    What are you listening to right now? (24)

    One of the best unrequited love songs, or if not about that, about wanting to be more than a face in the crowds. The way the vocals and melodies express those feelings is brilliant. It's also a very good electronic song, generally.

    Leonard Nimoy is dead at 83

    This is very sad news. I will be praying for those that survive Nimoy in his family, and his friends, including the rest of the Star Trek cast members still alive now. I've been a fan of Star Trek for at least ten years, if not slightly longer. With people like Leonard Nimoy, I am not sure about...

    Russell Moore, Rick Warren to Join ‘Pope Francis’ With Muslims, Buddhists for Interfa

    I also believe that interfaith gatherings are wrong, for the reasons that Woodpecker mentioned. I do not think positively of Russell Moore, Rick Warren, or Pope Francis. I disagree with their perspectives of Christianity, which I believe to represent departures from the scriptures.

    Prayers For My Exam and Essay

    I want prayer support. At this point, and in the final hours before an examination is to take place, I am intimidated by my own inefficiency. I am thinking that there may have been ways I could have better handled studying for this midterm exam. I also have an essay due for another class that...

    Is it ever a waste of time to pray for someone?

    Is it ever a waste of time to pray for someone? Is there a point in which we should move on, and focus our prayers for others, instead? I have recently been troubled by a notion that efforts in praying for some people are fruitless. I believe that Christians can and should pray for various...

    What's your relationship deal breaker?

    I understand completely. Just because I stated that I may find these things tolerable, does not mean that I in fact will! Like I mentioned, if music is such an important part of one's life, then some common ground in musical tastes is nearly always a requirement for maintaining a stable...

    Your age limits

    Although I may meet somebody special that does not meet the criteria, I have lately adopted the police of allowing myself to date and to possibly marry somebody within a range of being five years older, or five years younger than I am. More specifically, I think three years young, and three...

    What's your relationship deal breaker?

    I agree with you on everything, although I may be able to tolerate number eight, sometimes. Positivity is good, although it can go extremely far, to the point of delusions. Not every matter is a positive one. However, if someone tries to keep positive out of habit, attempting to keep away from...

    What's your relationship deal breaker?

    He sounds like he was a nice guy, and had other traits that you found desirable. However, you are opposed to marriage, then? Why? Since you two are apparently both atheists, I couldn't exactly say that you would have been unequally yoked, although I urge you to consider otherwise. What caused...

    Which denomination fits you best?

    I've got Assemblies of God churches as my result. They seem to have everything in common with my Christian beliefs, based on the quiz. I used to go to one while growing up, although we switched to a similar, yet different denomination church (Evangelical Covenant Church), which I presently...

    Does Palestine have any right to any land in the Middle-East?

    The American Revolution primarily concerned people of Christian beliefs, as well far less conventional Deists, Agnostics, and even Atheists, although others were officially tolerated by the state. The early United States was still mostly a Christian country for all but official purposes, until...

    Papacy applauds LGBT progress

    The large number of Christians you write about, have been persuaded by the prevalence of the pro-homosexuality agenda itself to accept it. People have increasingly accepted it since the last decade, and even prior, and far more people than previously. Many call it progress, but it is also...

    Does Palestine have any right to any land in the Middle-East?

    On a person-by-person basis, perhaps. I especially believe that Israel should regard Arabic Christians and those of other origins well, and with the ability to maintain private property. I cannot trust Muslims enough for every one of them in Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza to have equality. Not...

    Does Palestine have any right to any land in the Middle-East?

    If you have no religious beliefs, I can understand why you think the way you do. It shuts out completely the notion of a religious legitimacy to a country's existence. However, as I am of the faith of Jesus Christ, I believe the way I do regarding Israel's legitimacy. God justifies the existence...

    if americans like israel so much why don't we give them a new homeland in texas?

    Anti-Jewish hatred will follow the Jewish people wherever they may reside, whether in Israel or other countries. You mention an important point. Exactly, Israel belongs to Jews. They are also protecting themselves from those that would want that nation destroyed, a natural reaction that...

    Jews admit to destroying white race

    Although I support the nation of Israel and the Jewish people, not everyone has good intentions, just as I maintain the same for people from the United States or other nations. I don't understand everything this person believes, but I am against the mass importation of refugees and massive...

    Does Palestine have any right to any land in the Middle-East?

    Although I have no power to convince them, I would urge the nations of Jordan and Egypt to accept the Arabs of the West Bank and Gaza as their own. Ethnically, Arabs from Gaza are essentially the same as the nearby Egyptians, and the West Bank Arabs are mostly of the same stock as the Arabs of...

    Why is American Politics so interesting?

    As an American citizen, I believe that the political events of other nations are very interesting, even largely more interesting than the events of my own land. I believe that the United States has been deteriorating since decades ago, if not since around a century ago. The European Union is one...

    don't impose sanctions on israel because israel isn't a war criminal.

    I think the poll is confusing, so I am not ready to answer for that. However, Israel should not receive sanctions. The only party deserving of sanctions is the government of Gaza, and by extension, anybody that has been found to have voted Hamas into power. Israel is defending itself, despite...

    Thousands rally in Boston against importing illegals into state

    Thunder Peel, you are right. It is easier to support something one is quite distant from, to begin with. It seems so humane, yet many of the illegal immigrants, if not most, are likely to commit a variety of other offenses, besides their initial act of trespassing through the border.
