like for instance, feeding the 5000 people, could you put that down to 'Chinese Whispers'?

raising Lazarus - maybe he wasn't really dead

healing the sick - the same methods 'faith healers' use today

We're talking about a time when people were truly superstitious and, to be blunt, were a bunch of illiterate peasants. It seems that they could easily be tricked by someone with great charisma.

..I consider myself an intellectual. Yet, it is not like God's picture is on page 4 of the Bible. So, how do you define God? Someone once said, "SOURCE OF POSITIVE ENERGY"...how do you describe THE ONE who we have never seen?

I cant see a provable audit trial. Any referance to the bible book would be like referring to a novel for the proof - which of course being just topical stories/fables written by unknowns, the bible wouldnt be enough to proceed with ?.

I feel bad for the child. I feel like I should send one anyway. But would she let her keep it? Would I just be wasting my money? What do you think?

You know, I try to be a good husband but I'm sorry, I'd like to wash a dish once in a while.
I mean what's so wrong about going out to a bar and picking up a dish to share some soapsuds with?
I always return them to the bar, so what's the problem?

I know there are differences between the Spanish that is spoken in Spain and the Spanish that is spoken in South America. Is there a name for the South American Spanish, and if so what is it. This is crucial to a book that I'm writing.

For example, I notice here in the KJV in Leviticus 18:22 that it says that a man with another man sexually is considered an 'abomination'. What does that mean exactly? I read in Leviticus 11:9-12 that eating shrimp is an 'abomination'. Why is it an abomination to eat shrimp? I see lots of people at Long John Silver and Red Lobster eating shrimp. It seems to me there should be a nationwide boycott by Christians and even an amendment to the US Constitution banning the sale of shrimp, since it is an abomination to the Christian God.

Why are some not all Christians only interested in the ban of gay marriages but not the ban of shrimp in America? Won't God be mad that so many people are committing the abomination of eating shrimp?

Do you think you want to debate on how the world is? Do you think you really don't approve of some political issues?
Do you think environment should be of greater concern?
Do you think that health of people is on the downfall?
