Why do all thoes Biologist call it a THEORY, if its a proven fact, because a theory is a hypothetical idea.
Why do they keep bringin out the next paper that says they've found the proof, if they already have the proof?
Can it be proven in a lab? NO
Are there absolutes? NO
How many assumptions do you need to make inorder for it to be true? Way, way too many.
When you start making assumptions, the science ceases to exist therefore evolution is a THEORY, not fact.

Proverbs 21:25

The sluggard's craving will be the death of him, because his hands refuse to work.

Proverbs 6: 9-11

How long will you lie there, you sluggard? When will you get up from your sleep? A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest- and poverty will come on you like a bandit and scarcity like an armed man.

Would Jesus have quit his carpenter job and got 'free money' if the government back then gave out welfare and food stamps? SERIOUS QUESTION THX :o}

In response to another question that I asked earlier today, a lot of replies to that question have given me another set of questions to ask.

Jesus was supposedly in existance before his birth and since the beginning of time. Ok. This is why this doesn't make any sense whatsoever. Throughout the old testament there is mention of a few of heavens inhabitants. The Devil, God, Michael the Angel, the Angel of death, other angels etc. Yet, there is no mention of God having a son or that son living in heaven and taking part in any of the happenings on heaven and earth. Am I to think that the son of God basically twiddled his thumbs in heaven, not doing anything worth mentionning until he was born and then died? Also, if Jesus was alive before he was born this brings up another question.

In the old testament, they said Jesus's name was going to be Immanuel... they didn't know his correct name before?

I just read the following [quoted below from a Yahoo news story] and would like to know how tolerance for gays causes "attacks" on religious "freedom":

By expanding the discussion from marriage to religious expression, social conservatives say they will reconnect with religious voters and religious leaders who don't necessarily view same-sex unions as a threat. "There are a number of pastors that said, 'Look, we don't get involved in politics, I'm not going to get involved in this issue, I just want to preach the gospel,'" said Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council. "When they realize their ability to preach the gospel may very well be at stake, they may reconsider their involvement." ...>

I'm orginally from MS living in Atlanta. I asked this guy what did his conferderate flag mean to him. He told me that he liked the colors and it represented him as a rebel. Umm, yeah right. Why do some people use conferdate flags as decals for their cars and their clothes. I just don't get it. Why are you stil waving these flags? The south LOST! Take the flag away. By being a black female, its very offensive.

I know the body is a dead corpse but what happens to our essence or soul?

2006-09-14 07:36:57 · 17 answers · asked by J S 1 in Religion & Spirituality

a) we have to develop our own philosophy of life and not have it handed down by our parents, neighbors or cult leaders

b) we accept that we are not going to live forever.

Seems to me that Christianity is the real cop-out

Some people simply do not have the skills to pass a job interview and/or to get a job...they should not have to be harrassed. Honestly, some people can't learn the skills needed either.

I'm sure none of you hardcore Christins will. No you'll probably freak out. But shouldn't everyone, even the son of God, know what love feels like? If it wasn't for that fact that I would be scared of people killing me I might actually try writing a FICTION book about it.

If God were truly omnipotent in an absolute and unlimited sense, then God could be capable of both existing and not existing at the same time, right?

I have been doing some research on spirit guides (or whatever you prefer to call them) and I was wondering how I could find out what my guide is and how I can reach it/ them. I have searched online, but alot of the things I found were vague or didn't work. I understand that a guide won't show itself to me right away.

How will I be able to tell when its there?

Can I communicate with it through meditation, lucid dreaming, astral projection, or some other method? If so, how?

Again, how will I know what it is? I have done tests, and a majority said dragon or dog.

Please post websites and books that have useful information (preferably websites. I am broke and can't afford books ;) )

If you would like me to add more details IM me, e-mail me, or just ask in your post and I will add more.

NOTE: Please do not answer if you do not believe in guides. I do not want mean remarks about my eternal soul or my mind. PLEASE DO NOT POST PRAYER/ SCRIPTURE!!!
