Polyester leisure suit
Lycra stretch pants
Shirts or blouses with outsized lapels

I think a lot of these have made a comeback for the kiddies

God's existence than to prove the flying spaghetti monster's existence but...

...along with God we have an irrational self-contradictory conflicting book...
and since you've probably seen spaghetti fly before...

wouldn't you require less amount of faith to believe in the flying spaghetti monster?

you wouldn't even have to go to church!

Some folks believe in replacement theology but the Bible clearly states otherwise.....
1I say then, has God cast away His people? Certainly not! For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. 2God has not cast away His people whom He foreknew. Or do you not know what the Scripture says of Elijah, how he pleads with God against Israel, saying, 3“Lord, they have killed Your prophets and torn down Your altars, and I alone am left, and they seek my life”? 4But what does the divine response say to him? “I have reserved for Myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Baal.” 5Even so then, at this present time there is a remnant according to the election of grace.
Romans 11:1-5
It seems to me to fully understand the purpose of the rapture verses the purpose of the millennium is to understand that "all Israel" HAS NOT become the Church.

What if Religion sprang from the fear that after death you're dead and nothing else? Then eventually, people tried to control others by saying if you're bad after death you go to hell! Or how about this? I've had real prophetic dreams. What if someone had a dream where god was deciding about your fate, and tried to warn everybody! What do you think?

Well, I've only found out about Asatru four weeks ago, so I'm a total newbie to this. I would like to know all the basics of Asatru and how to put it into practice in daily life. Where should I start off?
And if I were to give a gift to a certain god, where should I put it?
Very sorry about the newbieness, but please help!
Thank you ahead of time!

I'm going to a memorial service, and I don't know whether what's appropriate. I knew the deceased fairly well, but I know his father is my choir teacher, extremely well. What's appropriate dress?

Irreducible complexity is the hypothesis that organisms cannot be reduced to simpler organisms without killing them. Creationists argue that this is proof that evolution is wrong and that God is right. Ignoring the fact that the vast majority of biologists think that irreducible complexity is ridiculous, let’s just assume that irreducible complexity is right. It still does not prove the existence of God. I could just as easily say that a reducibly complex alien race created us. I highly doubt it, but being that there is no evidence for either the God theory or the alien theory, then both theories equally likely.

....seek treatments for cancer, that are the product of genetics and evolutionary biology. Genetics has established that humans are a primate species, that is about 98% similar to chimpanzees in coded DNA. Yet you would not hesitate to get a genetic screening to see if you have the genetic markers for a certain cancer. Explain your hypocrisy please.....

Christians think of eternal life as something worthwhile. I suspect others disagree. Is there a downside to immortality?

I am just wondering if some people attract spirits or are sensitive to that, what would it tell of a person who never sees or senses them? Can one do the opposite of some people and say, repel spirits or nature of the like if nothing ever happens around them? Or would it just mean that they're just not senstive or in tune to those things?

Occasionally parallels are made between Greek legends and the Holy Bible scriptures.

Do you feel that any particular Greek legend had more of an effect on Christianity as we know it today than the others?

Why does it always depend on some middleman? Some person who has a Hotline to Heaven that you don't have, or some person who has the Keys to the Kingdom? Some organization that makes a lot of tax-free dollars because they have a connection to the Divine that you, poor layperson, don't have?

Then should I bleach my hair or not? I really want to be a blonde for a bit. Anyone done it before? Please - some tips. On EXACTLY how to do it. I know nothing. All I know is I have some bleach and I probably shouldn't just pour it over my head and then jump into the shower.

Thanks you... :-D
