Do you go around justifying the drowning of infants often?

(o.O)

Do people look at you weird when you justify the drowning of infants?

(O.o)

Do you find it difficult to convince people to worship a god who drowned infants?

(o.O)

Is this why you believe in baptism for infants?

(O.O)

The Bible instructs them to be prejudicial. They cannot deny their god's own word otherwise they are not real Christians, even if they don't like it. Perhaps the vile hatred taught via the Bible is why genuinely good people turn away from Christianity.

p.s. don't bother pointing out the fallibility of other religions.

I am a professional educated black man. women always tell me i'm good looking and many black , white and hispanic women seem to like me. i like asian women, they are so sexy but they won't talk to me. some even all but run away when i just say hi. thai women are an exception as they are often friendly. i just don't understand why korean and chinese women are so rude to me when i see them with white guys all the time. any info and tips to give would be appreciated.

(If you can't be bothered, I'll paste just the introduction)

--------

SCIENCE is constantly unraveling new secrets about the universe and the life that thrives on our planet. Nonetheless, scientists and laymen alike still face such fundamental questions as these: How did the universe come to be? What existed before that? Why does the universe appear to be expressly designed to support life? How did life arise here on earth?



Science still cannot really answer such questions. Some people doubt that it ever will. Many, then, have felt compelled to rethink their views and beliefs. Let us consider three of the mysteries that are leading some scientists to wonder about the existence of a Creator.

You don't have to read much, you'll get the jist of it quickly.

Are you saying that if you had to, you could make yourself attracted to the same sex? I mean if it's a choice, surely you could switch if you needed to? If your answer is yes then you are bi-sexual, if your answer is no then you agree that it isn't a choice.

would you still think twice about taking it? Do we automatically assume "nothing is for free" or are there cases where something can be free.....so enjoy?

Do you think they're doing a good job fighting for equal rights and against racial injustice or do you think they're just doing everything they can to keep their names in the public spotlight?

Str8 people think all gays should change their behaviors and orientation to the accepted societal norm. But what if the shoe was on the other foot?

Just suppose gay was the "normal and acceptable" standard, and all str8's were discriminated against and criticized...

If str8's think being gay is a choice...

Do they also think - Str8 people could conform to gay desires and behaviors - as easily as they demand that gay people conform to str8 desires and behaviors?

It makes a hypocrit out of Christianity when Bush claims to be acting on God's behalf or when Christians support the war. Don't quote the OT as that is pre Christian.

At the sermon on the mount:
You have heard that it was said, 'Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.'But I tell you, Do not resist an evil person. If someone strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also. And if someone wants to sue you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak as well. If someone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles. (Mat.5:33-41).

And behold, one of those who were with Jesus stretched out his hand and drew his sword, and struck the slave of the high priest, and cut off his ear. Then Jesus said to him, "Put your sword back into its place; for all who take the sword will perish by the sword. Do you think that I cannot appeal to my Father, and he will at once send me more than twelve legions of angels? ... And he touched his ear and healed him.(Mat.26:50-54, Lk.22:51)

"... to the abuser"

(o.O)

Has Yahoo never heard "innocent till proven guilty"?

Does Yahoo believe -every- complaint is a legitimate one, and that everyone who receives a complaint -must- be an "abuser"?

Not an "alleged abuser".

Not "accused".

No, the fact you've pressed the Report Abuse button -proves- (to Yahoo's limited awareness of justice and fair play) that the individual in question -is- an "abuser".

(o.O)

And they say Fascism is dead (O.O)

What say you?

The girl I am engaged to tells me that she smokes sometimes.
This contradicts culture in my house. Honestly, I have not seen girls in India smoking on the roads nor females around me does that. But at the same time, I am a reserved person as far as females are concerned so don't know their habits much.
I asked the same question to her. She says smoking is quite amongst Indian girls even though all of them does it openly.
Now I ask you the same, is this really the case ?
