I have proof that is untampered with and which the Vatican forgot to sweep under the rug. In fact, in a mind with good common sense, once this fact has been brought to light, the whole edifice comes down like a house of cards.

In January, I will begin transitioning from male to female. I'm taking it slow at first, but my mind is made up. I want to live the rest of my life as a woman. I know this is a very general question, but I would apreciate any advice from women who have done this. Any tips or hints as to what to expect or make my transition smoother would be greatly apreciated. I am in therapy right now, so I am not looking for either approval or rejection. I have already gotten plenty of both. I am just trying to gather as much information as possible. Thanks in advance.

Because he was afraid that they too would become godlike. I have 2 questions. How did God not know whether or not they would become godlike (God knows everthing)? Why didn't God stop the space program? Did God move?

Only two scenarios are presented. Curious to know what you think.


The first man: an intellectual thinker who thinks his way out of believing in a God? This man surely utilized all that God meant for Him to utilize--the intellect and reason, but unfortunately he did not "get it" about God Himself. He lived a compassionate live for others.


The second man: he is very humble and actually border on mental retardation, but he loved God all he could. Unfortunately, he couldn't judge much for himself using the excellent reasoning God gave to mankind. But he "felt" it in his heart that he thought God was simply "good". He was at times, unabe to control his impulses, however. He would be indulgent in some sensual pleasures because he couln't help it. He wasn't very bright.

I volunteer to ring the bell for the salvation army. Lots of people keep their head down or walk around. Why not just a smile and hello even if you can't donate?

When a man sells his daughter as a slave, she will not be freed at the end of six years as the men are. If she does not please the man who bought her, he may allow her to be bought back again. But he is not allowed to sell her to foreigners, since he is the one who broke the contract with her. And if the slave girl's owner arranges for her to marry his son, he may no longer treat her as a slave girl, but he must treat her as his daughter. If he himself marries her and then takes another wife, he may not reduce her food or clothing or fail to sleep with her as his wife. If he fails in any of these three ways, she may leave as a free woman without making any payment. (Exodus 21:7-11 )

I want to scuba the Barrier Reef, see the Northern Lights, Anasazi cave dwellings, and check out the Pyramids.

Accepting the idea that there is a God who is:

a. Omnipotent
b. Omniscient
c. Immortal

You have to accept a few other things also. There is nothing that you do that he didn't know you'd do before he'd even created you. In fact, there is no variable to who you are because God created you in a way that would end up with X result. So the whole concept of freewill goes out the window.

There is no way that you could please this God, because there is nothing that you can do that will benefit him or surprise him in anyway. He basically made you to end up with X result.

Christians often talk about how they had a laugh with their God for X reason, but the reality is that there isn't a joke God hasn't seen or already heard. In fact, considering the repetitiveness of human nature, the joke you thought was funny, was probably one he heard or seen a million times before. Jokes get old.

has anyone heard of the allegory of an angel who fell from heaven with 1/3 of angels because he wanted to like God? Where did this myth come from?

Why is it a sin to want to be like God? Isn't it flattering to God that we should strive to be like Him? To endeavor to highest potentials.... isn't that NOBLE, not sinful!?

I mean, they dont believe in God nor Jesus, which is what the holiday (believe it or not for most of you) is actually for. I mean, yeah for the presents, but why dont you celebrate hanakka, hey thats 8 days that alot of gifts!
