I think it's Matthew 7:6. Jesus says something like, "Don't give (something) to dogs, don't cast pearls before the swine." Are the dogs or swine Gentiles?

I think the point of the matter is that Islamists need to chill out and stop getting so violent at every done against them, In life to be mature you must learn to accept the good and bad, for we cannot change it..nor through violence. They burn puppets of the pope and such...and they are not violent, well the truth hurts doesn't it.

well wishes... but I am not a Muslim and I don't celebrate it. How should I respond to that letter. Should I tell him or not that I don't celebrate it? And how should I tell him about this when responding to his letter?

This is his letter:
I wish Your Excellency Ramadan Mubarak and a very Happy Eid Al-Fitr in advance. I would also ask you to please accept, Excellency, the renewed assurances of my highest consideration and respect.

I'm heterosexual by the way, so this is more a question about the topic, and not me trying to promote "my" agenda.

I saw this chair on Unsolved Mysteries, and it was a chair at some tavern, where some man died in it but put a curse on it before he did. After that, everyone who sat in the chair died. It now sits in a museum well out of reach, so that nobody can sit in it "for kicks" and possibly die. Does anyone remember seeing this, or know what they call the chair? I've tried Search Engine, but since I have next to nothing to go on, I can't find it. If you know the name, or the museum where the chair is, please let me know. I'm bored at work, and wanted to read up on it online. Thanks.

People brag all the time about their children, friends and spouse. These same people take offense when I brag about the number of sexual partners I have had. What accounts for the double standards?

I like to brag about my sexual history, just like I like to brag about how intelligent I am, how handsome I am, how much money I make, and everything else in my life (since I am so perfect). The only thing I lack is an abundance of friends, and that doesn't bother me because I no longer need to use anybody for anything since I have it all now.

The one thing I still DO use people for is sex. I am not ashamed to say that I have banged over 100 different girls and one guy (I met him through his sister... who I also humped). Sex is great and bragging about it afterwards is even better. I did that all throughout high school and college, and now that I am in my early 20s, I still have a lot to brag about. And my success with women will continue since I will look like a college-aged stud forever.

If it is so easy to understand God by literally interpreting the bible, why do you not all provide the same answers to a question?

Anyone looking at the answers to my questions about the Flood can see for themselves you cannot agree on a literal interpretation of the bible. Some of you even have to make up scripture to come up with answers.

Why can't you agree on one answer to any of my questions?

Saturday I overflowed the sink on our second story apartment... pretty majorly (drywall and ceiling damage done to the guy below us). I feel awful about it! Ofcourse I apologized and offered to pay for all damage to the apartment below us.

The problem now, is that the landlady who lives in the OTHER apartment beneath us, is accusing me of having a washing machine and apparently listening in on conversations (judging by her email to me, and a conversation she had with my boyfriend).

If this place were insulated and sealed properly, then not as much water damage would have been done... and she would not be overhearing private conversations and mistaking the vaccuum cleaner/aquarium filter/breadmaker for a washing machine!

Besides apologizing and paying for damages... is there anything else I should do? It will be atleast 6 months before the house we bought is ready to be moved into. Moving is NOT an option.

I just got a violation from Yahoo
(check my recent post)

So it's clear that some heartless
& faithless loser felt the need to
attempt negating all the positive
feedback & support I was getting
for my friend April.

If they don't agree that prayer can
work miracles, then why even bother
responding to a question when they
ovbiously aren't offering constructive
comments ??? Better for them to just
move on to another question , than to
make upsetting remarks.

I pray that God will help them to
find compassion for others in their heart.

I appreciate all those who did pray
God Bless each of you : )

I find it funny how born again christians get all lumped into one category. The category most common is hypocritical. For the record, not all are like that and for the few that are, there should not be a common label put on the rest. Being born again I know I am not perfect. I am not "without sin". It is not my place to judge anyone. There is only one that can do that and I am certainly not him. Anyone can be a hypocrite. It is very easy. You tell someone not to do something while in your privacy, you do it yourself. So, my point is because of the few that cast judgement and are too legalistic don't label all christians the same. For the most part the christians I know, know the worst that I ever was and still accept me for who I am. Not all are bad. It's interesting....the Bible states to treat others like you would like yourself treated. Christians wonder why they are judged so poorly by others......maybe if Christians showed more love than judgement it would be different.

Don't tell me what a god did (create the universe, create me) tell me what a god IS.

Don't tell me what it wants (10 commandments, Bible, Koran) tell me what it IS.

Don't tell me what man speaks to it (prophets, preachers) tell me what exactly are they speaking to?

Don't tell me who is the son, when you don't know what the father is to begin with.

Don't tell me it's a "spirit" because then I'll need you to tell me what a "spirit" or a "soul" is... so don't use those words please.

Most theists lack the necissary tools to articulate their faith in this manner, so for those of you who are still reading, but are lost as to what I'm asking, answer this question instead: "What makes your god real and Zeus, Apollo, and all those other gods fake?"

Thanks for your time.
