The Biblical description of the flood in Genesis chapter 6, 7 and 8 indicates that the deluge was universal and it destroyed every living thing on earth, except those present with Noah (pbuh) in the ark. The description suggests that the event took place 1656 years after the creation of Adam (pbuh) or 292 years before the birth of Abraham, at a time when Noah (pbuh) was 600 years old. Thus the flood may have occurred in the 21st or 22nd Century B.C.
This story of the flood, as given in the Bible, contradicts scientific evidence from archaelogical sources which indicate that the eleventh dynasty in Egypt and the third dynasty in Babylonia were in existence without any break in civilisation and in a manner totally unaffected by any major calamity which may have occurred in the 21st century B.C. This contradicts the Biblical story that the whole world had been immersed in the flood water.

so whats wrong here

I mean - specifically - Chinese...
most of my Chinese friends are Atheist and don't believe in God at all...is it their culture ? Their Emperor is used to be assumed as descendant of God (same with Jesus????), but as they realized that Emperor is just human, they no longer believe in God...

If Jesus was to walk the earth, do you think we would know, or could he be one of those nuts that we lock up, or a bum we throw money to, or look with disgust? How would it be any different now as it was then?

you guys say you teach your kid from birth so they know god. but if you brainwash your kid into believing god, instead of letting them chose on their own, do you think that is what god had in mind when he gave us free will? (keep in mind the only logical reason to give us free will was so that we would come to him on our own. so that we wouldnt be like robots, programmed to believe - which is basically what your doing when you ONLY teach your child one thing from birth and teach it as an absolute truth) dont you think its ironic that god gave us free will only to have you take it away from your children?

I am putting together a zombie costume for Halloween, and since zombies are supposed to eat brains, I am looking for ideas on what to use to make a brain as a prop. I was thinking of spray painting cauliflour, but don't know if the paint will hold. Any ideas?

Now before this gets all turned around don't call me a racist, or anything of the sort... I think that there are just as many bad white people as there are any other race... but my question is this...

What would happen if there was a "White Entertainment Television"...

What would happen if we had a White history month?

Or like Athletic organizations that only allow in white people?? I am just curious what would happen

I KNOW that not all people in a race are the same way... but I was listening to a black lady having a conversation and she called some big guy, little. A Mexican said why you call him little that would be like me calling you white... and she said oh you better not do that!

If I would have said that she would have turned me in...

Just curious... PLEASE understand I am not racist... I just wonder why some people feel as if its ok to bash white people...

After some fellow co-workers of mine told my boss that they were having major problems at a school that we provide teaching services to, my boss did a site visit to see for herself. One of the teachers pointed out that a students burped in her face. The student was white but dressed in urban gear and had golds/a grill. My boss asked him to come over and apologize. As he was walking away she whispered, "That's what you call a wigger." Now, I wasn't there, and I know she wouldn't have said it around me cuz i am african-american, but she did say it to my hispanic co-worker and if you didn't know, hispanics come in all colors. Any place other than Miami, my hispanic co-worker can pass for white, but her brother which has the same mother and father looks black, and she was very offended. The other employee is a white girl and she said it made her feel so uncomfortable to hear something like that? What do you think? I can tell of countless other sayins that my boss says....

And the Lord spake unto the philosopher, "I am the Lord thy God, and I am the source of all that is good. Why does thy secular moral philosophy ignore me?'
And the Philosopher spake unto the Lord, 'To Answer I must 1st ask you some quesiton. You Command us to do what is good. But is it good b/c you command it, or do you command it because it is good?'
'Ur,' said the Lord,'It's good because I command it?'
'The wrong answer,surely,your mightness! If the good is only good b/c you say it is so, then yu could, if you wished, make it so that torturing infants was good. Bur that would be absurd,wouldn't it?'
'Of course!' replieth the Lord. 'I tested thee and thou hast made me pleased. What was the other choice again?'
You choose what is good b/c it is good. But that shows quite clearly that goodness does not depend on you at all. So we don't need to study God to study the good.'
'Even so,' spake the Lord,' you've got to admit I've written some pretty good textbooks on the subject...'

build the biggest Mosque in Europe, right in the heart of Britain. The Mosque will be built from the profits of greedy and immoral western societies. We will use your own laws like, "freedom of expression", and "freedom of speech" to build Mosques throughout Britain, and while your Churches crumble, Muslims will creating island upon island of Islamic purity until all the islands join as one into an a new Islamic Britain under Sharia Law. So why not join us now fellow Britons?
