I AM the Lord thy God, thou shalt have no other gods before me. (That would include ungodly spirits, idols, self, etc...)

Thou shalt not make images & bow down before them, worshipping them. For my Name is Mighty Jealous regarding idolatry. Visiting the iniquities onto the 3rd & 4th generations of those who hate me. Giving blessings unto the 1000s generations to those who love me.

Thou shall not use my Name in vain, for I won't hold them guiltless. (Guilty of hating God).

Im a Non-Bashing Christian and i noticed on Yahoo Answers that some Christians, Atheists, Muslims, Mormons etc don't bash at all but are here to have a mature conversation. When a question is asked by someone who doesn't bash, that person gets alot of negative feed back, this is caused by the ones who bash and includes everyone of any belief.

There are way too many assumptions because of the mistake of these bashing people:

Ex. All Christian force their belief
All Athiests are immature
All Muslims believe in Killing for their belief

These are all assumptions placed on everyone and it needs to stop. I don't believe that all Atheists are mean and immature, I know their are some really cool ones who share why they don't believe in God in a mature way. They respect our belief

It only took a few people from each belief for assumptions to rise and be put on everyone.

Do you agree?

I was watcing an episode of Real Sports on HBO and they were showing how stadiums full of fans would chant racist things to black players. and also anytime a black player would touch the ball they would start hooting like monkeys, implying black people are like monkeys?

"Any woman who prays with her head unveiled dishonors her head. It is the same as if her head were shaven, for if a woman will not veil herself then she should cut off her hair. But if it is disgraceful for a woman to be shorn or shaven , let her wear a veil. (1 Corenthians 11 :5).

Whosoever looketh upon a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already. If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.
(MATT 5:28-29).

TIT002:005 - To be discreet, chaste, keepers at HOME, good, OBEDIENT to their HUSBANDS...

1PE 3:001 - Likewise, ye wives, be in SUBJECTION to your own HUSBANDS. -------

Women should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in SUBMISSION, as the Law says. -- 1 Corinthians 14:34


Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. But I suffer not a woman to teach [didaskein], nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. For Adam was first formed, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression." (1 Timothy 2:11-12)

Ecclesiastes 7:26 KJV: And I find more bitter than death the woman, whose heart is snares and nets, and her hands as bands: whoso pleaseth God shall escape from her; but the sinner shall be taken by her but she will catch whoever continues to sin. (GOD'S WORD®)

"I permit no woman to teach or have authority over men". --1 Timothy 2:11-14


Genesis 3:16 ----Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy pain and thy conception; in pain thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.

Not to all of them.
but you'll know if I'm talking about you.

If you don't believe in any god,
why do you spend so much time here talking about him/her?
why does it mean anything to you to accomplish nothing by doing this?

If you have no after life..
why are you wasting your current life doing this?

You would think that with all the things going on in this world...
a mythical creature would be the least of your concerns.

I just wonder.

because I know i wouldn't waste my time talking about something that doesn't apply to my life.

It would be pathetic.

Is it ok for gay couples to kiss in public?
Is it not ok?
Is it not ok but ok for straight couples?
Is it not ok for neither gay nor straight couples?

I thought that I could always count on you,
I thought that nothing could come between us two.
We said as long as we would stick together,
We'd be alright,
We'd be ok.
But I was stupid
And you broke me down
I'll never be the same again.

So thank you for showing me,
That best friends can not be trusted,
And thank you for lying to me,
Your friendship the good times we had you can have them back

this is just a part of the song from simple plan, and admit it or not, it's true. it gets me to the question: who will ever be the bestfriend who'll never leave us in good and bad times?

Ancient Egypt, Ancient Egypt and not Kemet? I ask this because, when speaking when speaking of Constantinople, we don't say Ancient Turkey or Mesopotamia, Ancient Iraq. I just was wondering why when referencing Ancient Egypt, we don't use the then used term, Kmt(Kemet)?

2007-07-27 01:45:09 · 15 answers · asked by Anonymous in Other - Society & Culture

I am referring to groups that take hostages and slaughter them by beheading, or mutilation. Like the wonderful aid worker (a woman that was married to an Iraqi man) They raped her and dismembered body. A woman that dedicated her life to helping the needy of Iraq. There actions come from hell not heaven.

