I agree that our daughter should be forced to eat or go to bed hungry. I was a very picky child to and Im still a picky eater to a large degree. But I will at least try things. There are things that my mom...

She refuses to eat what is put in front of her. Instead she will only eat either fast food or boxed meals. We try to make her eat, but she refuses, puts her hands in front of her mouth and will not try anything. She is 3 1/2. We try to tell her that if she...

You know..those people who are guilty of the very things they loudly and proudly "abhor, condemn and revile"?<br /><br />To Rosie G. Well, I agree to a point. None of us are perfect. There is just no such thing as it down here. The only perfect person was Jesus. I am a pastor. If I had waited until I was perfect to become a pastor, I would have never became one. Likewise, I make mistakes and I mess up. But... Fri, 07 Sep 2007 09:46:06 -0700 http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/1332010 http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/1322070 Do hypocrites bother you? You know..those people who are guilty of the very things they loudly and proudly "abhor, condemn and revile"?<br /><br />This is an interesting question. A Hypocite is one who pretends to have beliefs or values, but really does not. A true hypoctrite then I would certainly not like. That sort of person will be dealt with by God. But on the other hand, arent we all a little hypocritical to some extint? We all...

The best solution is to not lend or borrow. But this is very hard to do in our society. We love to spend what we dont have. If you borrow, repay it as quickly as possible. If you lend , dont expect it back.

But like other destructive behaviours, there are some that may get away with it for a while. There are some that may just seem to get away with it for a while.

Though my advice would be the same either way. Dont do it. It will be fun, but there are consequences to having sex so young. The fun only last for a little while. I know you have heard it before and it sounds corny, but its true. The effects of...

I would not even let my daughter date at that age. Girls of this age that are having sex usually do so because they did not get enough love from the daddy. If daddies spent good quality time and loved their daughters more, far fewer, if any, would...

Its just a matter of how long it will take. Things like porn follow patterns of destruction. Smoking, Drinking, Drugs, Porn. All these things have but one puupose.

Do you believe this is correct? Why or why not?<br /><br />I think I will add a bit more to my answer. If the dad is spending good quality time with his daughter, the daughter will be more likely not to be looking for sex or even a relationship at this age. Little girls need the love of their daddies. If they dont get it, they will go looking for...

Do you believe this is correct? Why or why not?<br /><br />13 is way too young. I doubt that Id even let my daughter date until she is older than this. Reason? At 13, its our job as parents to protect our children, not let them to dumb things that will permanantly scar or even ruin their lives. At 13, they are not old enough or mature enough to...

It leaves the viewer craving more and more in order to achieve the same &quot;sexual high.&quot; It easily enslaves people to their own cravings and opens the door to other forms of evil, like anger, abuse,...

Of course not. Even if you take the Bible out of the picture, same sex couples are not even logical. I dont know if any other species that does this? I think that should tell us something.

Or who is more important? If you could only keep your kids or your husband, who would you pick?<br /><br />The way it should be is that the spouse comes first then the child. But I feel like in my house that my wife often puts my daughter first. I could not answer the 2nd half of your question.

Towards the end of the holiday we spoke on MSN, but everything seemed unfortable, and now we're back at school, we barely talk. What went wrong?<br /><br />In a teenagers life, 6 1/2 weeks without communication might as well be an eternity. She may have thought that you were not interested and moved on to someone else.

Some believe in a limited Free Will, which means that we do have a free Will but God can intervene and limit it when and if He chooses. Pre-destination, which says that your...

If so do you think you'll be accepted by God.<br /><br />This is actually a very interesting question. Every generation has thought that they were in the end times. The fact is though they they have all been correct. We have been in the end times ever since Jesus left the bulding. To God, time has little if any significance. He is outside of what we...

While its unknown when he was really born, its more likely that he was actually born in a different season altogether, perhaps summer or fall. Most of the holidays that we celebrate as Christian now were actually pagan in origin. They were adopted and...

You can know someome well enough to fall in love after 1 month or 1 year . Though I would expect it not to take quite a year. But its possible. I think it depends on the person, but for me, Id want time to be sure. But at the same time,...

