlier, I really like him and he says that he really likes me but since I'm not part of the "club" should I not see him anymore?

In What Ways Are Jehovah's Witnesses Likened To the 1st Century Apostles?

None what so ever. Where in history do you find christians that fully or mostly resemble the doctrine of the "Jehovah's Witnesses"? None that I can see. The user who said that Catholics need to look back into history needs to look back at history and get facts from a neutral source.

But I am really struggling on which statistical test to use. Please help.......

Are unemployment statistics inaccurate?

All statistics are inaccurate to some degree. The point is consistency. If the same inaccuracy is there whether unemployment is 3% or 12% then we do have consistent data of employment rates and are, over time able to make a judgment on what that consistent data means for the economy.

Where do creationists get the gall to accuse evolutionists of being dishonest?

I think to a certain extent many atheist's hand's are tied by the need to be honest with themselves and others, many find it dishonest to make outrageous claims that we have not sought to validate within the boundaries of reality. That's why such outlandish claims are often made by creationists, claims with no reality or logic. Trying to address these untruths whilst staying within the boundaries of truth is nigh on impossible. Two sets of rules.

Well i am 22 years old man having some health issues..i feel uneasiness in my body sometimes and?

How can we verify the "eyewitness testimony that Jesus performed miracles"?

There are "eyewitnesses" from all religions. I was reading an article last night about supposed "eyewitness" documents from the miracles of Krishna.

Is the creationist position intellectually honest?

I've seen hundreds of evolution vs creationist questions on here but it boils down to be asking the intellectual honesty of some of those positions. There are those that teach the creationist viewpoint that take the positions that radiometric decay rates are not constant, no transitional fossils (not arguing whether this meaningful just stating it), various positions and papers the Institute for Creation Research publishes--all attempting to use reason and rational thought to disprove the concept of evolutionary biology. All well and fine--this is part of the scientific method--objections are raised--these can be falsified or not. Having said that the creationist then will not apply the same logical reasoning skills and methodology to a book he claims is the inspired literal word of his deity. If we examine that premise with intellectual honesty-it should be relatively simple to strengthen or weaken the position. The epic of gilgamesh predates the biblical noah story by over a thousand years, the king sargon myth predates the story of moses by over a thousand years, the babylonian creation myth of gods creating men from the clay of the earth predates genesis--we find most of the ten commandments in the egyptian book of the dead--and we find that many of the spectacular bible events have no historical/archeological support. It seems odd that a deity wouldn't write an original book--so the fact that these stories predate the bible and the bible stories sound suspiciously like they were taken from them--at least like the no transitional fossils idea should be suffiecent to make one question not whether there is a god--but whether the book is literal or not literal. However logical reasoning is thrown out the window in this arena--isn't that the epitomy of intellectual dishonesty? Picking and choosing? Serious question. Wouldnt creationists be better off simply saying I don't care is found nor what the explanation is--my blind faith tells me this book is true. The point is--isn't it dishonest to use logic and reason to poke holes in evolutionary biology--but forego using that same logic and reason to evaluate their own bible faith?

Why is everyone pushing this "love" doctrine ?

Yeah, while in the open, people are pushing this "love" doctrine, behind the scenes, people are pushing the "**** everybody else" doctrine. The "**** everybody else" doctrine involves obtaining something that other people don't have, and then feeling superior to others because of it. It also involves rationalizing that the reason why other people aren't as great as you is because they're lazy, or they're just not destined to be great like you are.

How can people still be religious (Christian, Jewish, Muslim, etc) after all of the scientific advancement?

After all of the scientific advancement in biology, astronomy, archaeology, etc I don't why people especially in America are so religious. Personally i feel debating things like religion and politics are pointless because they don't changes peoples ideas; But i still find it fun to do with close friends and family. When ever talk with with a religious peer/ family i find myself to be on the winning side and even have them starting to agree with me until they final stop and don't want to talk about it anymore. The conclusion I've drawn is that a lot of people deep down inside don't believe these religious doctrines because of their common sense; but also don't want to admit that what they thought to be real for such a long time was a lie. I'd like to hear your input on this so please comment!

Mormons: Do you believe you & your husband will have "spirit children" together in heaven?

Dude - I've read all your Mormon questions. The bottom line is - i don't need to know a secret handshake or password to get into Heaven like the Mormons do. Besides, Rev 22:18 - 19 pretty much sums it up for me.

How do you write a piano arrangement using chords? Which chord to use?

I can play the piano pretty well but always use sheet music. I have taught myself, and I know that there is a "methodology" (for want of a better word!) to which chords you play for which notes. Is there somewhere I can find out more information about which chords are which and which notes they sound best with? I would like to write some piano arrangements and am fine with the melody (right hand) but just don't know where to start with the left hand!

About Mental Strength...?

After 5-10 days of no sleep, you die. Everyone has a different tolerance to pain..life. I am somewhat the same way as you are. I find it hard to understand what people feel, always interpreting people wrong and I feel no empathy for anything...sometimes I feel like an empty vale wandering about. But then, I have been diagnosed as a Psychopath. And I sleep pretty well, you can set a air horn or blow something up beside me and I wont wake..just wake up later with a sore ear.

Why would anyone in their right mind thank God for healing them of a disease He gave them?

No no, God doesn't give people cancer, Satan does. Satan is to blame for everything bad, him and his evil plots against God in the Fortress of Evil along with Skeletor and Mumm-Ra and all the other fictional bad guys.

Why does friend's HDTV make my Xbox 360 lag?

My friend has an 40in LCD HDTV with HDMI, and I have an old 27in CRT type TV with RCA inputs. I play Black Ops a lot on my Xbox 360 with this TV and am a relatively decent player, but when I play on his TV it completely throws me off my game. Everything feels slower, like my character is constantly a half second behind. And when i look left and right there is a much more annoying blur effect. The graphics look great of course, but something is off. I've been reading up on it, but can't find a clear answer. Could it be that his TV has a low response time or refresh rate? (i don't know his exact model, so i don't know its specs). Or is the xbox just not powerful enough to effectively drive the game over HDMI on a large 40in HDTV? Any insight would be much appreciated, Thanks!

What are the significant differences between a hose and a tree trunk that allow the tree to move water to grea?

If you were to try and move water through a hose up to the top of a large tree, say 50 meters, you would have to pay a lot of money for a fairly powerful pump. Yet a tree routinely moves lots of water even higher than that without investing in expensive machinery. What are the significant differences between a hose and a tree trunk that allow the tree to move water to great heights? Explain just how these differences account for the tree's ability to move water.

Why would my empty (of kelp sample) control bottles be producing oxygen?

Running a series of light and dark bottle experiments in order to make P vs I curves for two species of kelp and as part of each run I have two control bottles which are filled with low oxygen, filtered sea water (same as the rest with kelp samples). In theory the oxygen level after incubation should be the same as the intial reading beforehand but I have been getting an increase, which also happens to increase with each run of the experiment. Apart from human error or error in the methodology what else could be responsible?

