Politics, News & Issues > Constitutional & Contract Law Should a woman have the right to choose abortion?Smallicon
22 of 313

I have yet to figure out why the law will charge someone who kills a woman and her unborn child with two counts of murder, yet if the woman herself chooses to kill the child within her it is considered her right. Or better yet, a woman who is pregnant can be arrested for endangerment of a child if she is using drugs or abusin... More..

Religion & Spirituality > Heaven, Hell & Afterlife Can you get to heaven by being good?Smallicon
11 of 138

If a person could get to heaven by being good, then Jesus went through beatings and crucification for nothing.The whole reason Jesus was born is because it is not possible for us to be good -good according to God's standard not ours. The reason we have this ongoing debate of whether or not you can get to heaven by being "good... More..

Society & Lifestyle > African & Middle Eastern Culture Do you think it's fair to profile Arabs based on their last name and ethnicity?
1 of 12

Profiling has absolutely nothing to do with racism. It is a necessary tool used by law enforcement to not only catch terrorist, but aide in stopping future attacks, foreign and domestic.In a country such as America were we have a vastly diverse population, some of whom have a goal of bringing chaos and destruction to the Amer...

Religion & Spirituality > Christianity (Other) The difference between being religious and being Christian
15 of 127

Religion says you have to attend a certain church, follow certain rules, live a life good enough to please God in order to get to heaven. Being a Christian means you are a follower of Jesus Christ, you realize nothing you do in and of yourself will ever make you good enough to attain heaven. It is only through the cross and t...

Years ago when my four children were young we lived in the mountains of Northern California. We lived in a 40+ year old cabin my then husband's grandfather had built.We moved into the cabin because my husband was a drug addict and we could find no other place to live we could afford. When we first moved to Omo Ranch, I though... More..

Religion & Spirituality > Christian Beliefs & Culture Marriage: Believers and non believers
1 of 6

From personal experience I can say a believer should not marry a non believer, especially if you think by doing so you can change the person you are marrying.There is a distinct reason the Lord told his people not to marry outside their faith. For Israel it was because He knew by doing so they would end up disobeying the comm... More..

Religion & Spirituality > Christian Beliefs & Culture Spiritual warfare as part of human lives
3 of 14

Wouldn't it be nice if things could always go smoothly in life? That once you become a Christian you never had another struggle or problem? Unfortunately that is not reality, at least not until Christ's return.We sometimes forget what the Lord said about putting us through fire to refine us and help us grow up spiritually. Ju... More..

Society & Lifestyle > Personal Morals & Values Lessons people can learn from making mistakes
2 of 7

The biggest lesson people can learn from making mistakes is we all do make mistakes. Making mistakes is part of being a human being. It's OK to make mistakes because through them we, hopefully, learn and grow as people. Sometimes people will continue to make the same mistakes over and over, but only because they have not lear...

Society & Lifestyle > Gender Issues Should we approve of same sex marriage?
50 of 145

I guess if you are not a Christian it would be easy to say "sure why not". However, if you have a belief in God then to say sure goes against what God says. Marriage is defined as one Man and one Woman being united as one. It has always been defined as this, it has not been until recent years when the whole gay rights issue b... More..

Religion & Spirituality > Religion & Spirituality (Other) Should one's faith influence a citizen's vote?Smallicon
113 of 308

Why is this question even asked? Everyone votes within their belief system. Someone who sees nothing wrong with say, abortion will vote for the candidate who shares their "belief" on the subject. Belief is just another word for faith when it comes down to it.Everyone is influenced how they cast their vote on the basis of thei... More..
