What would you define as bad or evil?
evil comes from the heart. doing something bad is something you know is wrong.

and evil person will not care and will show no mercy. (ie would have walked in that store and capped both people and took what he wanted)

Not always. everyone has a breaking point.

When people have nothing left to lose, they lose it.

Sometimes life gets to bad for people they will do things they normally would not.
but what causes them to break? certainly not anything godly...

i can only imagine it is the sinful flesh...which serves satan...

I believe aliens respond poorly to the name of Christ and a person of faith standing up to them because they're actually demons in a pseudo-scientifically acceptable guise for our postmodern world.
that is what a lot of christians who have studied UFO abductions believe...i don't know what to think though...

Of course UFOs exist. A UFO is literally as its name would indicate an unknown flying object, surely unknown objects in the sky exist?

To the notion of aliens, It is not too much to presume in our vast universe some form of life exists, maybe minute or primitive, but on probability I would say aliens are a likelyhood.
Scripture does not speak of aliens, but repeatedly warns of deceptions, lying signs and wonders.

There's no reason to trust anything we see floating around in the sky.

We go by faith, not by sight.

What would you do. if you lost everything right now. And it seemed everywhere you went you got no help. what would you do? roll over and die? or would you steal a little food to stay alive?

Well I HAVE lost everything! I lost my home, my husband, my marriage, my health, my job, my family as i knew it, my money, my dignity and nearly my life, and all i had was JESUS left to keep me going! I had only Him to supply me a place to live my food for me and my teenage son!

During all this time, i never once lied, cheated or thought of stealing to survive! NOT ONCE! As i prayed every second of every day just to give me strength and get me buy. And you know what? HE DID!!!

He brought me to a home, performed miracles upon miracles for me to strengthen me and lift my faith for increased renewal. he brought me to a church where i could get fed the Word and i had fellowship and other brothers and sisters to befriend me.
He prayed with me, stayed with me, counseled me, loved me, secured me and gave me peace. Its there that i grew the most at that time when i thought i had nothing, yet i had the most for i had the closest relationship with my Savior that i ever had and it grew every day. I would never take any of it back as i am so thankful for that time!
I Praise my Lord every day for His walk with me this for sticking with me and helping me at my worse time and showing Himself to me!
So if anyone ever asks me what would you do, i say i would rather die, as i have already been near death many times before and dieing is not so bad. Living is so much harder. And living properly is harder still. So because i have strong faith, I choose to serve my Lord.. I chose Him yesterday, i choose him today, and i will choose Him tomorrow too if it comes... if not. So be it. Its all good, for I get to go home and see my Saviors face.... I cant see anything bad about that choice... I am happy about it...:D

I know many of us don't agree with the words the woman said. I could sit here and ponder it all day long and pick it apart on how unscriptual her comments were in the video... BUT..

1,. No one was harmed
2. God HAD to have been watching over her
3. Her courage is admirable
4. That is what I call "10 foot tall and bulletproof" That was kinda awesome
5. Can we send her to Washington DC and have here tell Obama to get out of the White House?

a petty thief is just going to use a gun to intimidate and get what they want, they have no intention of pulling the trigger, they might not even have a gun loaded, it might have even been a replica gun. It is a dangerous ploy to stand up against someone waving a gun in your face, but obviously if the person wielding it has no intention of pulling trigger they are just going to back off as they are now out of options, which is what happened here.
