What do the colors (three purple and one pink) candles on the Christian Advent wreath mean? What about the candles on the Manorah? Or for Kwanza? And if special candles are lit for Ramadan, what do they mean? I am curious as to the meaning of lighting candles for these different holidays.

It seems all too often lately (I am at home) I come into this office with coffee cup in hand and get on 'Answers'. Drinkin' too much coffee and spending too much time here. Maybe I should switch to decaf but, I love reg. coffee. I was recently bored with 'Answers' but, here I am again. Reading questions, spending a little too much time here when I should be out shopping. Am I just procrastinating? Maybe. Well, maybe it still has some fun in it. Dontcha think? : ) Then again, maybe I just don't want to go out there with the crowds. Do you feel the same way sometimes?

Now I realise it is a very stupid question to ask which religion is the best (some may disagree and claim theirs is), but I just wanted to know people's opinions...

We want to know who Avraham's mother was. His wife was Sara (also known as Yiska) and now we want to know the name of his mother.

Did he say "Can't we all just get along?" or "Can we get along?". I've seen it differently in different places.

I am aware that there are groups and societies of nephilim living both above and below ground. Many people are not aware they are nephilim. I know how you influence movies and games and the occasional clothing store. I know that some dance in raves in a similar fashion to your fighting. Are know of your places in government. But this message is for those who believe or question whether or not God will save you. I am looking for you. I am also looking for information on the chamber created by Hitler to manifest a nephilim's angel nature. So come out where ever you are.

I mean I understand their need to express their feelings and all that touchy-feely stuff, but why do they have to go on and on and on. Sometimes i just want to tell my gf to shut up, because it's constant ranting. I know there more guys out there who feel like this and are too afraid to speak, i know you guys ignore women when they talk alot, it's like the teacher from chralie brown.

There was a male caller on the Muslimah Dilemma programme 3/12/06 at 19:00, he was saying "that this is a strange world, you 3 sisters sitting there are wearing hijab, but mothers from other muslim families take their girls to the mosque after school, their little girls wear little scarves but the mothers do not wear anything, no cover" this man is supressing and depressing women. what does he means by that? do men want to take women rights away? i thought we had rights to choose whether to wear it or not. why are men getting involved and telling women what to do?

This was just posted in response to a question about the origins of Christians:

"Pagans should all be executed. The lies of these Devil worshipers are appauling!"

How can Christians claim they are a peaceful religion - and attack Islam so vehemently - when they have members who would actually assert that people like me should be executed?!

I was talking to a friend and he said that Catholics have their own prophets. Did they predict that Pope Benedict is the second to last Pope? And that the last Pope is Petras Romanos? What else did they predict? How accurate are they?

Is the Book of Shadows a certain text, or is it more like an empty notebook that you create yourself with the different things you want in it? Are there standard things that should be in the book? Is it a private book or able to be shared with other people? Thank you.
