from this verse:

John 14:16
And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;

another means another one from the same kind (a massenger from God)

1st comforter = Jesus
2nd comforter = Muhammad ?

I am a 33-year-old bisexual female.

I wouldn't tell a guy this at the outset of dating, because to me that would just be a waste of energy if it turns out that we don't like each other for some other reason. I also wouldn't tell him unless I felt I could trust him, mainly because I am not "out" to my family or co-workers yet. But I wouldn't want to wait until he's on one knee proposing to spring it on him, either.

What is a good "rule of thumb" for this sort of thing? Is it pretty much a matter of gut instinct?

to learn a little bit about other religions?? It amazes me to no end how fearful and ignorant a lot of people are of others beliefs....Why should I you ask??? Not to try and be CONVERTED to any other belief but just to be able to better understand where people are coming from. Plus it dispells a lot of myths. What's so wrong with that?? I have and it's only made me MORE secure in my own beliefs. There are several websites, one is www.beliefnet.com but it's just one of many...Let me know what's wrong with doing this??????????

I never hear any christians mentioning this, do they prefer to omit this from their minds because this fact must cast doubt on the existence of God?

You may say this is not a religious or spiritual question but it is to me. I am a Catholic and I try to start and finish each day leaning on God and His love. Today I sat on the porch after work and watched the sun rise, heard the birds and cicadas sing, and listened to the wind in the wind chimes. It gave me a sense of peace as I read my devotinal. What did you do?

If the right technology is available do you think Christians will 'help' God make the predictions in Revelation come to pass?

Through the ages some have predicted the dates on the end of the world and when it did not happen they killed themselves and scores of people.

But as technology advances I can see a nutty egotistical fool doing the deed just to say 'I told you so'.

The rare question I'll post about this subject, it's your lucky day.

We did not evolve from apes. Humans and apes evolved from a common ancestor. Apes are not the parents. The parent was neither ape or human.

Why do people say we evolved from apes? We evolved with apes, yes. But we also evolved with every other creature on earth.

Do people think it's shameful to be related to "lowly" beasts? Do some people just feel the need to be higher and something special?

I don't think it's shameful to have evolved from something lesser. We're evolving, not devolving. And I think every living thing is noble or genius in some way. It's the balance that they bring to bring to nature that helps us survive. It's like an older person feeling ashamed to be younger. It makes no sense to me.

I'm not trying to start a fight or anything, I'm genuinely interested.

Thank you.

Please compare such things as availability of food, medical care, transportation, technology, and basic human rights. Let's keep this discussion current: within the past 100 years, please! Comparing two specific countries (England vs China, for example) is fine.

I'm placing this question in Religion and Spirituality because Athiests often mock the outcome of governments that tolerate or base their governmental rules on one specific religion!

How did the Athiests do?

Maybe I made myself, maybe some other god made me, maybe you made me--let's put that aside for now. I'm here now. Why am I here? Many of you look up to me for purpose in life, and I have often stated that your purpose in life is to please me. (Read Revelation 4:11) If your purpose is to please me, what is my purpose? To please myself? Is that all there is to life?

If I exist for my own pleasure, then this is selfish. It makes it look as if I created you merely to have some living toys to play with. Isn't there some principle that I can look up to? Something to admire, adore, and worship? Am I consigned for eternity to sit here and amuse myself with the worship of others? Or to worship myself? What's the point?
have read your writings on the meaning of life, and don't misunderstand me, they make sense in the theological context of human religious goals, even if they don't have much practicality in the real world. Many of you feel that your purpose in life is to achieve perfection.

Or if he has a complete sex change into a woman and he is dating a woman would the woman be cosidered to be a lesbian (even though the woman she is dating used to be a man).

Notice the word: ANOTHER?

John 14:16
And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;

if the comforter is the holyspirit as John has claimed, then why would Jesus call the holyspirit with another?
another means = another one.
