Do both the father & mother have to be there (what if one is deceased).

Also can a grandparent (or 2) take the infant (with permission) to be baptized if the parents cannot? Thank you

What do you think the world might have been like today, if the Internet hadn't been created yet, if ever?

I should have been more clear when asking that last question:
Nickname devlsadvoct? Do we really want info. from this person?

I just wanted to emfisize on this comment:
"seem to spend 1/2 of my time on YA! dispelling myths / outright lies regarding science and evolution. It's a dirty job, but someone has to do it!"

No I am not at all intimidated by his questions or comments. For those who believe that there is more evidence to evolution than there is to back up the God of the Holy Bible you obviously have not done your research or you are just in denial. The truth of God is increased through your lie to His glory. Evolution is one of the biggest lies ever told about history. If anyone would like to publically state the evidences to the inaccuracey of the "religion" of evolution and the evidence of the accuracy of the Holy Bible please feel free to right back.

Women want equal rights, men should watch children and do dishes, ect. but yet when it comes to men should hold open doors for women, walk near the curb of the street, stand up for a women if there is no empty seat on the bus, and what not. If they want to be equal shouldnt they do that for men as well?

I am a bi female with very little past exposure to gay culture. I had a few close friends in high school who were gay, but that has been 15 years ago. I have on occasion attended activities held by the nearest Lavender Women’s group, but my schedule does not allow very active participation. Mainstream media and entertainment have a lot to say about GLBT culture, but the people I know do not fit the stereotype (butch, flaming, flamboyant, lisping) as portrayed by these.

What I am wondering is, whether you are gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender, do you act in a manner that comes completely naturally to you or do you think society’s opinions, images, and biases concerning gay culture have any impact (for better or worse) on how you act?

"The beauty of religious mania is that it has the power to explain everything. Once God (or Satan) is accepted as the first cause of everything which happens in the mortal world, nothing is left to chance...logic can be happily tossed out the window."
[Stephen King]
"You see, one thing is, I can live with doubt and uncertainty and not knowing. I think it's much more interesting to live not knowing than to have answers which might be wrong. I have approximate answers and possible beliefs and different degrees of uncertainty about different things, but I am not absolutely sure of anything and there are many things I don't know anything about, such as whether it means anything to ask why we're here... I don't have to know an answer. I don't feel frightened not knowing things, by being lost in a mysterious universe without any purpose, which is the way it really is as far as I can tell. It doesn't frighten me."
[Richard P. Feynman, "Genius, the life and science"]

If you believe in God... where did it come from, if you believe in the big bang or something similar, surely some matter would have been needed, where did that come from?

1 Cor 13:4-5 - Love is patient (Ps 7:11 - God is angry with the wicked every day. Ps 2:12 - Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little.), love is kind, it does not envy (Deut 4:24 - For the Lord your God is a devouring fire, a jealous God.), it does not boast, it is not proud (Job 41:34 - He beholdeth all high things: he is a king over all the children of pride.), it is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered (Ps 2:12 again), it keeps no record of wrongs (Deut 5:9 - for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me). Could a xian please explain this?