Why do so many people believe the trinity doctrine?

from about the 3rd century onward, Christianity and the trinity doctrine was the state religion. Anyone objecting was severely punished or tortured or burned at the stake. That helps make believers.

Omniscient inconsistency?

Does it make sense that an all knowing God would send you to eternal damnation for seeking knowledge beyond the writings of ordinary men? Even if according to those ordinary men, their writings are the words of an omniscient God? The notion of an all knowing God, suggests the universal importance of knowledge, does it not? It seems the authors of the doctrine dont want it scrutinized. But an all knowing God would know the truth is invulnerable to scrutiny. Right? Why not seek understanding while youre seeking understanding?

Non-Religious: Atheist or Skeptic. Which are you?

You've listed one of the possible definitions of the word "atheist" but not the one which fits my lack of belief in gods. Bring some valid evidence for god(s) and I will accept they exist. In the meantime, I remain in the default position, which is a lack of belief - a-theist. Compare leprechauns, fairies, thousands of gods in human history.

Additionally, consider what major stakeholders you would interview, and how you would proceed to gather information to make an informed decision.

If god was powerful enough to create an entire universe, why would it need our worship?

What deep psychological need does god have for wanting people to worship it? If it is as powerful as described, then it should not have any needs. Why does it need human worship? Is it an incomplete god?

If a woman has the right to choose then why do men have to pay child support?

Whoever doesn't have primary custody pays child support. Usually us men are proven the worst choice for primary custodian so we have to help pay for the child we produced. But I do know a couple of women who left their husbands for another man, the father got primary custody and these women pay the child support to the men.

Why do atheists like their "peer-reviewed" stamp of approval on everything?

What is a 'peer'? Somebody doing exactly the same kind of research (in which case he or she is probably a direct competitor)? Somebody in the same discipline? Somebody who is an expert on methodology? And what is review? Somebody saying 'The paper looks all right to me,' which is what peer review sometimes seems to be. Or somebody pouring all over the paper, asking for raw data, repeating analyses, checking all the references, and making detailed suggestions for improvement?

Question for TRUE christians, whats your thoughts on the name it claim teachings?

i find no were in scripture that the lord will give us what we want, but he gives us what we need.jesus said you got food, shelter, cloths? be content with that.you see its a bad circle, if you don't get what your praying for( money,health,etc..) you got sin in your life, or your just not praying hard enough, this is apostasy.if the name it claim it doctrine is correct, then why did the followers of jesus go hungry, naked, ship wrecked, murdered.. paul, peter, james, etc... they all hard hardships when following christ. the prosperity doctrine does not hold up to scripture.

So i wrote this thing but it's not completely finished yet. Some feedback please? Much appreciated?

It's a very nice and succinct description, but it makes me wonder as to the point. Is it a biology essay? I think that we need to go backward a bit and simplify before our human inadequacies topple our technological achievements. We DON'T realize how wonderful, magical, and fleeting life can be; agreed. But it's an internal struggle to overcome our minds, not the world around us IMHO.

Is the argument that we should not use the name Jehovah because bad pronunciation may offend God ?

Notice that these hypocritical fools say that God's name cannot be pronounced as Jehovah because there is no J in Hebrew or Greek. Yet, these fools still pronounce the name of God's son as Jesus. Just reading their opinions can cause you to lose brain cells. Don't do it.

What was the first boat to get up on plane?

The first planing hull is credited to Commodore Ralph Munroe, a proa (sailboat) he built in 1898. This boat reportedly attained hull speeds of more than twice the wind speed. I would hazard a guess that the native Hawiians beat this by decades. Although not usually thought so, a surfboard is a hull, and planes on the downslope of a wave.

Poll: Are you a racist?

I knew an Arab at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology who graduated with a nearly perfect GPA. He studied electrical engineering, which as far as majors go, is incredibly difficult; and MIT isn't a third tier crap hole. Job after graduation? Six figures? Not a citizen even?? Yeah, he did that. I love how some people who pitch white superiority are themselves actually really quite inferior to some minorities.

What position should I play in rugby union, for people who know the game?

Ok basically, I've just turned 17 and am currently in my schools firsts team as a flanker. I'm 6ft1 and 85 kgs, after lots of weights work because I really wanted to play forwards this year after playing backs the rest of my life. I used to be very skinny and play fullback or wing and I was relatively quick. Im now doing good as a forward in my firsts team, but when I think about it my strengths arent pushing people around etc and my due to my bodyweight I've lost lots of stamina as my bodyshape now doesnt really suit my body. I look like a big man in a small boys body if that makes sense. Im quick and powerful now, have great ballskills definately not as quick in terms of reactions as I used to be, but my final question is what position do you guys after giving you that brief info will I suit in the future.

Why do you believe the bible does not teach power meditation?

Sure it says meditate on the word of god. But why does it not teach breathing exercises which impower your soul and expands consiouness which many believe is the spirit. Could it be that the writers of the bible do not want you powerful? The bible I believe is hindering he true mission of our creator. Our creator wants us all to evolve our spirits... the writers of the "holy" books want it kept with only a select few.

Who is really the crazy one in my family?

Wow, that was long. Haha, but it seems to me that you have some serious issues with your mom. Everyone gets annoyed by their parents certain qualities, but it seems like you hate her. Also, your question was basically asking "who's crazier." You didn't really give us too much background on your issues, so I can't exactly answer that question, however, I can answer your other one. If I were in your situation, I would talk to the other members of my family, see what they think, then confront your mother all at once. Don't gang up on her though, that's not the point. The point is to get her help. Be civil about it, and maybe she'll think about going to therapy. Hope I helped. Good luck with your situation.

Theists: how do you know believing in God helps you get to heaven? Maybe it sends you to hell?

It says you're right in an old book. But what evidence is there that could possibly verify this? Can we verify that Person X who obeyed Doctrine Y indeed went to heaven? Or does it seem exactly like a cheap scam?

My car exhaust pipe clogged?

So after i got my transmission fixed i didn't notice that my car (2001 Mitsubishi eclipse gt) sounded and felt less powerful in acceleration then previously. I noticed it when i was driving home from my first day of work accelerating to 60 on the freeway, and it was really really slow. When i got near my house i parked and did a 0-60 test and i swore I heard my exhaust snort out something like a booger, and now all of a sudden it has this loud powerful and acceleration noise to it, and it accelerates a lot faster. I was wondering if this is bad or now it's nothing to worry about.

Is the public sector strike on Thursday just what is needed to put Britain back on it's feet?

Look how the recent series of national strikes in Greece and Portugal have placed these two nations back on the road to recovery. Shouldn't everyone,like everyone, go on strike indefinitely until we have achieved 100% employment and regained our position as the most powerful and wealthy nation on earth?

Which is the most powerful country in Europe?

In my own perspective, I would have to say Britain..? i dont kno im just guessing what do u guys know im sure u guys know more than me.

