Society & Culture - 13 October 2006

I am currently in Phoenix, AZ the job I had in New Orleans laid off their employees after the hurricane and now I have the opportunity to work for them again, but the only problem is getting back home. The job opportunity is one that I really don't want to pass up so if anyone can help please do so.

Muslims insist it was Ismael. WHY? Because Mohamad said so.
The Bible says it was Issac. So, why did Mohamad decide to change the Bible and replace Issac with Ismael?

What goddesses do you know of? I need to know their names, what they were goddess of (love, rain, death, etc), and what culture or country they were from.

Most of it is inforced by religion to oppress the humans will, why if you are godless would you want to follow 'gods' laws?

There is absolutely NO evidence that Abraham went to Mecca. It's all conjecture made up by the false prophet Mohamad. Muslims say "show us your proof" but the only "proof" they offer about Abraham going to Mecca is the words of a man who proclaimed himself to be a prophet and took over Saudi Arabia with the SWORD!

Where is your proof Muslims? WHERE?

note: the Koran doesnt count, because it changes scripture

If Jesus is believed to be GOD because he could do miracles, he could heal leprosy, he could cause blind men to see, or raise the dead, then what about the others who performed the same miracles?

Elisha and Elijah fed a hundred people with twenty barley loaves and a few ears of corn (2 Kings 4:44). Elisha told Naaman, who was a leper, to wash in the river Jordan (2 Kings 5:14) and he was healed. Elisha caused a blind man to see in (2 Kings 6:17,20). Elijah and Elisha raised the dead in (1 Kings 17:22, and 2 Kings 4:34). Even Elisha's dead bones restored a dead body in (2 Kings 13:21). Indeed Jesus had prophesied that people will worship him uselessly and will believe in doctrines not made by GOD but by men "But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. (Matthew 15:9)"

In Matthew 15:9 above, we see Jesus warning that Trinity (the bogus lie) will dominate, and people will take Jesus as GOD and worship him, which is a total sin according to what Jesus said !!.

Muslims think Abraham was asked to sacrifice Ismael, when in fact the Bible clearly states it was Issac! Why did Mohamad think he could change God's word? Doesn't this make him a FALSE PROPHET?

I am looking into different religions, specifically Christian faiths, and am very confused about the idea of salvation. The Protestants believe in faith alone(that is in the form of the sinner's prayer) and you can be saved just by saying one prayer. On the other the Catholics and Orthodox(the groups I feel more accustomed to) believe in the sacrements and living the Christian life of the Church. How did Protestants come to believe this? In Christian history I've found that even the early Christians had sacrements for salvation, so do Protestants even read their own Christian History? I don't know...Protestants confuse me. Enlighten me please.

Okay. I'm in the process of finishing my first ever major movie role. I think it's gonna be a hit movie when it comes out. The producers all think so too. I'm really, really happy about this but, I'm afraid of fans. Like, I'm afraid they will be 'fake' and not real fans that actually like my work, but only like me because I was on a movie. I hate the thought of that. That is one of the few things I hate most about this. How can I avoid fake fans? How can I tell if they are fake or real fans?

can they just read it and accomplish the same result?
And....... do you think other things such as prayers, fellowship, ect could accomplish the same without reading or studying?

If celebrating holidays that have pagan origins is okay, then why did God punish the Israelites for trying to take false worship while changing and calling it a worship to the Almighty God?

This is the article about it from ScientificAmerican.Com

I posted this question before and someone who didn't want to believe me called me an idiot and asked where was my proof of the scientific discovery. That person should apologize because here it is from an unbiased scientific source. It only took me a couple of minutes to find it in a google search. A similar, but not as thorough article is also written by NPR which has a reputation for leaning to the left.

I am a 21 yr old girl that had so much faith when I was growing up. When I was 18 years old I moved in with my boyfriend and I stopped going to church and now my faith is extremely low and sometimes I wonder if there is a God at all. I try praying so hard to get answers and it seems like I get nothing at all. I put everything I have into my prayers and still no answer. Is God real?

Hagar was Egyptian. Doesn't it make sense that she would go back to Egypt?

Where were they sent...references please.

note: the Koran doesn't count as a valid reference because it changes scripture.

I would hope that no one would lie, but please, for those who know it, what is your IQ? For those who do not know their actual IQ, do you consider yourself to be intelligent? More or less than average?
