ok, so maybe you people thought my last question was a little harsh, and in which I will be back peddling for saying it in a harsh way, but not for what I said. You cna be entitled to your own opinion, I know that, but she was trying to State a FACT, which just simply wasn't true. You people can say the bible isn't real, and that you can disprove it, well then I feel sorry for you, and I'll pray for you. God loves you all. So my question.... is Where is the line where opinion meets fact? I mean honestly people, I wan't dissing the girl, she could be the sweetest girl in the world, and the only thing I'm talking about is what she had to say. And for all of you who think that I have more important things to concentrate, STOP being such hypocrates..... everyone has problems right? And we ALL post them online, and well all answer other people's problems, so don't accuse me for doing something wrong when you all do it as well. Love, PEACE, kindess. God Bless.

I am fairly new to Yahoo Q&A and this is a whole new world for me....I didn't even know this kind of bantering went on between believers and non-believers until I accidentally accessed it while I was checking my email.

I am technically not on either side because, although I believe in Christ, I don't call myself a Christian; I truly believe that God wanted me out of the pollution of the church.

I admire qualities of both the non-believers and the believers....I am impressed with the knowledge, articulation, and open-mindedness of the non-believers, and I love the child-like hearts of a believer, who can believe that there is something bigger than themselves.

I notice that a lot of jousting is made toward the Christian, and I seriously don't believe that it is intended to strike the child-like heart of the person.

What I would like to ask Christians is, do you think that some of this could be writing on the wall, so to speak, to help you to see that maybe things aren't quite right?

Why is it when we see quistions from the opposite faith or beliefs we jump in and give an answer just to aggrivate the asker? There is no point in being mean and spiteful. Isnt there a better way to go about it? Why must we quistion each and every faith? The truth is if you were strong and true to your own faith you wouldnt be asking about others to start with? RIGHT?

I've seen WAY too many questions about guys' things and women's feelings about their bodies. Nudity questions are one thing, but perverted porno qs are just wasting web space.

I simply asked whether or not people are here to learn anything, or if it's about touting your own faith? What is so hypocritical of asking a much needed question about this whole forum?

It's been a long time now since the first 'car' been invented in Britain, so that people could move or go easily, and transporting almost all neccesity to continue on of this Life, but how this transportation could've impact to the Religions,whatever that would be, Say I'd like to go to Afrika learing or just seeing what they have been doing, in such a manner that would be openly seen by others, could that caused anything bad ? Knowing that the Car,or transportation means I'd like to get on is,say Japanese made or French,which aren't Muslim or Catholics, could be harmfull ?

I mean really. Your 'proof' is based on 'information' from right wing think tanks, and is contradicted by every respected scientist on the planet. Evolution actually happens, please read a book on the subject, I'd recommend 'climbing mount improbable', or the 'selfish gene', (because, admittedly the origin of species is a little dry).
You come up with these elaborate metaphors to prove your point. But here's the thing. If any of you actually, I mean really understood the theory of evolution (and yes it is a theory, but unlike creationism it has the backing of a hell of allot of actual facts) you wouldn't be able to reject it so easily.
The theory of evolution is one of the most exquisitely crafted theories ever. Period. It draws on the fossil record, geography, genetics, almost every aspect of biology, as well as statistics, and years of carefully documented research and insight by some of the greatest minds ever.

I'm just wondering: Do you have a reason?

A true God is allways visible and hides from no one. A true God takes charge over all that is his. A true God does everything and needs no one else or thing to do for him. Where is the god of the Jews? We want to see him and meet him. Lets look at it logically. Moses was the #1 sorcerer in Egypt. He led the Jews out of Egypt and used his knowledge of sorcery to create a new nation. Everything about the bible revolves around Moses. Moses gave them the 10 commandments. Moses led them to a new land. Moses just used his knowledge or sorcery to lead his people else where. Today what most doctors or scientists practice at that time would be known as sorcery. So where is God?? Oh God where are you hiding. Peek a booo where are you? Are we playing hiding go seeeeeeek? When will the game end?? We and I mean Quatrillions to infinity across the universe would like to meet you. Or are you like the infamous Santa Clause that parents say to there children ""Be bad and Santa bring you no toys"".

I always wondered about this growing up and seeing pictures like this on some cartoons I use to watch. How did this come about and what does it represent. Did this happen some kind of way in ancient times?

Have you visited the open house tour? What did you think of it? Are you a member of that church? What comments do you have about visiting there, generally? Did it change your views or knowledge about that church/religion before and after your visit?

OK so im supposed to translate this letter aboout Mnt. Vesuvius by Pliny. Im almost done with the letter but i have a few paragraphs that i just cant completly figure out...do you know what any os the lines mean???


iubet naves parari; mihi copiam eundi facit. respondi estudere me malle. tum accipit litteras cuiusdam muliers periculo territae. navem ascendit ut non illi mulieri modo sed multis auxilium ferret. properat illuc unde alii fugiunt rectunque cursum in periculum tenet, tam solutus timore ut omina visa enotaret.

iam navibus cinis densior incindebat, iam pumices etiam nigrique lapides. c*um gubernator moneret ut retro flecteret, "fortes," inquit, "fortuna iuvat." udi ad litus venit, amicum vidit. eum territur hortatur. tum in balneum it et postea ad cenam, aut hilaris similis hilari.

***If youknow that meaning of ny of the sentences, plz specify which one(s) it is and write it...thx for ur help!