What makes her so fast?

I have a little paint mare. She's just barely 15 hands and a bit stubby and stock, yet she is somehow one of the fastest horses at my barn. She manages to keep up with a huge 18.1 draft/tb cross trotting, cantering, or galloping. She also can jump well over 3 feet. What is it about smaller horses that make them so powerful? It just amazes me, watching/feeling the speed and power in such a stubby little horse.

Buddhists: What is the foundation of your beliefs?

it's not really about a book or a doctrine. for some reason people think a religion needs some sort of basic guidelines and expectations. all you really need is respect.

Should one use Vine's Expository/Young or Strong if you don't believe in the faith of the authors?

Well, the JWs like to quote any number of our Trinitarian scholars to push a point that their translations or doctrines are true. I would never go that far, and nobody ever saw me quote Fred Franz to prove my Bible's translation is true. I will only rely on the REAL scholars of today, and they are NOT the Jehovah's Witnesses or the scholars they did cite to support their New World Translation like Greber, a well-known spiritist at the time!

The trinity doctrine is false.?

I am 100% sure that it false is but can someone explain (with scriptures and proper evidence) how some Christians come to there conclusion of it being correct.

Can I kill a burglar if I get the chance to?

Once you have been burglarized, you will have a completely different outlook on the subject. Having been burglarized twice, once the house, once the storage unit. We now have a fence, dog, and a security system. Retired, and living in a state that supports the Castle Doctrine, one of my fondest dreams is to be home when the next burglar drops by. Not a Christian attitude, but I will end his career permanently, and pray for forgiveness later. In your situation, calling the police may be the best of several bad choices. Good luck.

Can anyone help me with this stupid pre exam for summer course?

Smoking Weed Taste Bud reaction?

it was probably my 6 or 7th time smoking weed when i was 16 and me and my friend smoked some weed went to my house and were gonna eat some food and watch tv, but when i went to eat anything my taste buds were so dramatically enhanced i could nearly taste even the faintest flavors, anything i was tasting was so powerful it was disgusting, i tried some bread and it was horrid, luckily i found that a little water and bread cleared the horrid flavors from my mouth, can you explain what happened to my taste buds?

Why is randomness in suffering?

I am a young mother suffering from terminal cancer, would leave my children motherless, that breaks my heart. I am truthful here, in my present life I have been righteous, I have never consciously hurt any human or animal except provoked. In fact my children say to me all the time I am the best mother they could ever have. I wonder for those people who believe in God ( I want to believe as well) why would not God let me stay alive to fulfill my lifes dreams. Why am being dragged away from life against my will. I have to do so much. The other possibility is that terrible things happening to people is just bad luck. Why me? Why not me as my children need me. The questions are so many...I am grappling in the dark for answers. I just hope that light will enter my my soul and give me the answers. My love for my children is no powerful that all the religious explanation like karma, gods trials, suffering is part of life does not make sense. The murderers live until ripe old age enjoying the state benefits then a working mum like me is asking for life of giving. Why taketh away from me?

If you scrutinize your religion's doctrine, what will happen?

i know you understand that the way to get to the truth behind any claim , is to examine the claim. right? this is how detectives go about solving murder mysteries. They know that if a person makes a claim, the claim may or may not be true. it is their job to find out the truth. Any and all claims can be examined. The truth of a true claim only shines brighter through scrutiny. That shouldnt be hard for anyone to understand. What, in your opinion, will happen if you scrutinize your religion's doctrine? Will you be punished, or enlightened or something else? if someone says that they speak a truth beyond scrutiny or confirmation, does that make it so? if the truth they speak is beyond scrutiny or confirmation, how could they possibly know that it is true? Can anything unknowable be known?

Is my teacher ok, or is she really a bad teacher?

Technically she is allowed to do what she is doing, although this is far from being an effective teaching method. If you have any questions or don't understand, you should definitely ask her for help. If she ridicules you or refuses to answer your questions, try again after class. If she still refuses, document the incident (date, time, what happened) and speak to your guidance counselor.

Share and discuss your country's education system!?

I have studied in the Singapore local secondary school. I would say that the education system is too exam oriented. For instance, in class we'll be going over exam papers because that's gonna prepare the students directly for exams. It is hardly about learning (unless it applies to the exams) nor about encouraging students to be thinking. In English class, we will work on past exam papers rather than do assignments that could deepen our passion for the English language, like writing essays on literature. Most of the teachers like to teach through the books (that is they just refer to the textbook as opposed to sharing with us interesting materials). With this kind of teaching method, it had instill in some students the mindset that they don't have to listen in class since they could go home and refer to the textbook to learn. This show the value of the classroom experience there.

I need a nice and powerful quote that when u are great man for a lady and respect her and she doesnt evaluate?

Your question is not literally correct, and I do not exactly understand the meaning you are trying to describe. Your really should articulate your question better, and provide more explanation of what it is that you are asking. You need to give more meaning to 'great man' and to 'evaluate' and describe what perspective this quote would be expressed from

Was not the divinity of Jesus decided by voting?

Most Christians never bother to research how their silly cult came about. They simply accept fairy stories about talking snakes and expect to be taken seriously.

Catholics why the Catechism rather than the Bible?

I have heard from many Catholics on this board who quote the catechism rather than what the Bible teaches, the Holy Word of God. Why is that? If Jesus said what He did, why do you then use the catechism which is a man-made doctrine as your basis for a religion. Christ alone is your salvation, NOT a religion like Catholism. You are heading towards the "wide gate" where Jesus said "many will say Lord Lord let me in, didn't I do all these works in your name? Didn't I cast out demons, etc., and I will say never knew you, go away you workers of lawlessness" (From Matthew 7) Catholics pray and pray to wrong person, and seem to diss Jesus in the process as He can't save you by His dying on the cross?..sorry to be the one to inform you.

When a guy acts different around you, is he doing it intentionally?

I think they probably want to create good impressions that's all. I know a lot of guys are like that and I think that's pretty dumb. Another reason can be that they don't want to be considered weak or not strong enough in front of females. I prefer guys being themselves than pretending to be who they are not

This is whats called a calling continue on.

Creationists: Why are there no more doubts about evolution within the scientific community?

Not my fault the scientific community has been brainwashed and blinded by the god of this age. to believe such nonsense. everything that is made had a designer and a builder, nothing as awesome as our planet, the solar system, all the many galaxies and even the human body.... none of these happen by pure chance.

If God is all powerful, why can he not rid of all evil?

If he is all powerful, then evil shouldn't exist. It should be in his power to get rid of evil. Does he choose not to get rid of evil, making himself evil? Or can he just not get rid of evil at all, making him not actually all powerful?

Can I avoid these headaches?

This question is for anyone, but especially singers.. I put my all into performances, and belting out powerful and high notes always leaves my head pounding. Is this normal? Is this something serious? Can I avoid this? I know it may seem trivial but the frequency of these headaches have increased dramatically and I am wondering if this is a preset to something bigger to be concerned about. I have never had a migraine, but the pain when I calm down from these shows on a scale from one to ten feels like nine. Serious question, any input would be greatly appreciated.

