Cons
* To many religion, homosexual is considered a sin
* It would weaken the meaning of marriage
* It would weaken the meaning of the traditional family values.
* It would cause confusion in the legal aspect of marriage. It may bring many other legal questions about marriage: multiple wives, no age limit, etc.

In the Name Of Allah, Most Compassionate Ever Merciful

I quote from Bible


"But I tell you the truth, it is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Paraclete shall not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you." John 16:7

Muhammad" meaning "the one who praises" or "the praised one" is almost the translation of the Greek word Periclytos!!!.

In the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, and 16:7. The word 'Comforter' is used in the English translation for the Greek word Paracletos which means advocate or a kind friend rather than a comforter.

Paracletos is the warped reading for Periclytos. Jesus (pbuh) actually prophesised Ahmed by name. Even the
Greek word Paraclete refers to the Prophet (pbuh) who is a mercy for all creatures.


Now the question is EVEN AFTER READING THIS WILL YOU DENY THE TRUTH!!!

I'm kind of having a slightly hard time knowing when to use "que" for something to mean "that" verses using "eso" to mean that. I think that I normally use "eso" whenever my sentence has something to do with a person directly. But "que" whenever I'm referring to a thought or emotion. I'm not sure, since "que" can also mean "what". Any suggestions for this rule of Spanish grammar?

I think Jesus was god like man, a good man, gentle man, and kindhearted man. And he was tortured very cruel manner but as Jesus was kindhearted God like man he prayed to God, as he was devotee of God to forgive that sinner even if they are torturing him. It proves that how Jesus was God like man and how he was kind hearted man. And it proves that how that people were cruel that they hang Jesus by so cruel manner. And I think God the father of Jesus will never forgive that people who tortured his son so badly. Body of Jesus is dead but his soul his spirit must be alive. I am not Christian but a Hindu who respect of the Son of God Jesus.

The kippah you use says much about you...
"In Israel wearing a kippah also has a social significance. While wearing a kippah shows that you are somewhat religious, not­wearing one is like stating, "I'm not religious." The style of kippah in Israel can also indicate political and religious affiliations. Classical orthodoxy uses a large, smooth, black one shaped like a bowl. Many Hasidim use large black felt or satin, and a "rebellious son" may wear a slightly smaller black kippah to show his independence while remaining in the Classicist camp. Another play on this rebellion is to wear a knitted black kippah. This is also usually used to confuse people as to where you stand. "

So.. if you wanna use a "neutral" kippah, wich kind of kippah would you use??

This is a serious question for me. While I agree that civil union is a cold word why don't homosexuals call their union something besides marriage. Marriage is between a man and a woman. They do not label themselves heterosexual to be like everyone else. Nor do they decide who will be the wife and who will be the husband. Why the obsession of the word marriage? Isn't declaring homosexuality about your individualism and difference? Why not have a new word to mean the union of two people in love?It seems that in terms of rights the courts have given everyone the same rights in terms of marriage/civil union.

That when we christian ask a question concerning where things come from, non-believers are quick to reference a scientific PROCESS?The scientific process still doesnt explain where all the stuff came from;it just attempts to explain how the things interact.
The question is where did the stuff actually come or originate from if there was nothing in the beginning? I've only seen one person that actually gave attempted to answer this question. The answer was "well they must of always existed." Let me point out that this answer alludes to God;at the burning bush God told Moses "I Am that I Am"Meaning He always was,always is, and always will be.God is the only one that has always existed;so in a way that answer is admitting to there being a God.
So. Do non-believers actually have a good answer for where the materials actually come from?Dont just tell me about the processes,cuase I've heard it all before. Who can atually put forth an answer for where the materials come from outside of God?

Serious answers only, please.

At church, the congregation is served by what I do. God is glorified and the congregation tells me they appreciate my service. The elders & pastors are non-supportive managers. They play favorites and have “clicks” with certain people. It is unfair. On one hand the congregation is blessed, on the other the pastors and elders seem like Pharisees. Would you leave a church over such issues or stay to serve the congregation and ignore the political "junk"? Thanks.

Why do U Christians believe in the concept of Holy Spirit with Divine nature when Bible says

"But I tell you the truth, it is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Paraclete shall not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you." John 16:7

This verse clearly tells us that the coming of the Paraclete was subject to the departure of Jesus. Whereas, the "Holy Spirit" was already present. It was in existence since the day of the Creation and was hovering upon the surface of the earth (Genesis 1:2). It was also present with the prophets of the Old Testament. The "Holy Spirit" happened to be present at River Jordan when Jesus Christ was being Baptised by John the Baptist, in the early part of his ministry. So, how could Jesus say; "but if I go, I will send Holy Spirit"?

Think about it. The people that have had near death/out of body experiences always tell the same story. First they see themselves from above, then they see a light, then they go into it, meet dead relatives, are told its not their time, and go back.
Now some people say its just chemicals released as the brain dies, but listen to this: you know how i said that they see themselves from above?
Well, some 'die' on operating tables, and when they 'come back' they can describe the operation perfectly. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE IF THE BRAIN ISNT WORKING?

And what of these people who have memories of a 'previous life'?

And through all those, there is no mention of a god.

I think there may be something after death

Still, better to think theres nothing and be pleasantly surprised.

P.S. I'll add some sources to this when i find some,