I am certainly not proud of them, but I have always been quite gassy. I wonder if there is something in the body chemistry of a guy...

I only write questions and respond to those questions that have meaning to me. Much of the time, I dont even give points....

The Bible says that all of creation screams out the existance of God, so all are without excuse. Does this mean that no one can use the excuse that they did not hear about God?

A 2nd man is kind to all, lives a life of charity and generosity, but because he lives in a small village in Africa he never hears of Jesus. Who goes to Heaven?<br /><br />Magenta, Ime very curious to see you ask such a question. Our previous bantering led me to belive that you did not believe in anything that had to do with God or heaven.

A 2nd man is kind to all, lives a life of charity and generosity, but because he lives in a small village in Africa he never hears of Jesus. Who goes to Heaven?<br /><br />The easy and short answer to this is God decides who does and does not go to heaven. He is the ultimate judge on things like this. Thank God Im not, because its a tough call. As a human, I would not want to extend forgiveness to the one that killed the little girls. But there are several...

Those that do not believe I would expect to say no. Those that believe in God, like me, I would expect to say yes. From the perspecitive of my beliefs, of couse it should be allowed in school.

Do you believe this is true?<br /><br />Some believe that once you are saved, you are saved no matter what. It can be proven in scripture. But so can the opposite view, which is that you can loose your salvation. I belive that both are true, though I cannot explain how. Anyone else have any ideas, thoughts, or suggestions on this?

Yes, I believe so. But if God knows your future before he makes you, and He knows that there are problems with you (Character flaws etc...) why wouldnt He just fix em before your born?

Especially if the child has shown signs of having a strong belief in and conviction for Christ?<br /><br />I bet there are interesting conversations in your house!

I did not know that this was a pattern and to this extint. If you are constantly finding that men you are with are cheating on you with less attractive women, then I would sit up and take notice.

And why would they do it if they are in fact in love with someone?<br /><br />To annoymous Then it might just be a case of his wanting to have sex. Men think a lot different than women. Women are more emotional creatures by design and need emotion in order for the sex act to really work for them. To a man, the sex act is more mechanical, seperate from emotion. Or at...

Men often use the excuse that they need to play the field to make sure that some woman is the right one. This is just an excuse that men use because they either dont want to commit, cant commit, or just want to play around with other women. My main...

And why would they do it if they are in fact in love with someone?<br /><br />I dont want to sound like I am defending this behaviour, because Im not. There is no excuse for cheating. However, is is quite possible for a man to cheat and still love his wife. The reason is quite simple. Men are visual creatures and can get easily tempted by a good looking woman. I dont...

They seem to have in their minds; I will cross that bridge when I come to it.&quot; When they start to actaully come to it, they come to the...

So here it is. As we get older and closer to death, we often come to a realization that we dont want to just pass away into nothingness as science and non-Christians say we will.

Its not accecptable for a rep like this to be rude. On the other hand, everyone has a bad day now and then. But that does not mean that they have a right to be rude. But rudeness can be subjective.

Or does it mean that they really don't know the meaning of a relationship? Does your opinion change if it's a teenager between 14-16?<br /><br />Yes, my opinion would probably change some if It was a teenager I was refeering to. But not that much. I think that teeagers have a least a little more leaway when it comes to going through relationships. They are learning how. Adults on the other hand should know better. If an adult has had a...

My question is what do they say when praying? DO the pray directly to buddah or just his teachings?<br /><br />Well, my main question would be why? Why do you want to convert from Catholism to Buddahism? Any prayers to Buddah are not going to do you any good because Buddah is dead. Prayers to him, even when alive did no good. Buddah was just a man. There is no dispute on that, even to a buddahist....

You did not say how she hit you. If it was a spanking, it is not abuse. You need to be more specifin in how she hit you and how hard. Does she have a history of violence with you and others. Or are you simply overacting because you are angry?

What kind of marriage was this? Mail order? According to God, there is no accecptable reason for divorse other than infedeility. Even If I belived in anulments, which I dont, I think 1 1/2 months after the marriage could well be too late.
