over flashing your skin?

you know what you have Alhamdulillah and have the confidence to use your brain to attract intelligent men.

do you not feel sorry for the non-Muslim women who are looked at as mere objects of self-gratification by lecherous men?

I'm not talking about how to put together a statement of faith or a dogmatic creed,I'm speaking of the legal ins and outs.Establishing your own church,tax shelters E.T.C.

Any help is appreciated.

"If we go back to the beginning we shall find that ignorance and fear created the gods; that fancy, enthusiasm, or deceit adorned or disfigured them; that weakness worships them; that credulity preserves them, and that custom, respect and tyranny support them in order to make the blindness of men serve its own interests."
-Paul-Henri Thiry, baron d'Holbach

I had their little hearts pumping sooo hard. We were supposed to be on our way trick or treating, but I "ran out of gas" along the way, just before a dark dead end road. I had them all come with me, couldn't leave them in the car, right?
I told them we would ask at the house to use the phone. Little did they know there was no house, just an abandoned barn. I brought them into the barn, where Barney my best friend has just butchered an elk. We had pieces of elk, and blood everywhere, and their mother did the head on a table thing, you know the hole in the table, cut out table cloth, it looked like her head was chopped off and on a table, great effects. Then Barney comes out of the dark part of the barn with the bone saw just blazing away, dripping in blood, and chased the kids all the way back to the car.
Now they are all pissed at me, but come on, isn't this what dads are for? My dad used to scare the piss out of me regularly. Why are kids so soft these days?

To the Yahoo Answers question "Why are Atheists held to higher standards than God believers?", a christian responded with the following words:

"Your question shows that you are arrogant and think you are better than Christians. Christians (a true Christian) admit to being sinners and needing God to help them. Atheists don't admit to being flawed in anything, and they don't think that they need anyone but themselves."

Atheists,is this what you believe? Do you "not admit to being flawed"? Does this person's perception of yourself and other atheists seem accurate to you? What are your beliefs in regard to virtue, human imperfection and character, including your own?

If you're gay (I'm not, I'm just curious) in University, do they treat you any differently? I mean, I think it'd be a bit of a conflict of interest to have a gay guy in a dorm with 3 straight guys...just like it'd be a problem to have one male around 3 females.

So do they do anything differently?

Incredibly, the eye, optic nerve and visual cortex are totally separate and distinct subsystems. Yet, together, they capture, deliver and interpret up to 1.5 million pulse messages a milli-second! It would take dozens of Cray SUPERCOMPUTERS programmed perfectly and operating together flawlessly to even get close to performing this task!!

Is it rational to believe that the eye (life) is the result of nature's trial and error or the design of an intelligent creator??

A lot of people around me are saying I'm gonna go to hell for listening to Ozzy and Black Sabbath, and even Iron Maiden and Metallica.

Is this true? Does this music go against Christianity? Should I go burn my CDs?
