I'm sure many of you know about Michael Moore, the overweight, baseball hat wearing guy who makes all those heavily opinionated "documentary" movies. I have now watched a few of these movies after a friend of mine told me that "Farenheit 911" would change my perspective on what happened during 9/11. I was really insulted by this guy. He really expects me to believe it was all the fault of George Bush an the Republican party, and not years of built up Middle-Eastern aggression? The line of events that lead up to 9/11 began way before Bush Senior was left in office, and probably has it's initial roots in religious discrimination and the support given to Isreal. Granted, I think Bush is an idiot, but I think Moore is a jerk if he expects me to believe all that.
In "Bowling for Columbine", the same jerk tried to point out how the Columbine incident happened, and specifically sites numerous problems in Michigan's gun laws while doing so. Columbine is in Colorado.

What is the basis (scriptural or otherwise) of selecting THAT particular version as "The Word of God" and discounting all others?

I ask, because on another question (http://answers.yahoo.com/question/?qid=20070523112726AAIgyWR), I had a responder say that that the NIV is NOT the Word of God, and I should only quote the King James Version.

I know that some people believe this. I want to know why.

The entire point of being a kid is to learn to be an adult.
That's why we show them how to tie their shoes and cook macaroni form the box. Why do so many people vacuum pack their kids from everything. I understand that kids don't need to know certain things before they mature but if you keep them blind from the world you are setting them up for failure.

My boyfriend (26) has shooting pains in his left abdomen, just a couple of inches below his ribs, for about an hour after we have sex. It's only when things get kind of out of hand, last a long time (think 60 minutes+), and he doesn't have an orgasm. I thought it might have been a digestive coincidence, but it happens regardless of what - or whether or not - he's eaten.

Anyone else have this? Could it be muscle strain? Swallowing air? I'd offer more info on his past but I'm the only one that he's ever been with....

Did God Creat Everything?

A German university professor challenged his students with this question:

Did God create everything that exists? "

A student bravely replied "Yes, he did!"

"God created everything?" the professor asked.

"Yes sir." the student replied.

The professor answered, "If God created everything, then God created evil since evil exists, and according to the principal that our works define who we are, then God is evil."
The professor was quite pleased with himself and boasted to the students that he had proven once more that the Christian faith was a myth.

Another student raised his hand and said, "Can I ask you a question professor?"

"Of course," replied the professor.

The student stood up and asked, "Professor does cold exist?"

The professor replied "Of course it exists. Have you never been cold?"

The students snickered at the young man's question.

This is what i said, and people said i'm "sick". I want you to tell me if you think im sick by saying this. Okay, i was watching a movie and in this movie, the villan happened to put a small dog in the microwave. Naturally, i was disgusted and weirded out by the villan doing that, but i also wondered what would actually happen to the dog. So i asked a question on here, saying "What would happen if you put a small dog in the microwave for 1 second?" Keep in mind that i had NO INTENTION WHATSOEVER OF DOING THIS, but the movie i saw that this particular event happened in sparked all natural human curiosity in me, how does that make me sick? Do you think that makes me sick? Explain. I would NEVER ACTUALLY DO THAT, i just wondered what would happen to the dog, how does that make me sick?!

My mother-in-law is Catholic and says that everyone has a set time to die. When someone dies, she says, "It was his/her time to go". If someone commits suicide or gets killed, was it their time to go? It doesn't seem like something that would be preordained to me.

If you didn't know, there are no common names like John and Linda in Chinese. All the names usually mean great things. It's kind of like getting a tattoo that means something to you. Every Chinese American person that has a Chinese name has been able to tell me what their names mean. Michaels and Johns have not been able to tell me what their names mean.
