I say that religion and sport mix. I know that in my sporting life i mix reliogion. I pray before every game and competion and i give credit to God for telling me do well and being able to play sports.

also athletes show there religion even though they are in the spot light and that is alright becasue it is what they belive in. i feel like they should be a loud to express their religon because it is not hurting anybody and evey things is fine aslong as they are not premoting people to join or being crazy and OD about it.

i think that music is the way of life. i know i could not live without music. there is always a song that fits my mood and what i am going though. So right now my song is What Doesnt Kill You  by Kelly Clarkson, it just makes me smile

i would say that Islam is a peaceful religion over all. Sure there are some not so peaceful parts of the Qur'an but there are also some nice parts. Yes Islam had a bad start but i belive that happened because it was founded by one person and he havd to fight for what he belived in. Islam is peace and most of the people that follow it carry out its belifs in a peaceful way.

Islam and America could be great if everybody was open minded. Also i belive that it is harder for Muslim women in the US. First they were the head coverings and the makes a noticeable "difference" between other womena and religions. Next in the US it is easier for women to get jobs in higher places but it kind of clashes with the Islam rules.

i feel like it is the parents job to introduce religion to their children. Religion is need somewhere in everybodys life, it doesnt have to be the main thing that they follow but it shiuld be in the back of your mind. Im not sayin that religion is the only that people need in their lives, btu it would be nice to know that they are out there and that they heelp some people. People also need to you common rules of life and how to be a good person and how to get somewhere in life. I feel that religion lets people look up to something and give higher morals and something to belive in.. So parents so take that step to give there child the open mindness to have religion in their lives.

So in class we were talking about Egoism and Altruism. Egoism is when you think about yourself first and Altruism in when you think about somebody eles first. I belive that you should be act for yourself before somebody else beause you always have to prorect yourself you cant help somebody eles if you are not 100%. for example if you are in a car crash you have to make sure that you are good before you can help the other people that were in the crash. i belive that Egoism isnt selfish it is in slef interest and slef interest is the way we live.

Play On and Lessons Learned by Carrie Underwood are songs they i love listening to right now. They are inspiring. These songs are about moving on with your life when bad things happen and dont let life get you down.

I feel like music  is everything in like i can get you through bad times, help you get ready to party, to express your self in a new way, I love music

Does God make people do bad things?

I feel like if you feel that God makes all of your choices and God can do no wrong then nothing can be bad. I feel that if you say that God told you then it is a good  thing even if it is not right. Personally i feel that Nothing you do is bad and you do everything for a reson. Also i feel that everything has a end meaning and has to deal with they way your life turns out. If God "tells" you to cheat on a test and you get a bad grade that was just so you can do something better with your life. i belive that God does everything for a reason and everything he does is good

I belive that people do not do good things just to be a good person. i think that everybody has the thought of what they will get out of it, people are slefish. For example people give to charity because they think karma will help them later,they could go to heaven, they want to get rid of old things they have.

i have a problem with charities. First i feel that you have to pick who you are going to help, you can not help everybody. Also i feel that the money for the charity does not help the person, it only helps short term problems not long term. there should be a program where the money goes to helping long term problems and helping the people get on there feet.

I was thinking about forgiveness and what i deals with. Why cant forgiveness be easy. Does it make you weak or a lesser person to forgive people that hurt you? When you are in a relationship with somebody how it make it harder or easier to forgive? Can you forgive and forget or is it that you forget and dont forget? Does every hurt full things stay in your mind?

I am a really forgiving person and i think that is going to end up hurting me. I think that i give to many chances and i take things for what they are and dont get upset about it, but then they are always in my mond becasue i havent dealt with them. I feel that i can forgive somebody for anything, i always let people slide with things. but on the other hand i dont feel that i forgive i just move on and forget about it. I dont know maybe i should think about things more and focus on really forgiving
