    Is Lack of Belief Moral, Immoral, or Maybe Amoral?

    It would depend on how strongly I disagreed with it. Changing my lifestyle I could do, but if things are meant to be taken literally and I'd have to like hurt someone or some thing I would never be okay with that. I know your average muslim doesn't go around stoning people lol I just don't know...

    Is Lack of Belief Moral, Immoral, or Maybe Amoral?

    I would try, honestly I don't know enough about Islam to say for sure one way or the other.

    Is Lack of Belief Moral, Immoral, or Maybe Amoral?

    If I was confronted with indisputable proof then I wouldn't just turn away from it and refuse to believe it, I'm humble enough to admit when I'm wrong. At the end of everything I want to be close to God, that's all that matters.

    Dreaded Vacation

    It sounds like they aren't getting enough energy out. Have you thought about setting up a pool in the yard? You could get a good inflatable one for like $100..you'll have no problem getting your toddler to nap then lol! If that's too much money any water toys could work like a slip and slide or...

    Who got your Saved?? POLL

    I think that's the best way to explain what I think about it too. God reveals himself to us, but you need to believe in him and be ready to accept him.

    Is Sex Sinful in Committed Relationship

    Everything else happened in the right way..we dated for a few years, got married, had a baby 10 months later, etc etc. We both feel like it (almost) all happened according to God's plan, like we were meant to fall in love young and grow together. If I had waited then I could say it happened...

    Why is it a sin to be in an interracial relationship?

    I'm in an interracial relationship..my husband, son and I have been in and out of various churches of different denominations all across the country and no one has ever even hinted to us that they thought our relationship was wrong. The only exception was his family, but that stemmed from racism...

    Am I being too prideful?

    I love that book! If you weren't brought up that way it might be tough at first but it's very motivating and inspiring.

    Hey =)

    I have a Baptist church, a Lutheran church, Methodist church, and a Catholic church all within less than a mile from me. Plus a few others I'm not sure what denomination they are yet. It's great having so many choices so close to me now. I was going to check out each church, going to one a...

    Hey =)

    Thank you for explaining that to me! So how does that work, people take turns confessing? Wouldn't that take a long time to get to everyone? Sorry I've never been to a service like that before. I guess my biggest fear with confession is people looking at me in a different way..I just don't want...

    Hey =)

    I'm not sure to be honest. I like somewhat charismatic churches, I believe in spiritual gifts but not speaking in tongues and stuff. I don't think I'm looking for anything fundamental, I don't take every word in the bible literally which from my understanding is one of their core beliefs? I do...

    Is Sex Sinful in Committed Relationship

    If you want to have sex then why not work on getting your own place together and getting married? I used to not think it was a big deal but there's a good chance you'll regret it later on, there's a dignity and pride you'll have about yourself if you stay true to your convictions and do the...

    Thorn in My Side

    When my husband and I first started working on things I put bible quotes and parts of sermons about marriage around the house so we could both see them. I put this near my vanity area where I go every morning and night; "It would be better for a man to be exposed to the harsh heat of the sun...

    Thorn in My Side

    For us, if I need my husband's help with something I will specify how I would like it done..however I also tell him thank you and say things like "yay! Now that this is done I can do this, this and this!" I just show him appreciation. I think you can want things done in a certain way and tell...