Sigmund Freud's Theory?

People like Freud and Carl Jung drove their critics crazy, because they wrote of psychology in a scientific fashion. But psychology cannot stand up to the rigors of scientific testing. Science relies on proof, not "empirical reasoning".

What sort of knowledge would athiest require to believe in God?

there is an astounding amount of evidence to suggest that much of the bible was plagerized from sumerian and egyptian and babylonian sources Further there is an astounding amount of evidence which indicates none of the major bible stories actually occurred. Thus--puts your god on the same level as Odin, Zeus, Apollo and other bronze aged myths. So--perhaps there is some supreme being-but will guarantee you it's not the myth of the abrahamics.

If you could add a feature to the next pokemon game what would it be?

Ive been thinking i have some ideas and i want to know if they are any good.First i would make trainer battles in full 3D the pokemon would be in 3D and the moves would look incredible.Second on top of the 3D battles you would be able to move the pokemon around to dodge and make moves powerful.Third i would bring back the pokemon contests and add the battle part like on the shows and in 3D lol.Fourth(kind of lame) when you use an HM the pokemon will pop out of the pokeball for example,for flying the trainer will place a pokeball on the ground then the pokemon will pop out and the trainer will jump on them and fly away.Fifth at the beginning your “best friend“ will travel around the region with you but they wont battle with you unless its a double they will also catch their own pokemon randomly then when you get to the pokemon league they will disappear and become the champion which you will have to battle lol a twist.Sixth there will be certain dates (based on the DS time and date) were a ferry will leave and if you catch the ferry it takes you to islands and certain areas of other regions.Seventh the day before christmas your mother will ask you your favorite starter pokemon and the next day she will give you an egg containing it however the game will be programed so people cant keep changing the time and date to cheat the game.Eighth like TV after you beat the pokemon league there will be an area opened called “_ _“lol which is a battle competion which moves you up in ranks like on TV and all in 3D for amazing play.Ninth when someone tries to do something to the legendry(like all games) the legendary will swoop down and steal your other friend(at the beginning there will be 2 boys and 2 girls,including you, you will pick your gender then your friend and the 2 left over will be friends).Tenth this time there will be FOUR STARTERS:fire,water,grass,and normal or electric (id like your opinions on this).Eleventh wifi trade will be similar to black and white except you can voice chat to explain what you want.comment

Why do Organized Religions try to Teach What They are Not Sure of ?

Read your bible, people. It is the ultimate source for all things. Spiritual health, physical health, emotional health, peace, love, joy, it's all in there. If more people would read their bibles and live their lives according to it's guide lines, the world would be a lot better off. I'm not talking about what catholics believe or baptists or methodists, so on, teach, I'm talking about what the bible teaches, the holy word of God. Get with the program people.

If "God" is so powerful, then can "God" make a boulder that "God" cannot pick up?

If God exists, then it would be physically possible. Think about it. If He gets bored and created boulders out of thin air, and makes Himself tiny, then, at the time, He would not be able to lift said boulder. Assuming that He WANTED to make Himself succeptable to physical laws. It's all up to Him. That omnipotence problem is easy. It gets a little hairy when ones asks it God can make Himself not God, erase His own memory, and things along those lines.

Why do Christians sometimes look down on Christians who question things?

I am someone who asks a lot of questions because I want to know the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, but I have noticed a lot of Christians view that as weakness, confusion, or deception. If you don't study something and are convinced it is really true, then why would you be satisfied with being confident something is true that you have not even looked into it and just taken someone's word for it (like say, a pastor)? I just prefer tested truth rather than confidence in a false doctrine. I think there are scriptures that speak of this. What do you think?

So what are your view on how the universe started (No God Fairy tale stories plz)?

What if the N.W.O is looked at all wrong?

The NWO is inevitable but it might not happen for 20+ years or could happen in 10. But it's not going to be good. We have all the prophecies basically in the Bible to tell about it. It's mostly in Daniel and Revelation, also in the gospels, and Thessalonians, etc. But it won't be a good time. It will lead to more evil than we have ever seen on this earth. The Antichrist will take over and demand that everyone be computerized (or controlled) and they will have to have a mark on their right hand or forehead which the Bible refers to as the mark of the beast. This will happen to all those who are not believers in Christ, and anyone without the mark will not be allowed to buy or sell or trade. Those who refuse to take the mark will undoubtedly have to survive by faith. There certainly will be evil behind the NWO!

Is Muay Thai effective in a street fight?

I wanted to take a martial art that has more powerful techniques than Krav Maga. I took Krav Maga for five years, but I never got the kind of counters or training I need to win a street fight. I'm not satisfied with it because, I was not trained well enough. It was a good introductory to fighting, but wasn't something that would make me a superior fighter or very aggressive.

Evidence civil case can the police be forced to release it?

If I remember correctly, two tapes are made of an interview. If what you are saying is correct, then both copies of the tape must have been altered. Again, if memory serves me right, you are allowed to choose which copy you keep and are given that copy when you leave the station - they must have been quick doctoring both copies! (I am going back 20 years though, so things have probably altered since then).

Don't you find praying for everything a little rude?

I mean, people pray for every little thing. Every. Little. Thing. They expect an all knowing, all powerful deity to take time out of its eternity to help an insignificant speck on the planet's surface with it's petty problems? Any god worth its salt is running a universe here, the balance of existence hangs on the job it does with management, and people are going around asking for small favors, and demanding that it bless this, and bless that day in and day out. Do you bother your boss', boss', boss with "oh, um, the coffee machine is broken in the break room, could you go fix it?" Honestly, people, you can pray until you're knees break, the skin is rubbed off your hands, and you lose your voice, or you can just do it yourself.

Does the government like feeding people because it means more power for them?

I'm speaking of food stamps, which the government has been pushing. Does the government want to be the one feeding you because the threat of withholding food is a powerful incentive?

Have Jehovah's Witnesses "Commercialized" Religious Viewpoints? With a Magazine?

How can people say The Bible is a sound moral doctrine when it includes both moral and immoral verses?

It very plainly says that being gay is an abomination (ok many people still believe this) but it also explicitly condones murder, rape and slavery. One verse even says that a man without testicles or who has had them crushed cannot be granted entrance into heaven? Please take some time to think about objective morality and by all means look up the verses (I'm sorry I can't quote them for you but i have read them) before you comment.

Kant vs Descartes question, please?

So, Kant is a supporter of transcendental idealism. Ok, I would like to know, how is this doctrine (founded by Kant) contrary to substance dualism of Descartes?

Does the American educational system discourage creativity and wisdom and promotes conformity and slavery?

Do you find that the educational system asks you to accept outdated methodology and ideologies and encourages conformity as opposed to originality and talent? I'm taking university courses and I am horrified, as I was horrified in my college and high school and grade school classes... am I the only one?

