1. Did Jesus Christ have two fathers? The Father is the Father of the Son (I John 1:3), yet the child born of Mary was conceived by the Holy Ghost (Matthew 1:18, 20; Luke 1:35). Which one is the true father? Some trinitarians say that the Holy Ghost was merely the Father's agent in conception - a process they compare to artificial insemination!
2. How many Spirits are there? God the Father is a Spirit (John 4:24), the Lord Jesus is a Spirit (II Corinthians 3:17), and the Holy Spirit is a Spirit by definition. Yet there is one Spirit (I Corinthians 12:13; Ephesians 4:4).

3. If Father and Son are co-equal persons, why did Jesus pray to the Father? (Matthew 11:25). Can God pray to God?

4. Similarly, how can the Son not know as much as the Father? (Matthew 24:36; Mark 13:32).

5. Similarly, how can the Son not have any power except what the Father gives Him? (John 5:19, 30; 6:38).

6. Similarly, what about other verses of Scripture indicating the inequality of the Son and the Father? (John 8:42; 14:28; I Corinthians 11:3).

7. Did "God the Son" die? The Bible says the Son died (Romans 5:10). If so, can God die? Can part of God die?

8. How can there be an eternal Son when the Bible speaks of the begotten Son, clearly indicating that the Son had a beginning? (John 3:16; Hebrews 1:5-6).

9. If the Son is eternal and existed at creation, who was His mother at that time? We know the Son was made of a woman (Galatians 4:4).

10. Did "God the Son" surrender His omnipresence while on earth? If so, how could he still be God?

I offer a mild apology to Christians and Jews, considering that their religions appear to have managed to co-exist with technology and human progress to some degree.

My and my wife are swingers, and tonight we are planning on wife swapping with another couple. The only problem is, The other husband of the other couple has STDs. I really want to sleep with his hot wife but don't want this guy to sleep with my wife. My plan is to sleep with his wife and then flee my town. I have already packed and sold my house. I told him I was busy in the night so I would have to sleep with his wife during the day but my wife would sleep with him that night. After I sleep with his wife, I will drive back to my house, get all my things and my wife and move to another state. I am a moral man, a god king.

I went out to have a good time and to celebrate my sister-in-laws birthday. While at a straight bar a girl pinned me up against the bar while my sister-in-law was in another part of the bar. She was rubbing up against me telling me how much she wanted to kiss me and how hot I was. I was at first a little shocked and was trying to be nice, but she was very persistant. She said that she wouldn't leave me alone unless I kissed her. I was starting to get scared and was asking for help from other people in the bar that were next to me, but no one would help me. They were guys and were enjoying the scene. Finally my sister-in-law saw that I was in trouble and told the lesbian that I was "with" her. This lesbian was attractive, but I'm not attracted to women. She was also a lot bigger than me...that's why I was kind of scared of her. Do all lesbians act so dominant? I mean if this was a man acting this way someone in the bar would have probably punched him.

We have realtor board meetings once a week and before we start the board would start a christian prayer which offended many people and realtors at the meetings.

10 Realtors and I decided to take it to court for them to ban prayer because it infringes on other peoples rights and beliefs. our Lawyer has assured us he will get them to stop , I just hope Im not hated for it later which i dont care because fair is fair and reciting christian prayers is just plain sickening and wrong and did I mention immoral.

Imitations, prejudices, lack of knowledge, arrogance and laziness...are the sources of great controversy everywhere on our planet today.
And just think, how beautiful the countries would become, if the noble UN and its glorious agencies provided on the Internet a universal shool of science and religion for any people who wnat to improve themselves and to improve the world.
Following is the statement of Abdul-Baha (an oriental Master) in London about a century ago:

"If any religion rejected Science and knowledge, that religion was false. Science and Religion should go forward together; indeed, they should be like two fingers of one hand.  
Bahá'u'lláh had also in His Writings given a most important place to Art, and the practice of skilled Trades. He had stated that the practice of an Art or Trade in the true spirit of service was identical with the worship of God."
(Abdu'l-Baha, Abdu'l-Baha in London, p. 71)

When I read questions like let's fight the onslaught of the heathens it just makes me wonder, especially with the light of the news of the jesus camp where we see the woman yelling spiritual war, and saying that she wants to fight this war like a real war being faught currently in the middle east, where people die.

Do you theists understand that atheists don't want to have a war with you at all?

This is a some theist problem, not an all, I'd say based on my expirience its easily 95% of theists who understand we aren't at war.

So this question is directed at the 5%, for whatever reason seem to be all here tonight on yahoo answers.

Bring it on! (Just not a war ok, no fighting)
