Evolution happened and continues to happen. End of story.

What scares the fundies so much about science? It disproves the first few paras of Genesis - so what? Does your god deflate every time another scientic paper proving evolution is published?

Relax guys. Evolution is real and your god still exists, at least in your head.

There is a group of people on the earth that are called the alluminadi. are they righteous and do they serve the Will of God? or are they satanic and fill the world with conspiracies and ungodly acts. I know their is a Scripture that talks about 24 elders in heaven that rule with Christ. I believe these are the true aluminati, the true enlightened ones, but the ones on earth are corrupt and servants of satan. They borrow the name of the BETTER and defraud the world through their sorceries. see Rev 18:23

No doubt there will be countless questions on this today, so I might as well ask it too!

Should we, as a county open our arms to different cultures and traditions, as at the end of the day that is how Britain started in the first place. Or is it our duty to protect "British traditions"? In my opinion we have let British culture slip. Hopefully I don't come across as racist cause I'm not, but I am british and proud of it! It seems to me like sensible people are now overly concerned with not offending other cultural groups when they are neglecting their own. Shoud we therefore be seen as racists, or should we be seen as patriotic. Sorry if this offends, but I do believe more concern should be placed on keeping Britain British. A slightly pigheaded way of looking at it is; could we go to another county and ban or censor religous holidays, just as Christmas is being here?

Ah now I stopped, what do you guys think?

Well, I read that male sharks gang up on females to hold them still, so they can mate. Does that mean rape is okay too?
DUH?

During VH1's award show many racial slurs were made including the use of the "n" word. Must of the time was spent downgrading Micheal Richards. However, the presenter was black. Those attending were quite but many laughed. I was disappointed that the double standard was applied once again.

They used to say a comet was an omen of evil. And right after a comet
passed the Earth, the Black Death hit Europe.
Some scientists think AIDS entered our atmosphere when the Earth passed through a comets tail. And just like it only hit Europe the one time, it only
hit Africa and some Islands this time.
Before you start laughing "scientists"! Remember, science thinks all life was
brought here by comets!

Well, let's see. I lost my job a couple of months ago, haven't found work yet and I am looking every single day. My family is 1200 miles away, and I live alone with no friends. Money is extremely tight, and if I don't find a job very soon, I will be homeless. I am thankful that I don't have children having to deal with this situation, that would be horrible...but it's bad enough. I used to make a very nice living and always splurged on my family and always sponsored a family at Christmas, and I enjoyed that. Christmas has always been my favorite time of the year...but this year I am depressed to the point getting out of bed is often a big accomplishment. I have cried so much my eyes hurt, and I try to not feel sorry for myself because I am thankful for my health and I am fortunate. What would you do if this happened to you at Christmas and how would you handle it? I am not looking for handouts, as they would be refused....just looking for some words of encouragement

Even in death, with her eyes wide open, the Gorgon had her power/powers. The evil king looked her straight in the eye/eyes and turned to stone.

This is about Medusa turning people into stone. Which should be chosen for each option?

why is it that the one who administers the toxin first cleans the skin with alcohol like they do when giving shots or taking blood? It's not as if there are any concerns about getting an infection. I know this is a bit of a morbid question, but I'm curious to hear your opinions.

In Judaism and Islam perspective ...

all religions' belief are welcome anyway.

In religious context please explain the following questions below:

1. Why is our motivation to seek people's admiration and recognition is a form of worshiping our ego ?

2. what is the "ego" in this deeper context?

3. Why is the ego seeking the people's admiration and recognition?

4. What makes the "ego" a false god that rivals the Supreme God?
