It was once believed that at the occurance of a particularly common event that one's soul was expelled, and that at the moment a demon could enter and take control of the body.

What is this natural event, which still envokes a "blessing' from those nearby?

Or is it just a history of those people that got misinterpreted over time and took on a life of its own?
Why would an all knowing, omnipotent god chose one small group of people on one insignifigant planet on the edge of a mediocre galaxy from among all the rest of the universe?

A woman can get anything she wants if she is nice and gives a men all the sex he wants. There are some decent men out there so don't take offense. I am lucky I am married to a wonderful man who puts other things first however he is still controlled by his needs to some extent. I am not a man hater only certain TYPES of men. I believe that womens liberation has taken away much of our power. Believe me we are powerful and one of the reasons IS that men are so controlled by their sexual needs. I think it is a sad thing that men are so like that. I I also believe that if you put a naked woman in front of the majority of men Married or not and IF they think they can get away with it they would jump on it. SAD SAD SAD. I understand some women are the same but not to the extent.

I feel that this goes out to Hottie who posted the question 'Why doesn't everyone speak English?' and goes in support to triviatm who I believe had a good opinion. I also believe that if you are going to travel to a foreign country where their first language is not English then a person should at LEAST know enough to get around. It is not the job of everyone in the world to learn English because it is a combination of a good portion of the European languages rolled up into one. I agree that if you do work in shops and the like in a foreign country that you should learn the language though.

I find it cute when schools and unis get exchange students from other countries who's first language is not English. Because then it's enriching to both you and them to teach them a small part of the English language and explain to them how the rules work even if you yourself don't understand y the rules are like that.

It is my understanding that Ancient Egypt was very different to the way it was written about in Exodus, that there were no slaves and that there is no record dof any of the "plagues" happening.

Am I wrong about this? Is there any extra-biblical evidence to back the Biblical version up?

And we all know God keeps his word.

Exodus 12:29
29Now it came about at midnight that the LORD struck all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sat on his throne to the firstborn of the captive who was in the dungeon, and all the firstborn of cattle.

2 Kings 2:23
Then he went up from there to Bethel; and as he was going up by the way, young lads came out from the city and mocked him and said to him, "Go up, you baldhead; go up, you baldhead!" 24When he looked behind him and saw them, he cursed them in the name of the LORD. Then two female bears came out of the woods and tore up forty-two lads of their number.

I was wondering if you think when God delivers you from an addiction you should still be tempted...

I have smoked for 8 years (a pack a day), and my husband and I recently rededicated our lives to God and decided to quit. Today marks 72 hours since I've quit, and it has been so hard. I almost bought cigarettes yesterday... but I didn't. I'm still so tempted though. Do you think it is normal to still be tempted even if God has delivered me from an addiction?

Genesis 3:1-5

1 Now the serpent was more crafty than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said to the woman, "Indeed, has God said, 'You shall not eat from any tree of the garden'?" 2 The woman said to the serpent, "From the fruit of the trees of the garden we may eat; 3 but from the fruit of the tree which is in the middle of the garden, God has said, 'You shall not eat from it or touch it, or you will die.' " 4 The serpent said to the woman, "You surely will not die! 5 "For God knows that in the day you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil."

The hebrew word for serpent is nachash which means burning one. The idea being that when a snake bit you the venom burned as it entered your body.

It makes more sense to me than some snake. The beasts of the field thing means it was smarter. Man is more cunning than the beasts too...

What are your thoughts?

The Debate over evolution vs. creation rages on. on one side you have the strict darwinian theorists and then you have the creationist who quote the bible like one would recite the alphabet.
I want everyone who responds to this to read my apologetic at http://www.geocities.com/patrickmaloney26/How.html then if you still feel that Creation is the end all be all and "solo scriptura" is what you believe then prove your point with reason. If your a darwinian then prove your point with reason. put some thought into it.

For the record I am a Catholic who believes in Creationism and I believe that Science can support my belief not that it refutes it. I do not argue the point with evolutionist that the earth is billions of years old in fact I agree.

No matter how many thumbs-down I'm going to get, you simply cannot make me believe in another way. There is nothing you can do or say that will stop making me a Christian.

Remember, Christians aren't perfect so we break the Ten Commandments too.

People know these things are wrong but they do them anyway. What are they really hoping to accomplish by doing these like these? Why do they insist on being the bad guys when they know they won't win in the end?

why do you confess your sins to man when you can go to God yourself. its like your putting that priest which is a man like anyone else, up there with God and thats not right. i kinda feel like basically he is telling you, your not good enough to speak with God but i am so tell me your sins and i will ask forgivness for you. BUT nobody can ask for forgivness but you.
