What are the preferred types of wood? Are different woods used in combination? What are the dimensions of hight, length and width. How long will it take to completely reduce to ash.? Does it burn hot enough to fully consume the deceased and their bones? Are there any books with detailed instructions, illustrations or photo's? Anything at all will be very appreciated.

After reading a question about someones friend being very ill; I thought of a question for ya'll.

Will you accept Jesus Christ while you are yet healthy and in the land of the living? Or will you do like theif on the cross and accept Christ right before you life ends?

37 And saying, If thou be the king of the Jews, save thyself. 38 And a superscription also was written over him in letters of Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS. 39 And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us. 40 But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation? 41 And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss. 42 And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom. 43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.

Is it because of Laguna Beach? Unless you are a robot or computer program, then pretty much EVERYTHING is random.

So random....so stupid.

Everyone knows that written and spoken English is composed of an alphabet of 26 letters [a, b, c...z]. I also speak Chinese, and know that it is composed of characters that each have a single meaning when composed together make a different meaning [eg. 今=this,present; 天=day; 今天=today]. I also know Japanese and Korean also use an alphabet system [a, i, u, e, o; ka, ki, ku, ke, ko; etc] and they also use some Chinese characters. So, what is your language like? Does it use characters or alphabet system? Please state your country and language. This will be very interesting!

For example, that women can't have authority over men or even speak in church, killing people that don't believe in God, or stoning people the don't keep the sabbath holy.

Where these taken out of context?

i just want to have fun in the costumes, and act crazy, so please dont say that Haloween is an evil holiday, or anything like that.

i am not allowed to go out because my mom says that the candy is pointless! and the school Haloween dance (that i went to last year, which was really fun.) is cancelled because there is a classroom in the gymnasium now because a stupid extension is being built to our school.

do you have any other ideas on how i can do haloween?

thanks!

......But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.


What are your thoughts on this statement?

Hey, read this first.

I HONESTLY think that black people are more black people are aggressive. Why? I see them at school. Goofing off in class. (But still, there's the ones who aren't aggressive, and they're my friends, too. And that's not appeasement, either.) Just my experience, and I don't think that being in a certain race would make you more aggressive. I think it's the "omg mom I wanna be a gangster" thing. And saying that it doesn't exist would be a lie.

There, I gave my point and my evidence. Clearly not racist. Then people come up with "OMG U RLY DUN HAV ANY BLACK FRIENDS U LOSER. U DON HAVE ANY FRENDS". I said that the "gangster" factor would affect them. TV and the environment really affects people, don't say it doesn't.

Facts. Evidence. People refute them with "OMG POLITICALLY INCORRECT RACIST OMG".

Now, is my little essay over there considered racist? It's not supposed to be, and actually reading it would tell you that it's not supposed to be racist.

I read it in an article about the book "A Clockwork Orange". It was in relation to being a substitution for both god and the devil. It wasn't explained well however. Any information would help.

How can you think life is meaningful without religious brainwashing? Many are convinced that life has a purpose, but in reality, their just as wrong as the religious right because desire is absolutely meaningless. As a result of natural selection, we only pursue whatever releases endorphins in our body. We are servants to our own wants and needs. Even when we are serving others, we are only serving our own motherly instincts. Vices like religion, art, education, politics, sex, drugs...everything we create is just masturbation of the mind and body. These things do not elevate man above animals...man only has bigger, more complex levels of satisfaction and serotonin levels. All the truth in the world adds up to one big lie.

(Do you agree with these people or not?)
