These brave Women and Men sacrafice their lives everyday for us... So that Americans can have the liberty to walk down our streets... without bombs and rifles being fired around our babies. I pray for their well being.... They get up everyday away from the comforts of home and family and friends who love them for us! Many dont even agree with why they are where they are but the continue to press on. Aside from that do any of you salute the veterans that we have here in America? Whether they went into war or not they submitted themselves for us. And when they come home from tours alot of us treat them like crap... My grandpa fought in Vietnam...and he has post traumatic syndrome and no body cares...Im not coming down on anyone but I hope that those of us who dont salute our veterans think about the liberty they risk their lives for. FREEDOM is Not FREE!

My issue is, though, is that I'm gay and as of late, I've heard so much hatred about the gay community almost as soon as I've converted. I went from a religion that it was alright and good to be yourself and be open and gay if you are gay, but I'm hearing this like "Ban Wal-Mart because it's an abonination due to them supporting gays" (not like most any other corporation doesn't support us anyway pfft). Was thinking, maybe I should reject Jesus because of his people. After all, I don't want to go to a church that doesn't like me. I've always thought it was, "Love the sinner, not the sin" not "hate the sinner because they sin". Everyone sins, end done deal, we're human and were meant to make mistakes. Should I just find a better church somewhere or should I just leave the Christian faith like I've been seriously thinking about?

I'm interested in the history and realize strong religious views are involved.
When / how did the Islamic world gain control of what Jews refer to as their holy land?
When and why is it considered holy to them?

Any references available online would be appreciated.

I mean it's what's inside that counts right? Rarely do you see an ugly with a pretty. In a world created by God, this seems kind of irrational. Turns out, it doesn't matter what's inside if you're ugly. People judge you based on looks. Ugly people get screwed no matter what's on the inside. Do you think God would make a world like this? I think science and evolution explain people being mean to others a lot better than the Bible does.

I've seen dog meat restaurants in China (apparently black ones taste better!), but most people in the West feel repulsed at the thought of eating dog. Yet, we eat cows that are sacred animals in India and Sri Lanka.

Is life about, learning from our mistakes?
Is it all about learning from mistakes?
Sometimes when I'm alone, I think to myself. "What am I doing here? How did I get here? And, What was my purpose for life?" Does that ever come to your mind?

And proceed to say things about "God saving us" and praying for our souls? Especially when the occasion doesn't call for it, or they answer with a "you need help" attitude? Some on here have even resorted to just gay-bashing us. I really want to know why? No hateful answers either people!

If there is know hell for the non believers after they die, what does this mean

Luke 16;24

And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Laz'-a-rus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.

Then what does Gnashing of Teeth mean, if there not a reall Hell to pay with suffering?

For example....Nearly all of the millions of people in Iran are muslim. However, If one of their babies was somehow adopted and moved to the U.S. to be raised by southern babtists....there is a very strong chance that the child would grow up to be a babtist. Very few people have actually studied all religions before making a decision. I find it disturbing that so many people follow and defend their religion not because they studied, researched and made a choice, but because they were indoctrinated.

Ok, here's my story. i put in here because i want to know someone else's opinion.
When was a little girl i used to play "Wife and husband" with my best female friend... i played the husband, lol. I always thought it was pretty normal, it was just a game, we even kissed and everything. Sometimes i used to go to pee like a boy, lol... i played with dolls but i enjoyed more making a ride in my little motocycle... when i was in 5th grade i fell in love with this girl who was my classmate back then, but she never realized about my feelings about her, then i forgot about her and i decided to hide everything relationed with my "lesbian side"... at the age of 13 i started dating with guys, but i never enjoyed as i would have enjoyed with a girl even i felt attracted by them... then when i turned 14 i met a girl who i fell in love with, she helped me out to accept my sexual tendences but i'm still not ten per cent sure... i'm kinda scared about that, do you think i'm a truly lesbian?

About 75% of the human genome consists of useless junk that can't be used for building proteins because it is missing key sections. The prevailing theory among biologists is that these pseudo-genes are the result of RNA transcription errors - the natural product of our imperfect gene copying mechanism making many copies over many millions of years.
The chances of getting that many errors in the past 6,000 years is about the same as the chances of a new species of turkey evolving in time for Thanksgiving.

So I'm wondering, since you know better than any biologist how life emerged: Why did God, who makes no mistakes, create Adam with all this useless crap in his DNA? Was it another way of "testing our faith", just like those phony dinosaur bones?

Since some Arab influence rubbed off on the Spanish over the several-hundred year occupation, it only seems logical that there would be intermarrying.
