What would people do if it came out that Jesus was gay? How would people reconcile what has been said on this subject with this fact?

Personally, I think people would not believe it, no matter how definitive the proof (e.g. even if Jesus outed himself to the world).

Read the article and tell me what you think. It is stated in the article that it is a type of character displacement.

God might give him/her terminal cancer when you're not looking. He's got a record of abusing children. I wouldn't trust him. He's got shifty eyes.

Ok I dont easily disown anyone, let alone a family member. But my brother is a drunk, he has screwed me over since i was very young and just recently I asked him to stay at my house with my baby while I went out with my husband. Baby was sleeping and my brother left to get beer!!!!! I immediately disowned him and screamed at him (if u knew me u would be in shock, i have never yelled at anyone before). ANYWAY my family wants me to forgive him and that's out of the question. I found out recently that we will all be in the same house for a week over Christmas. I dont want to affect everyone elses holidays - my husband is super pissed too. I also dont want to ruin my holiday and Im scared Im going to be a mess.

MYTH 1: The US was founded on Christian principles

MYTH 2: US Conservatives tend to be patriotic, ethical Americans; liberals tend to hate America and are immoral.

MYTH 3. The US has a liberal media.

MYTH 4. The US doesn’t need improvement compared to other countries; it is the greatest country in the world.

MYTH 5: The US government loves to help other countries


*Only 18% of Americans own passports and bother to travel outside of the US.
* 85% of US soldiers in Iraq believe that they are there to get revenge for 9/11.
* New international student enrollment in US grad schools has decreased by 6%, because of xenophobic post-9/11 US visa restrictions, jacked-up tuition fees and better educational opportunities in the EU and Asia. So no, not everyone wants to come here anymore, because it's become a land of incredibly limited opportunity, and we've lowered our educational standards.

With which I mean the concept of 'nothing' - if nothing exists, and therefore nothing does exist, not even nothing (aye..), does that frighten you?

Okay, abortion is banned. The death chamber is working at fever pitch. Religion is back in the classroom, courtroom and TV room and Darwin is, I dunno, erased? War is big, environment is too old school to matter, civil rights take a back seat...

Am I wrong? What would society be like with no liberals?

Are there things in revelations that sound like past reasons for Romes fall.

It would be pretty crafty for sholars to slip this under the Romans noses when their were creating the bible, made it out to be end of time instead.

This would've been good propaganda for the Christians of the time.

This guy I've been casually dating for about four months is pressuring me to be in a monogamous relationship with him. I have been up front with him since the beginning that I'm not ready for that. So...his new proposal is to give him a "partial commitment." What could this possibly mean?

Hey all, I am male, 18 years old and I study acting here in Los Angeles since I was 15. It's my dream to become an actor (screen). I am quite good looking, my height is 5'4" 1/2 (without any shoes and about 5'7 at the very most WITH shoes...), would you say I am short? Do I still have the potentiality to grow taller after 18, even few more inches? Do you think my height will influence the opportunities of being able to get acting jobs here in Hollywood? Serious roles, not a Gary Coleman or a Danny DaVito (with no offense to them...lol)

I've studied many years to come to this point and now at the thought that height could influence my future depresses me greatly. What do you people think? Thank you for taking time to read!

Mohammed could not make up his mind about Sodomy. He prohibits it on earth, but then he says that Muslims can enjoy homosexuality in Paradise. It is a well established fact that many famous Muslims were practicing homosexuals who looked towards the Koran to justify their actions. For example, Babar, the moghul king was madly in love with a young boy named Baburi. Kuttubuddin Aibak, another Muslim ruler of India used to dress up as a woman and dance in a vulgar manner.

Koran verses..
(Koran 76:19)
And round about them will serve boys of perpetual
freshness: if thou seest them, thou wouldst think
them scattered pearls.

(Koran 52:24)
Round about them will serve, to them, boys
(handsome) as pearls well-guarded.

(Koran 56:17)
Round about them will serve boys of perpetual
freshness.

Men can be seen holding boy's hands on the streets in Islamic countries, while their wives follow by a distance behind them. Boys being 12, 13 years in age.
