Where in the Bible does it talk about inflation and uping the percentage of tithes? Jesus didn't belong to a church so how did they come up with giving to the church? Jesus said to give to the poor, not to Him. I just think the Romans were a bunch of controlling men who wanted power and prestige and everyone's money. Do you truly believe that God wants ALL people to give 15% of their earning? There is a ton of poverty in this world and I don't think God wants the people who are earning $10/week to feed their families to take what they have away from them to give to a church. What are your thoughts?

Zunis [rightfully] believe all creatures crawled out of a hole in the ground. But because of insidious Christian control of the electronic media, and because scientists refuse to accept the evidence, Zunis have been unable to spread the truth to other people of the planet.

When will people finally wake up to the lessons of Corn Maiden? Mud Man? War Gods?

According to the American Heritage Dictionary (4th Edition, 2006), a fable is defined as;

A usually short narrative making an edifying or cautionary point and often employing as characters animals that speak and act like humans.

According to the bible, both a donkey (Num 22:28) and a snake (Gen 3:1) are said to speak. Therefore, by definition, the bible is nothing but fable.

Why would you live your life based in what is, by definition, fable? We don't live our lives based on the Wizard of Oz, even though a lion is said to speak. We don't live our lives based on Bugs Bunny, even though a rabbit is said to speak.

What is the difference between the Wizard of Oz, Bugs Bunny and the bible, which would cause you to live your life based on fable, wherein animals are said to speak? Do you not know that snakes can't speak, since they lack vocal chords?

I fail to understand how any rational person could live their life based on something that is defined as fable.

She recently got kicked out of her girlfriends place when her friend moved, is living in a trailer that the safety inspector said she shouldn't be living in, and just crashed her car. She comes over to our house after work when she can't get a ride to the trailer but has been slowly moving in her clothes! What can I do? I dont want her living with me because she's an alcoholic and becomes mentally abusive, and just wont listen to reason. My husband doesn't want her around either because she usually says such harsh things that she puts him to tears.

Do you think the way we are treated would change, for the better or worse? Would we get equal rights? What would the Church think of it?

These are just a bunch of hypothetical questions, you can pick which ones you like to answer. Thanks for answering!

Have a simple flat tax rate and everybody pays the same. But put about 100 or 200 little boxes to check about what you want your taxes to pay for. Fire protection - 5%, police - 10%, highways - 10%, national security - 15%, border patrol - 2%, welfare - .1%, bridge grants in alaska - 0%, aid to Darfur - 0%. Just check your boxes until 100% and that's where your dollars go instead of funding the spotted gecko extinction on a deserted Motu in the south Pacific. And I vote to remove troops from Germany, Japan, Korea, Kovovo, and anywhere else. But as long as we are in Iraq, keep bombing for a while and give the Marines a month off with free beer.

I went to Iraq in '04 - '05 and when I came back I can admit that I had slight PTSD. Jumping when people slammed doors and when cars backfired. But my parents seem to think I still have it. The only "action" I saw was an IED blowing up 2 vehicles in front of me. Nobody was wounded or killed.
