    Do you think God grants favor to certain ppl to be liked?

    Seriously. Ppl don't react to me very well sometimes. I think there are some things I'm doing to influence that but I feel like sometimes no matter how hard I try it doesn't work.Like when I tell a joke or try to be funny in some way, people just look at me. I don't mean to sound pitiful but I...

    A Boy the Bullies Love to Beat Up, Repeatedly

    I think you're right about kids learning these things from their parents. But yeah kids do gossip/bully online now. That's one of the things they're doing to Billy - someone started a Facebook page about him, a really mean one.

    THIS WAS e-MAILED TO ME... ...

    (Peacebewithyou;40231) Several things that in email are outright lies. For one, Obama was NOT sworn in using the Koran. Look it up on snopes.com - that email is bogus.http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/muslim.asp (Wakka;40235) It's still too early to pin point who the A/C is. ITA with both.

    A Boy the Bullies Love to Beat Up, Repeatedly

    Can we pray for this kid? Whatever God puts on your heart to pray. And, yes, for the bullies too. Grrr...http://www.nytimes.com/2008/03/24/us/24lan...779a&ei=5087%0A

    What do I do when everything seems to be going wrong?

    Not griping just wondering why does everything seem to be going wrong? I have relatively few friends, I'm separated, I don't really have a relationship with my parents (and don't want one), I hate my job...I can't even lose weight (been trying)! I'm very depressed and hate my life. Can't think...

    I don't think what Jeremiah Wright said was so bad

    Truthfully, like I said, I never noticed this issue w/Oprah. But that may be b/c I'd agree with her (if I'm understanding what you're saying correctly). The fact is there's still a lot of racism out there. Oprah has obviously overcome a lot to be as successful as she is. So she probably feels...

    I don't think what Jeremiah Wright said was so bad

    Arniem-Never heard the air steward account before...fascinating. As for Oprah, I agree she used to seem like she was Christian but now she's New Age fuzzy. The Tiger story upsets. That's internalized racism IMO. I understand his need to acknowledge his entre heritage. But he really sounds like...

    I don't think what Jeremiah Wright said was so bad

    Two-Me thinks that's the answer.Swearing in the pulpit, while wrong, isn't what the controversy is about. And I don't get the insinuation that he's a false prophet.

    I don't think what Jeremiah Wright said was so bad

    How could his words be any worse? They could be untrue. But they weren't.

    Is meditation OK as a Christian?

    (Mikey;41430) I don't think the meditation you are doing is the same meditation Paul is speaking of. The one you seem to be talking about can open your mind to evil spirits. The meditation of the bible means to ponder, wonder, basicly just think about Gods word. It doesn't mean all this "empty...

    I don't think what Jeremiah Wright said was so bad

    I'm sorry but his (JW's) statements are accurate. America doesn't want to hear or be reminded of the ugly truth. Can anyone deny the factual accuracy of what he said? No. It's not America's racist history that seems to bother people; it's that they don't want to be reminded of it. Consider...

    Is meditation OK as a Christian?

    My therapist rec'd it but I'm leery.

    I don't think what Jeremiah Wright said was so bad

    Sen. Barack Obama's pastor says blacks should not sing "God Bless America" but "God damn America." The Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Obama's pastor for the last 20 years at the Trinity United Church of Christ on Chicago's south side, has a long history of what even Obama's campaign aides concede is...

    Is It A Mortal Sin To Fall In Love With A Priest?

    I don't even believe in the concept of "mortal sin." I believe that's a Catholic idea, not really a biblical one. Sin is sin. Some sins have greater consequences on Earth but not necessarily in the spiritual realm.

    What hppnd to personal responsibility?

    (David161099;40553) I think people just love pointing fingers and making threads about other people's personal responsibility.I remember our lord saying: "Judge not, that ye be not judged." (Matthew 7:1) He also said, "Thou shalt not commit adultery."A crime was committed (possibly several) and...