What is the best methodology or approach to religious studies?

The different methodologies are literary criticism, historiographical, sociological, psychological, philosophical and phenomelogical

I'm looking for this manga..?

I read this manga a long time ago and I forgot what its name was. Well anyway, the story I remember is about how this country is ruled by 12 people with 12 powerful swords. The main character is some guy who has the 13th sword which is the sword of fire. I remember reading the chapter where he beats a guy who had the sword of shadow. If anyone knows what I'm talking about, can you tell me what's the manga's name?

Does it surprise you that cons hate teachers?

It doesn't surprise me at all that liberals would make an absurd, sweeping, juvenile generalization that conservatives ' hate ' teachers

Help me fix this sentence.?

It is estimated that such a method could be utilized as one effective alternative at the present moment of pedestrian network generation standards and methodologies not existing.

Where does the Bible say that you can only love people within your own congregation?

Some people interpret different parts of the bible differently. Going outside of Christianity, look at Muslims. The Koran tells them to kill all who do not follow Islam, but not all of them do it, because morality can conquer any text on paper, no matter how sacred the text.

Unhealthy relationship....help!!!?

I am 18 years old, and I feel strongly attached to a 46 year old guy who I am friends with......I know being with him is unhealthy especially because he is a lowlife who drinks beer and smokes weed all day. But he is the only person I can connect with, because we are so similar personality-wise.... I have so many problems in my life, and know it is important to get away from him and get my life back together so I don't become like him when I get to be 46 years old....but I have such a powerful spiritual bond with him that I can't imagine life without him. He is not related to me, not part of my family, so it concerns me that I love him so much.....how can I move on with my life? Should I be friends with him, but keep my distance so I can get my life back together? Or should I completely move on from him and just stop talking to/hanging out with him forever? HELP????

Do you think "Christians" would still celebrate holidays if they knew their origins?

Well, it's not as if we don't know. I was raised attending Christian schools. In the very early grades, we were taught about the pre-Christian roots of many Christian holidays, such as Christmas, Easter, St. Valentine's Day and more. It would be hard to find a Christian who wasn't aware of these origins. Today, we often celebrate these holidays for different reasons than our Pagan friends, but we do still observe them. There are a few Evangelicals who refuse to celebrate them, but for the most part, they're still on the liturgical calendar.

Is the creationist position intellectually honest?

I've seen hundreds of evolution vs creationist questions on here but it boils down to be asking the intellectual honesty of some of those positions. There are those that teach the creationist viewpoint that take the positions that radiometric decay rates are not constant, no transitional fossils (not arguing whether this meaningful just stating it), various positions and papers the Institute for Creation Research publishes--all attempting to use reason and rational thought to disprove the concept of evolutionary biology. All well and fine--this is part of the scientific method--objections are raised--these can be falsified or not. Having said that the creationist then will not apply the same logical reasoning skills and methodology to a book he claims is the inspired literal word of his deity. If we examine that premise with intellectual honesty-it should be relatively simple to strengthen or weaken the position. The epic of gilgamesh predates the biblical noah story by over a thousand years, the king sargon myth predates the story of moses by over a thousand years, the babylonian creation myth of gods creating men from the clay of the earth predates genesis--we find most of the ten commandments in the egyptian book of the dead--and we find that many of the spectacular bible events have no historical/archeological support. It seems odd that a deity wouldn't write an original book--so the fact that these stories predate the bible and the bible stories sound suspiciously like they were taken from them--at least like the no transitional fossils idea should be suffiecent to make one question not whether there is a god--but whether the book is literal or not literal. However logical reasoning is thrown out the window in this arena--isn't that the epitomy of intellectual dishonesty? Picking and choosing? Serious question. Wouldnt creationists be better off simply saying I don't care is found nor what the explanation is--my blind faith tells me this book is true. The point is--isn't it dishonest to use logic and reason to poke holes in evolutionary biology--but forego using that same logic and reason to evaluate their own bible faith?

When understanding the people who support a law we are taught to "follow the money trail"?

If 10% of the population are gay, that's 10% of any workforce that will potentially then qualify for any spousal benefits offered by employers, and a consequent increase in their costs.

An article by psychologist to prove to u black women r unattractive?

The post, which featured “research” of uncertain methodology by evolutionary psychologist Satoshi Kanazawa. i dont know y people care what he says. its his opinion,whatever.he said black women are least unattractive compared to any other race and black men are the most attractive males.if u look around, all u see if black men being chased by white women. we need some attractive black women. dont say rihanna or beyonce. they are light skin.im talking about a dark beauty, a dusky jewel like iman. tyra banks is too light to be black

Which gemstone is more powerful and costlier ruby or emrald???

Emeralds are more powerful, especially the Chaos Emeralds. They can turn thoughts into power, warp time and space, and give energy to all living things. However, it'll be near impossible to get even one because there are only seven of them in the world, and a hedgehog with super speed whose into jewelry (he needs rings to survive) and an evil robot engineer doctor who harvests animals are always battling each other to get them.

Fellow Christians, can we stop our public school systems from teaching the theory of gravity?

See, when kids are taught about gravity (which is only a doctrine, nothing more), they understand that things fall, right? So that means what kids are more likely to bomb a place because bombs fall due to gravity (of course, that's only what the gravitists think). We need to stop people from teaching our poor, innocent children about gravity, and more about Our Loving Father's eternal love!

Are you thankful to God, if so why?

I think some false preachers out there preach a misconception of giving thanks and of prayer, by the quite evident "health, wealth, and happiness" doctrine. We should all be thankful as believers for one thing only, that God sent His son Jesus Christ to die on a cross so that we could be saved from eternal damnation. Life passes by as a vapor, so asking God to make you wealthy is futile, He would rather have us humble and pure of heart so that we can someday commune with Him in Heaven. I don't know if anyone else gets irked with the televangelists with their 20,000 in attendance and preach the "best life now" doctrine, but it really bothers me that satan has infiltrated the church and continues to steer people away from God through sin on selfishness and the worship of the world, again which is passing away.

What did you all think about the Mexico fan support in "PAISADENA" yesterday?

I thought it was sensational. Our paisanos are taking it back. Without us Paisas the U.S. would not be as powerful as it got in the 90s. But like the saying goes "whatever goes up must come down".

Will a bad economy eventually weaken the almighty and powerful US Military? Americans only?

I understand how much technology we have, so a bad econoy wouldnt even weaken us right? Plus, the economy is recovering right?

What is the shape of an electron, proton, neutron?

I've been browsing the web for an answer and most people give the lame un-backed up answer of they all look like spheres. But then some people say that they are just conceptual ideas, especially the electron. So what is the truth behind this? I've even heard that we've never seen in atom, and some say we have, and some say we have calculated proof that they exist in something like the same way that scientists know other planets outside our solar system exist but we've never seen them. (only similar in analogy but not methodology of the discovery) So what is up with all of this?

