[well...this question would be more for people that believe in the existence of God hehe...]
ok...first of all i know that the 10 conmmandments say that "You shall not kill", so...what about God sending you to kill, and I'm talking about the jews, after they left Egypt, they were guided by God to kill other people...bla bla bla...so..what makes them so different from people these days who use violence in the name of God against others? 0_o" I just dont get it...
God sended them to kill, but Jesus said that we should be compassive to others...anyways...
i want oppinions about this matter...anything would be helpful :D

Here we go again. The "moderate" Muslims are demonstrating against an honest Pope who says religion must be based on reason, not violence instead of demonstrating against radical Islamists who do the violence. Do they understand that their voices of "moderation" will never be heard until they stop supporting their murderous brothers?

Ok here is another one! :)!
This is a god. 1. Who was the god of the Underworld, chaos, and the enemy of the sun? Was it Apophis, Aten, Baal, Benu or Bes.
(It was not Seth because he is also the ruler of the desert but not enemy of the sun, and it is not Osiris because he is the god of the dead and the Afterlife).


This is a goddess. 2. Was the divine personification of truth, order and justice. Was it Maat, Isis, Seshat, Tefnut, or Bat.

I found this in a rather old German book (Copyright 1944). It's a sticker type thing. What would this be used on?

Sorry about the horrible quality picture.

Thank you!

The Holy Quran : Chapter: 24 (Al-Nur), Verse:36
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[24:36] God is the light of the heavens and the earth. His light is as if there were a lustrous niche, wherein is a lamp. The lamp is inside a glass-globe. The globe is, as it were, a glittering star. The lamp is lit from the oil of a blessed tree -an olive - neither of the East nor of the West, whose oil well-nigh would shine forth even though fire touched it not. Light upon light! The Lord guides to His light whomsoever He pleases. And God sets forth parables for men, and God knows all things full well.

""it's just not an imprisonable or capital offense."" WHAT OFFENCE? WHO GETS OFFENDED?


BUT IF THE PERSON SURVIVES AFTER AN ATTEMPT,

Nobody cared about that person's life, and when HE tried to take it, SOMEONE else tries to prevent it. and put him in jail. When he gets out, he is sent to an asylum or set free. after all that he is again free to take his pathetic life.

If woman can abort kids in THEIR body. Why can't others end the life in THEIR OWN body?

Muslims consider Christ a prophet, yet Mohammed didn't come on the scene until a few hundred years after Christ did. It doesn't seem reasonable to me that Mohammed would be solely responsible for Christ's exalted position in Islam - so the first people who became Muslim must already have thought quite highly of Christ, which implies to me that the first Muslims were converts from Christianity.

Anyone know the history? Looking for sober answers, not vitriol or bile.

Thanks.
