I'm not sure if I am imagining it or not, but I think there may be some kind of interest between me and a coworker. Last week I noticed that he was looking at me as I was walking nearby and, and today I needed to go into the office to do my end of day work routine... and knocked on the door and i could hear nikola and steve talking saying its her and opened the door for me. steve was sitting at his computer and after she left, he got up, and spoke to me, and said how busy he was tonight as he is the operator of the admin and ticketing office so we were chatting away, and he told me that he would be working till 130 am which is when i asked what he had planned for next week, he said nothing but solid work. So i tried to be subtle and asked him if he had much of a socialife and he said no, nothing but home! so i thought did i just say something i shouldnt have asked?? as I was about to leave he said u forgot something and he handed me my paperwork and our fingers touched .

She might be royal, but she isn't really that attractive. She has some big, weird eyes

Not eating pork, strict monothesim, punishments for adultery etc etc. Reading the old testament, new testament and the quran, ive come to notice that the old testament and the quran are a lot more similar than the old testament and the new testament. Why do you think this is so?

If not, how does God have all this presence and all this knowledge? Doesn't God have to be the ultimate compassionate machine and in doing so doesn't God have to be able to walk the mile in all the shoes all the time?

I am trying to find out why a Bidet is such a common fixture in the Europe. Have they considered alternatives like toilet papers ? Or is it just a cultural thing? I understand the concept of hygiene but are there some other reasons ?

Can we do anything that God does not allow us to do and knows that we will do? If we can, who needs God?

18:50 Behold! We said to the angels, "Bow down to Adam": They bowed down except Iblis. He was one of the Jinns, and he broke the Command of his Lord. Will ye then take him and his progeny as protectors rather than Me? And they are enemies to you! Evil would be the exchange for the wrong-doers!

acording to the above verse
the command was not directed at satan but at the angels only.
satan was not an angel but ajinn
So he never broke any command.
it is like:
THE TEACHER CAME TO THE CLASS AND SAID: I WANT ALL THE BOYS TO STAND UP. ALL THE BOYS STOOD UP EXCEPT FATUMA.SHE WAS ONE OF THE GIRLS AND SHE BROKE THE COMMAND OF THE TEACHER.
now what command has fatuma broken?
Can the teacher punish fatuma for not standing up?
so in the same way what command has SATAN broken when the command was not directed at him.
And how can he be punished ?
Thanks

If as one gentleman put it, God only seems to separate from God's self, then is it possible that man only seems to separate from God too? Is it possible that sin is also only seeming to be different from God and that actually Sin is God divided into the illusion of Life or material being?

Ask yourself: What do trees have to do with the birth of Jesus? What is the significance of decorative eggs at easter? etc.

Most of the time I only saw religious related question are posted by christians... that makes me wonder how many buddhist, taoist or confuciousnist are there at answers yahoo? So I was thinking of a little survey... and make some new friends of the same religion.. to hit 2 birds with one stone. So please put down your religion (any chinese related) and your email address if you would (not forcing you). Maybe we could have some religious discussion together.

Christ was born when the sheperds were still living out in the field during warmer months and not in December.
Dec 25th was a pagan celebration time.
The Star of Bethlehem was created by Satan to lure astrologers sent by King Herod to report to him Jesus's whereabouts so Herod could have him killed not the school nativity play version of the wise men being there to honour Jesus.
Jesus was not a baby in a crib as traditionally told at that time but a toddler as Herod had children 2 years and under executed in an attempt to kill Jesus not just newborns.
Christmas is just commericalism and giving of presents is more of a social occasion rather than a religious time.
Jesus only asked his rememberance to be observed before he was put to death and not when he was born.
Christmas put pressure on people to go into debt and to entertain when they have little money to afford to do so and the revelry is not something that God would ask of people.

I consider myself as English first, British second, how about you, whichever part of the UK you are from, do you see yourself as British first, or as Scottish, Irish, Welsh or English.

if there was an allmighty an the super-natural existed don't you think we would already know an there would be no non-believers in the world? its not my choice to not believe i jsut can't help my thought on life an seeing whats real. with that said if there is a god an he sends me to hell for not being able to believe in a fairy tell then hes not such a good god anyways (which hes not there) but... thats besides the point.
