  • Naah, I don't think cheerleading is a sport. Sure it requires a level of athleticism, but so does doing 1,000 jumping jacks. Yet I haven't heard anyone ever call jumping jacks a "sport". For an athletic activity to be a "sport" in the true sense …
  • But why stop at the dancing, SMS? I'd even go so far as to say that had Herod not been king, he would not have executed John the Baptist. If he was pleased by his daughter's dirty dancing, then he probably sinned. But I hink the greater sin was h…
  • I didn't realize that cheerleading is a sport, lol. God bless!
  • Thanks and God bless you, Banoub!
  • What is the definition of "apostle"?
  • [quote author=Defender! link=board=1;threadid=352;start=0#msg4182 date=1087844429] But I think it's intresting if you say "La Illah ila Allah AlThalooth El Akdas, Alab wal Ebn wal Roh El Kodos" \ [/quote] But please keep in mind that I'm not an Ar…
  • "Ordination"...you're going to be a priest?
  • [quote author=Wasim link=board=1;threadid=325;start=15#msg4156 date=1087792755] But see NC the reason John was executed was because of Herodias' daughter dancing i know that you see the dancing as not the sin here but think of this what if she had n…
  • Hmmm, do you think that it's inappropriate for me to say? I'm not a native Arabic speaker, so I don't know if it's correct.
  • [quote author=SMS link=board=1;threadid=344;start=60#msg4149 date=1087783555] i understood it fully... i just dont agree with it i ask that you take a look at the "proof of the bible" thread... maybe thatll clear up the translation confusion a bit..…
  • [quote author=SMS link=board=1;threadid=325;start=15#msg4148 date=1087782691] you know, the bible may be the greatest book ever written! but that doesnt mean ur gonna find things stated bluntly ur gonna have to read between the lines buddy... thats …
  • Thanks!! Well Avenger, I can assure you that it's for purely informational purposes. ;D God bless!
  • Can anyone give me Biblical citations that state that dancing is a sin? The story about John the Baptist's head is not good enough, because it does not explicitly state that dancing is a sin in itself. God bless!
  • [quote author=Michael_Thoma link=board=1;threadid=325;start=15#msg4122 date=1087714381] personally, i don't find big bellied belly dancers attractive... but people's tastes differ ;D [/quote] I suppose they do, since I "lust" for wobbly beer bellie…

  • [quote author=SMS link=board=1;threadid=344;start=60#msg4117 date=1087704372] NC... i just read ur posts and im assuming your obviously someone thats old enough to get into a serious relationship... so i think it's safe to say that you're not going …
  • [quote author=Mark423 link=board=1;threadid=329;start=0#msg3420 date=1086921935] As is written; the man and the woman become one body, so the man should treat the woman with the same love he would treat himself. [/quote] I would add that Jesus co…
  • OK Wasim! :'(
  • The Commission has jurisdiction over radio, television, wire, satellite and cable. As far as I know, movie theaters fall outside their regulatory power. And even if they were under FCC jurisdiction, the First Amendment of our Constitution would mo…
  • [quote author=Peter Gergis link=board=1;threadid=344;start=60#msg4062 date=1087589501] Hey NC, I'm not so sure that you get what lust is all about. Lust does not have to be extreme, it can be as simple as a physical attraction. However, it is jus…
  • [quote author=Peter Gergis link=board=1;threadid=344;start=45#msg4045 date=1087536630] NC, I'm kinda confused about your understanding of a "crush". You are trying to say that a crush has nothing to do with lust, which is mainly based on physical…
  • OK Defender. :)
  • OK, one at a time. ;) [quote author=Peter Gergis link=board=1;threadid=344;start=30#msg4008 date=1087512966] Hey NC, I am going to go back to the original issue at hand. What is a crush? I think a crush, is a special feeling the a person has for…
  • egyprincess: Those verses refer specifically to lust as a sin, and I don't dispute this. However, I don't think they apply here because there's a difference between a mere youthful crush and full blown lust. Paulh: The verse that you cite appl…
  • Mark: Yes, there's an "extra feeling" that goes along with a crush. Please cite the relevant verse in the Bible that states clearly that the "extra feeling" is a sin and/or it inevitably causes sin. God bless!
  • So that's what happened to my post! I wanted to find out who on this forum is "CopticAngel" on Islam.com, but my message disappeared. I don't know what other medium I could have presented this in, since I was trying to address all the people here …

  • Well Peter, I hear what you're saying bro. Certainly, there are Biblical prohibitions against acting on lust. And arguably, many teens don't have the self-control to resist their lustful urges. But I know that it's feasible, even during the teen …
  • Peter: Yeah I know what you mean, but I think doing the dating thing the right way during the youthful years is good practice in temptation management. We all have our urges, but as Christians we should learn how to deal with them in a good way as…
  • How does one try not to think about a crush when we're supposed to love all human beings? Also, I don't agree that it's wrong to go out, as long as we control ourselves. For those who disagree, I request appropriate supporting Biblical citations. …
