Open Question: What should I do next year, my senior year in high school?
I am 16 right now and I will be 17 next year. I have a few options for next year but I don’t know which on to pick. I could go to this place called the career center which is a class u can take that is specific in a career and taking this class takes place of 3 high school credits and you are at the career center half of your day (and the other half of the day you go to high school). I would be taking commercial art at the career center, I want to go to college for art of some kind too.

Or I could just take all 6 classes at school. If I do this these are the classes I would be taking:
Algebra 2
Chemistry
Art
(These are the 3 classes I would replace with the career center because these are the 3 classes that I really don’t need to take to graduate but I really feel like I should take algebra 2 and chemistry since I plan to go to college)
Personal finance
Government
English

So I don’t know which one to choose. I really want to go to the career center but at the same time I feel like taking math and science is very important. Thanks!!
See I already have all of my math and science credits so…

Thank you for your answers.

Open Question: What is the Christian way to deal with someone’s wery un-Christian behavior?
Basically my sister’s fiance is the perfect example of why christianity has such a bad reputation. He claims to have been involved in 4 different churches/ministries until he relocated by moving in with us. He and my sister go to church every sunday. You would think someone with this level of involvement would live a great example, but you wouldn’t beieve some of the hatred this guy spews. If he comes in contact with someone who’s beliefs differ, if only by degree, he makes personal attacks against them, and makes it a point to bring them down. Also his perception of some things in the bible just don’t seem realistic. He thinks the Christ’s desciples, among others in the bible, were uneducated and/or slow-minded basicly because they didn’t live in the 21th century. The opposite couldn’t be more true. Christ specifically picked the apostles because of their knowledge and talents. He picked a doctor, who must have had some form of education, even though it may have been based in pre-AD/CE era knowledge. He picked a tax guy, considering the incomes of the numerous people in this group, and also the methods by which they acquired their finances, they would have needed him. HE also picked up a couple fishermen; they were probably needed on those long travels, especialy when shore wasn’t far.

Back to this guy though. HE says very hateful things. He has said that all homo’s should be collected and left on an uninhabited island. What is that going to solve? If we rousded up everybody with sin in their lives, then there wouldn’t be anybody left. That’s just an example of some of the things he says. I think a part of the reason ho says such things is because he knows i disagree with him on such subjects.

I had a problem with my mother once, and he threw himself in the middle of it, when it was none of his business. He sent me an email saying he hates me and that i am niether friend nor family to him among other things, attacking my spirituality and me in general. I pulled biblical references to show that such behavior is un-Christian, such as 1 John 4:20. “If a man says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who doesn’t love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?”. He responded by saying i’m taking those verses lightly. How can i be? That’s what it says. How else can you take it?

So to get to the point. How can someone who acts like that go to church every sunday and not be convicted? Or how can someone who goes to church every sunday act like that, when they should know better. How do i deal with him?

I know we should not compare ourselves before God, but i feel i must point out before the people answering, that i don’t go to church because i haven’t found one that preaches what i believe to be sound doctrine yet. I read my bible, and watch and listen to lectures online (gotta love youtube) and study on my own. I stopped going to church a year ago, because of people like my sister’s fiancee, who i felt perverted the ministry. This is not a permanent situation for me. MY personal beliefs: I have a “c’est la vie’” attitude. Spread peace and love in the name of Yah most high. HE created us to have fellowship with him, and by condemning others, even if there behavior is sinful, only serves as a stumbling block for them, keeping them from having a relationship with our God. When they can look at your life and think of how you are differnt and start to inquire, that is how you have a ministry and an influence on someone.
the01animal, i’m sorry he is not a JW but an AB, that would have helped us both out if it did happen to be the same guy though!
