Have u read the history of Justinian (when he became a king [527–565])?Have u know about what he did to the paganism (Manicheans&Sabbatians)? Have u read a book by Procopius, a historical person in Byzantine era, The Secret History, about Justinian&his wife,Thedora,&really good 4 ppl like Pope Benedict XVI and I don’t think Pope has read this book because he is lack of knowledge about his religion’s history. What Justinian did to people that believe in Hellenism, people that has not been Baptist yet and then who is not convert to Xtian? Read also the history of Mozarabs, Cordoba (Spain)&their “Visigothic Code/Canon Law”. Then read a book, “The Original Work Bartoleme de Las Casas, A Brief Account of the Devastation of the Indies” about wat Pope Alexander IV, Christopher Columbus & Xtian army did?I hope sum of Xtian (especially Pope) has read these books because if they never read this, they should shame wit non-Xtian that has read these book. All these books are not written by Muslim!

I need music for a business that makes no references to ANY religious icons, to include Jesus, God, Allah, Wise Men, Bethlehem, Christmas, Christmas trees, Santa Clause, St. Nicholas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa

What is OK is references to snow, snowman, family, family members, food, love, laughter, sleighs, sleds, garland.

It's bad that we've had a lot of problems lately. i know that I don't understand you, but you also don't completly understand me. we both come from very different backgrounds & it's hard understanding each other.There is a lot of things that i want to know about you. a lot. Sometimes your almost like a mystery to me. I don't want you to think that I don't like you because I don't do cute things for you. to me proving my love for you doesn't only include doing cute things for you and if you truly loved me I don't think that it's a good enough reason to have broken up with me.
I want you to understand my parents. In my past i've lied a lot to her, said a lot of bad things to her and she dound out a lot about that i never wanted her to. She is very overprotective and is always making sure I am where i say i will be. She has no trust for me. I always argue with her and to go and see you takes a lot. I have to lie a lot and makes sure she thinks i say where i will be.

I would really like to attend the university, but i am not catholic. Also, i wouldn't be attending just to play a sport there, I just think it is a really nice place with good morals and stuff. I'm not really a religious person, but i think that mayber submerging myself in a strong religious school would help me in life. If i do need to convert, could i do it an the university? Thanks for the help!

Was out tonight at a gay club the day before my 26th Birthday and was waiting on my own for a couple of my friends to arrive. Went to the toilet, came back to where I was sitting and was informed by the bouncer that apparently I'd been seen taking drugs in the bogs and would I leave the club? i've never taken drugs in my life - all i was doing was applying some vaseline (to my lips!). they searched me, obviously found nothing on me and said i could go back in the club, but i was so pissed off i went home - and what's especially annoying is that some of my mates were off their heads on god knows what and they're still quite happily there having a good night and i'm back at home on bloody answers! not quite sure what the question is here, but had to get it off my chest! wouldn't you be pissed off?! what should I do? (if anything?!)

Jehovah God "supposedly" has given us free will. Why then does he command we love him? How can you command someone to love you? Isn't that like forcing them to love you?

All these things Jehovah God/Jesus Christ commands of us. If it is truly, "...for freedom that Christ has set us free...," then why all the commandments? Why are they simply not "suggestions" if Jehovah God truly wants us to have free will?

Why must we wake up early in the morning, go to work until the evening, come home, eat, say goodnight to our children, watch an hour of TV or spend an hour on the 'net, go to bed, and get up and do it all again tomorrow? Why?

Jesus (pbuh) never preached trinity or redemption or worship of the holy ghost or worship of himself.

Jesus (pbuh) is mentioned in the bible as the son of MAN 87 times and as the 'son of god' at least13 times. that's almost 8 more times!

The son of man was also a figurative speech meaning the noble servents of God.

Matt 5:9
"blessed are the peacemakers for they shal be called the sons of God"

your opinions?

You wouldnt believe who's been in my nightmares lately. Jonbenet Ramsey!

Ever since I found out about Jonbenet's murder, I've been very interested in it.

I told my friends I thought she was trying to get through to me to help me solve the mystery of who killed her.

Last night I had a nightmare/dream which is insanely rare for me because I hardly ever remember my dreams unless they make a huge impact on me.

Jonbenet (in my dream) was sad/mad looking and was almost like she wanted to talk to me maybe?

I want to learn if and how I can contact her out of my dreams because I usually dont remember my dreams.

If anyone has any websites or anything, that would be extremely helpful.

& no, I'm not on drugs or anything so it couldnt have just been my mind!

We all belive in the same god.
Were all people.
We all have arms, legs, feet, and a head.
All churches say prayers.
All churches do baptizim.
All churches have some kind of sin forgiving worship.
