Is he feeling more secure now?

I know he is still sending floods to New Orleans, tsunamis to the Philippines, and Muslims to New York, Spain, London etc., but these are mass tests, rather than individual ones as in the past.

Why does the KJV have more statements/words than other Protestant Bibles?

Compare 1 John 5:7 in the NIV and the KJV and you will see that they don't match.

Here is the online comparison:

Compare the KJV with the Greek text and you will see that the KJV has more words than the Greek text.

So why does the KJV have additional words??

Pretty much all Christians would rather go to Heaven even if their family was burning in Hell...what does that say? You guys have no sense of character just like Abraham.

I believe most men keep beard because they want to avoid the daily shaving fatigue, Thus they save time and money as well.

Uncomplimentary comments are made every day about Catholics, Christians and Jews, but they don't go out and bomb, kill and injure those affiliated with the comments. However, the Muslims seem to always react in a violent manner at even the most casual comments about their religion, which I believe only proves the Pope was truthful in his statement. What do you think?

He made animal sacrifices for all of his children on an alter for God to watch over his kids. The devil was forbidded to come near his children because God would not let him. In these times we can't do that but we can place our hands on our children and pray for them. would you do that for your kids?

I am the co-president of a great club in my high school called "Smile Train", which is an extension of the organization itself. I was just looking for ideas, because our club, though growing larger slowly, is still small and sometimes the senior members (all seven or eight of us) have a hard time thinking of fundraising ideas for our little club. Most of the proceeds have to go to the organization (okay, all of them- I still have to check up on that) and we just really want to make a big difference on the school community and the town we live in. Thanks for any suggestions!

I am looking for someone to let me know how could prophet Muhammed make his living after his migrating to Medina. I know that he was a trader before his marriage and then he married a wealthy woman. My question is about after his marriage. Did he continue working after his marriage? and also after his migrating to Medina? Is it true that after his migration he made his living ONLY from the lootings he got during his wars?

Terrorism is derived from terror. Terror means to frighten. All the religions frighten the people from the fire of the hell and then ask the people to follow that religion, if they want to save them from the fire of the hell. Does this not mean that all the religions are terrorism? (Terrorists also frighten the people and then want them to do what they like)

Curious as I grew up in 60's/70's regularly seeing women in their natural unshaven state + didn't realise women did shave when I was at primary school. At uni it was common (to be unshaven) + many European women didn't seem to shave. Yet in last 15 years or so it seems as though all women, unless they have some near invisible hairs, remove their leg/pit hair. These days inreasing numbers of women also removing arm/pubic hair too. Personally I've never understood the hairless obsession + wonder if there are women who feel similarly + happy to live with their natural fuzz?

I have seen a few answerers on this thread http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AnYqGNsPxgCTGy5Yt3bT5DLsy6IX?qid=20060917094944AAcNWC4 namely chevailier and smileycat, assume that the act of dancing is akin to being like a prostitute. Why do you Muslim people assume that having fun and expressing joy or celebration through dancing is like being a prostitute? This makes no sense, and I really would like to know where you get these notions from. I like to dance, matter of fact, I went out dancing last night with my friends. I accepted no money for sex, and my husband was at home with the kids while I enjoyed a night out. Am I a prostitute now according to Islam? Well, I'm one broke hoe, I didn't get any johns or any cash last night. Just a hangover and sore feet from dancing and drinking with my girls.

I think of Galileo, Darwin, and Hume who were sort persecuted for their beliefs and discoveries. The Catholic Church ravaged anyone that got in the way of it's doctrines. Come brillant minds never came to the front with their findings because it contradicted some of the beliefs of the bible.

Bush comes to mind when I think of modern hindrances by religious zealots; his stand on stem cell research is not exactly pro-research. Stem cells could be one of the greatest advancements in history if only there were enough scientists and funding behind it. Only the die hard Christians are against it and most don't even understand it. We need to have a separation from Church and State, obviously this hasn't really happened yet.

I've heard beautiful testimonies explaining how God has blessed Believers with physical healing, renewed relationships, and more. However, how has God disciplined you with love, allowing you to grow and change? How did you feel during the discipline? If you felt alone, when did you realize God was always there, and clearly see what he was trying to teach? What did you learn? If you were stubborn, or needed to be humbled, how firm was your discipline?

What do you think of religion? Its uses, is it easier to put blame on the invisible, than on yourself? Is it easier to blame the devil on the mistakes that you made, then on yourself? Is it easier to thank an unseen force, for your achievements, than your own hard work?

King kansa very well knew, from the prophecy, that the eighth child of his sister devki,would slay him.Then how could he allow not one but eight children of devki to be born , when the couple was his captive.It is told that he considered killing his sister or his brother-in-law would be a great crime.ok.But ,He could very well have kept devki and her husband in different quaters to avoid any possiblity of any children being born. Normally also, male and female prisoners are kept separate.Then,what could be the justification for him allowing them both into one single jail quarter? And surprisingly,above that ,devki and her husband could do 'all that stuff' in midst of prison for atleast 8 years..this is not believable.

If Chrisitans followed the same kind of doctrine that the Quran teaches then wouldn't the Crusades have been right? I mean if you look at it, Chrisians were the first to be killed because of their belief. Then you have Muhamad who killed thousand of Christians and Jews. So if Christians followed the same kind of peaceful doctrine that the Quran teaches, wouldn't the crusades have been right in God's eyes.

Seems like there will never be peace in the middle east as long as the Jewish people are there... Wouldn't it be better if we gave them Florida or Cuba and left the Islamic wierdos alone???
