My Dreams Changed

lloydbelleza @lloydbelleza (1227) • Philippines 3 Jul 08

I have dreamed to be filthy rich, to be famous, to have a multi-national company and to be able to become one of the richest people of the world. Now, I dream of something simpler. I no longer want to be filthy rich. I want to...

gwamster A life that serves God? My understanding od religion is that if you believe in God, you will submit to his dreams and plans for you life. So by saying that your dream has changed and now you want something else contradicts this because it is selfish and self...

I Think South Africa's Xenophobic Attacks are Great!

Henjin @Henjin (81) • South Africa 24 May 08

This is my opinion as it gets rid of poor people and is opening up jobs, thereby lowering the unemployment rate. What do you think?

Not welcome if you aren't a christian?? You're kidding me right?

bubbles89 @bubbles89 (122) • United States 25 Jun 08

I've read a few discussions and even over heard some conversations about the church and christians. I'm a born again christian and I wanted every one to know that being a christian is about reflecting the character of God. God...

gwamster It makes me sad to read that you still call yourself a Christian because such hypocritical actions don't stop there. If Christians are hypocrites and 'sinful' like all other humans, ie no different to others, then what is meant by 'a new life with Jesus' or...

Me & the Baptist Preacher

zigzagbuddha @zigzagbuddha (4601) • United States 19 Nov 07

Tomorrow night there is a Baptist preacher coming to my house to try to convert me to Christianity, well, he said "discuss Christianity" but I know what he meant. I said he could come because I like him and he gave me some wood,...

gwamster I got the wrong idea from your post. You said you liked the pastor and he gave you wood. Am I the only one who thought this was a slightly amusing statement?

If God can perform miracles, why doesn't He heal amputees?

djhybrid @djhybrid (94) 28 Jun 08

I just got done watching a youtube video that asked this question and I just couldn't for the life of me think of an answer. Perhaps one of the intelligent Christians here can help me.

gwamster I have some assuptions. I assume you believe in the power of prayer? - Yes? I assume you believe God can do anything? - Yes? I assume that whether you pray or not, God will do his will? - Yes? So, if everyone in the whole world prayed for all the...

>>>Have you seen Him?<<<

TheCarter @TheCarter (369) • United States 29 Jun 08

I can recall one incident in prayer when I was a young Christian about 19 when I was in prayer in my room. I had all he lights out and was just doing a little worship in my room with my eyes closed and hands raised. Suddenly,...

gwamster You seem very quick to say this was a 'Christian experience', why? Many other people call this a 'life experience' because lights exist in our world. It is sad that we jump to conclusions so quickly when faced with something we cannot explain right away....

gwamster If you want to be taken seriously, say things that are based on good reasoning, this allows many different people the chance to understand you. If you speak out of intuition and feelings, it is hard for people to appreciate what you say because they have their...

Too many cooks spoil the broth

janardhan04 @janardhan04 (117) • India 16 Jun 08

when too many work together on a project the results is inferrior .Too many opinions can leave you confused.Always consult just one or two people for advice

2 responses

gwamster I disagree. The more knowledge you gain, the better your decision will be because it is based on more information. Robert Mugabe consulted his Minister of 'Defense' and the Minister of Propanganda as to what to do about the people showing support for the...

confusion over the person you are going to marry?

gabbarsingh @gabbarsingh (95) • India 24 Jun 08

Have you ever come across someone who was in love with a person and got engaged to that person, who suddenly feels that this is person he or she or not meant to be with? How does one cope up with such a situation?

confusion

2 responses

gwamster You can marry whoever you wish. The onus is on both parties to be honest with each other and see the situation clearly because the feeling of love luctuates and you will go through hard times together. If both parties no longer feel the bond they once...

Arab Israeli conflict

oferkeler @oferkeler (2) • Cyprus 29 Jun 08

gwamster I agree with you. Now ask yourself, where does Israel gets it's military equipment? Where do the Palestinians get their support? The conflict is part of a greater conflict between more powerful nations. They get smaller countries to do their work and support...

Has Africa gone mad?

Riette @Zorrogirl (1502) • South Africa 28 Jun 08

How can people be so stupid? Idiot Mugabe holding a one-man election. Its retarded. the sickest thing about this is that most African leaders support this madness. what are all of you thinking about this?

gwamster Your assumption that African leaders are supporting the madness is incorrect. The Zambian president is openly opposing Mugabe and Jacob Zuma, president of the ANC in South Africa, has expressed concern. It's not that most African leaders are support it, but...
