Why would they (not) work? Would you learn one?

(It is fair to say I am an Idist, though it is not a commercial activity, and I'm not making money out of it, so I'm violating no guidelines by mentioning it.)

When does Yahoo Answers make you laugh? For me it is when someone emails me and says something like "I am not the dummy, you are!"

I personally like the ones with the long hair and in their first half of their 30's. (I'm 45.) Is there any particular look you like in a younger man and age category?

He died Friday afternoon and was buried by sunset. He rose from the dead Early Sunday Morning with the breaking of the dawn. That would be less then 48 hours. How many days is 48 hours? Why does the bible also say that the value of pi is 3?

I'll probably yet again be branded a racist for this. These questions are mainly targeted towards minorities; I'm curious about this.

If you are a minority, does it offend you to hear a white person say they are proud to be white? Does this make the person a racist in your view?

How would you feel if your local school started a "Caucasian club" but allowed people of any race to join? (just because I've already seen the same thing with an "Asian club."

How about if the government or a private association started scholarships, available only to white students?

I just can't understand why it seems like people think it's ok for other races to do these things, but that it's not ok for white people to do the same thing.

well being Jewish is good-but before i rejected Moses required blood atonement for sins for passover and yom kippur-but i found Isaiah explained its fulfillment in the coming Messiah (700 bce) Isaiah 52 vs 13-53 vs 12 to be marred more than any man before exaulted and to be the anointed one Messiah, the lamb of God to atone for our sins." and other placesIsaiah 9:6 "Unto us a child is born, a son is given, and he shall be the prince of peace, the almighty God, and the wonderful counselor."
why do others reject the Jewish prophet and then say they are Jewish-what do u believe? help me please
finally i prayed as the Messiah said to do-Revelation 3 vs 19&20 to open our heart and let him in to deliver from sin and become our friend - "Behold i stand at your heart door and knock if u repent from your sins, I will come in and become your friend-amen"
now i am a full Jewish person with a Jewish Messiah-
what do u believe-and i pray u believe in him too-he is so wonderfull

If you send an email to a business asking a question and they reply....should you send another email thanking them for the reply? or is that not necessary? Is it rude not to?

Was he mal-treated as a child or something? He just uses emotive language to convince the viewer that his stupid right wing views are right. I am English but I spent a year in the US.

good and evil are things in our mind, we make them evil because we attach a moral to them. If there was a killer who just killed for killing, not thinking at all, would be a pure killing machine and only a machine with a purpose. It becomes evil when the person is conciencious of his actions.

So if you do not think your actions are evil, they are not. It is only when you think they might be evil, that they indeed, become evil. When you feel guilt, this is when you feel evil. If you got rid of guilt, the grain or "heart" of your action would just be purposeful, and ceaze to be evil.

That does not mean, however, that such actions would be beneficial to society, someone who kills and does not think its evil (really really, not just killing for revenge but is actualyl psychopathic), should just be killed because he is a menace to socieyt, and prevents our existance as a race if we let him roam free in the genepool.

All this swirling controversy about what I say and my search for Gods face.What should I do ? Go and sit in a church and wait for somone to conjure Him up for me? Should I wait and let someone talk Him into me ? ( rotfl) I doubt that will occur. What is this langauge barrier you say Jesus has ? He gets nervous when I say karma instead of sowing and reaping ? Does the moon and His creatures I love have power to steal His glory and my attention from Him ? I dont think so. I dont think God is nervous over me. Im ripping out all the stops and religiosity so I CAN FIND HIM. I know its Jesus. Hes not having a panic attack over my antics and He isnt bipoloar...Hes surely happy Im fussing and ranting and want His attention. Mystics, anicients...wise ones..help this teenage goddess please ?

hey... i have a "friend" who hurts herself... i tried to tell her nicely to stop... i tried to explain that it wasn't going to help her and that if someone hurt her, then he's an idiot and she doesn't have to hurt herself... but she won't stop. i told her to talk to her parents or a teacher she likes. but she doesn't trust adults. so i told her to talk to me about her problems. she did. she felt better but she keeps cutting her wrist. what do i do? help please. this is really important. when she doesnt hurt herself. then she has sex with every guy she finds. that's not better. i think she has a serious problem but i really wanna help her. please tell me what i should do for her. is there any way to help more than i did?

Does Islam allow any leeway on what name you call the One God? How forgiving is Allah?

Also, does Islam make any distinction between Allah and the Christian God, or does it teach that they are the same God? Is the Christian God viewed as a false god and an imposter? Is being a Christian considered idol worship in the Islamic view?

today at church we had a guest pastor. he said today in this world we as christians we need to leave christianity and become sons. because we as believers want to be like jesus. so we cant be christians because jesus was not a christian. he was a son. the son of god. my point is we need to leave religion persay and become sons of god. christianity is a new thing. so do you get my point. i asked this question cuz i want opinions on this. i agree with it.
