Society & Culture - 8 July 2007

I was wondering what the LITERAL translation of the word "Fuhrer", with the 2 dots over the "u", is.

I know it's what Hitler was called by Nazi party members.

Did the Nazis coin the phrase, or was it a word in circulation prior to Hitler's rise to power? Is it still in use today?

Meaning live like the wild animals do. Surviving like trying to stay alive and hunt for food.

Now, I'm not going to judge Mormons because my church says that you can't get divorced.

It's dirty but Mormons had the right idea. Instead of getting a divorce just marry your mistress.

Too bad old Henry VIII wasn't a member of the Church of Jesus Christ and Latter Day Saints he could have a wife in every room at Windsor castle. LOL:)

But all joking aside Brigham Young didn't hide his sins in the closet. He flaunted his sinful lifestyle in public. Ironically he had a house built that he called, "Lions House" where he housed all of his 51 wives (just like the house on "Big Love", the HBO special about Mormon polygamy).

Why do you thank god for all the good things but fail to blame him for all the bad. I mean if someone ran out into the road and got hit by a car and survived, everyone would be thanking God and thinking he was great, but if the person died no christian would blame him at all, thinking it was a tragic accident that no one could help.

How can you thank someone for all the good and then not blame him for the bad?

If he is controlling all the good stuff in this world, then he must be controlling the bad too?

what will Jesus do during his 1000 year kingdom? Jehovah ´s witness preach that Jesus after Armageddon and destruction of wrongdoers and Satan put in "Jail" will rule the earth (Revelation 5:10) will resurrect people (Acts 24:15 and John 5:28-29) will provide food and eliminate famines (Psalm 72:16) will restore the health of humans (Isaiah35:5-6, 33:24) will eliminate the death and the cause of the death and suffering (Revelation 21:4) in resumen will transform the earth in a great place to live a "new earth" the original purpose of God with Adam and Eve (Genesis 1:28) if unless they wouldn´t sinned this is the message we preach, you told that is false, why? can you with the bible prove , that is false?

after 1000 years mankind will have a second test, Satan release and after that destroyed and Jesus give the kingdom to his father (Jehovah) (1 Corithians 15:28)

what of this is false? and then if is false what is going to be the future?

Some atheists think every religion and person try to force them into believing in God. Sure, some people do that, but aren't you contradicting yourself by trying to tell religious people that they shouldn't believe?

If you can't. Then this mean your not all knowing. If there is 1% of a chance there is a God would you be open to see it?

Let's suppose you're changing out your old lamps to compact florescent and as you're unscrewing a bulb a genie appears and grants you three wishes. The genie also tells you that any attempt at trickery will result in the wishes being nulled and voided. What would you wish for.

In science, an opinion becomes a hypothesis
While studying it, a good hypothesis becomes a theory.
A theory being studied and monitored and investigated closely, becomes a Law.
A Law can still be disproved, but for the most part has been studied carefully to makes sense. Scientists have faith in their Law. Now, many people see religion as a "Law". It has been tested and twisted, and people have been trying to discard it for centuries, but yet it still remains. If Christianity was just an opinion, created from faith, it has proven itself worthy many times. Faith in Christianity can never be completely disproved. It it was possible, it would have been done by now. Faith in essence, was God's opinion, and his opinion, skips the theory stage and goes straight to Law.

Does this make sense? I used this an answer to a question about Faith a few minutes ago.

If you do what do you think you were? A painter, scientist, a beggar, etc. etc. A lady I met briefly told me that I was once a man (I'm a girl btw) living in India in the year 1650 and I was some sort of herbalist she also told me I had once been a Greek painter. Now I don't know if I should believe her, she stopped me as I was walking on the Venice Beach boardwalk.

That's really sad that a religion that claims to worship a creator has to hide from his creation when worshipping him.

Do walls and stained glass take the place of fog, forest and starlight?

Do narrow pews and uncomfortable seats bring you closer to the divine than the gurgling of a brook, the gentle yielding nature of the moss and the grandeur of boulders that have sat unmoved for thousands of years?

Are you so afraid of lightning you huddle under robes in hopes of escaping it?

Is Life so scary you pray for death to alleviate you of this 'burden'?

Like mice scurrying for burrows, you race for the safety of four walls and a roof rather than embrace the planet that gave you birth?

Pfaw!

So in a million+ years (I doubt we'll get there anyway) what if people don't believe what is happening today (i.e. events, tragedies, etc) even though we have documented "proof"?

What do you think is going to happen when you die?

Do you think life is some random coincidence, and has no meaning?

Are you open to the possibility that there is a God who loves as his son and wants the best for you, but you are afraid to believe in him or just "Don't see enough evidence"?

Sorry, you don't have to answer all 3 of those questions, but i am curious to see your response on any of them or all of them.

Thats one of the 10 commandents, & God does nothing everytime I or anyone disobeys it.
