Does he really live up there in the North Pole? What does he do the rest of the year? Isn't he a lonely person? Does he wait and wait for this time of the year like little kids do? What's his personality like? In the sense, what does he like to eat? And, why isn't he married?

just like humans have son, God also has son. Doesnt that mean god has sperms. If they donot mean that son, that implies Jesus is just the creation of god. Why then they use the word SON to confuse the things.

So why do we still tolerate and encourage joking about religion and race and stereo-typing? Are what at such a desperate point to make the world more coherent that we must assign each race or religion its own set of characteristics and proclaim them as truth? Or in just joking, mock the cultural history and identity that certian people choose to recognize. Why must such people as carlos mencia and movies like borat become so famous and praised so that the impressionable minds of children can lose the distinction between truth and fiction? If the this attack on equality goes uninhibited from the minds of youth, the ability to determine what is simply funny and what is simply accepted becomes harder to realize. I know that these people have the freedom of speech to say what they choose to say; but to say something just to be funny and outrageous and have it dull the distinction between humor and bigotry is not worth it, the potential equality of the country is not worth it.

Why did the Catholic Church become so corrupt in the 1400s and 1500 and sell indulgences (forgiveness to other people)

Also, why did they try to execute people like Luther who believed in Jesus but didn't believe in their exact teachings?

Thanks.

I know it may sound crazy but I think that because of globalization the world is gradually becoming more alike. Eventually we will have a "one world culture" which will be a combination of all the cultures and borders will be pointless

What odds that my so-called life could become a movie? I identify with them because they didn't get written in order to make an extra few 1$'s but also because they were of lower-class origins.

Biblical scripture concerning a state of the world, before the Father (God) tells the Son Jesus its time to shorten the days of the believers before the tribulation of mankind begins, signaling the end of this world as we know it, and becomes a spiritual kingdom of which the Lord will reign for 1000 years before the final judgement of mankind and his wicked, sinful, disobedient, sinful ways, the lambs book of life and the eternal fervent heat, nashing of teeth, tormenting by Satins fallen angels, and no hope of ever seeing relief from the suffering for thousands of millinums, eternity. While this is occuring the saved and redeemed ones will be basking in the Lord's eternal Glory, happiness, ever refreshed grace, peace, joy never a sad moment only bliss with praise and worship for the one and only true creator of all things in all the universes, the Alpha and Omega of all I AM that I AM.

One day Apostle of Allah walked into his adopted son Zaid’s house. Zaid was not there but he caught a glimpse of his voluptuous and beautiful wife Zainab (she was apostle’s first cousin) in her birthday suit.

Tabari wrote:

"One day Muhammad went out looking for Zaid. Now there was a covering of hair cloth over the doorway, but the wind had lifted the covering so that the doorway was uncovered. Zaynab was in her chamber, undressed, and admiration for her entered the heart of the Prophet".

The admiration aroused him instantly, which Zainab also noticed and mentioned it to her husband Zaid later. He rushed to his father’s house and offered Zainab to him. Mohammed worried about possible bad press and refused to accept it. But Allah will not take no for an answer and insisted on their union.

Q 33:37 We gave her (Zaid’s wife) unto thee in marriage, so that (henceforth) there may be no sin for believers in respect of wives of their adopted sons”.

My idea is: Basically a service for parents which informs them if there is a party or more people there then agreed. I could take pictures and/or video and send it via email. Or just call whatever number is provided or even contact the police. Would you use this service and how much would you pay. Thanks

yes, so im not completly familiar with mormanism, and i am altogether confused.

I once had a morman man (two of them actually) come to my door ad "share the good news of Jesus christ" but this is perpelexing to me. im not sure if this is true, but i heard that mormans think that Jesus is the brother of lucifer, and had many wives.

I have heard of this morman "holy undergarments" which is to protect the temple worthy morman from sin. and then i ask myself this again, if Jesus died for the morman's sin, why would he need this?

if there are any latter day saints out there (i know you dont like to be called mormans, i dont know why either, if you could explain this that would be nice)
