Jesus planed it. he plained to get arrested. The finding that Jesus told Judas to betray him fits that. his Crucifixion to be later be let down and faking his death. to have his third and final act his fake resurrection.

20:1 Now very early on the first day of the week,1 while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene came to the tomb and saw that the stone had been moved away from the entrance.3 20:2 So she went running to Simon Peter and the other disciple whom Jesus loved and told them, “They have taken the Lord from the tomb, and we don’t know where they have put him!”

20:15 Jesus said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping? Who are you looking for?” Because she 21 thought he was the gardener, she said to him, “Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will take him.” 20:16 Jesus said to her, “Mary.” She22 turned and said to him in Aramaic,23 “Rabboni”24 25 20:17 Jesus replied,26 “Do not touch me, for I have not yet ascended to my Father. Go to my brothers

...and please don't tell me about events that supposedly happened 2 to 6 thousand years ago. If He exists why would God not make himself known to modern man? Would he rather billions of good people go to hell than make himself known?

According to Hindu mythology, an elephants head was attached to the divine body of Lord Shiva's son and Lord Ganesha came into being? What is the spritual significance of this story? Is there some inner meaning to it? Are there any further details in mythology?

Have you ever had the very strong feeling that you are connected to someone that you haven't spoken to for a while, someone you have been close to? You suddenly get a feeling that they are thinking of you and the air space between you is different and charged with them. Sometimes they phone or e-mail you the same week, but sometimes you are simply convinced that you are on their mind...Do you think that we can connect through thought?

Atheists keep claiming they are experts at logic. I thought I'd give them a little test. The point isn't to answer whether the question is historically or scientifically true, but only whether it is logically true. Prove your answer using symbolic logic.

I'll even help. Here's how to start.

Let p = Confucius was born in Texas.

Let q = We are all vampires.

Let r = p --> q

Given that p is false, is r true or false?

Hi all . 26 male here.American born of mexican parents. living here 26 years and being an adult now, supposedly i would be good at speaking like many of you out there. but i'm not, I'm not because 1.do't have friends, don't talk since was child 2. i still don't 3. my mind seems slow to process language. Perhaps too ,i'm not good english, because i'm not good at spanish. spanish was my mother tongue, but i don't even speak it well. So, i'm trying to improve my english by learning words and idioms, i really don't know alot of stuff that other people my age know. But thing is, my parents and my cousin, keep saying "Stop saying that, YOU"RE GOOD AT ENGLISH AND SPANISH".. I feel i'm not, and when my cusin who just came from mexico asks me things about english.. i'm to the point now that i just shrug my shoulders and say " i don't know ,ask my sister's husband( he's white american)" My english keeps being simple and that's about all i can speak, even though i've been here for years.

Ya know what really bothers me? Wise *** answers to nice people's questions about their family. Like get over it. Why do
they attack? For the 2 points? Just to make ones self look like a bad ***? Funny how people who insult others
can ONLY do it by the means of sitting in front of a computer. Out in public you tremble and squrm since you do not have the guts to be a smart *** to those people. I can take a good beating but I can give an even better one. Oh and I know I'll be reported or have a violation because those people are scared little tiny people who can't do anything but sit there and go "2 points" Oh I guess that makes you God when you do that. Well go ahead and hit me with all you got cause if we met in person things would be a hell of a lot different. The power to report me and say two points Oh my how I tremble........NOT You look like fools, little tiny pitiful fools. I think I will go laugh at you all now and even harder whe I see those big bad *** respones. LOL LOL

In Judges (11:29-11:39) one of the Judges, Jephthah, strikes a deal with God.

God will help Jephthah defeat the Ammonite tribe. In return Jephthah will sacrifice the first thing that comes to meet him when he arrives home. God allowed Jepthah "a great slaughter" of the Ammonites.

When he gets home to keep his end of the bargain he is greeted by his innocent virgin daughter. Being a good godly chap, Jephthah proceeds do with her according to his vow, and kills her and offers her as a burnt offering. God makes no particular comment, and doesn't intercede as he did earlier with Abraham and Isaac.

Nice God, that Yahweh?

Can anyone explain to me the justification of this behaviour from an all-knowing, all-good, all-powerful God who would have known that Jephthah's poor daughter would be the one to meet him when he got home?

(and God is God and everything God does is by definition right and good is NOT a justification)

Across America, many local government meetings begin with public prayers but a Tampa city council meeting recently started out with members leaving because of the invocation.

Atheist Michael Harvey was about to give the invocation at a Tampa City Council meeting when some members became angry. A debate continued for nearly 30 minutes until three members walked out.

Mary Alvarez left saying she shouldn't have to "listen to an atheist sit here and tell me what I should or should not believe in."

Tampa atheists were granted permission to speak during the invocation after scolding the council for praying to "invisible men in the sky."

Harvey doesn't believe in God so praying for civic wisdom for public servants, the whole idea behind any invocation, was impossible.

Have we, as a society, learned that there was during the 1930s and 1940s, concentration camps set up in Germany, where over 12 million human beings were executed, and we know this from the tens of thousands of survivor stories,

Have we as a society learned this and how to avoid it from happening again, or will we suffer the propoganda of hate and fear in this century.

Who will take a stand against hate?

Anything I say that pro black, I think TO is an awesome football player and all I see is white analysts dissing him constantly, I can understant a few time but every game even if philly or dallas isn't playing, they have to bring Him up it's irratating. Micheal Irving didn't diss him, stewart scott didn't diss him, it just seems like as soon as I root for a black guy that not liked then I becom a racist.

I like the BET channel I'm a racist
I thought Kobe was Innocent, I'm a racist
I like Terrell Owens I'm a racist
I say the word "White People" I'm a racist
Chill out, I'm not a racist but there are things that go on that I don't agree with. That doens't mean I hate white people in my opinion

Ok...my mom had a Packer player come in to the restaurant she works at Saturday night with the coaches from the high school he went to (the player is Kevin Barry...you have probably never heard of him...i only know who he is because i went to school with him). After all the coaches ordered she kept checking to make sure he didnt want any thing, but after the kitchen closed he said he wanted something...so they re opened the kitchen so he could order food...she ended up sitting ther for 2 hours after they closed waiting for him to pay for his dinner then he left a 75 cent tip!!! she couldnt believe it! so is it just ok for these guys not to tip???...i guess she should have been happy he paid for his food! and dont say that the service was bad because it wanst ... the bartenders were as stunned as she was...she didnt expect a huge tip but at least average!

Let's say the entire sky changed to look like a giant face and a huge booming face said "I am your God... believe in me or perish"

I sure as hell would convert instantly.

Yet he does not do this. Supposedly he loves us and wants us to find him... but is unwillingly to do anything to prove his existance. He would rather attempt to see if we can find him on our own and if we can't... he says TO HELL WITH THEM..... that's not a sign of love.

Let's put it this way, if you had all the power in the universe and to save millions and millions of people from an eternity in hell, all you had to do was take 10 seconds and become a huge booming face in the sky and shout to the entire world you were God, would you not do this?
