2 very close friends,

Your friend asks why you are out of breath. You say:
Option 1: 'I have just been exercising.'
Option 2: 'I am just exercising.'
For correct answer,I chose option2.Having refered to the key,I find it was a wrong option,I should have chosen option 1 for a correct answer instead.But,I am still confused,I think they both work here.

What do you think of it?Please help.

I have an english translation of the holy Quran that translates this verse like this:
ARABIC: Wa eza aradna an nohlika kariatan amarna motrifiha fafasako feha fahaqa Alliah alkowl fadamarnaha (Surat Al-Isra 17:16)
ENGLISH TRANSLATION:And when We desire to destroy a city, WE COMMAND its men who live at ease, AND THEY COMMIT UNGODLINESS therein, then the Word is realized against it, and We destroy it utterly. S. 17:16

i dont know arabic and relay on the english translation. according to the above verse ALLAH comands people to do evil.please read the arabic text and tell me if that is the case.

We know how planets are formed from gas dust and debris, and that is exactly how Earth was formed, Earth in a sense formed itself and all it's components were brought together over billions of years to form a planet, the same forces that formed our solar system and the galaxies of solar systems that form the universe.

Science doesn't answer all questions yet but science continues to add to our store of knowledge about earth and the universe, throwing our hands up and saying nobody knows how this or that happens yet so it must be God really explains nothing and adds nothing to our bank of human knowledge. It's more like saying you don't want to know how things came about because it spoils a supernatural idea of God you rather want to cling on to.

There are (at least) two passages in the Qur'an relating the announciation of Jesus' birth to Mary.


Behold! the angels said: "O Mary! Allah has chosen thee ...
Behold! the angels said: "O Mary! Allah gives thee glad tidings ...
-- Sura 3:42 & 45


Then we sent to her Our angel, and he appeared before he as a man in all respects. She said: "I seek refuge from thee to (Allah) Most Gracious: (Come not near) If thou dost fear Allah."
-- Sura 19:17-18

How many angels came to Mary? The Arabic uses the plural form, which means there were no less than three angels, but can also mean that there were actually four, or a thousand, or a million etc.!

Why does Mary only seek refuge from one of the angels as she only addresses one in Sura 19:18? Were the others not like men and threatening to her?

If Heaven exists beyond space and time, how do you measure when someone enters? And how do you know when you've enter? If there is no time, does that mean that everyone has always been there?

And if Heaven is just being with God, where is that exactly? Where IS God?

Veiled in flesh, the Godhead see. Hail the incarnate Deity. Pleased as man, with man to dwell: Jesus, our Emmanuel.

Mild, He laid His Glory by; born that man no more may die. Born to raise the sons of earth, born to give them second birth.

I know it's stereotyping, but I find it amazing that there are so many thin gay people.
