I was at the mall today working part time and i was cleaning the gunk from around the edges of the inner bowl. A pure layer of gunk was on my finger from the bowl. It smelled and tasted pretty weird, more like a bitter, liver flavor. What causes that ?

Since people believe he is real, and the lessons from the mistakes one could learn seem attributed to him, It seems just them holding that idea in their minds makes it very real for people who choose to beleive in him. This looks evil, must be satan. I don't understand this, must be satan. You shouldn't figure that out, satan is tempting you. You want to learn some metaphysical concepts of how god works, must be satan. When Eve ate the apple because of her curiosity, must be satan. The point is satan seems to be a synonym for fear and misunderstanding. If you really believed and knew where you were going after this life, you would have no fear and satan disappears completely. The apple from the tree of knowledge wasn't a test. Curiosity was born that day, and thus the adventure began.

Really? What do you think?

Please don't try to figure out why I asked. Just go off on the question.

Thanks.

Okay, in India it is culturally unacceptable to use your left hand to shake a persons, eat, or do anything else that may come spread its "germs."

Indian people in business regard their left hand as their "dirty-hand."

How do they cut up meat? Are steaks, chicken, acceptable?

Christianity is so often ridiculed and i think that people need to respect it even if they dont believe it, because it is not only the basis for most of our societie's "morals" but the rue answer to problems.

Please don't bash me without hearing me out. I am a christian that believes homosexuality is a sin, not just because the bible says so. I believe it makes no sense for a man to love a man or a woman to love a woman. I believe we are males and females for a reason. To create children and live on. I know many people say they are born that way, but if I was born with the need to sleep with as many women as possible should I? Please don't think I mean any disrespect because I don't but I would like a good respectable answer for this question. Thank you and may God bless you.

why then do so called churches have paid ministers, fancy buildings, expensive robes, art, gold, swiss bank accounts? Is that not the very opposite to what he said when it would be easier for a camel to get thru the eye of a needle than a rich man into heaven?
Thats why i hate religions - the hypocrasy, not the morality

With this new change in society and homosexuality being more accepted than it ever has, why are so many blacks still in the closet?

Or should I just let it burn through?

About 2 hrs ago I asked how you light it, which I know how to do, and I just tried it and it worked, but could you tell me if there's a way to put it out? It's for Lammas. Thank you, you're all great people! ;-)

How can young babies have "sinned" if they haven't long been born? It doesn't make sense!

Why is it that to get into heaven, when on television the Evangelical churches often say that I need to have my credit card ready! or words to that effect, pay a tithe. Usually with some ify reason to phone in? Some churches (or television preachers) ask people for large donations, donations poor people can ill afford.

Do others find this distasteful? Is it these churches that keep people "a safe distance from a God" that they can not afford?

Please do not tell me this does not happen because I have witnessed it many, many times. Is it time to rein these blackmailers, or expose them for what they are?

I read it on yahoo answers every day, that Jesus is Truth. If this were so, why isn't everyone following Jesus. Wouldn't the fact or the knowledge that this is the truth be so obvious that everyone on Earth would want to follow it. Why is it rejected

for example, a friend of mine had fullblown hysterics after her partner said he was leaving for good, she was devasted but at the same time thought to herself I must remember how to do this when I'm on the stage..! We laughed about it .Similarly, I remember thinking I wonder if I'll ever be able to whistle again (I never whistle) before I even hit the ground when I fell down a flight of concrete steps. What was the oddest thought you had in a 'crisis'?

seriously, i think that if you really dug deep enough into the psyche of even the most moderate muslim you will find a wellspring of hatred and rage toward jews.

why? cuz they "took" some of your land? get over it, jesus. if i hear something about supporting zionism one more time i'm going to spit.
