Society & Culture - 8 August 2006

I live in Utah, and I'm always coming across Sagebrush, but I've been in need of Sage for smudging. I was wondering if I could just use the Sagebrush, so I don't have to buy low quality, overpriced Sage at the store. Are Sage and Sagebrush close enough to being the same plant??? Or will I be bringing a whole host of nasty sh!t down upon my head if I don't use the Sage? I'm Pagan, and the DOES have to do with my Religion! I NEED to cleanse my place! {I've got nasties all over...}

During the 1870's, a cave was found in the Guadalupe Mountains of Eddy County, New Mexico. Inside were two human skeletons. Around the neck of one was a silver chain with a brass plate on which was engraved this cryptic message:

I understand that some scientists and athiests tried to disprove God's existance by saying the Earth and planets were created by the Big Bang Theory. My question is, where did the gases come from that created the big bang theory? What created the solar system and outer space? Who can answer this?

If you go out to shopping or anything else, why do some people call by "Sir" instead of "Friend" or "buddy"? Is this because the person being called "Sir" doesn't know how to treat people nicely?
Someone told me that "Sir" is for someone who you don't trust. For example, If I am working as a cashier in store, a customer says to me "thank you,sir."



Thank you for your time.

According to the world, no. But if so, are people trying to hide it, and why? And why are there so many frauds? I think the supernatural exists (based on some experiences) even though I am naturally sceptic (being scientifically educated). Maybe many people will never accept it, even if there is clear evidence, because they made up their minds. I also think peoples' perception of what "evidence" is can vary drastically. What do you think?

I do have inherent morals. Animals have no religion and some are still known to adopt abandoned babies, feed a family, and help others in general. Where was their religious influence? Or are animals more moral than humans? Or are you going to make up some excuse like because animals have no religion God gave them inherent morals? Not an attack, just obvious proof you are wrong, don't make up something crazy please.I really don't understand how anyone could call atheism a bleak outlook with that kind of rationale for morals, "I'm an emotionless robot lent morals be a creator". I'm asking people who support morals as souly religious, if you don't I have no quarrel with you and I'm not generalizing.

I'm unclear about whether or not Sharia (Islamic law) is considered to be what God directly commands us to do and/or not to do.

Is ALL of Sharia from God, or are parts of it dictated by extremist who pervert Mohammad's Qur'anic code?

Then how can Christians claim that angels don't have free will like we do, and that is why we can be saved and the demons (fallen angels) can't. Don't they teach logic in Sunday school?