Do you accept the notion of creation?

No, of course not. The thinking people of whom I am one, make judgments based upon thought, the religious are required to simply accept without thought or question, and that is exactly what they do.

Do I need a speaker or an amplifier type of thingy if I plan on purchasing an electronic drum kit?

Will it be needed, or can I just plug in my headphones and I will be able to hear everything like that and so on? And about how often (average) will I be forced to change the drum pads if they even need changing. ( I enjoy playing fast and powerful) :) Thank you beforehand. :)

Do you think what country you're from influences your personality and opinions on things?

According to the doctrine of political correctness it doesn't, but personally, I do think it's a factor.

well this was done in Russia and so they had to pay higher prices on goods. lost their national pride. and now they actually have to work.

Why do religious people...?

Why do religious people think that scientists are against them? Don't they realise that scientists are indifferent to them and only looking at measurable evidence? If god was measurable he would be in the body of scientific knowledge. If he were proven he would be debated and accepted, that's how science works. Also, why do religious people keep thinking theories are an inferior concept to static doctrines. Theories are proven by testing and evidence as the best current explanation for something but still leave the door open to future improvements by testing and observation. This mechanism is why science has advanced over time and static doctrines haven't improved since their inception. Your opinions?...

My boss is a pervert...what should i do?

Is there any way that you can plant some sort of "nanny cam" in your office, or his, wherever this behavior takes place? You can also try to record the conversations. Also, document everything he does, date, time, place, if there were any witnesses, etc. Once you have a good amount of proof, you need to take copies of it to the human resources department and report him. If they try to blow you off, let them know that you aren't afraid to get your own lawyer and report him. If you make the information public, he can and will lose his license to practice the law, they are very tough on ethics and lawyers! Also, you need to tell him that you don't like what he's doing, he may take your silence to mean that it's ok or at least that you won't tell, and that's what he's counting on. He gets off on your fear and the power he has to keep you silent, don't let him win this!

Is my Book Concept Solid? Would You Want to Read it?

I liked it until you said it was about pirates. After reading the plot I was less than enthusiastic. It's a good plot, but I was prepped for something in a completely different direction. I don't see how the protagonist is suffering from lack of freedom, it sounds more like he's just going on an adventure at sea and that there are bad guys waiting for him back on land. So, although you're story sounds good, it just wasn't what I was anticipating.

Does the Republican party ask too much of it's members?

They demand that you reject all non-sanctioned forms of media or literature. They demand that you write off the majority percentage of American citizens and cultures as being un-American is some way. They ask you to support corporate freedoms while legislating against individual rights. They force their members to selectively ignore the OMB so they can pretend that Reaganomics is fiscally conservative. Not all, but too many of their members feel embroiled in a culture war against Islam, Mexican immigrants and homosexuals. They are asked to take tele-evangelists speaking tongues seriously. Adults actually taking Palin, Beck and Rush seriously! After being subjected to enough state conditioning they have been convinced that the military industrial complex is American but that social spending is traitorous. That we should imprison citizens for organizing and collective bargaining. They are asked to keep secrets about the Bush doctrine and the 9/11 commission. It's like an abusive relationship between party and members going on here. And I feel for my American brothers and sisters. How can I help relieve their burden?

What simple fact makes it impossible for Jehovah's Witness to prove that 1914 was the invisible presence of?

1914 is the 118th jubeli year, we only get 120, 1967 was the 119th, 2017 is the 120th. see you there :)

Is this the Republican Fairness Doctrine?

Obama signed it...so it is now yours. Until we actually cut trillions in spending we will only get worse..notice I say we...meaning all of us. Services should be cut to coincide with a rebooting of the access restrictions to programs to alleviate waste and fraud. Did you know food stamps are being traded for drugs in every city in America?

If Evolution is really true then why hasn't the theory of evolution evolved?

Just thought I'd ask a stupid question like: If God is all powerful why did it take him 6 days to create the universe?

Under this doctrine, prior to any questioning during custodial investigation, the person must be warned that he has a right to remain silent, that any statement he gives may be used as evidence against him, and that he has the right to the presence of an attorney, either retained or appointed. The defendant may waive effectuation of these rights, provided the waiver is made voluntarily, knowingly, and intelligently.

Does John 2:19-20 help or hurt the doctrine of the physical resurrection?

First of all, do know that John was the last of the Gospels to be written, nearly a century after the death of Jesus. Matthew, Mark, and Luke, however, were likely compiled from first person source material and are considered more historically accurate.

Evolution = ..... Cult?

I wouldnt call it a cult, but the fact that they try to instill evolution in our minds since the first few years of school is pretty weird. It basically has children believing that there was no Adam AS or Hawa and that we evolved from primates, making most of the monotheistic religions seem faulty.

I want a computer that runs two graphics cards in SLI, and a sandy bridge core i7. I'm not really planning to overclock. How powerful should mu PSU be?

How did the cult of the K.K.K.emerge out of Christianity?

How was this cult successfully able to pass as ''Christian'' in the past when it contradicts ever thing the Jesus Christ taught during His life here on earth. If someone is a Christian shouldn't he or she value the life and teachings of Jesus over all other views and doctrines, even other parts of the Bible which go against Him. If Christ is not a man or a prophet but God in Christianity, then shouldn't His words be central in your life and ever other teaching that you have heard should take a secondary position[if you claim to be a Christian]? If true Christianity was not the cause if the K.K.K. and it's brutal violence against humanity then was it politics, corrupted religion, or culture to blame? If culture was apart of the problem, then should we allow the U.S. Southern Culture to continue to exist today?

A question for Biblical literalists who mock the Catholic doctrine?

What evidence is there to support the claim that the writers were trying to be anything other than literalists?

I have a heat meter which records total volume of hot water in cubic meters. How can I calculate the energy?

So if my meter tells me I am using 50 cubic meters per month - how much can the landlord charge me. Is there a way I can calculate the energy in kWh. What would be a good methodology for apportioning these costs?

"Conceptual Issues in Psychology" - substantive philosophical questions such as free will and determinism, consciousness, and the relation between body and mind.

I accidentally turned my file into a magnet?

I work as an Punch press operator in a sheet metal factory, and part of my job has me sanding parts with a metal file. Today I had some down time, so I was cleaning up using a magnet broom. I couldn't figure out how to make the broom let go of the metal scraps (apparently there's a handle somewhere) so I took my trusty file and scraped the pieces off. When I got all the metal off the broom, I realized that my file is now a fairly powerful magnet, and its sticking to everything! It's a pain when I have to get into those tight spaces and the file keeps sticking to the wall. Does anyone know how to get rid of the magnetism?

I'm a coward... How can I tell her...?

I really like this girl and we talk at school a lot but I still fear rejection... I can't come up with any reason to do ask her out... I'm no looker and not athletic... I don't know what to do... I can't just say it... Fear is a powerful emotion... My friends make it sound so easy... It's like everytime I see her... I feel awesome... As she goes I'm left with nothing more than apathy... I'm not sure what to do...

