My question is

Why are you here?

What is the purpose YOU are here asking and answering questions?

You have come so far now in the short history of life on planet Earth. The darkness is exposed and I see many see it. "satan" has become fat and sleepy and lost it's hold on you?
You are free to chose.
What will you do?

Is it because Wiccan's aren't as stressed, or are happier because of their religion, or is that just the group this religion attracts?

I posed this as part of an answer for another question, but I think it's worth posting here.

People call Evolution a theory.

Atomic theory is a theory as well. Science doesn't create "laws" today... we deal with theories.

So, Evolution shouldn't be believed because it is "just a theory"... Ok.

You're sitting next to a nuclear bomb. Atomic "theory" predicts that sufficient fissionable material, compressed, will cause a nuclear explosion. It's a "theory", and NOT a law.

You have a telephone beside you. It can dial only two numbers, and is pre-programmed. You can make only one call.

The first number is to a nuclear scientist who has a "theory" of how to stop the bomb.

The second number is to a famed and trusted "prayer warrior".

Who do you call?

if I know all about the Muslim religion and pretend to be Muslim will they let me go? I might end up in Iraq with my job and I'm wondering if I should study up on Islam just to be safe. Thanks.

I got into a bit of an argument with a friend. He's a creationists and I'm a Christian that believes in evolution.

He doesn't really think I'm a Christian because I believe in it. Is it scripturally accurate to say people who believe in evolution can't be Christian?

I need a copy of a poem about a man who dies and was a veteran. It told about his life and as he goes to heaven God says to him Good Job, my good and faithful servant. Or I need something to read or say at the funeral of a friend who was never baptized, yet lived a good life with a beautiful family.

Just tell me, if you are a real fortune teller, tell me if I am the Antichrist predicted in the Christian Bible. Just feel out with your senses and tell me if the name Peter Melillo means anything to you.

I am gay and I know that the Church teaches that homosexual acts are wrong. I agree with this. However, I wonder if it would ever be possible for me to develop a heterosexual relationship (even though I am very gay) and if so, would it be morally wrong to pursue it because God made me gay? I guess what I am saying is do I have to be single or might I, through some freak chance, find a guy and be able to fall in love with him and marry?

Although the Bible condemns homosexuality (Lev. 18:22), the Bible also condemns tattoos (Lev. 19:28).

Some Christians say that they do not hate homosexuals due to personal bigotry, but that homosexual's actions are condemned in the Bible and are wrong. If they are truly basing their view of what is right and what is wrong on what the Bible states, why are people with tattoo's not told that they are wrong? Since getting a tattoo is clearly a choice, why are tattooed people not condemned and all the hatred only shown towards homosexuals?

He used a stone for his pillow, put on coarse clothes and ate rough food. His condiment was hunger. His lamp at night was the moon. His shade during the winter was just the expanse of earth eastward and westward. His fruits and flowers were only what grows from the earth for the cattle. He had no wife to allure him, nor any son to give grief, nor wealth to deviate (his attention), nor greed to disgrace him. His two feet were his conveyance and his two hands his servant.

I was told that it hold many gods inside and that all who worship it are told it's only one god. Just to understand it's meaning. I believe if an almight god that wants my worship also would like a friendship with people. And that he would share who he is. What do you think.

Sometimes I just sign onto IM so that my friends can easily reach me if they really need or want to. I might not start a conversation the whole time I am on, even if I notice that a good friend is online. (I like chatting with my friends, but don't need to do it every day, especially if I have just seen or spoken to them.) Is this rude? What if, instead of a friend, it was a boyfriend/girlfriend?

My friend is an absolute retard and he thinks he is certain that he is the fabled Antichrist. What are some things that occur in the Antichrist's childhood or some physical traits of the Antichrist that I can use to prove that he is NOT the Antichrist?

when we look at the sun we see the earth orbiting the sun, and the moon obriting the earth. if gravity were true, shouldnt our moon be orbiting the sun??? oh better yet, how come a planet way out in the distance such as neptune will orbit the sun, yet its moons will not orbit the sun??? something is wrong here, even at thise immense distances the moons will orbit the planets and not the sun, yet the suns "gravity" is strong enough supposedly to keep the planets in orbit.


why is it, only planets have orbits?? you could put a space shuttle in outter space and a astronaut will not orbit it. you could put the smallest pebbble into outter space and it will not orbit the space shuttle. why is this???? if gravity were true then surely such small objects would orbit larger ones, especially in space.
