They keep changing things, and it seems like the mormon people are gradually being allowed (not officially) to do more things and be more free. Seems like they're trying to change to be more normal.

...head of the people, Her body, of whom She is Mother. Now as the people submit to the Mother, so also husbands should submit to their wives in everything." Ephesians 5:22-24, role reversal translation.

Christians, I presume you are familiar with the original text. If you think and believe that men and women are equal but you still think the original verses are OK, how do you feel about them with the roles reversed?

I have believed in God since i was a little girl. but i have been questioning about god. why doesnt it say in the bible about dinosaurs? how did Adam and Eve reproduce when they were the only 2 on earth? With their children? and noah when it flooded and it was jus his family on the ark and everybody else died because of the flood how did they reproduce? with their children and there is always a begining and a end, Who created God? Why in the bible does it not say nething else about the planets? It jus says " in the begining God created the heavens and the Earth? y not planets?

Can you please (for the sake of argument) catagorize yourself

A.) You are absolutely sure there is no type of god, or creator, and there never was.

B) You simply feel that such a being is unlikely, there is not enough evidence to believe it, and it would be a waste of your time to try to have "faith" in something so illogical and unnecessary to explain things. You feel science explains enough to leave your head spinning in awe, and you'd rather spend your time learning more fact than wondering "what if Theists are right".


I ask because many people seem to think you guys make a religion out of the disbelief in God, when most Atheists I've met fall into catagory B.

If you fit into neither, please explain.

You kidding me,
Halo 3 is the most famous game on the xBox right now.

Halo 3, another speculated scientology video game. It sounds similar to scientolgy, humans, animals, cells, living things, came from Star Dust, or from out of space. It could be from the sun's remains.

Halo 3, has all the details listed above. It's crazy. but the game is so good. Humans in the game came from outer space known as the fore runners. the fore runners happened to built the ARK in East Africa. Only a speculation.

What are the purpose of it? Salvation? Do they believe in GOD?

I have had this slight feeling these past few weeks that I should do children's ministry as a career. So maybe be a stay at home mommy and just work childrens ministry part time, or find work doing childrens ministry full time. i gotta pray. how do i even get started to be a leader in childrens ministry (and i dont just mean teach sunday school)? So as of now I think God may want me to do ministry. maybe thats why my shoulder appears to be getting worse, maybe its a sign from God, that He does not want me to be an emt.

Bhisham pitameh had got so much importance in the history because he took the oath that he will not marry. but it was because of the his Moh for his father .

while Dronacharya also ignored Brahmha for the sake of his dharma , still why Dronacharya could not get so much importance as Bhisham pitameh in the history

This woman is saying she's a psychic, but I've seen her mess up on TV plenty of times. She looks like every other swindler out there--long red nails, huge hair, odd clothes, and 10lbs of makeup to cover the wrinkles. When she messes up, she tries to cover it and act like it didn't happen. And she says that there's no evil spirits out there, but says there are only good spirits. The worls thrives on balance, so that couldn't possibly be true.

Any real psychic treats it as a gift--they don't ask money for helping people. If someone really cares, they wouldn't ask money to help people out. That would be like a charity asking the poor for money! And they're regular people living regular lives--not getting millions off of Montel and books that all repeat the same things.

My mother-in-law swears by her every word. What do you guys think? Real? Or an old lady just trying to make some cash?

Example, I am a "How Long" person (patience is Not one of my virtues) and it is the first question that pops into my head upon an everyday normal statement. My brother is a "Why" person, who has an analytical mind and therefore is never happy for he never gets his questions answered to his satisfaction. What are you?
Where, Why, When, What, How, How Much, How Many....? Which Question word dominates above all the rest for you?

There are a lot of arguments on here about the bible's validity but what I'd like to know is where people got this idea that the bible is holy and authoritative. Ok, it's an old book, but being old doesn't make it true. Ok, there were a lot of contributors, but still that doesn't make it true. A lot of people believe it's great and that's traditional, but still doesn't make it true. Parents pass it on to children as they do a lot of other knowledge; I think you know where I'm going with this. If my parent told me not to touch fire because it would be bad, I could just go touch it anyway and feel how bad it was. We can't time travel to see the bible's stories with our own senses. So what's with this absolute and certain belief some people seem to have? Is it just that there are some nice ideas in there that help people cope and help society function? If so why are some people so closed to debate and so certain they are right?

serious question here, not trying to start a fight. You believe in annihilition, doesn't that scare you? One day you will not exist at all. I just want honest answers because I personally couldn't deal with that, and no, that is not why I'm Christian. I don't hide behind my faith to protect my fears. Please, real answers here

Asking a question that requires thought is generally a waste of time. Asking one that requires research is asking for a headache. A few members are very good, and post fantastic answers, but most are parrots. Encouraging study, research and thought through occasionally skewed, and sometimes touchy questions gets the same garbage answers over and over. Is it really worth the effort?

because Lord Vyas muni said to Maan Satyawati that now only tapovan is left for you , and she left the path of karam yog . she did not inclined to go to forests but she did not had choice she had gone to forests . it means sometimes it happens that you are out of karam yog or you do not have right to do karmas . so how the Lord Sri Krishna's statement is true that you have right on karmas and not on results of karmas

Crimes are defined by law. Wrongs are defined by collective opinion. Sins are defined by religion as being unsavory to one deity or another. We are against crime, against wrongs, but do not believe there are any sins. Anyone else think this way?

Matthew24:29 "Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:"

"The moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven." Apparently, Jesus believed that the moon produces its own light, and that the stars are lights held in place by a firmament only a few miles above our heads.

Would've thought the son of God would known better! roflol!

my parents and everybody always feel that reading the quran and praying are the only way to heaven and i feel it is true but then again i wonder if the almighty has given a fair chance to all people. i mean does this mean that a poor person from bangladesh who can not feed themselves has the same chance as a rich king from saudi arabia to go to heaven. he should have a better chance because his life here on earth is hell and he is sad all his life but the arab king is always happy and has everything he needs so why is it that he should get to hevean and be happy there too. should allah give the poor man something for his life's hardship.say if the poor man does not pray and goes to hell is that fair because he had a sad life on earth and will have one in the hereafter. but the king will have a good life on earth even if he is bad and goes to hell. that does not equal up.
