They do some crazy stuff and some of it is fake of course. But some of it comes from a powerful being. Or maybe they are possessed by demons. What do yall think?

I have been in this section quite a bit and am just wondering (out of curiousity and concern) why this is just a debate between Christians and non-Christians. Nothing is ever resolved and I constantly see hateful and impatient comments. This should be a place to explore, to ask repectful and kind questions without having to worry about being chastised. Without finger pointing, why do you think this is so?

It's not like he's a God, he's a human being. He might live his life according to the Bible but I just don't understand why people worship one human being, he can't walk on water. Can anyone tell me why he means so much to so many Catholics?

explain this to me. because the way i see it, god is omniscient and omnipotent, which means that when he created both satan and man, he knew full well what was going to happen and yet he created them anyway. so it IS ultimately his responsibility, whether satan or free will is the cause of evil.

i mean, if i KNEW that my husband was going to get shot if i sent him to the grocery store, and i sent him anyway, would i not be held somewhat responsible for what happens?

Let's see their are a couple reasons why I think my grandpa's house is haunted:

My cousin claims to have seen a pale white man in the basement, he said the man didn't have anything on his head just hair and a mouth and when he saw the man the man just waved his hand and said "hi".

When putting a pool away in the same basement, my uncle without looking (he was alone in the basement) was about to turn off a lightswitch in a closet and said "I felt a very cold hand grab my hand so i rapidly ran outside"

My family once heard something heavy fall down from the attic to the floor above the basement, but LOUD, they searched and searched but no explanation.

My aunt says she feels someone "lay" down on her while she sleeps, she says it's a possible old man who wants to give her money.

My grandpa in the morning says the blender turns on by itself.

When my parents were getting ready to sleep they saw a strange shadow outside the room in the basement.

I was brought up Catholic, but in the past couple of years, I have been wondering all about it. I believe I'm more spirtual than anyting. I'm beginning to belive that organized religions are all man made. I mean, how can the pope, just one man, be infallable? There is so much more I want to know. Are there any good books or movies out there that can give me better answers?

Im not sure if age really matters with this, but let me set up a scenario.



Someone disrepected you, your woman or your mother, etc. Words are going back and forth, your're in each others faces. The one who is being disrepectful throws a punch and you 2 go at it. Fists flying, knocking into walls, furniture..blah blah. I'm sure you get the picture.



The fight ends, you come out unscratched, the other is bloody. So it's obvious you beat the crap out of this dude. But no, it doesnt end there. The other starts running his mouth about how he beat you down, acting like the big man. So of course, your in front of all your buddies and can't have this jerk (Im being nice here..haha) show you down, so you go another round..again, comming out ontop.

I know some boys/men have this HUGE ego thing going on, so Im really curious.

Yes I know this is a useless question, but my grandaughter is coming to visit for a couple of days.I'm so excited cos I haven't seen her for nearly a year as she doesn't live close to me.
I know we will have a great time, but when she has to return home I know I will be tearful.
That's why I'd like you to leave me a message to make me smile again. Thanks folks, you're all stars! x

My friends have urgently asked me to develop a web site that answers many questions about the Mormon faith. I am pleased to announce that we are in the process of acquiring the rights to the domain www.lds-temple.com. Our beloved Mormon church has not explained why some Mormons enjoy a polygamist household called by the Lord. I am also writing a children's book so titled, "Don't Call Me An Alien Because I Have Three Mommies and a Daddy." This beautiful first edition will be given out free from my web site

Do you think that Muslim countries should apply Sharia law to be better? or become better; and then apply Sharia law? The question is not that simple, because in a corrupted country, corrupted witnesses might be hired to harm others or impose some kind of penalty of them according to Sharia.. Please give me your opinion.

"Also he made a molten sea of ten cubits from brim to brim, round in compass, and five cubits the height thereof; and a line of thirty cubits did compass it round about." - 1 Kings 7:23

Now that implies value of Pi to be 3 exactly. Now if you're going to take bible literally, won't this little error mess up large calculations?

For example, in calculating circumference of earth...

The fact is, Earth's circumference is 40008 km approximately.

The diameter is 12,756 km.

NOW, If you go by Biblical value of Pi, if we take it literally...

The formula,

c = d * pi

Hence, c = 12756 * 3

The biblical answer would be = 38268.

Huge difference! Totally incorrect. The actual answer is 40008 km, with minute approximation.

So, would you still like to use bible literally?

Or maybe atleast call it an allegory to avoid the real embarrasment in Math classes.

I was supposed to be there for 30 days or pay a bunch of money that I didn't have. After a few hours of hysterical crying, they let me go.
