So there was enough genetic material to repopulate the earth with Noah's group and the animals on the arc. This sounds like more of a fable than a bibilical fact. Are you sure this isn't a metefore for something?

1. If your belief is true, how did the universe get here. (I mean something had to make it)

2. If evolution is true (like you nuts believe)then why isn't it still going on today?

3. How come we can't find any intermidate species?

4. How could we have evolved from intermidate species, if none are alive today and we can't find any fossils or remains.

5. How did oxygen get on earth, when there had to be plants to create oxygen.

6. How could we, something so complex, evolve from a one celled bacterium.

Awnser these question, if you have any for me I will be happy to answer then

I just read in the paper that churches are using ATMs to receive donations. The pastor who originated this concept called them "Automatic Tithe Machines." What is the forum's take on this concept?

I truly don't get it. I dont mean to offend -but I find it racial. I know we live in a America but everywhere you look there are Asians opening businesses for the sole reason of selling Black Hair Care products exclusively to blacks- Getting rich off of African Americans. I have been to such stores and half the time they don't acknowledge your presence except when you give them YOUR cash. They are cold and ignorant & plus they don't even assist you. Now, sometimes, they will hire black employees. I will never shop at a beauty store owned by them. If anything, African Americans should be selling the products. Just think about it! They don't even sell Caucasian hair care-ONLY AFRICAN AMERICAN. Before you shop at their stores-think about how you making them richer. Unbelievable! It's amazing how a group of people come to America(whether born or not) opens businesses that caters to an entirely different race esp. since hair is a sensitve issue.

After months on this board, my prior assumption that most Christians were decent people was eroding. Then I had lunch today with a Christian friend. We had a very intellectual discussion - that had nothing to do with the usual subjects discussed here. It was quite refreshing.

I have decided there are three primary attrributes to Christianity today, to which all philosophies, scriptures, etc. can be divided (I dislike pigeon-holing, but please bear with me): (1) "love thy neighbor," which includes all genuine charitable works that do not correspond to recruitment - the best side of Christianity, (2) "smite thine enemies," which includes all the negatives, ranging from historical persecutions to today's anti-gay BS, and (3) "We're the only 'true' path," which may be well-intentioned, but frankly comes across as smug and arrogant. It seems to me that American Christianity used to be about #1, but today is more about #2 and #3. True? Or is it just that #2 and #3 are more vocal?

i often feel overwhelmed by stress or emotional strains and in order to feel "better" (incontrol and just to feel really) I cut my self sometimes. If Im doing it to fell better (purpose) and the circumstance is I fell bad then shouldn't it be okay because the three component of an act are act itself (morally good, bad or neutral) purpose (morally good or bad) and circumstance.

I have no one who will talk to me without throwing my words back at me later. Thats what my mother does. If later I dont agree with her she calls me abnormal. It hurts coz she says I can lean on her but I cant.

When ppl tell me went out my feelings to God I dont know the answer to my problem...Coz I dont understand how God wants me to solve my problem.

I feel like something is stuck in my throat. I dont know what God wants me to do..How can I communicate with him? Coz if I understand the correct stuff..why doesnt the problem seem to get solved?

Im a Muslim.
