Should the government legalize prostitution? I have an idea I wanted to bring up. If you think they should legalize it, should they also regulate it? I was thinking that what they should do is legalize it, regulate it, and use the welfare recipiants as the prostitutes. If they did this, then it would generate money for our government, people would get what they wanted, women would get welfare that they actually earned. I know they would have to work some things out like safety type issues and all. But generally don't you think this would be a good idea?? It's just a suggestion, if you don't think its a good idea, just say so, no need to get abusive. Thank You!

Muslims, Christians and Jews have same roots of belief i.e. all worship the same God of Abraham so as Muslims believe that Abraham was ordered to go to Mecca and rebuild the Kabba do the Christians and Jews too believe this?

New International Version (NIV)

33In any case, I must keep going today and tomorrow and the next day—for surely no prophet can die outside Jerusalem!
34"O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing! 35Look, your house is left to you desolate. I tell you, you will not see me again until you say, 'Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.'[a]"

Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart.

I have a problem w/ my mom and her expectations of God. I'm the type that believes that you have to at least do something on your part in order for God to help you. I think she believes He'll give immediate relief. What's your thinking?

If coal seams are supposed to be at least 100 million years old, why has carbon 14 been found in coal seams? This testing method means coal seams are thousands of years old, not 100 million years old. Why such a huge discrepancy?

I have a friend who owns a condo overlooking Lake Ontario and she is a successful businesswoman working for the public relations company.

Since I'm a hardworking Christian and I have God and Jesus in my heart will the rewards God is giving me in Heaven be much better than owning a condo overlooking Lake Ontario, going to plenty of rock concerts, owning lots of nice clothes, furniture, stereo equipment, owning a luxury car and going on nice vacations?

I wish that I can get rewarded the same way my friend does and it hurts me that I can't get the rewards my friend gets and I think we should both be rewarded equally for our hard work.

It's the new thing in India. At KFC's, MAC's, Domino's, music stores, phone helplines there are these young kids. They say, 'yes sir, yes ma'am' and are polite. But you ask them some info and they are blank.
At a music store I asked about an album Chicane Behind the Sun. The kid goes, you mean Shekanay, its Latin you know.
Then I was about WAP in my mobile. A kid says some rubbish, wasted my time, and asks me if I had what I wanted. Afterwards I figured it out on my own.

"...says the road to hell is very broad, the path to heaven is narrow and very few find it.."

Why would God create a universe where the majority goes to hell and very few go to heaven? Doesn't this seem cruel?

Comparing Christians to the Jews, it seems that Mohammed hated the Jews more. The Quran clearly states:

“Strongest among men in enmity to the believers wilt thou find theJews and Pagans; and nearest among them in love to the believers wilt thou find those who say, “We are Christians”: because amongst these are men devoted to learning and men who have renounced the world, and they are not arrogant.” Surah 5: 82

During his lifetime, Mohammed devoted much of his efforts to get rid of the Jews. He stated. “You (Jews) should know that the earth belongs to Allah and his apostle, and I want to expel you from this land (the Arabian Peninsula), so, if anyone owns property, he is permitted to sell it.” Al-Bukhari vol. 4:392

At that time, there were three Jewish tribes in Medina. Mohammed’s men besieged two of them, the Bani Qaynqa and the Bani-al-Nudair tribes. Their access to food supplies was blocked until they surrendered on Mohammed's terms. His terms for their lives to be spared were that they had to deposit all their belongings at a certain place for distribution among Muslims and then emigrate from Medina.

The third tribe, Bani Qurayza, was not as lucky. During the War of the Trench, Abu Sofyan led a siege against Mohammed’s forces. Afterward, it was alleged that Bani Qurayza agreed to provide help from within to Abu Sofyan's forces. The alleged help never materialized and the siege eventually ended. Nonetheless, Mohammed never forgave them for their willingness to help his enemies.

The Muslims turned against the Bani Qurayza tribe and blocked their streets for twenty-five days. Then the Jewish tribe expressed readiness to accept the surrender terms that had been afforded to the other two Jewish tribes. Their belongings were to be confiscated and they were to be granted safe conduct for their departure from the area10.

Mohammed, however, would not consent to this. Instead he appointed as an arbiter Saad iben Moaz, a man who was known to be on bad terms with Bani Qurayza. Saad ruled that all Bani Qurayza's men should be beheaded, that the women and children should be sold as slaves and that all their property should be divided among the Muslims. Trenches were dug in the bazaar of Medina for disposal of the eight to nine hundred Jewish bodies whom Mohammed and his men had spent the night slaughtering. (See Ibn Hisham: The Prophet's biography; vol. 2 pages 240 & 241).
