I mean why not 3000 or 10000? Why do most of the Young Earth creationists settle on the 6000 year old model?
What evidence do they have to support this?
I'd really like to know.

If I get this right it goes like this, Adam knew Eve (sex) and begot Cain. Adam knew Eve once more and begot Able. That’s it! Then Cain kills Able, and is given the mark by the Lord and sent to dwell in the land of Nod, east of Eden. Then Cain knew is wife and begot Enoch. Where the flipping gram crackers did Cain’s wife come from? The Bible makes no mention of any more sons or daughter before Cain’s discretion or after, before Enoch is born? Did she just appear? Why is this just assumed or look over? Let hear some mindless drivel on this. Don't make anything up and don't assume, I want hear something that I can look up and verify, with actual historical doctrin.

I feel like I have reached a level in life of such understanding and wisdom that God may think my time has come to join him.I am now far superior than the mere humans I walk this earth with. Maybe it is time.
Has this ever happened to you?

If you gamble, make bets on how long the world has until it goes bye bye, or perhaps bet on who goes to heaven during the rapture and who is in the inferno. Personally I am betting on who is lame enough to believe their pastor or whatever that says...oh give me all your money, buy LEFT BEHIND BOOKS! believe it enough to play for every book put out by those idiots....making money off the BIBLE! lol and some people read that more than the bible..lol hee hee weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Most people believe that a loving God wouldn't send anyone into hell, but given mankind's track record of continuous evil/sin/lawlessness, I see no other alternative, lest He makes another way for us to get there. Can we ever be good enough to merit heaven through any religious works?

Let's face it I only have 2 children on this earth and they drive me nuts at time. I am so grateful that God is a more forgiving and patient Father than I am as a mother. If He wasn't I don't think any of us would be here. Imagine so many disobediant children who can not get along.

I've heard that some people believe bi men are just gay men in denial. But I know one who is very open and comfortable with his sexuality. Are you, or do you know, any other truly bi men?

She's a kind of lonely freak. She could keep it going for three solid months, without seeing anyone, just locked up in her appartment, with NO tv, just reading books and meditating. She thinks this is good for her but I think it's bad and she should be more surrounded by other people to share her thoughts rather than stay with books all the time. What do you think of this?

This should not be an offensive question to you. I think it is a neutral question. Here it is:

What do you think about someone who says "forget about religion" but then they start talking about how Jesus is the only way? Does this sound like a cop-out to you the way it does to me? I am religious and am not ashamed to say it. I will also be the first to admit that I am a sinner and am far from the religious ideal that I struggle to meet. But I think that a lot of people don't know what being religious means. What do you think?

I've been looking thru the answers to alot of these religious based questions and the hatred spewing forth from the Christians is staggering. To no less a factor than many of the other responses from different religions. Is organized religion so arrogant that it can't even recognize/ acknowledge another religion? At least Buddhism allows one to explore various paths. Christianity seems to scream "believe or burn". Is that really how it wants to be portrayed? As the ideology of some 2000 yr old diety waving his finger in my face like some senial old man trying to wrap his clamy hands around the fact that the end has already begun. Didn't work out too well during the Spanish Inqusition. I know there are going to be those of you who are going to tell me that for my questioning I will burn. But for the love of all that is just plain good, couldn't I get some rationality and logically based answers as well? Is organized religion so arrogant as to believe that it is the only possibility?

I would like to live more simply and not be such a consumer. Do you have any tips other than obvious answers like "don't spend so much?"

Thanks

Before 150 years ago, people only protested openly against war or oppression; it was called a "revolution". At some point in the 1800's, people were complaining that women didn't have rights. Then they started protesting war during the hippie movements, and now they protest mainly gay rights and war, possibly some anti-nazi or abortion marches too.

What's next? See, now I'm thinking that people will start becoming convinced that pedophilia isn't that bad.

Someone told me the read a story about a couple who were breaking up, registered for eHarmony and got matched to each other then decided not to break up.

If anyone could guide me to and documentation of such an incident I’d appreciate it big time.

I believe we live in a society of closet racists.Especially the older generation but isn't it instinctual to protect and nurture your own even if it is to the detriment of another race? Considering how strongly territorialus humans are, will we ever live in a racist free world? Can we manage this without law enforcement so that it is a true choice and not something we are forced to abide by?
