"And it came to pass, that at midnight the LORD smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sat on his throne unto the firstborn of the captive that [was] in the dungeon; and all the firstborn of cattle." Exodus 12:29-30

the bible said that god knows everything, so he knows that the Pharaoh will choose not to release the slaves, so, he knows he will kill all that children, this god choose to kill the children instead the Pharaoh, there is no excuse for this, plus if this god is all powerful he had hundreds of choices, (HUNDREDS) … but he choose to kill the babes.

"the great plan", kill children with no mercy, if such a god can not create something less evil it does not worth a penny

Is it like in the USA where they are fighting hard for recognition as a distinct group and their right to marry? Are there gay marriages in European countries?

"2.106": Whatever communications We abrogate or cause to be forgotten, We bring one better than it or like it. Do you not know that Allah has power over all things?

Abrogate: to annul or repeal a law in order to pass legislation that contradicts prior law

So, all you hav eto say is: "Dont you know Allah is able to do all things?" when you are caught in a contradiction .

NICE !

When I state something I personally believe in, they responses I get from certain people who do not agree get very offended, why?

I don't see the western religion followers/spiritualists do this.

Why the arrogance?

Well in my opinion I think chaos is the grandest thing that can happen. I enjoy watching people go through their lives trying to make things orderly and then having to watch it fall apart. It's also the reason that any authority can not be respected in my opinion. We need chaos to evolve and grow, and also to just have fun watching it in action. I also believe that to get anything done, you have to find your superior and destroy him to take his place. Now I don't mean kill, but ruining a career works just fine. If your not striving to become the highest being there is, I think your wasting your life and energy. And I also believe I am God. To myself at least. I believe that everybody is there own god, but most will never find this out because they are to busy following and worshipping others. There is only one law I follow and thats my own. So do any of these charaistics of mine make me evil in the eyes of you overly religious types.

Maybe it's cuz I'm new to this whole question/answer thing, but it seems that most of us are here to have fun and find others like us, but there also seems to be a lot of folks out there who act as though we're some kind of plagued freaks simply because we express our sexuality? Why come to this catagory if you don't want to hear what we have to say?

The Christian Church has a very long and well-known history of murdering anyone that didn't agree with their opinions. It wasn't until the development of Democracy and Free Speech that rational people were able to speak out against the human atrocity called religion. If following the bible and loving God inspired Christians to slaughter millions in the numerous Crusades and Inquisitions, wouldn't todays Christians still be burning people at the stake if they had their way? Why or why not?

Just because blacks bring up slavery, that doens't mean we're using it as an excuse to get over. Blacks dont know enough about slavery. It should be talked about even more. What's wrong with learning? Slavery in Africa was like working minumum wage here and they weren't slaves their entire lives and they weren't beaten like the cruel whites beat the african american slaves. Not all slaves were sold by Africans to the Europeans. Some were captured by Europeans. I know you whites are teaching your kids that it was all the Africans fault but you're lying. Blacks have been mentally affected by slavery and that's just the truth. If you try to say it happen a long time ago, what does that have to do with the fact that mind sets can trickle down from one generation to the next? Why do the kkk stil exist? That's proof that mindsets can be carried on. The only way to rid the slave mentality is to learn more about slavery. If blacks new more about slavery, crime would decrease.
