According to the Bible, Book of Genesis,

chapter 1, verses 11-13,


It says light is created on the first day where as the source of light 'The Sun' is created on the fourth day. How is this scientifically possible?

I do not wish to quote other Bible contradictions just looking for an answer on this one.

Have you realized Atheists are in love with the flag report button? All my Christains answers are deleted due to excessive report from Atheists. How do I know this? Which Christian would ever report me for saying " I believe in God?"

So, I've gotten more than 5 Christain questions deleted, and all were questions, not suggestions... According to Yahoo " We've received 49 reports against your question"

It's pretty amazing how an individual visits Religion and Spirituality to read, disagree then report. Read, disgree then report. Read, then disagree and report.

Before you report this question for deletion, look at the top of my post ( Do you realize this?)

I am working as a director , the nearest position to the boss.

My boss is rich person , with that kind of money I will live the rest of life at 5 starred tropical beach hotel

But he invested and invested a lot of money to a foreign land and he gives himself a great headache,

Whenever I watch him I ask why this guy wants more and more ? He is arealdy in late fifty ,he thinks he can live forever?

in his house a foreign woman works , whenever she receives small monthly pay

I can see her great gratitude and real satisfaction, her salary isnt enough for my boss dinner desert.

I see a great irony, who is really happy?

a millionaire who is still discontent or a mexican woman who are content with her small salary cuz she can buy now her kid icecream?

Let's talk in reality..
I asked a question of Atheists on taking GOD out of everything and some how the answers you have given are truly unrealistic

I work for a Catholic Hospital, let me tell you the amount of people who are dying from addiction, they have no family no friends no hope and you know who pulls them out of the depths of hell and dispair..GOD....Lindsay's Father Michael Lohan and Daniel Baldwin have spoken eloquently about thier Addiction and they have money, family friends and they still could not get sober
only the Spiritual Path of a 12 Step program leads people to sobriety,
BTW: I work with Addicts I know from what I speak I have seen people to hell and back with Addictions many have died ONLY and I mean only has a !2 Step Program helped an Addict and I have never met an Addict that got sober and became a Atheist by the way..
So are you telling me people can get sober without the Spiritual Path of a 12 Step???

If heaven is a real place in the sky/clouds, how come you don't hear about jet engines sucking up millions of souls every day? And how can you explain a clear day? What about space travel? Do the astronauts have to get the sky-pixie to give them a visa to pass through heaven? Is heaven kind of like a revolving restaurant in the sky...you can only see certain parts of earth at a time? How come during all of science's space travels we've never ran into the coolest imaginary club of all time? What about FSM heaven, can you refute that?

I know that the bible clearly states that it is wrong to be homosexual. What I want to know is if it is so wrong why can't we control it? I have several friends that are of the gay preference and many of them grew up in christian homes and tried changing the way that they were. They did all they could and here they are....still gay. And they hate that about themselves. The idea didn't come from liking to be gay but rather...the natual attraction to the same sex. What about those people?

Abstinence is the only known and 100% proven method of preventing unplanned pregnancy and transmitting STD's. Besides, sex brings with it a whole lot of psychological, mental, emotional, and physical responsibilities that many people, especially teens, are not ready for. What's wrong with encouraging parents and teachers to teach abstinence to teens and young children? No one is saying take out all the other messages on safe sex but make abstinence equally taught and demonstrated in our society. Some might say that its unrealistic but I say that it's a million times better than the reality that we are now experiencing with the spread of A.I.D.S and other STD's. What are some of your thoughts?

Face to face as opposed to yahoo answers? I notice a lot of hostility and anger and ridicule(Some of which I contribute to) but do you feel it's easier to talk to an Atheist or Theist face to face or would you all just rather debate on yahoo answers?

Early this morning I was running in our suburban neighborhood - all of a sudden my insides were going to explode, and I wasn't going to make it to a bathroom. I had to discreetly squat against the side of a condo building behind some bushes. I barely managed to leave the scene of the crime without being seen by cars driving by. I feel terrible about leaving the mess under the porch of these people's house, and I would rather go back and clean it up. This being California, there won't be any rain to help clean the mess for another 5 months, and I'm sure some unfortunate person will discover it at some point. BUT, I'm afraid that if I do go back to clean I really will be discovered and will have to try to explain why I'm snooping around this building. This is really an embarrassing situation - WHAT SHOULD I DO?!?!?

In Genesis 26:4, God promises to make Isaac's descendants as numerous as the stars of heaven.

According to Christian site http://www.christiananswers.net/q-eden/star-number.html , there are some 100 billion stars in this galaxy alone, and an estimated 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000, (ten billion trillion) stars in the universe.

Assuming God was truthful (he wouldn't promise something without intending to follow up, right?), how early can this prophecy come true?

Somebody's answer was that the anti-christ will be somebody that will claim to be the messiah and everybody will worship him and that will be a sign of the end of time. Is that true, because I thought that nobody knows when the end of time (rapture) is going to happen. So what's true about the anti-christ?

Let me first say that Im Christian.I just don't get it, how some Christians really do get offended b/c somone opposes our beliefs?I know that some of the people who persecute us will say it's b/c of fear.But"God did not give us a sprirt of fear, but of power and love and self-control"So thats obviously not true.Shouldn't persecution provoke us to live life at a higher level,to better Glorify God instead of getting offended and throwing back at them ugly words?Persecutin ought to strenghten our decision to follow Christ,not weaken it. So when they make fun and persecute us,they are only strengthening our faith and giving us more strength to endure.In the end our endurance will be a vital link to other's Salvation."When people insult you b/c you follow Christ,you are blessed,b/c the Glorious Spirit,the spirit of God is with you"1Peter4:14 "Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of Heaven"Matt5:10.