Is man/womankind getting worse, more violent? Or are there more people and media to report about horrors?

How do I reconcile John 11 with this?

Yes, Lazarus died twice. So did all the other people Jesus Christ raised from the dead. As God, He had the power to make exceptions for these specific people. He Himself rose only once, never to die again, and ascended into heaven, body and soul, while still alive. He was not raised from the dead, but rose from the dead by His own power, the only one to ever do so. In so doing He fulfilled His own prophetic word: "Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. (John 10:17-18)

Is a 600 cm2 bike a good choice for a first bike?

What is the difference between a v6 and a v8 engine that have the same horsepower?

okay say you have a 1968 mustang with the small 289 v8 engine that has about 200hp and you have a newer 05-09 model mustang v6 engine which makes about the same power. is one more powerful or better in any way than the other because one has more cylinders? i've just been wondering about this for awhile.

Character names? Help?

I need a name for a boy who's mysterious, hopeful, strong and powerful, people fear him, though they don't know they do. He has jet back hair and dark green eyes, almost black. He's not the tallest person out there, and he's built like a wrestler. Any ideas for names?

Isn't this contridictive to our belief as well as not biblically supported? HELP?

Mormonism does not and never has been in a communion with the Christian family. Protestantism, Orthodoxy, and Catholicism all have ties in Baptism and Matrimony that bring us into a unity, if only loose. My immediate reaction would be to start looking at CAF, Catholic answer forums, and ask questions there under non-catholic religions. Your faithwalk needs to start in a nurturing environment, and there isn't a much better place (except in person with a priest) than there.

For Pentecostal/Apostolic Christian girls only.?

Well, one of the doctrines at my church is that you have to wear skirts when your baptized ( I am about to start baptism class & I do have like 4 jean skirts). I can NEVER find jean skirts up to the knee for casual occasions. Any stores? I'm a size 2, 3, &4 . P.S. I am NOT trying to exclude anyone its just that Pentecostal/Apostolic girls are supposed to wear skirts and they can relate. Also, I live in a place where a lot of stores are near me so please, feel free to list stores even if you think they might not have it somewhere else. Thanks :)

Can you PLEASE help me with these questions?

You do realize that you probably spent as time entering this information as you would have spent looking for the answers?

If the Jewish People Are Israelites (From Iacob) Why Do They Reject The Messiah?

In the first century there 3 different groups of Jews. They all probably claimed to be descendant of Jacob but none had the same belief. Some believed in the idea of Resurrection where as others didn't. They Judeans who didn't believe in Jesus were the Pharisees and Saducees who were hypocrites.

Do True Believers even care if evidence contrary to AGW is suppressed?

With organization like the EPA, CRU, NIWA and a host of others either suppressing evidence against AGW or using unpublished methodology to adjust newer temperatures upward and older temperatures downward, do the True Believers even care about science anymore? They seem to have taken the stance that Anthropogenic Global Warming is a fact and they will make the data fit their belief. Isn't that contradictory to the scientific method?

Why do Americans seem to hate Russians?

From my understanding America refused to help Russia with war damages and of course that made Russia mad- thus the cold war. So it's just us holding grudges for something that happened 60-70 years ago. And it is kind of stereo typical, I have nothing against Russians.

R&S: To all those who oppose world government?

What solutions do you have to overpopulation, the rapidly decreasing nonrenewable and renewable resources, pollution of other countries, and global warming? If the pollution of Asia starts reaching us here, are we just going to invade them? If the world gets too overcrowded, should we just start killing people off? Without a powerful international body regulating and keeping these MAJOR issues in check, how do you expect the human race to survive in the next 200 years? Or do you simply just care about yourself and not the survival of your species?

I suffer from vasomotor rhinitis (chronic nasal inflamamtion) and don't want my usual big conk for my date tomorrow. Steroid sprays take weeks to work properly.

Is the Catholic Trinity the same god as the rest of Mainstream Christianity?

The trinity arises from a misreading of the Bible. There is NO trinity implied at all. Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John are distinct books each with their own perspectives, but mainstream Christians simply harmonized the concepts.

In a business plan seeking venture capital, should you comprehensively document competition?

I think your competition would be of great interest to the venture capital group. I think its a mistake to leave out that kind of information. Frankly, it seems a bit amateurish. Unless there aren't any real competitors in your market segment?

Jehovah's Witnesses: Why does the NWT inconsistently translate la�'ad as "for all time" at Proverbs 29:14?

Hmm. well, I learned the truth by reading the King James and New international bible before I felt comfortable with reading the NWT. NWT is the best translation of the Hebrew and Greek scriptures but you don't need this translation in order to find the truth.

How would you feel if Jehovah's Witnesses came to your house to share a bible based message?

I would welcome them in as I have always done. A true Christian would never be rude or hateful to his brother or sister, whether seen or unseen. The love that we share is what separates us from the world. John 13:34,35. Take care.

Why is Theodore Roosevelt admired by so many conservatives?

I liked his saying that he coined for US defense policy: "Talk softly and carry a big stick."

That's the core of what following Jesus is all about: loving God with all that you are and have and spiritually loving others and yourself.

Wouldnt creationists be better off simply saying I don't care is found nor what the explanation is--my blind faith tells me this book is true. The point is--isn't it dishonest to use logic and reason to poke holes in evolutionary biology--but forego using that same logic and reason to evaluate their own bible faith?

If god is all powerful, is he capable of creating a world without evil?

is he capable of creating beings with free will who have a perfectly good nature, so perfectly good they would never choose nor want evil? we shouldnt need evil to understand good unless god made it that way, shouldnt he just as easily make beings who understand and appreciate good without evil?

When did democracy in its current (limited) form take hold in Britain?

I say limited because a powerful branch of their government is still composed of rich, congenital idiots who apparently inherit their positions; AND the monarchy can still influence issues indirectly...

How many of this generation of Jehovahs Ws pictured in the May 15, 1984 WT are still alive?

If you are waiting for answers from JWs on this one, sit back, have a beer and listen to the crickets, because this is just one those embarassing questions they will avoid.

Soaking fresh cherries in rum...?

I have a question about making cherry bombs.. I am using fresh cherries instead of candied cherries though. I am wondering how "powerful" one would be? Example, the equivelant of a shot? And does using fresh cherries make them weaker than candied?

Does being a "temporary employee" have any effect on the forbidden work doctrine?

I am not asking for legal advice, but for general guidance. In Kansas, if an employee is taking part in forbidden work, but it is in good faith furtherance of his employment, the claim is most likely compensible, but is the compensability of the claim affected at all if the employee is a "temporary employee" who was placed by an employment agency? Would the agency have any liablity? Or is it just a question of whether the work was forbidden and whether the "employee" falls under a forbidden work exception? I can't find any KS statute or cases. Any general guidance would be very helpful. Thank you!

Why wasn't the Russian carbine/shotgun in Black Ops Multiplayer?

