criticise Islam becoz of the prophet(s.a.w) marriage to Aisha(r.a). When here age mentioned in hadith was not a certain fact!Hadiths vary in what her age was at time of marriage. Also coz the prophet (s.a.w) had about 9-11 wives, when Quran asks men to go up to four wives only!

Then how do you know that Solomon/Sulaiman didnt hav wives that was still young girls?As it was customend that daughters were married off when they reached the age of puberty (get menstruation).

And how different was the two prophet's marriages, since both did it for mostly political reasons (to unify tribes and/or countries)?

Solomon had 700 wives and 300 concubines.Why don't you then criticise him for being lustful like some of critise the prophet?


Peace

Christians claim to be honest, caring, and understanding but we are a world of lying, violence, and confusion. Satan is the father of lies and the author of confusion. People have got to realize that Satan has gained control of the churches and come together to go against him. People don't even take the time to take a look at the Bible for themselves. They just believe what some preacher tells them. If half the people would take the time to look for themselves they would see. I pray there is someone out there listening because our country needs help before it is too late. If there is anyone out there who agrees and would like to talk about it email me at naepeace@yahoo.com. We have got to do what it takes to reveal the truth to save our nation.

Would your parents die for you?
Would your parents turn their back on you if you refuse to acknowledge them?

heard of a World war II story ofa mothers whom was trapped in a frozen winter. While they were hiding under a bridge from the Japanese Invasion.
She took all ther cloths off and wrap around the her baby so the her child could live while she frooze to death.

Another was a mother whom turn herself in, because her son had commited murder. And yet her son still refuses to acknowledge her as her mother.

Our parents having this great passion ito forgive us in whatever we do and provide us never ending love.

And yet, Jesus procliam
"Love me more than your mother and father?"
"I am the only way to heaven"
Does it mean those who does not acknowledge him will not be his children?
How can this cliam that jesus love is more than our parents love for us?

If people will to refuse and not acknowledge christ, why wouldnt he posess that great passion to forgive us?

to discuss a myriad of subjets like science, math, history, engineering, medicine, the list could go on and on, his level of knowledge would be like conversing with a 2 year old today. Why then do so many people take such blind faith in the writings of 3000 year old men who's knowledge of the meaning of life would be limited only to their imagination.

believe in the writings of a sci-fiction writer. Who they now believe is a prophet.

i suppose the idea of a mortal being a prophet isnt new but still... who here thinks our souls are aliens trapped in a mortal existance?

Supposedly there is this soul thing that is unique.

If 2 souls had the same DNA and lived the exact same experiences would they grow to be different?

I don't mean twins. I mean the exact same experiences.

I work in an office environment so at times it is normal for me to answer or make calls to others. Problem is, I sometimes need to muster up this form of 'courage' before making a call. Usually occurs with strangers. I will take at least a minute or two, walk around, take a deep breath, and pick up the receiver. Even questions to ask, I'll need to jot them first on paper and put them by my side. Short conversations are fine, but I may start getting a little jittery when it gets a little longer.

I also have a problem talking face to face with people of higher authority, eg; my boss. Gets nervous, jittery, a little stammering and all that. Cut it short, I can't be fluent.

Is there a way to fight this ? And what causes it ?

Why are Christians still following wealthy and politically-connected preachers, two thousand years after Jesus drove the moneychangers out of the temple?

People for the most part will not say anything negative about other religions they way they do about Christianity. Is this not a form of discrimination?

I didnt think this was cute or funny, infact I told him this is a big insult and he got mad at me, I have seen this happen to 2 male friends of mine before and they were on the down-low, and never told anyone what they were secretly doing but died a few years later from Hiv and aids, what would you think and tell them if this was your friend..

This wiccan girl I know celebrates something called Christmas Evil every year. She and her friends got the idea from someone on the net, but they added an element that I don't agree with (of course, being Catholic, that's not the only thing I don't agree with).

In the middle of calling the quarters, praising the Goddess and passing out chocolate santas, this girl added the element of burning a christian prayer card with either the picture of Jesus or Mary on it. I don't think that's right. She says she does it to "purify herself and her friends from the taint of the christians all around her".

Have you ever heard of anyone else doing such a thing? I don't think this is normal and I doubt anyone else does this. I'd value some advice for the next time I talk to her.

Why does our society have such a double standard regarding this substance. Publicly its an evil thing that supposedly leads to bad endings. But LOTS of people including our parents have used it with no ill effects. IS THIS GOVT PROPAGANDA? Is there a further reaching implication that the govt sees that we as responsible adults dont?
