Joseph almost certainly laboured under performance anxiety, don't you think? God's are mighty shoes to fill. Some religious sisters actually believe that "once you go God, baby, you never go back."

Me, I'd welcome the challenge. I wouldn't mind going second best in the universe to the Big Almighty. And a close second at that, I'll bet. I got skills.

I am an arabian, and have asked this question somewhere else on the internet. I've been told they smell, have bad grammar and a bad accent, and shy/can't make any friends except for their own race, oh and are terrorist and will do nothing but kill and suicide bomb.
Well... I take shower everyday so I don't smell, on top of that I wear Gucci so much that pretty much all my clothes smell like it and has become my natural body smell. I have really good grammar, and get As in high school. I'm not really shy, matter of fact i'm known to get crazy at parties. Terrorist? Well I could if I wanted to, but I'm planning to go with my family up to Dubai, Saudi Arabia and make more than a mil a year. So what is your impresion/stereotype of arabians?

Is the last name DeLong French in origin? Or does anyone know any information on this surname? Which country would someone with this name have came from?

Most of them preach the same message but in a different way. I was born Roman Catholic, raised Roman Catholic, and went to a Roman Catholic college preperatory school. After high school, I started to question my beliefs (1998) and ever since I have half-joined different sects including hardcore Evangelists and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (Mormons). I don't want to go to hell for choosing the wrong one and sticking with it. I am very spiritual and I although I don't want to stray from Christianity, I don't believe people who believe in other religons...other gods...are going to go to hell, but I do obsess over the fact that I might if I don't choose the right Christian sect. I know that sounds kind of weird.

Why are 99% of the questions here so utterly stupid and braindead? And why do most of them sound as if they had been put through an online translator, what with the bad grammar and all...and don't let me get started on the spelling. Does this site just attract really dumb people? Are you part of the 99% or the 1%? If you're the latter, I'll credit you the best way I can - 10 points.

No one has ever EVER (no italics so I'm using caps, I'm not being angry) stated that we came from monkeys with any scientific knowledge. Monkeys and humans both evolved from a common ancestor, saying we evolved from monkeys is like saying your fifth cousin twice removed gave birth to you. No, we are both primates and that is about the biggest similarity between us. I just don't like the question "If we came from monkeys how come the other monkeys didn't evolve!?"

I asked a similar question awhile ago and I didn't know all the details and admittedly looked a little dumb, but I've read the modern synthasis of the theory since and see where I was wrong. Everyone should read the modern theory before they bash evolution, it makes almost too much sense to be a theory anymore.

PS,
A religious publication is the worst possible place to get information on the subject. It is a biased source and so should be discreditted. If you're going to read about it read it from an objective source.

And for that matter, if he died, then when was he born?? I don't think these people are referring to Jesus Christ, God the Son. But, I would certainly like to know what they are getting at. If you are atheist, isn't it easier to say, "there is no god," rather than "God is dead???"

No extreemists. No suicide bombers. No inquisition. No witch trials. No guilt. No Dark Age. etc............. How many have to die for this need to feel we will have an after-life (like with 50 virgins)? That there is someone in control?

(from another post I made earlier)

apparently, christianity is the history religion of choice when it comes to racist interpretations:

1. curse of canaan slander against blacks used to justify slavery- unacceptable now, but popular at the time like the pro-israel theory is now

2.jews=christ killers slander- led to unimaginable tragedies across europe, culminating in holocaust- again, unthinkable now- the ignorant masses ate it up back then as part of "christianity"

3.now we have "god will bless those who bless israel!!11!". do you realize how retarded this is?? it is a country, made up of mere humans- how can anyone support a country unconditionally? even if the country begins eating children as ritual, still support it anyway? even if this nation steals, murders, etc still support it? yeah, clearly that is the purpose of a religion- to promote BLIND NATIONALISM.
