ARE WE IN THE END TIMES?

2006-07-18 14:18:29 · 18 answers · asked by Anonymous in Religion & Spirituality

Don't give partial answers, like "because women have breasts."

That doesn't really answer the question. Men have redimentary breasts with rudimentary mammary epithelium located on top of the pectoral muscles.

The only difference between female breasts and male breasts is males possess less fatty tissue.

Many non-western cultures, from indiginous South-American societies to aboriginal tribes in Australia, do not believe female nipples to be obscene, and the women often walk around topless just as the men often do. Nor does European television censor nipples.

So why are male nipples ok, yet female nipples obscene?
What is obscene about it?

Women can become sexually aroused from seeing a man topless, just as can a man, vice-versa. Why the double-standard?

"how three different things can be one and the same,how anything singularly absolute in its unity with its indivisible oneness, can ever by itself become divided into three separate beings with three variant native attributes opposed to each other justifying the distribution into the three different entities.

An Absolute one must be totally independent in its existence,as it impossible to reason out the doctrine of the Holy Trinity. The science of Mathematics or any other science which any human genius can ever conceive, until the end of time, can never solve this inconceivable riddle.

The only thing is that Christians are shut out of the vast sources of knowledge about the truth and of the higher factors in matters of religion which are available outside our own fold, by damning every non-Christian as the devil's work."

For example, if you name your girl Lakeisha and she submits a resume to somebody who is in a position to hire her and that person chooses to call a girl named "Jill". Now Jill might also be a black woman but Lakeisha lost out on an opportunity because of this racist person.

Sure it was wrong what that person did, but my point is a black child is going to have enough difficulties getting along in a society that has some serious race issues...why make it more difficult by attaching a name to that child that makes it that much more difficult for them?

I've looked into it before. I'd like opinions. The tornadoes never harm me (except having paralyzed me in a couple of dreams by running over my legs). I'm usually only anticipating the tornadoes and seeing them coming from the distance...and then I wake up! I've had this recurring dream for more than 10 years.

people say that brasilian women or spanish women or so-and-so women are more beautiful than others but are they just looking at the supermodels and the women in the media?

i think if these people actually went to the countries, they would realize that there are more average women than the so-called beauty queens....and besides, cant you find beautiful women in every country??? its not like specific countries produce more beautiful women that others....

This topic has never been brought up on TV because its too touchy but you would be blind not to notice that gay men dominate clothing designs, hair styling, interior decorating, dance studios. How did men get to be at the top of these professions that women have been mastering for centuries? Is this a form of double reverse discrimination. Is it women being held down again but by gay men instead of straight men?

Everyone seen the pictures of how Jesus look. Now why would God come down to earth in that in image? Wouldnt this make every race of people that is not the same as Jesus feel inferior to that race of people? Would that make people feel not equal to other races?

I'm fairly proficient in Spanish, but I don't really know how to get this idea across in Spanish.

I have a Spanish speaking friend that likes me, but I don't like him in *that* way. I'm planning out what to say when I tell him that I don't like him like that, but I want to let him know that I still want to be his friend. In English, I would want to tell him something like: "I would much rather be your friend than nothing at all."

I was thinking of something like this: "Pero preferiría más ser tu amiga que nada". Does that sound OK to you? It doesn't sound quite right to me, though I'm not sure why. Suggestions? Alter the phrasing as you see fit, because the idea might be a little hard to translate.

Muchas gracias

(PS-- Please, people, No online translators!! I may not be fluent, but I can tell when something sounds silly. Oh, and yes, I do know all the vulgar words, so none of that, please.)

If you are a white women with full lips (Angelina Jolie) you are sexy and put on magazine covers but blackwomen with full lips are ignored as sex symbols and models.

I was running errands today and while waiting at a red light, I saw a couple holing a sign that read " Pregnant and homeless" I was wishing i had some extra money to give them, and thinking about how sad it was. She was visibily pregnant. The only money I had was fifteen dollars I was getting ready to put in my gas tank, because the gas light was on. So the light turned green, and my car would not go. I had just ran out of gas, and In all of my years I had never ran out of gas. I was right in front of the couple holding the sign. The man helped me push my car to the nearby gas station. I thanked him and gave him five dollars and put the ten dollars in my tank. I guess they needed that five dollars more than I did. I am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason, and that God was trying to tell me something today.
