If you had read one of my earlier questions, you probably know that my town is being ravaged by a childlike leprechaun. He used his Irish enchantments to make the town think he is a kid. He even tricked the police into putting me in jail for one day. I'm thoroughly pissed right now. How can I stop him? I visited my 10 year old niece the other day and I looked at her school yearbook. The friggin leprechaun was in it! His "name" was Joel Jamieson. Ugh. He has fooled the school into accepting him as a student! I cannot take this anymore. I am going to get him. He has infiltrated a house on my street, so his domain is just walking distance from my house. He has fooled the married couple into thinking that he is their son. Ha! It all ends tonight. I am armed with a crow-bar and a baseball bat. Time to give this leprechaun what he deserves! If I am not successful, please tell me other ways to defeat this leprechaun. Thank you for your time!

After the flood, all the vegitation would have drowned, so what did the animals have to eat? Also, how did we get the populations we have today considering the lack of variety in the gene pool if there was only 1 male and 1 female of every animal?

Note: The Bible and "God" isn't science. Therefore, answers with either of them are not valid answers to this question.

Who else is into metaphysics? Personally I'm deep into but it's so sad that I'm not able to talk with the people around me about it because it's too OUT there for them to understand. It deals with alot of profound stuff that the average person would run from. But people fear what they don't understand.

I am a Christian who lives in a country in Latin America, what do I have to do with the Middle Eastern War? War is caused by the God of Christians. I think you are generalizing with that statement.

How do we know that the bible is correct?
It was written thousands of years ago by men. It has been passed down through many corrupt times ( you cannot all agree that the church has been directly in the will of god since it was written.) And even the actual books in the new testament were not actually compiled as they are today untill 397 A.D. at the Councill of cCarthage.

I have found that alot of people only answer stupid questions but they never answer about anything important like God and Christianity. Why is this?

The Bushians, Bush Christians, try to justify combining church and state today in 2 ways:
1. Claim there is no such separation.
2. Claim cuz the forefathers were Christian that they wanted it this way.

So, let's examine what the forefathers were thinkin in their own words so u can stop falsely speaking 4 them:

Thomas Jefferson, one of our Christian forefathers stated on this topic: "...I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should "make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof, thus building a wall of separation between Church and State."
http://www.leaderu.com/orgs/probe/docs/churchstate.html

Emphasis on the last sentence in his quote, "thus building a wall of separation between Church and State."

I know you Bushians wont agree with bold truth and fact cuz you lack that ability and only want to believe what you want to be true.

But there it is in your face!

I'm a very trusting person, but I seem to be coming across this more and more. I think it must be jealousy to be honest. I am not jealous of anybody, and wish only good for my girl friends and yes, for women in general, I think I have a sense of loyalty to my fellow women. Just because I am attractive, intelligent and successful, does this mean I deserve bad feeling from other women?

I don't know what it is. Maybe it is because my father yelled at me so much as a kid. Maybe it is because I grew up in a bad neighborhood and had so many bad experiences. Maybe it is because in school I was constantly teased and ridiculed by other students because of my shyness. But whatever the reson I just have a hard time talking to people. I am even afraid to be around because I am afraid they will say things to me. And I never know what to say when someone asks me if I want to do something and I do not want to do it. I do not want to say know because I know it hurt their feelings, so I usually just make something up and end up making a fool of myself. This happens a lot since I am attending a small historically black institution and the presence of so few students means it is more likely that someone will ask me something like that. And it does happen all the time, and I keep embarassing myself. It is making me hate my college and ruining my self esteem. What is wrong with me?

Joshua10:13 The sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the nation had avenged themselves of their enemies. Isn't this written in the book of Jashar? The sun stayed in the midst of the sky, and didn't hurry to go down about a whole day.
