    Please help me gain clarity: Shgould I let my neighbor know his wife is cheating?

    be very very careful about this - this could be considered to be blackmail or spying or malicious threats. You do not want her getting the police on your back!!! and people have said far too many times that it is none of your business - it is and isn't. You don't know this couple very well and...

    "Firey" relationships or cosy straight forward relationships? - Moved from E&M

    I think I'd always choose fiery over cosy because I'm quite a fiery person and I need to have intense relationships, not just with boyfriends, but with friends too - i don't tend to do things half-way. Sometimes a cosy relationship suits people better though and there ain't nothing wrong with...

    Is it right to neuter or castrate cats or dogs?

    its not wrong i don't think because if you don't neuter an animal then they get randy and you find yourself with a lot of babies to cope with (or give someone else's animal lots of babies!) - if you then can't look after them or find them homes then you and the animals are worse off than...

    Forcing belief down another's throat.

    i understand the feeling of having immorality forced on you by society because, as one example, there are a lot of sexual images around which make it very hard for some to keep clean thoughts maybe..... but the best response to that is to try to ignore it and set a better example. Setting a...

    Forcing belief down another's throat.

    I always think its better to listen before speaking, to respect the others opinion and beliefs. If we listen to another and take in what they have to say, trying hard to understand them then they are far more likely to respect us in what we have to say. Heck, you might even decide they're right...

    Is it 'morally' wrong to overdiscuss homosexuality?

    the other thing that gets me is that the homosexual-straight spectrum is a SPECTRUM not a black and white concept - hence those who call themselves bi.... there are very few people in this world who are 100% straight with no fluctuations. Many will claim to be totally straight and thats fine...

    Is it 'morally' wrong to overdiscuss homosexuality?

    sorry i didn't want to create another thread about homosexuality really... maybe I misworded it. i was wanting people to talk about how we can break out of these habits of discussing the same tiny things over and over when there are more important things to deal with. Why are Christians so...

    Is swearing really that vulgar?

    It shouldn't really be the words but how they are used. A word that isn't offensive at all (like b*stard) in some contexts, when intended to offend is a swear word. I think its the way people use them that matters.... to a point... the f' word (which i use far more than I should) is referring...

    Is it 'morally' wrong to overdiscuss homosexuality?

    sorry just making a point! has anyone counted the number of homosexuality type threads on here recently? has anyone noticed that i could count the number of verses in the bible talking about homosexuality on my fingers? has anyone considered the numbers of verses on other topics such as...

    Is it morally wrong to dislike creationists and fundamentalists?

    i don't think its wrong to dislike people - what is wring is to hate people and allow that to eat away at you and prevent you from seeing who they really are or how you could help them. Its definitely wrong to hate a 'type' of person just as a principle.... its fair enough to hate the way...

    Do parents teach you how to lie?

    hmm I don't think its just from parents that kids learn to lie though it must be part of the matter: if parents lie to their kids then that is a bad example (and I think a lot do - even if it seems harmless, if kids pick up that their parents lie to them then I reckon its pretty damaging), if...

    Televangelism, do you endorse it?

    stan1980 - what sessions? i think a lot of christians give 10% of their income to their church and i'm pretty sure the bible tells us to. I suppose a good church will use the money for community projects, charities and to keep the church going. Some pastors do make a hell of a lot of money from...

    Viagra

    sorry i meant viagra is addictive, not sex.... though i think most things are addictive in one way or another, just some things are chemically addictive while others aren't....

    Viagra

    its a funny one because of course it isn't sinful when used in the right way - we either accept medical solutions for problems, or we don't.... except when we feel the methods providing the medication are unethical. so do use it for better sex and it can be addictive then ruin the sex life of...

    Can God accept those of other religions (or none) into heaven?

    yeah I agree - God's grace is ultimate (so they say) so shouldn't it be within the reach of us all? maybe if someone refuses to accept God, God can't actually accept them into heaven.... but then what? hell for all eternity? seems like a bit much considering we are weak, fallible beings...
