Does MJ distort reality ? Does it make you think things in your head that aren't true?

I have a question for you. What exactly do you do? I love sea life, but I feel that marine biology is all about spreadsheets, statistics, etc., not actually about observing the beauty that just is there. What do you have to say about it?

I have turned to the Bible and found the greatest gift. But I have a problem. How do I reveal this new found religiousity to my family and friends without turning them away. I know many are 'disapproving' of religious belief or dismiss them altogether.
How can I show my faith and keep my friends and family just the way it is now?

Don't tell me he did this accidentally it was totally premeditated and planned he even provided himself a cop out "I was quoting someone else" Whats his game????
Catholics; lets have none of your denial. Its not been "taken out of context", the quote you always re-regurgitate when you don't like the logical conclusion.
I know you recognize that I speak truth as I asked this question earlier and it was reported! A Catholics natural desire to censor anything that disagrees with them and suppress all alternative views never ceases to amaze me!

This is an answer to one of my questions:

"Its not about the creator so much as believing the bible stories, even the one about Jesus...especially"

So for your replies, please do not refer to Christianity and the Genesis account.

Here is the question, philosophically, many philosophers believe there has to be a First Cause or a Creator. A Creator would have to be the most logical and rational being. His drive for creation would come from passion or love.

People who are truly aligned with believing in a Creator are loving, reasonable, fact-based people. What is wrong with that?

Most women (the ones who are actually normal looking) look at fashion ads and adore them, but they think, "I won't look that good in the clothes," because we are not a size zero! Also, if you actually look at the ordering details at the bottom of the ad, it will usually say, "Sizes 0-6 available."

Spain recently rejected 30% of its models for its fashion week because they were too skinny. They gave them a BMI (Body mass index) and those who were under the healthy level of body fat were not allowed to be in the fashion show. They did this because they are sick of anorexic role models who are making their teenage girls develop eating disorders.

When will America adapt this attitude?

Did Muslims apologise when thousands of air passengers were put at risk of death by fellow Muslims?
Did Muslims apologise when over 200 people were killed in Mumbai?
Did Muslims apologise for 9/11? This list can go on and on.
They want apologies for someone quoting history.
They do this in a violent way. Their representatives come on TV and are seen to be so aroused. This proves how violence comes easily to these people.
Throughout history Islam has been spread by the sword.
The only people who deny this are Muslims. Why?
Guilt of the bad deed. This results in further violence.

Do Hindus say anything when pictures of their gods appear on shoes and on underwear? This is a peaceful religion.
Do Hindus say anything when hundreds have throats slit in Kashmir by the Jehadists/Terrorists?

Islam only claims to be peaceful. It is not peaceful in reality.
It is time Islam apologised to the rest of the world for its behaviour over the lat 1500 years.

As Pope Benedict XVI faces criticism from Muslim leaders for remarks made during a speech in Germany, the BBC's religious affairs correspondent, Rahul Tandon, looks at earlier views he expressed during his time as a cardinal.
This is not the first time Pope Benedict has been at the centre of criticism for his views on Islam.

Before becoming Pope, Cardinal Ratzinger, as he was known, was considered a theological conservative.

He appeared to be uncomfortable with Pope John Paul II's attempts to improve dialogue with the Islamic world. His predecessor was the first pontiff to step inside a mosque, during a visit to Syria in 2001.

During his time as a cardinal, Pope Benedict opposed Turkey's bid to join the European Union, saying it belonged to a different cultural sphere, adding that its admission would be a grave error against the tide of history.

And in 1996, he wrote that Islam had difficulty in adapting to modern life.

'New barbarism'

However, since his consecration, Pope Benedict has surprised many with his attempts to improve dialogue with the Muslim world. He is due to visit Turkey in November as part of that process.

But there have been signs of his earlier views.

Last year he accused Muslim leaders in Germany of failing to steer their youth from what he described as the darkness of a new barbarism.

Pope Benedict is under increasing pressure to clarify the remarks he made during his speech at Regensburg University.

For many, that will require a clarification of the relationship he wishes to develop between the Catholic Church and Islam

responce from Christians or people who say they know God. I've been homeless and no Christian helped only non-Christians. If my faith wasn't strong I would have left Christianity years ago with the amount people who are not Christ-Like. It amazes me.

See this link and read it there's only 1 answer: do you think Jesus would have said the same thing?

If our gov. can pull thier heads out of the *** and see what good can come from it. I know that is there is a small down side to it be coming legal, but the up side outweighs the down side. The thing is I live in montana where it is legal to grow hemp, but by the fed. laws the farmer can't grow a cash crop to pay their bill. They are stuck in to grow things that keeps them just afloat in the times. The gov. needs to see that there is a lot of good in the use of pot and hemp and they can make money on it if they use their heads wisly....
