20Anglican school phobia
by Frazzled UBM inafter a long and frustrating houe search in london we finally found a place that fitted all our requirements and my wife seemed happy with and i was successful in the bidding process and had our offer accepted even though it wasn't the highest beacuse we can exchange contracts quickly and now we have lawyers working on exchanging contracts soon.
so everything is going swimmingly and then my wife demands that we go and look at a house being offered by the same agent we used to make the offer on the house we are buying.
i am like wtf, if we ask the agent to see another property they will tell the vendors for the place we are buying and they will revoke acceptance of our offer and we will be back to square one.

I went to bible study last night and our study conductor mentioned that he new of an Anglican school that had a buddist teacher that was very dogmatic about his beliefs. He would engage the class by challenging them that if they are christian they are on the wrong track. Maybe your wife should be more concerned with the buddists.

The Anglican ministers here are evanagelical and they are very good at challenging you as a christian. they are also very accepting of new people we got a great impression the first time my family attended two years ago and there is very few times we have missed services their. One problem I had with their doctrine is the Calvinist doctrine of predestination but don't take it to seriously if you don't understand at first their are many facets to it just as we can't know how God created the universe we can't know exactly how or why he saves some of us and not others. Some things we have to leave with god and trust in him.
Jgnat I thought most churches had responsive readings I used to be an SDA and they have them at the back of the hymnal but they aren't used very much. Ive also heard it said most hymns are originally Anglican and adopted by other churches and most SDA hymns are Anglican

What do Baptists believe?
by quellycatface ini'm thinking about going to church again because i'm really interested in god (today)!!.
sometimes i'm so confused and feel like there is no god, other days i do and want to try and get to know him.. i guess i'm scared because of all the bs that went on in the kh.. there is a local baptist church near me that seems nice.
i'm in the uk.

Gday quellycatface,
Just to tell you about our Anglican church in Canberra Australia. Anglican churches can be different in many ways to other Anglican churches We attend an Anglican church just down the road that is very evangelical half way through the service we have coffee and are able to chat with our friends or someone new that may walk in and there is coffee and morning tea after the service. The priests just wear ordinary clothes and are very approachable. The songs are very upbeat and many have a newer refreshing and modern versions with a band [no organ] . Be aware that traditional hymns can be very slow and dull.
The priests don't mind if baby is baptised or just dedicated and baptised as an adult.
The only traditional liturgy used is the Apostals creed, the communion service and some of the prayers.

Can being gay live in harmony with being a christian?
by digderidoo ini have looked at the thread about gay marriages in california and thought about asking this question there, but instead of hi-jacking that one i thought i would ask it here.
there seems to be quite a few gay people on this site and i wonder how many class themselves as christian?
if so, can being gay live in harmony with being a christian?.

The SDA church is very conservative but this documentry tells of three gay couples in their struggle with there faith and their homosexuality. One gay man was an SDA minister now has a partner. The younger gay man on the movie has a brother that is an SDA minister and his father is a conference president. The lesbian couple are finding they are accepted in the SDA church they attend and have as the witnesses may term priviliges. The movie can be bought online for about 10 bucks.
What a name for a movie SEVENTH GAY ADVENTISTS

0ne million crowns is only about $170,000 so they aren't millionares yet. most people in western countries are millionares anyway a house by itself is close to a million then add other investments on and you're pretty much there. I was reading an artical saying there should be a new definitionof what a milionare is the suggestion being one who has an income on one million per year.
The Norwegians do have a great electricity grid powered 100% by hydro electricity with no polution
