Recently I experience this more and more in warehouse stores. One continues to stand in line directly behind the current person being checked out. So when their companion shows up they can go directly to the front of the line. Management of the warehouse store says they have no policy as to who gets to check out next. Kind of a survival of the fittest policy I guess.

First of all I'm a Christian, but I find problems, not with Christianity its fine, but with Christians today. My Brothers come to understand the Bible as a whole

#1. Dont do away with the old Testament with the excuse that Jesus came and did away with the old testament

Matthew 5:17)- Christ says he didnt come to do away with it

#2. Jesus is not God, Christ means Messiah, spoken of mainly in Isiah. Jesus is the son of God, but not God

God is very Jelous and if you read your old testament you would know that. But let me make this clear CHRIST IS THE MESSIAH NOT JUST A RANDOM PROPHET AS PAGAN MUSLIMS WANT YOU TO BELIEVE

#3. STOP BEING SO PEACEFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I know Christ came in peace, but in Matthew 22:37-38)- Jesus himself said the most important Commandment was to honor God, and to Honor God you must obey him and his commands

It was supposed to air May 3, 1994 on the Discovery Channel, and on a bunch of others I think. It exposed a network of religious leaders and Washington politicians who flew children to Washington D.C. for sex orgies. At the last minute before airing, unknown congressmen threatened the TV Cable industry with restrictive legislation if this documentary was aired.

So hypothetically, I'd be the last man - I'd start making more men. Probably be a full time job.


I'm not God I can't make people out of dust and clay, I'd have to evolve them out.

I see muslims saying similar statements here a lot. Check out Ibrahim's statement here - http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AvDSGMyBry1avRlPKx0vTMnzy6IX?qid=20061012132039AAgT1BV

What is the proof or evidence to support such a belief by Muslims? Other participants can feel free to comment on the answers.

This is a serious question and not an affront to Islam. Peace.

My younger sister is just 22 years old. She is beautiful, very smart and very artistic. We live in the New York area. She was working and going to school until about a year and a half ago. This is a girl who did not even take a drink and then she just starts shooting heroin and I have no idea why. Two of her close friends have died of heroin overdoses within the last 6 months. My sister overdosed about two weeks ago. She was dead. Her heart stopped and she had no pulse. She was revived in the emergency room. I have done everything to try and help her. She will not go to rehab or N.A. meetings. She says she can do this herself. I call her constantly and write her letters and try to babysit her to keep her alive. She ignores me most of the time. I can not sleep and I hardly eat. I am so upset and depressed about her as I feel I will get a call one day that she is gone. My husband tells me to stop chasing after her and she has to want the help herself.

I'm just curious as I really don't believe in a lot of stuff other religions believe in, but I find that what I know of the Asatru, its the closest to what I believe in.

Are there any things that you would not do to preserve/extend your own life? Is there a moral boundary that you would not overstep in order to stay alive? If so then what? and what would be your reasons? Please explain.

Habakkuk 1:5-"Look among the nations and watch-- Be utterly astounded! For I will work a work in your days Which you would not believe, though it were told you.

Matthew 21:32-For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him; but tax collectors and harlots believed him; and when you saw it, you did not afterward relent and believe him.

John 3:12-If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things?

John 3:18-He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

John 3:36-He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him."

John 4:1-Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world.
