North Korea has repeatly stated it's intention to bomb another country and distroy the United States as well as Japan. They are clearly trying to provolk a war hoping to bring in China, Russian, and the Muslim world against the U.S.A. and Japan/ South Korea.
So what choice do we have?

It is obvious to me that most video games are fictional, take City of Villains, a game that I play. You create a Villain with "Powers" that no human can posses for they are fictional. The missions you do that are suppose to be crimes are really not something a human would ever do because you fight characters that like the one you created have fictional "powers". Yet some religions would put a stamp or seal on this type of game and would want to ban or censor it. Logically none of the things in most video games would be physically posible for a human to do, so why would it be censored or banned?

i've been deeply moved by my experience of browsing

http://www.godchecker.com/
Godchecker.com - Your Guide To The Gods. Mythology with a twist!

It is a project to profile the gods of the human species. A dossier is included, along with a little section called 'vital statistics', where you can compare each god objectively.

I am amazed. it gives me such a strong feeling of understanding humans' belief in supernatural beings. having them all there together on one site, with descriptions that err on the side of the comical and are refreshingly devoid of over enthusiastic reverence (that so often seems hollow) ... i have such a feeling of knowing, for sure, that there is no one true god. there are thousands, as it says.

and don't we humans have fantastic imaginations! the demons are way better than in any pc game!

also, note the common theme of gods being immortal and/or allowing us to be immortal. i think this is the basis of religious belief.

Im not arguing the point that God can do whatever he wants to do but what benefit of the human race does God get a son and call him Jesus. How can I relate to Almighty God and the son he wishes to have. Wouldnt it just be simple to call Jesus God directly. Jesus never directly stated he was God. Jesus only seemingly implied it through proverbs and cryptic sayings. That whole "I AM" passage is prime example, Jesus hinted at it but he never stood on a house top and yelled explictly " I AM GOD" It was enough for Peter , one of Christs prime followers, to say Jesus was the son of God and Jesus credited him with divine revelation above his fellows. So what am I missing something, If so show me someone.

(I'm into odd questions today, forgive me.)
Serious Christian answers only please. This question is not open for debate for non-believers.

About a half year ago, I had a dream with Jesus in it. I didn not see his face (as in most my dreams) but I knew it was Him. We were in the Holy City, in some building I would consider worn and aged.
He told me that I needed to get out of the building because He was going to push over the house of Judah with just his finger.

This is BEFORE I knew that Jesus came from the house of Judah.
Is this just my mind focused on Jesus or something else? I was reading mostly OT at the time, but nothing that was always saying the name Judah.

I've also heard that catholics believe that the only book that can be stacked on top of the Bible is another Bible. A nun told me these things.

What did they do to deserve more money than mos tof them would earn in their life times..Why should they have been made instant millionaires. Most of them now bash the country which made them filthy rich so they could live in luxury without working.

Isn’t it incumbent for the giver of a gift to be responsible for whom he gives that gift? And isn’t the giver of a gift blameworthy if he gives gifts to those whom he knows will abuse those gifts? Should we make drugs available to 8 year olds and alcohol available to 6 year olds? Would you give a razor blade to a two year old?
