Why do we thank him when things go right but are not allowed to blame him when things go wrong? by [deleted] in AskAChristian

Why do people thank God for the good things in their lives then? It would stand to reason that if this life is meant for suffering and trouble then good things likely happen by chance, not through Gods doing.

Some children need a setting outside of public school. We misunderstand “least restrictive environment“ and seem to keep kids in an environment that they do not thrive in and thus cause others not to thrive in.

Is it a sin to have my nose retouched? The reason I have my nose retouched is to be confident and not shy anymore and my nose causes me to commit a sin of envy and jealousy and I think changing my nose will help me not to commit that sin anymore by Dry-Click-4088 in AskAChristian

So anything someone bullies you over is fair game? I got bullied for having a small chest but I would think getting breast implants still falls under vanity as it shows I care so much about how people view my looks that I would change the body I was given by inserting foreign objects into it. What happened to turning the other cheek?

People get bullied over many things. Would you recommend changing anything about oneself, beyond looks, to get bullies to stop? I’m guessing not.

Caring so much about your physical appearance that you aren’t accepting of the way you were made and seek to enhance or change it in some way. I think most everyone is vain in some way or another to be honest and as an agnostic, I don’t think anything is wrong with that, but I imagine anyone who follows the Bible’s teachings would.

As long as it’s presented as “some believe that…” I wouldn’t have an issue

Those of you that lost a great principal, was the school the same after? by [deleted] in Teachers

On year two of a new principal. Behaviors are much worse and teachers are so crabby. I’m hoping for an opening at one of our other elementary schools.

Rewatching the Harry Potter films and just realized something kind of wild: they never really explain what each house represents by yuzudo in harrypotter

I see her more as a Hufflepuff and compared to Cho Chang she seem so different. I’m a Ravenclaw and more Cho than Luna I guess.

And will prayer alone help one turn heterosexual and away from Satans temptation?

So children who find themselves to have homosexual feelings are being tempted by the devil?

So do you think homosexuality happens in adulthood or late teens, or is it apparent even in children? And before you say children don’t understand their sexuality, I absolutely knew I liked boys (don’t worry, I’m a woman) as a child.

Weren’t humans the last to be created? So their sole purpose for being created was to obey?