The KS-23 is a 4 (6 in america) bore shotgun, WAY more powerful than the 12 bores on Black Ops, so in my opinion it would be way too powerful for Multiplayer and anger many players, so Treyarch left it out.

How can the Catholic Church claim to be the only true church when they do not follow what is in the Holy Bible?

You're looking for a contradiction where there is none. The Catechism says that only the Church is the infallible interpreter of scripture. Paul praises people for reading the scripture. He says nothing of infallibility.

Is William J. Seymour the founder of the Apostolic Pentecostal denomination?

Yes and no. One God is the stater of all movements in His Name. Ok Will Seymour did start a movement ,but I wouldn't say that his beliefs about spiritual gifts was the cornerstone for the Pentecostal movement. I believe their were a few movements combined to create the Pentecostal denomination, and Will's is one of them. I really like researching thee early Pentecostal movement.

Any former Catholics who are studying JW doctrine?

I was just looking for people who are or were Catholic who are or have studied the Jehovah's Witness doctrine. I just started studying with a Jehovah's Witness the last few weeks. I am intrigued by all that I am learning and have proceded to study with an open mind. I do have my reservations as I find that some of their doctrine seems unusual to me. My wife is a Jehovah's Witness and she was really a non-factor in my decision to study. She never asked me to study. If she did, it probably went in one ear and out the other. It truly is a personal decision and I look forward to starting my spiritual journey.

Are we all SATANIST without even knowing?

So if Satan is and was behind EVERYTHING not christian in this world are we all satanists? If Satan is behind false religions, doctrines of demons, philosophies, teachings, ect like the bible says are we all satanist. So christians worship god by reading the bible, listening singing worship music, prayer and glorifying him in word and deed. So all of those who do the same things but in a un christian way is this us worshipping the devil and his ways. The satanic bible and satan in general is about living YOUR life the way you want and that you dont need god. Be your own god.

Why is the Govt lying to us what the real rate of inflation which is near 10%?

It's like the make believe unemployment numbers. Kind of reminds you of the Wizard of OZ, pay no attention to the man behind the curtain

Are mormons ok with other christian music?

If you can contact the 'Bishop' of his local congregation, you can get approval. It used to be that only their hymns could be used in the chapel, I don't know if that is still true.

Christians, what does one do when they are " tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine"?

Many people take the Bible far too literally. They think it is the actual spoken word of God. I disagree with that. God speaks to our very souls but not with words. His spirit speaks to us with feelings. Some people call it a conscience. We get the feeling something is very right or maybe not so right this way. Sure our parents hopefully teach us right from wrong but even without actually knowing we still can feel one way or another. The Bible was written by men putting what God has taught them into words by use of parables and sermons. Not every story in the Bible is an actual event. Many are just lessons to be learned. Sometimes I believe those writers misunderstood what the feelings God gave them or they just put down their own beliefs and that is why there are many contradictions in the Bible. Translation from the original Hebrew or Latin also causes problems. The Bible is a guide only. If you really want to know what God wants you to do - listen to your heart, That is where he lives.

Catholics please answer?

Your so wrong and opinionated that i'll not give you the answers but there they're. So might i suggest that you go over to Catholic answers site and you'll have no problem getting your answers but as for me i'm tired of trying to explain to people like you who are only wanting to argue. I will give you one Bible verse but your kind will deny it's meaning as you would the rest but here it is... John20:21-23..

Laptop or Desktop for incoming sophomore at a college preparatory high school?

Get a desktop. Since you're still in high school, you don't really need a laptop as a college student or business person would. Buy one that will last you until you graduate, and after, then purchase a laptop.

Have you seen this documentary on the evildoers?

No I dont believe in conspiracy theories, yes governments have agendas and are capable of playing machiavellian politics but I dont need to believe some lizard men (this was part of the original NWO conspiracy theory, Muslims use jinns instead lolz) are in fact behind all that.

Why can't 4 strokes get air on a jump?

Why can't they? I know they are a trail riding bike, but i do know that they are pretty powerful. Is it because of the weight? The way the engine is built? Or is it because it doesn't go very fast?

Question about 7th day Adventist theology?

Afraid they don't have much in the way of a correct answer. The correct answer would be Roman Catholic.

Contemporary band suggestions?

my ipod is dominated by classic rock (Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Grateful Dead, Pink Floyd are the big 4). I need some recommendations for some new bands to listen too. I like bands with powerful vocals, clever lyrics, and when the band members themselves are cool that's a big plus.

Why is dropping tax breaks and subsidies for the rich and powerful considered class warfare?

The only people who fared well in that past decade, some phenomenally well are those at the top who not only don't pay their fair share of taxes sometimes get rebates. Those of us who actually work hard day after day haven't seen an increase in wages in 40 years with a few exceptions but overall. Meanwhile every aspect of our lives has increased in cost. I don't know of any poor people directly responsible for the countries stock and housing crash. Why are they being asked to give up basic needs in life to afford the money needed to make up the deficit?

Existence = that which consists of either matter or energy?

No, existence is not only what consists of matter or energy. If this is meant to be an argument against God's existence, you are question-begging.

Would res judicata be an appropriate defense to....?

an appeal of a denial of an application to proceed in forma pauperis on an action seeking to garnish wages if another application to proceed IFP regarding the same issue (garnishment) was filed and subsequently denied as well? Would a change in financial circumstances negate the use of that doctrine?

Please rate my updated Yugioh dragon deck?

If muslims are so sick of being seen negatively, why wont they do something about it?

ive heard muslims over and over say that theyre tired people spreading lies about them and misunderstanding their religion, but what r we misunderstanding or lying about? 1st they state theyre peaceful, but then we see their leaders proclaim war, muslims supporting it and muslims executing the attacks. am i ,missing something? i turn on my tv and theres guy saying he's muslim, he kills a bunch of people, then another muslim pops up saying the 1st guy was a holy soldier or something and then i see the leaders of muslim countries praising the murders of these "non-muslims". if something like this would happen in any other kind of group anywhere, that particular group would put a stop to it themselves. but not muslims. they seem to prefer to get mad at the victims' families for stating the obvious: "they claimed to be peaceful, but then started killing every1". every other group of people in the world would put a stop to it, but not muslims. i dont get it. r they the 1s who r actually misinformed? is it some kind cultural thing where its ok to lie, kill, get pissed off at every1 whos not cool with it and then accuse them of intolorance? or is it a strange combination of fear and anger? that last 1 is the only 1 that makes any sense to me. maybe most of them disagree with the killings, but r too afraid (or selfish) to put a stop to it. and anger towards the victims is a convenient way to vent and show submission to the extremists. if your muslim, dont hate me if im misunderstanding something. im trying to understand u the best i can by trying to make sense of your ACTIONS. i dont care about doctrines or empty words. to me personally, actions speak louder than words. if im wrong, then please explain y u havent done anything about it for over 1,500 years. if u arent muslim plz let me know your observations and your views.
