Of course it was the Lord who told him to do this so I guess he was only following the will of God.

While I was there I saw a lot of signs, advertisements, and television shows in English or at least with English subtitles. How many people there speak English out of the 54 million population? I was under the impression it was all either Bahasa Malay or Chinese Mandarin...

Religious fundamentalism relies on a fundamental lack of knowledge of science and of history. The success of this ideology must be blamed on the US educational system, which is clearly failing the country.

What is that has allowed this state of affairs to occur?

Is it perhaps the prevalence of home schooling, where children can be taught by the unqualified and the ignorant?

The 3 wisemen followed a bright star to where Jesus was to be born. (spaceship?)

Jesus was an immaculate conception (Was mary Abducted?)

Jesus first 30+ years is a mystery as if he walked right out of the woods.

Some areas in the bible use Metaphors for the holy spirit that eerily sound like a spaceship.

Jesus was resposible for many miracles (Water in to wine etc.)
Perhaps these were the works from higher tecnology or mental acuity?

Offer your thoughts, this is theoretical, Lets have some fun :)

Which Christian congregation or denomination should I join if all claim to teach the truth, and they all support their doctrines and teachings with the Bible?. What would be your advice?. Please if you are not a Christian, refrain from answering and don't waist your time

Until the media and technology was able to give us instantaneous communication - it was not possible for the notion of celebrity or celebrity culture that is so embraced today to exist..

In a market economy it is clearly financially driven yet we Joe Public seem to have an almost insatiable appetite for glossy mags/hollywood news etc etc

Personally I scratch my head at this phenomenon but do note that something must clearly be distinctive about our society when the likes of Posh/Becks or Brad and Angelina are more familiar to all of us than the families next door..

These people are ultimately often just people - not necessarily bright, or funny or kind or altruistic either.. they are often good at entertaining but would probably not have the knowledge to perform key hole surgery to save someone's life or the selflessness needed to dedicated themselves to say devoting their life to saving poor children..

So why the adoration? Shallow and misplaced in my view..

I grauated from school a year early and not starting college until next year. I'm watching a farm for some friends that are out of the country, there are no towns around and I have no friends this far from home.

They have some cows, and chickens does anyone know how to milk a cow or find chicken eggs ?

I'm not for sure if they are milk cows, I thought all cows were milk cows. I grauated from school a year early and not starting college until next year.

They have a rifle here, my grandfather taught me how to target shoot and got me a hunting license. I've never killed an animal before but my grandmother used to make the worlds best rabbit stew. They have rabbits on the farm. I don't know how I would feel about shooting a rabbit, but I love rabbit stew. Does anyone have a recipe for rabbit stew, or would I feel bad after shooting one? I also found hidden, bottle of wine, I took wine in communion and it made me feel good, should I try a few sips before going rabbit hunting?

I have light baby fuzz on my torso and sometimes I like to shave it off to accentuate my muscules. Is this a bad thing? Should I stop? Does it look good or bad on someone like me? i know bodybuilders do it, but should I? Also, when I go shirtless, I like to wear my pants kinda low with the tops of my boxers showing. Is this cool or not?

....ejaculaatory fluid makes an excellent past? After our make-up sex, I went to make macaroni pictures and found I was out of glue. Much to my surprise my husbands' (the recently aborted cat-man-beast fetus) semen works quite well!

It may not have anything to do with religion or spirituality, but since I see the letters "CPT" in this section the most, I figured I would ask it here. Sorry for my stupidity.

Many of the depictions of older women can be demeaning whereas younger women are often revered.. News presenters for example are usually a studious/serious man often middle aged or older coupled with a glamorous young corrected/slim/attractive female..

Many other examples - such as Mother-In-Law jokes, older women being ommited from many TV shows unless they LOOK young etc..

Is this a cultural thing or something which derives from biological drives and given cultural expression - ie society finds fertile looking women most appealling?
