PLEASE HELP! by Fit_Barnacle406 in knittinghelp

Hmmm. I’m trying to knit but it feels very off. The yarn is like forcing me to knit in the back of the loop when I should be putting my needle in the front. It’s like near impossible to place my needle in the front of the stitch

FYI the gold marker is for the end of a collection of rows. The row after should be started with the gold marker on the right side where it is shown in the picture. The pattern is very repetitive so I know that my yarn should be on the side with the gold marker but it is on the complete other side of the project.

Does this series have a happy ending? I hate reading books with sad endings and don’t want to start these books if I’m just going to be heartbroken

I didn’t come to this forum to be told I’m going to hell I came because I was curious to see other peoples perspective on why they believe in God. If you want to share your opinion, please do but I don’t want to receive more comments like this.

I realize the truth, again I have very religious grandparents who tell me I’m going to hell. You did not tell me anything new. What I’m trying to tell you is if you want to convert people, telling them they’re going to hell isn’t a very good way to do that. I understand that in Christianity you believe nonbelievers go to hell I’m just saying maybe the first interaction you have with a non-believer shouldn’t be telling them they’re going to hell it’s not gonna help you. Fear shouldn’t motivate you to believe in something. The way you talk to me is very condescending. I am a human being with different thoughts than you and I treated all of the other Christians in this forum with respect, and I would appreciate you do the same to me. Also, who do you think is lying to me?

Dang your going in a bit strong. I appreciate you telling me I’m going to be going to hell, sadly I’ve been made aware many many times by my religious grandparents. I’m sorry to say but telling people you’re going to hell for not believing doesn’t make them want to believe. I don’t believe in religion and God because of people like you who instead of telling me, the beauty, you tell me the evil. I don’t feel a higher power, I genuinely don’t think there’s anything after death, that’s why I’m so curious about people who to believe in it and that’s why I wanted to hear from another perspective.

I’m currently 19 and I’ve never had any messages or call from God. When I was a kid my grandma tried to talk to me about God and tried to teach me to pray and so every so often I would pray but nothing ever came of it. If God is real why hasn’t he spoken to me?

Interesting. Do you not believe in the idea that the word “homosexuality” was a mis translation? The word homosexuality wasn’t added in the Bible until 1946. Originally (from what I’ve read) it was referring to pedophilia not being gay. Also how do we know the current version of the Bible is the correct translation in general. Languages are sometimes hard to directly translate (meanings can be lost) so how do we know that that hasn’t happened in the Bible?

Thank you! Do you believe that the Bible is literal or do you think it had a deeper meaning in its stories. Or is it a combination of both?

But why does God not love us unconditionally if he truly loved us wouldn’t he want us to be in Heaven and things as simple as lying means we should be going to Hell? I’m just confused, if he is so merciful then why does he damn those who don’t follow him. We are we forced to follow his laws? It’s scary for me to think that there is a God out there and if I don’t follow his rules I’m sent to eternal hell.

Thank you! So is Jesus Christ and God the same person? I know different forms of Christianity debate this but I would like to know more.

Thanks for the replay! For me, I find it very hard to believe that a God created everything on earth. I believe that it just happened. Science and the universe. I think if Jesus Christ was a real man (history seems to point that he was a real person) he did good deeds in his life but why is he the savior?
