Apparently, my spirit is from Andromeda. That makes me a star person. I do believe in other wordly beings, but this causes me problems. There could be other beings in our galaxy that could travel between the stars, and indeed come to ours. But from another galaxy altogether?
Why would beings from another galaxy even be interested in ours...let alone a seemingly backwards planet as earth?

How do you answer a question in which any side you take, you will be criticized? Would you simply say "no comment"? Would it be better to try to answer even if that means you are criticized?

Another persons answer to another persons question. I would just like some interesting conversation and refutes to it....
Here Goes...AGAIN THIS IS NOT My oWn Statement it is something I found on here as part of someones answer.

"There is no evidence in the Old Testament to support the assertion that Satan rebelled against God at all. And don't give me that bull about the "serpent" in Genesis 3 being Satan, either - there's no link except the one that has been pounded into your head since you were five years old.

Satan's most prominent appearance in the Old Testament is in the book of Job. Satan, far from being a crafy tempter who tries to cause people to sin, is a part of the LORD's council in heaven and was, if you will, on God's payroll! Indeed, the Catholic Church today, when considering candidates for beatification, identifies a "devil's advocate" to accuse and test the candidate's life and works to make sure s/he is worthy - exactly what Satan does to Job in the OT story.

They sure are eye-openers. I really want to take care of myself, for as long as I can. My mom's in one right now, hopefully for a short while, for physical therapy. She and I need your prayers.

As an Atheist I've noticed many believers dismiss the possibility that science may come up with an answer to the origin of life. I realize that if scientist do come to a conclusion on the origin of life and it does not match the believers belief it could cause serious problems for the belief industry. I'm thinking you would probably think that it would be impossible for scientist to discover any other possibility then the one you've read in the bible. So that begs the question, do you believe anything else the scientist say. Like do you believe we landed on the moon, cured polio, or how about advances in surgery and medicine? Do you believe the evidence that points to global warming?Do you believe the evidence that shows evolution is happening?Keep in mind believers have been wrong before. Galileo was found guilty for heresy in 1633, imprisoned, and not forgiven until 1992 by the church for his scientific theory that the earth circled the sun. Not the opposite as the church "believed"

I've heard that in China you cannot only lose or save face, you can give face as well. What exactly does it mean to give someone face? How does one go about giving face? What happens if I inadvertently neglect to give face?

when i think about the girls today i compared their behavior and choice of clothing to what i was like when i was their age, i was really surprised at how skanky and mature they behave and dress... has anyone else noticed that? mind you im not that old, im under 25 years old.. do parents notice this? do they encorage it by buying their children the clothing? or are their children just copying their older siblings and parents?

I am so excited to be able to be used by God as a witness to others that may need a word from God, a prayer, a hug. All God wants from me is to love Him and to tell of His love, to everyone. Not a hard 'job', is it?

If the USA AND RUSSIA get involved in Isreal it could possibly be WW3.But as christians we all know that we will not witness the tribulation. Any comments greatly appreciated but no smart comments......We really need to pray for this situation. Are you afraid of the coming of christ to reclaim his own people?

Deut 25:11-12

11 If men get into a fight with one another, and the wife of one intervenes to rescue her husband from the grip of his opponent by reaching out and seizing his genitals, 12you shall cut off her hand; show no pity.

For it to be included in the Bible this must have been a problem.

what do you think?

Ok, here's the deal, worship me, unconditionally, or goto hell, and burn for eternity. It doesn't matter if you like my views or whatever, what i say goes.

That's the way I see it. Sure there are some good things in the bible, but what about this for instance........

Deut 25:11-12

11 If men get into a fight with one another, and the wife of one intervenes to rescue her husband from the grip of his opponent by reaching out and seizing his genitals, 12you shall cut off her hand; show no pity.

yeah sure, it's a good philosophy, but who is really going to do this? Ok, done.
