about their faith. I ask questions about contradictions in the Bible or logical questions taken from my knowledge of their religion and have never yet got a straight answer. I get lots of abuse, and threats.
Maybe asking them questions is akin to mocking the afflicted. What do you think? an example of one of my questions... If Jesus
is the god Christians believe in he would have fore knowledge of all events. Therefore when he commited the offence that lead to his arrest and execution he must have known he would be executed. Therefore he commited suicide didn't he?

I ask this because my good friend from childhood is gay, but has nothing against me or what i do in life (Sports, UFC, etc.) However his boyfriend seems opposed to everything not stereotypical gay. Its like he has to prove hes gay. I just don't get it . . . he expects everyone to treat him like any other person, but he doesn't act like a regular person. Just confusing.

I have seen in the media lately some Islamic leaders denying the Holocaust...is this the opinion of just a few extremists or is it the general Muslim world view?

I had to overcome much in my life because neither of my parents are genetically fit to have kids. My mother is 5' even while my dad is 5'7". Both are pretty ugly. They should have been sterilized. They are both philistines. Now I'm a 5'6" 21 year NYU college student who has never had a girlfriend and am forced to supress any sexual urge I might have. I asked approximately 23 girls out throughout my life and have been turned down every time due to my height. My parents both have I.Q.'s of peanuts and they were never able to support me financially or emotionally throughout my life. Now I'm an emotional AND financial cripple. Things WILL NOT get better for me as every day gets worse and worse. Why do people with horrendous genes feel the need to pass their genes onto the next generation? Dont they know that that will create suffering exactly the way I'm suffering now? I will try to fly to the Netherlands to undergo Euthanasia - or as I call it a very very very late term abortion.

Some people have chemical or hormonal imbalances that might hinder their ability to truly understand the Gospel. Is there anything in the Bible that deals with this?

my father died when I was 13 for 3 months I prayed to God to please let me see him just one more time. Then one night as I was about to go to sleep I looked up at the roof over my bed and a yellow orb about the size of a basketball came through the roof and stopped about one foot face. I was scared until it stopped in front of me but as soon as it stopped I instantly felt very safe and at ease. Then it started riseing up and I went with it.It carried me to a place I can only call paradise! I cant describe the wonderful fealing of joy,peace,love,that filled every poor of my body. Then I saw my father standing there. He was at a white table beside a log cabin. Their was a beautiful river beside it.
He told me not to worry about him that he would be there waiting on me.
Then I looked at the river and ask if I could jump from the tree beside of it. He smiled and said yes.I jumped in and the only way I can describe it is the water penetrated me and healed me.(out of room)

It is a common misconception that 5 de Mayo is Mexico's Independence Day, which is celebrated on the 16th of September.
Mexico's independence was recognized by the Spanish viceroy in 1821. Since the late 19th century, a re-enactment has become traditional: the President of Mexico rings Hidalgo's bell (now at the National Palace on the Zócalo in Mexico City) and repeats Hidalgo's words (or a variant thereof) every year at 11:00 pm of September 15.

5 de Mayo commemorates the victory of Mexican forces over the French occupational forces in the Battle of Puebla in 1862.

Drives me crazy... that's all. I love celebrating, don't stop!! at least now you know the meaning

so I guess we're not smart enough for you and science and we stick to our "myths" and old-fashioned way, then you atheists blast us for not being "intelligent". Well, excuse me! Maybe I should just go out in the rain and hide in a bush.

I am a christian and I believe in Jesus Christ, so your opinion is now crap. Anything you think you know is worthless becuz I know a lot of things that you don't know. Don't preach at me about being a stupid and superstitious little idiot with a fake God. I'm not the one who needs an education, you are. You don't even know why the world exists!! You ought to keep your mouth shut when you can't even tell me that, and I do know by the way