Ok ,

Now i don't want any sceptics or anyone who will just post "its just a sequence blah blah" or "its only cause subconciously your looking for it". Why? because i've already had these thoughts cross my mind , No i don't see 111,222,444,555,777,888,999 NONE OF THEM i would make sure to remember this to make sure i'm not paranoid but i am seeing 666 alot and at first i didn't think anything of it but i see it so very often usually daily.
I wish it was a different sequence of numbers but often i find myself catching on the clock 3:33 which REALLY creeps me out cause this is supposedly the witching hour or the hour of satan or something across those lines.
I guess what i'm trying to say is what does this mean if i'm seeing these pair of numbers so much , NO this is paranoia I made very sure i'm not just "paranoid", I'm really creeped out by this any info from non-sceptics would be appreaciated.

To me, I consider it my most lucky number and even associate it with magic... But my mom, who reads tarot says it represents chaos. I can somewhat agree with that, given the chaotic nature of my life, at times... But I was born on May 25th, 1981 (and I once noticed that 19 + 81 = 100, also divisible by 5).

I also left my home in Pennsylvania to drive out to California on May 5th, 2005 (5/5/5) and my mileage gauge aligned to 55,555 on that day, right at the moment the sun broke through the clouds and I experienced a very peaceful sensation, which happened before I noticed the alignment and prompted me to check my mileage.

On May 5th of this year, a stranger approached me at exactly 5:55 PM to re-affirm many things to me that I had already believed in, but needed affirmation with...

So what else can you tell me about the number 5? I'm interested in knowing!

Thanks!!!!!

This raises so many questions!! Where to start?

1.) If Jesus died on the cross to save us from our sins, why is God "testing" us with false evidence? Is this some sort of supernatural game of "good cop, bad cop"?

2.) If God succeeds in deceiving us with his "planted" evidence, why are we the ones at fault? Are we to outwit God?

3.) If the fossils are planted, wouldn't it be Satan -- NOT God -- who would do that? Is it Satan or God who is The Great Deceiver? Are they one in the same?

4.) Because the world is only 6000 years old, is the lack of human remains and artifacts, among the dinosaur fossils, evidence that God planted the fossils and that dinosaurs never existed?

5.) Wouldn't it be easier to test us by having Genesis describe, in detail, man living among dinosaurs -- then NOT planting dinosaur fossils?

I heard that the New Creation Museum (NCM) also claims God planted fossil evidence . . . but they display man living with dinosaurs?!? Did they exist or not, NCM?

Jeesh!

Example: Not Trying to Offend any Atheists :D

MYSPACE has a room titled "Christians", There are other rooms to go to like Hindu, Catholic, Philosophy, Waiting Room, Judism etc. and over 50 other Places to chat outside of Religion and Philosophy but they are always in Christian Room and get mad when we talk about God. Why is this? Im just curious because it doesn't make sence.

Please, no bashing answers from anyone including Christian. I just want honest, respectful answers. Thank you, God bless

2007-07-27 01:34:29 · 14 answers · asked by Anonymous in Religion & Spirituality

As a person struggling with beliefs and ideas in a society that is full of black and white type thinking, I have this question and I am very curious as to the answers.

The Bible, Quran, Torah, etc. were written by men, correct? They did not fall, fully formed and written, from the Heavens, correct? They are certain men's personal interpretation of possible divine intervention, ideas, and rules, correct?

If you agree, why do you think people take them so literally? So literally that it brings them to terrorize, murder, or even just allow themselves to close their mind to all other spiritual ideas and philosophies?

If you disagree, why do books written by men influence you so greatly? Do you believe these books are truly the divine word, straight from Heaven, with no tampering or personal bias from the men who wrote them? If so, what is your basis of belief?

Thanks in advance for all thoughtful answers :)

My girlfriend's mother mentioned there was an "old wive's tale" explaining why there's an owl in every(?) Disney movie... but would never elaborate on *what* that tale was. Does anyone know? I cannot find anything, and lately I've been burning with curiosity... and she past away last winter, so I can't ask her any more.
