Do hookers and promiscuous women wear such biblical makeup and garments?
Sirach 26:9-10. "The whoredom of a woman may be known in her haughty looks and eyelids. If thy daughter be shameless, keep her in straitly, lest she abuse herself through overmuch liberty."
"For from garments cometh a moth, and from women wickedness. Better is the churlishness of a man than a courteous woman, a woman, I say, which bringeth shame and reproach." (Sirach 42:13-14)

To a small child over and over and over again, he would believe me, right? As his mother/closest guardian? As the most trusted force in his world?

How is this any different than indoctrinating children with religion rather than having them choose independently whether or not they believe by giving them classes in intellectual scrutiny? Not when they're 2, of course (a 2 year-old should believe that his Cookie Monster doll will protect him from the darkness). Perhaps at some point mid-elementary school?

Sure, you believe it (your religion) and it is, of course , the "true religion", because you know that, because it's the truth, because it says so in a book. Now why not give your child the freedom of 'choice' (as the Abrahamic god has given you, which, it seems, is the 'choice' he gives (the universal) you of granting eternal life only to those who believe that his son is God or kills in His name.)

why is it that YOUR bible says to lead by example, and be a light upon a hill? yet when a woman obviously not feeling happy, who is looking for encouragement asks you if she's a good person, you preach to her, instead of reassuring her?? seriously, why would you tell her she is taking her and her daughter to hell?? WHY?? is THAT what christianity is about? scaring people, and making them feel bad on a bad day? kicking them when thier down? why would you not instead show tolerance, and support her? why not preach later??

I am sorry to ever have called myself a christian, the way you have behaved is UNchristian and just plan mean.

so WHAT do you have to say for yourselfs??

ANY apologies??

Quotes from the Catholic Encyclopedia.
"The pope is of so great dignity and so exalted that he is not a mere man, but as it were, God, and the vicar of God"
"The pope is of such lofty and supreme dignity that, properly speaking, he has not been established in any rank of dignity, but rather has been placed upon the very summit of all ranks of dignities"
"Hence the pope is crowned with the tripple crown, as king of heaven, and of earth and of the lower regions"
Moreover the superiority and the power of the Roman pontiff by no means pertain only to heavenly things, earthly things, and things under the earth, but are even over angels, than whom he is greater"
"So that if it were possible that angles might err in faith, or might think contrary to the faith, they could be judged and excommunicated by the pope"
"The pope can modify devine law" can he?
Can he actually change Gods law?

There are many photos with SATAN's face appearing in the smoke. That means that the evil trapped within the walls of WTC was released with this attack. Don't these photos of Satan at the world Trade Center catastrophe tell us that the current seat of Satan's power is the World Trade Center? Don't these photos depict Satan being awakened from his hiding place in the World Trade Center? For it is the international bankers who operate from Fed, the CFR and the World Trade Center who create first, second and third world debt. Usury according to the Bible is Satan's method for enslaving the world under his priesthood, the accountants and bankers of the world (IMF, World Bank Group, WTO). All of this will usher in 666 which is an economic mark of commerce according to the Book of Revelation (Ch 13,17). This mark will also be a religious affiliation of worship which will damn the soul eternally of all who partake we are told.

Stop Hate 2000 Newsletter June 8, 2007

There is a storm of controversy over President Bush’s plans to appoint James W. Holsinger as the United States Surgeon General. In a press release from the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, Holsinger’s opposition to gay people is outlined. The article indicates Holsinger “promoted ‘reparative therapy,’” which is alarming. If Holsinger believes in ex-gay therapy, the United States could be in the position of having a Surgeon General who is endorsing what is generally considered to be unethical medical/therapeutic practices. Given the fact that the Surgeon General promotes the general health and well-being of all people, the possible appointment of a man who might still hold potentially therapeutically harmful beliefs about gay people causes concern. People can change their opinions. We hope James Holsinger has changed his opinion regarding ex-gay counselling. We are not certain what Holsinger’s current beliefs are regarding ex-gay counselling. We encourage residents of the United States to research into Holsinger’s beliefs, and to contact their Representative, Senator, and the White House with any concerns or opinions they have about Holsinger serving as the Surgeon General. The Stop Hate web site page “How You Can Help has a section on political action. In that section, one can click to email the White House. There are also links to Representatives and Senators.

Not only is that a wrong argument, and completely ignoring the fringe benefits of having some population being homosexual (those not having children can help others raise children in various ways by being useful to society), but why would Christians argue that evolution would select against homosexuality?

I know you're real keen on proving they weren't "born that way" and instead chose to be sinful, but aren't you forgetting how much you hate evolution?

"Sua presença é um presente para o mundo
Você é unico(a) e só há uma pessoa igual a você
Sua vida pode ser o que quiser que seja
Viva os dias, apenas um de cada vez
Conte suas bençãos, não seus problemas
Você os superará, aconteça o que acontecer
Dentro de ti há muitas respostas
Compreenda, tenha coragem, seja forte
Não imponha limites a si mesmo...
Muitos dos teus sonhos estão para serem realizados.

Did you choose to be heterosexual, or did you find that you were uncontrollably attracted to the opposite sex?

If you say you CHOSE (as many recently answered this question) does this mean you have homosexual tendencies, but you choose to ignore them and be heterosexual? Please explain your choice if this is your answer.

Why do some people think it is necessary to be rude to prove a point. I think we could all understand each other better without the dumb ignorant comments about each other.

Really, how can you prove your point by acting like a idiot?

As a christian, don't you think it is easier to convince a non believer by being nice. by showing them how Jesus makes a difference in our life?

you know you have the Father, the Word, and the Holy ghost and you say they are all one.

this is crazy. no matter what, in your mind there will still be 3 distinct images in your mind.

if i say, the Father, you will imagine an old man with big white beard sitting over the earth in the heavens.

if i say the Word, you will imagine a young man with blonde hair and blue eyes and nice beard who looks handsome and attractive.

if i say the holy ghost, you will imagine a spirit, a white ghost flying and sometime that might have vapourized.

if you still say you have one god, you are lying becos they re 3 different physical images you have in your mind.

if you have 3 identical triplets, and one commits murder, you cant hang all 3 becos you can say that they are different persons.
