Personally I belive that the attack was set up by the American government. Have you seen the pictures of the pentagon. There is no way the was done by a boeing 747 It only damaged one layer of the pentagon and it was just a small hole. I know it is really sad to say. but I think that the government was just looking for an excuse to go to war with Iraq. What are your opions on it. And no I am not just being mean. I feel awful about what happend to those people in the world trade center.

Surely if you sin and get sent to Hell, then Satan would look after you because you are bad, like him?
On the other hand, if you are sent to heaven for judgement, with God being all forgiving, then he would open his arms to you.
I say if you can live with your conscience and are not harming others, do what you want!

This is a sincere question because my God does heal people. I had a spot on my lung and ask God to heal it and 3 months later it was gone. I would have been quite happy to die if God choose it, that is why I had opted for no treatment of it if it was bigger in 3 months.

ok so we take it as read that we get forgiveness if we admit our sins so can't I just say a prayer like this, get it alkl out inthe open as it were, " forgive me for all the sins I have and will commit until I die, I acknowledge you are the one true god and will worship no other" surely then I'm covered and can go live my life. I'm not saying I will deliberately do any thing wrong but it's a kiind of just in case would that be ok?

If you believe that abortion is murder and doctors are killing.

What are your thoughts about Fertility clinics that KILL an AVERAGE of 13 embryos PER patient that comes in to get pregnant?

They kill WAY more souls that abortion doctors do, Why isn't this your cause?

If foreigners decide to live in another country, should they have to live by that country's laws, or still abide by their own country's laws?

Psalm 137
137:1 By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion.
137:2 We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof.
137:3 For there they that carried us away captive required of us a song; and they that wasted us required of us mirth, saying, Sing us one of the songs of Zion.
137:4 How shall we sing the LORD's song in a strange land?
137:5 If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning.
137:6 If I do not remember thee, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth; if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy.
137:7 Remember, O LORD, the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem; who said, Rase it, rase it, even to the foundation thereof.
137:8 O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed; happy shall he be, that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us.
137:9 Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.

You are like a mirage in the desert, which the thirsty man thinks is water; but when he comes up to it he finds it is nothing. And where he thought it was, there he finds God. Similarly, if you were to examine yourself, you would find it to be nothing, and instead you would find God. That is to say, you would find God instead of yourself, and there would be nothing left of you but a name without a form. ~ Al-Alawi

Does an embryo have a soul?

If you believe so than read this article and go and protest and harass those families that enter a fertility clinic. Because they will be killing 13 embryos to get one baby...

I am too pragmatic to accept or discount the possibility that those things exist. Heck, I'd love to meet an alien or trap a Bigfoot, but I must admit that all the testimonials about encounters are dubious at best. The underlying characteristics are that these encounters are in remote locations, the photos are fuzzy and video shaky, they leave no conclusive evidence, and in the case of alien spacecraft, the meaning of U.F.O. is stretched to it's limit. When I see a contrail of a jet at 30,000 feet or more that I cannot recognize due to it's altitude, I have no choice but to designate it as a U.F.O. since it challenges my knowledge. But I'm not going to say that it is of extra-terrestrial origin even if it has no contrail or seems to hover. Which leads me to believe that Bigfoot, alien abductions, bleeding moons, and time warps are the contemporary versions of sea serpents, mermaids, and fictional gods that must be appeased. I'd like some views on this whether in agreement or not.

I think think this proves that the Anti-Choice people are more about limiting sexual expression of women then saving lives!

There are nearly 200,000 embryo's being FROZEN : At one Bay Area clinic, they are flushed down the drain in a metal sink. At another, a technician drops them into a medical waste bin, to be picked up and incinerated by hospital staff.

If you believe, like the Anti Choicers do, that an embryo is a human soul or something like that, then why aren't you more outraged at these places that kill 14 embryos per patient??!?!

Don't you get the math here, or are you still a hypocrite? 14 little embryos destroyed per person, vs. ONE per abortion. Sounds like you're either fighting the wrong evil, or you're really not about saving lives...
