This question includes the killing of animals for food. For me every meal i eat which forgoes the end result of a slaughtered animal is a spiritual event. In the past in certain areas of the world such an act was not possible without the probability of forfeiting ones life.

Yet we live in such a day and age that if we merely wished we can not only spare another beings life, but do so healthier than if we did not. This is what I call a luxury and a blessing. I hope more people will realize this act of daily mercy which only serves to increase our spiritual practice.

The famous historian Shri P.N. Oak has proven that Taj Mahal is actually Tejo Mahalaya-- a shiv temple-palace. His work was published in 1965 in the book, Taj Mahal - The True Story. However, we have not heard much about it because it was banned by Congress government of Bharat.

After reading Shri Oak's work which provides more than adequate evidence to prove that Taj Mahal is indeed Tejo Mahalaya, one has to wonder if the government of Bharat has been full of traitors for the past 50 years! Because to ban such a book which states only the truth is surely a crime against our great nation of Bharat.

The most valuable evidence of all that Tejo Mahalaya is not an Islamic building is in the Badshahnama which contains the history of the first twenty years of Shah Jahan's reign. The writer Abdul Hamid has stated that Taj Mahal is a temple-palace taken from Jaipur's Maharaja Jaisingh.

He does it almost every night. We called the police. But they said it wasn't indecent exposure, because he had his genitals covered with a jock strap. We talked to the minister, but he denies it ever happens.

this is a carry on question from the one earlier about protesters storming a gay wedding, answer this when have you ever heard of a pagan, wiccan, bhuddist storming a christian ceremony, yet you think its your right to infringe our ceremonies and rites and spoil things for us, telling us how to run our lives.

I perasonally belive in election, that God elected us before the foundation of the earth and that we have no say in being saved but it is all Gods doing. For all you people(and i dont mean this in a negative way so dont get defensive or anything) who believe that we have to accept Jesus into our hearts, can you give me references that tell us that, and can you tell me why you believe that? thanks.

the story of the "son" (or sun) dying on the cross is derived from ancient astral theology: the symbol for the zodiac is a circle on a cross (the circle represents the sun, the cross represents the four seasons). on the 22nd of december, the winter solstice occurs- this is the day the sun is out for the least amount of time (the sumerians considered it "dead") it rises on the same longitude for 2 days, and on the third day, it resumes it's cycle (or is born/re-born, after 3 days). 3 days after dec 22, of course is the day that jesus was supposedly born (christmas).

hence, the story of jesus being born on the 25th, and the story about jesus dying on the cross and being resurrected after three days.

sources: the research of jordan maxwell, michael tsarion, david icke, zecharia sitchin (and many others); the bible; numerous sumerian, phoenician, hebrew, tibetan, mayan, aztec, and just about any other ancient society's texts.

Why some celebrities are always called gay? Where is the connection? Why can't they just be judge on their character instead of their sexual orientation? At the end of the day, I would rather be a rich gay dude than a homeless straight dude. Do u agree? If u don't agree, why is the big deal about people sexual preference unless u were interested in them sexually because knowing or not knowing will be not benefit you in any way.

Why are so many stories in erotica books about S&M, fetishes, or just generally freaky? I just want normal lesbian sex. I know that covers a big range, but that is my point exactly. I hate starting a story and finding out it is about stuff that totally turns me off. Can't all the S&M be in its own book? I read erotica to be turned on, not to thumb through picking out the 3 stories that are not bizarre.

I think not. If someone is raised in a religion, its like they inherit it. And I think that its kind of wrong to indoctrinate people before they even have the mental capacity to understand what they're being taught. A 3 year old has no capacity for existential thought and will beleive in god just because their parents tell them to. But someone's faith can have a major impact of their worlview, so shouldn't that choice be put off until the person has a well developed ability for abstract and existential thought, which usually doesn't happen until the teen years?
