Don't get the wrong idea . . .


Hi. Thanks for your help. My question involves one extra step but shouldn't take more than 10 or 15 minutes to answer. Thank you for taking the time.

When you hear that someone belongs to the Church of Satan, what associations do you have or opinions do you form of this person? What do you base these opinions and associations on? Based on what you know, do you understand Satan as necessarily evil or as a negative force? If so, why is that? Do you think that Satanism is significantly different from Christianity? If so, in what major ways?

After responding to those questions, will you please visit this web site and then return here to answer two more questions. Thank you. http://www.satanicchurch.com/content/9-sins.aspx

Now that you've looked at or read the nine Satanic sins, have you changed your ideas about Satanism at all? Is there anything you've read that makes Satanism look attractive or at least a little less scary?

Thank you for your comments!

Why do so many males, young and old, desert their families? What influences do they run into? Do you consider family desertion to be a problem in our society? Have you or anyone you know of been given an explanation? Any ideas for what we could do about this problem?

Do you think couples should live together before they get married? What are the advantages and disadvantages? Do you think that living together beforehand might make the marrige less special? If a couple lives together for two or three years and gets along together, should they get married at all? Why or why not?

Why do bad things happen to good people?


Why does God allow evil? Why does He permit natural disasters and tragedies that only He could prevent? Do you believe that God is both all-knowing and all-powerful? If so, He must know what suffering lays ahead (such as children being trapped under debris after an earthquake or tsunamis sucking babies out of their mothers' arms), and He could stop it if He chose, so why doesn't He?

Thanks for your thoughts! Sara Waldack

Jamell's question: War On Drugs

Do you think the war on drugs is working? Or has it become a war against America's citizens? Do you think the drug problem in this country is gettting out of control? Can you think of anything that could be done about it?

Thanks for your thoughts.
