If you alone held the choice as to whether your child's murderer would receive life in prison or the death sentence, what would you do?

Lock him up?
Throw the switch?

How did you come to your choice?

All this protest over the pope's statement that Islam is "violent and evil" -- here is how Muslims responded:

"We will break up the cross, spill the liquor and impose head tax, then the only thing acceptable is a conversion (to Islam) or (killed by) the sword."

What part of violence and evil don't they understand?

OK, I was skiing with my girl and had to go, but I didn't want to stop and go all the way back to the lodge, so I pooped in my pants. She didn't know until we got home because my snowpants kept the smell in. When she found out she was mad! I don't see why, when she hadn't even known for hours.

If you're at home by yourself and really involved in something you're doing, and you just go, who cares?

And what's wrong with wearing diapers if you want?

I asked this yesterday, no one caught what I was asking.

Tree of life in christian mythology is symbolic of Jesus

Romans, they are pagans (not atheists), but they crucified jesus, with a hammer and a nail, on the mount calvary.

So, now that you all have the explanation of the words and metaphors,

What happens if an Atheist (or a Roman) chops down the Tree of Life (or Jesus) in the Garden of Eden (or Mount Calvary)?

Does the question make sense now?

Please, your thoughts.

The One True God identifies Himself through the Bible, as the Creator and by His Name YHVH - the Eternal Most High. As omnipresent Spirit, YHVH manifested Himself in a human Body, born from an Israelite woman by miraculous Divine Insemination, to experience human life at first-hand and to succeed in perfect human nature. In this form, as 'Messiah ben Yosef', God provided Himself as the 'Unblemished Sacrifice' and paid with His Human Life for the reconciliation of 'His lost sheep' with His Covenant. When YHVH died on the Stake as a Man, most brutally murdered by His own Creation, His Spirit never died (for it lives eternally) and in Spirit He was still Omni-presently present throughout the Universe! Thus Messiah could say: "Break down this Temple, and in 3 days I will resurrect it again!" - How would this be done? - through His omnipresent Eternal Spirit. God is eternally ONE.
Isaiah 9:6 is one of the most powerful proofs that Jesus is God: "For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father The Prince of Peace."
Isaiah 35:4-6 shows that Jesus is God: "Behold, your God… he will come and save you." This passage goes on to say that when God comes the eyes of the blind would be opened, the ears of the deaf would be unstopped, the lame would leap, and the tongue of the dumb would speak. Jesus applied this passage of Scripture to Himself (Luke 7:22) and, of course, His ministry did produce all of these things. Paul described Jesus as "the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ" (Titus 2:13; NIV has "our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ"). According to Acts 20:28, the church was purchased with God's own blood, namely the blood of Jesus.Jesus is "the image of the invisible God" (Colossians 1:15; II Corinthians 4:4).
Many verses of Scripture declare Jesus Christ to be the God of the Old Testament robed in flesh for the purpose of self-revelation and reconciliation.

In The Koran it say, in Sura (Book) Nine, Verse 30 "The Jews say Ezra is the son of God; and the Christians say that the Messiah is the son of God; that is what they say with their mouths, imitating the sayings of those who misbelieved before. God fight them! How they lie!" Osama Bin Laden was a good Muslim.

He's a rather large man and probably can't see it to aim it, if you get my drift, and there's been times when I've had guests over and they mention there is a puddle on the floor...so not only is he peeing on the floor, he's not cleaning it up, and now my bathroom smells bad. I've tried leaving hints like disinfecting the bathroom daily, lighting candles, ect...but apparently he's still not getting it. What do I do?

According to the Bible, we are to test the spirits: 1 John 4:1-3...1Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. 2This is how you can recognize the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, 3but every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming and even now is already in the world.

Question 1) Given the light of this passage, why do so many Christians say that all spirits are demons come to deceive people?
Question 2) Given the command to test the spirits, why do Christians say that communicating with spirits is wrong? If there is no communication, there is nothing to test.
