Yahoo! says report abuse, and when I first got on I saw that and so I told them that my wife had locked me in the basement and was feeding me canteloup cut into tiny squares with a plastic fork on the side, and they acted like they didn't even care. I had a computer down there and was telling them about my captivity.

Come to find out, what they are looking for is silly abuse. Months later I've been reported for stuff I didn't even know I did. I can't even count all the Abuse Notifications I received, and for what?
Just the other day they charged me in Yahoo! Abuse Court with making an answer that they said was not an answer.

Found a thing in my email saying my answer had been selected as Best Answer; and going to look at it, I discovered the question had been removed by Yahoo! because supposedly there was abuse in the question, in other words I didn't get my ten points cause of abuse committed by someone else.

Why not just let "abuse" happen and not worry about it?

You're sitting at home, pissed because you're feeling sick. You're supposed to be going on vacation but you're too sick to go now, so you can't get on your flight. Later that day you find out the flight you were supposed to go on was in a terrible car crash.

You praise the event as a miracle from God by making you sick so you couldn't go on the trip. What do you think the people who got on the plane would have called your "miracle"?

* July 27, 1996- Christian Identity terrorist Eric Robert Rudolph bombs Centennial Olympic Park. Kills 1, wounds 111.
* 1983- Posse Comitatus militia member Gordon Kahl kills two Federal marshals in North Dakota. Three others are wounded.
* 1978- Christian cult "the Peoples' Temple" leader Jim Jones orchestrates the death of 913 people with cyanide-laced Kool Aid. People trying to escape the compound are shot.
* 1969-2001- over 3000 people are killed in Ireland as a result of bombings and other violent acts between Catholics and Protestants. More than 1800 of those killed in "The Troubles" are civilians.

There are others, but these examples where easiest to copy and paste :P but still Christian terrorism against abortion clinics goes on even today?

Why don't we hear any outcry from the 90% of so called peaceful Muslims about people like Osama, and these radical groups who claim to be Muslims. We see people on the news daily be-heading and killing innocent people in the name of Allah and yet I never hear OutCry from the 90% who claim to be peaceful.
And my second question would be Why do 90% of Muslims sit back and watch as Radicals in there religion Destroy it in the eyes of the rest of the world?

I ask because of all their talk of "One world governments" and the "New world order". Is a continual state of distrust and fear of other societies a requirement for the Christian faith? Other than everyone on the planet converting to Christianity, how do they expect to ever achieve peace?

I have read both the Holy Bible and Anton LaVey's "The Satanic Bible", You Americans are more in line with Anton LaVey's Satanic beliefs than that of a Christian nation. America is shameful, true Christians don't drunk, use drugs, violate women, encourage homosexual acts or encourage abortion. Your Jesus Christ will turn his back on America, because you as a nation rejects him and accepts satan. America isn't the Great Satan, America accepted Satan.

I am an athlete so staying at the top of my shape is really important for me. One way I know to control my urge is not to masturbate for 2 weeks, after that, it gets easy. But I don't know if that is healthy. Do you think not masturbating might be bad? Is there anyother way?

In this question: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/?qid=20060917110738AAP3GTC&r=w&pa=FZptHWf.BGRX3OFMhDxQUUUSltt_MVmaYtZB7QJb6ViW1WZrPA--#NbUvWjK6VzL6imkocwnA Mobjob stated that Protestants don't believe that Mary was a virgin. Most Protestant churches believe Mary was a virgin when she conceived Christ, and that Joseph, her husband, did not know her physcally during her pregnancy, but they did have sex after Mary was 'clean' and together had children.

Not really a question, but wanted to refute Mobjob and he doesn't have a way to contact.

I recently cleaned my room and can't find my notebook with two of my sunset poems I wrote earlier this year. I haven't had a chance to type it in my WP document for safe keeping. I did look there and can't find it. I've cleaned my room and still can't find it, fearing that page fallen out and accidentally thrown out by mistake awhile ago. I really need St. Anthony's help. Has it worked for you? Will it work for me in helping me find it among other things?

Please answer intellectually and factually with regards to your own religions. I won't be convinced if the answer is just blind faith without reasoning. If it makes sense, then I 'll agree. Thanks!

p/s: When answering, please state your religion and then answer the two questions.

Should'nt Buddhist monks in their Shaolin temples and Buddhist-converts be honing their kung-fu for a showdown with Islamists? If Islam has the suicide bombers, Buddhism has kung-fu... i think that's a good match-up, dont you agree?

Does anyone remember the year that Jesus was changed to the status of God?

I think it was in the 1200s but I do not recall. Previous to this wasn't he considered just the son of God?
