I would like to think when someone is killed for no other reason than race, religion, or sexuality the killer should be given the ultimate penalty because to kill for no reason is unbecoming of modern society, and it is one of the most evil crimes possible, the holocaust happened because of hate murders, should we alow that attiude to survive in any form

is it not enough that jesus was with men
to tell of our father most holy ,did jesus coming to men mean that 'thou shalt have no god before god ' now means except his son
jesus was a man the true incarnate heir of the father ,for even mosus could not look upon the real father
jesus being flesh was in a corruptable body ,lets be honest he died on the cross ,or else how did he get reserected
; are we to believe god can be destroyed by men?
just as we are
did he ;jesus the first [pope ,not say 'these things you see me do you will do greater' ,
what ?..
will we also then be named god or mearly suns of the one true eternal ,most perfect god ,creator and most mercyfilled love ,truth and light.
i lopve jesus who revealed unto men the best that man created of god THE GOD,may one day become
if we cant get it right...figure that out our own selves ..why should he want to come back
we didnt listen last time.

In Christian mythology, God is supposed to the the all-powerful, all-knowing creator of the universe. God is supposed to have incarnated himself as Jesus and he is supposed to have written the Bible. And yet today God is completely and absolutely silent. Therefore, the only thing we hear from God comes from people who are speaking on his behalf.

If you would like to understand how imaginary God is, all that you have to do is listen to God's spokespeople, because in many cases these people are lunatics. If there actually were a God, and if he actually had anything to do with love, he would silence these people because they are an absolute embarrassment.

You think telling us is gonna secure you a spot in heaven? Or do you think people forgot that christians believe that jesus is their savior? Or is it is just a religous habit forced into you heads? And all you are always saying to everyone "ill pray for you" - you know thats bull$hit, can you tell me that when you pray at night you include somone off of yahoo answers in your prayer. What are you trying to prove? Do you think got is impressed when you say that stuff maybe?

When missionaries came to Australia, they saw how Indigenous Australians were living free and unclothed. This was a huge sin in their eyes. Traditional language and culture was discouraged.

Missionaries soon asked the government for assistance. In return, hundreds of missions and reserves were set up throughout Australia for the purpose of assimilating Indigenous people into "White society". The women were raped, children set away to work of farms for little or no wage, and the men were sent to work and go to war despite the fact we were not being classed as citizens a the time.

Today, I am a proud Australian Aboriginal woman who's learning the very same language they took away from us, I feel very proud to speak it as I speak it for the one's who couldn't due to the oppression periods in Australia.

When Gwen and I first met, we did not realise that we would spend our lives together. This was some 42 yeats ago. We were not aware of others like us but we did live as quietly as church mice. Were we so rare? I have a sense that our office supervisor may have been gay.
Best wishes, Rose P.

My extended-family has a pumpkin carving contest every year, and the prizes always go to the funny pumpkins.

Well this year I've decided to take my humorless-self onto Yahoo Answers to see if I can get some ideas.

when i was made godfather to my younger cousin 15 years ago, i was in fact a practicing satanist. i did mention this to my auntie and uncle at the time but i dont think they were listening. when asked during the christening ceremony if i renounced satan i replied no but the minister just carried on. does this in any way compromise my position as godfather?

do some people get just enough of the christian germ to be inoculated so they never really catch the disease. If one is only inoculated should they be told left alone to "not grow" which is a sure sign that they were just inoculated.
sorry bout the gross analogy but how else to explain shortly??? An old preacher gave me this analogy 30 years ago and in my walk I see what he was saying, but what to do??

A few of my friends and I are going to be able to pick Halloween costumes for 2 guys. They were saying some things about women in a sociology class they shouldn't have so we want to make this a very memorable Halloween for them. They're both slight and one of them has great long blonde hair I'm dying to get my hands on. We got some ideas on Yahoo Answers for Halloween Costumes, but we got more great ideas than we expected so we thought we'd let you narrow down the nominees. We want this to be embarrassing and memorable. We want a theme for the 2 costumes, but we don't intend to let them know about each other until the party. Which nominee would you pick?
1. Original Daisy Duke/ Jessica Simpson Daisy Duke
2. I Dream of Jeanie/ Bewitched
3. Britney/ Cristina
4. Nicole/ Paris
5. Batgirl/Catwoman
6. Wilma/ Betty
7. Ginger/ Mary Ann
8. Aly/ AJ
9. Hillary & Haylie Duff
10. Jessica & Ashlee Simpson
11. Sexy School Teacher & Sexy School Girl
