Does anyone see a correlation between Genesis 3:15 and Jacob holding onto Esau's heel when the twins were being born? I know that most Chriatian ministers claim that Genesis 3:15 is about Jesus and Satan. Just wondering what your views were. Thanks.

I am a 24 yr old Christian man and regrettably I have always struggled with lust. Although I am refraining from sex till marriage, I have hard time controlling myself looking at hot, sexy girls on campus or on the street. I masturbate regularly and even watch porn sometimes!
I prayed to God so many times for help by saying following, "Dear God, I certainly feel blessed and really appreciate about the fact that I have total control against drugs, alcohol, tobacco, sex. I really thank you for that. But this lust problem, how I look at women, my porn habit is really making my life miserable. I don't want to associate with any of those things so I can become a better person. But it is hard, so hard for me to overcome myself. I really need ur help as I can't do it alone. Please help me, Dear God. Amen."
The progress has been slow despite my prayers to God. I know He is listening and knows how much I wanan be free of this lust. Can anyone offer me advice?

Blaise Pascal once said, "People almost invariably arrive at their beliefs not on the basis of proof but on the basis of what they find attractive." Are your beliefs based on emotions or logic? Feelings or reasons? Saying that you adhere to logic or reason itself is not good enough, for both theists and atheists have used logic to their advantage.

I went to church, still read my bible, and my family is somewhat religious. I have tried to be straight, been to church, prayed to God. I'm still a lesbian. So why do some people assume that going to church will somehow "change my lifestyle"?

If so many discoveries made by science have gone against religion already(ex. evolution, the creation of earth, prehistoric life), why do they still try to constantly deny these obvious facts.

I don't even believe in God, so why would he "save" me? Why would he let others, who prayed to him every day, die?

How does this make any sense at all?

Can you give me one piece of evidence toward the earth being older then 6000 or so years in age? Mind you I am going to combat your eviendence.

1) The moon is leaving the earth. It i sgetting farther away each year. It also governs the tides. In the past of course the moon was closer. Causing the tides to be so strong that it would flood all of the earth twice daily. And not that long ago either.

2) The earth is slowing down. They call it a leap second. About every two to three years the earth spins one second slower per year. If you look in the past the earth was spinning faster. You wouldn't have to go that far back and everything on earth would fly off into space because of the speed of the earth's spin thus proving earth can;t be millions and millions of years old.

why is it least likely for a puerto rican man to holla at a black girl?
I have always been atracted to puerto rican men...for some reason it is likely for you to see a puerto rican female hook up with a black male faster than a puerto rican male to hook up with a black girl. Why is this?
