please, can somebody tell me, what the exact meaning of "peripendicular" is and where is comes from ?
I actualy know the translation of the words: peri= (greek) around etc. and pendicular means somthing kind a "pendulum like". But it make no real sense.
In german we have a totaly other word for the meaning of "in 90° to something" written "senkrecht" (spoken thank-racht)
so maybe somebody can explaine me the origin of this word

Do you think you will go to hell for having an abortion?

Acts 71:28 "By him (god) we have life and move and exist."
or
Ex 21:22,23 "In case man should struggle with each other and they really hurt a pregnant woman and her children do come out but not fatal accident occurs, he is to have damages imposed upon him without fail..."

What will happen to all the women who have killed?
Ex 20:13 "You must not murder"
The women who abort do murder.

I wish I would have known all this before because I had an abortion a long time ago.

The word Christian means to be 'christ like", which in turn means to be like Jesus, or specifically try to emulate him as best we can. If we look to the Bible to see the Life of Jesus we discover that he did things, that are uniquely Muslim. WHen he prayed in the Garden of getsemity he prostrated himself and put his face to the ground, Muslims do this 5 times a day, when he fasted, he fasted for 40 days straight, Muslims do this in Rhamadan (fasting month), His dress and appearance is seen today my Muslims (beard & robe, when Jesus greeted people he said peace be unto you (shalom alaikum in hebrew) Muslims say asalaamu alaikum (peace be unto you. Jesus refrained from pork, he actually killed 200 of them in 1 account of the bible, Muslims refrain themselves from pork also. Todays modern Christian does none of these things and they say their faith is what will grant them heaven but remember James 2:14-26. "Faith without works is dead"

I wonder sometimes if faith based scrutiny of others is just deflection of anyone noticing the personal flaws of the perpetrator

Since getting every species of animal in the world into Noah's ark is impossible unless god magically used his powers to do it, and god could also flood the world at will, what did he need Noah for?

Why bother making Noah build an ark, collect every animal, magically make them all fit in an ark and somehow feed the carnivores without killing any of the other animals?

Why wouldn't god have cut out the middleman and moved the animals out of the way while flooding the earth? If he could perform miracles and transport matter, moving the animals should have been a piece of cake.

Oh, that's right, nothing about this story makes any sense. And it was plagiarized from the Epic of Gilgamesh.

My impression is that there are more non-believers than God botherers on this site.

Well, I really enjoy their music and their references to mythology and deep concepts. They aren't necessarily christian though. What about Rush, they seem to sing alot about loving nature and knowledge hidden in mythological stories.It woul be a a shame if I could never hear their magical words of wisdom in an environment that is suppose to be the ultimate place of understanding, comfort and enjoyment.
It's no secret that they may have mystic beliefs but I still understand Jesus' teachings.
What am I to do?
