This is asked because of an answer given by Utuk to an earlier question. It was a question regarding verses in the Bible about reading the Bible.

They will find only food and drinks. It's not like there is something too personal in there! I don't mind if friends come and open my refrigerator and serve themselves. What's the big deal?!

I just paid 2.29 for a freaking puff of air pastry(a shell of dough full of air, I thought it was something else). Yesterday it was 1.05 for a (good) donut which they seem to no longer carry. Is the world coming to an end soon and the pastry dealers the only ones that have the secret to escape?

I know that if the groundhog sees its shadow, that means six more weeks of winter. If it doesn't, that means early spring. However, how early is this "early spring"? 1 week? 2 weeks?

Do you remember before you were alive? No? Well that's also what it's like after you die. If you're religious - Im sorry to ruin the myth.

Ah well, at least all of the fanatical religious types who rely on a crutch for their existence can now start doing something productive with their lives, instead of doing crazy things in the name of a book that was written in the dark ages, by people further down the evolutionary ladder.

I also saw some cave drawings once which implied that we are supposed to worship the sun but I'm reserving judgement about that too.

In short, religion used to fill a gap in our understanding of the world and universe around us. Those gaps are now being filled by hard scientific facts. Maybe we should all worship scientists instead?

I am writing this do to the response to yesterdays post and the overwhelming people who responded saying that once someone says the prayer there yours forever. A bunch of people said that yesterday and I am here to challenge them and show me where in the Bible it says say a prayer and you are forgiven. The problem is whoever thinks that heard it from some stupid evangelist or someone who had no clue what they were talking about. In acts 2 Peter did not say "you will be saved by faith only," or "pray this prayer and you will be saved. So many today offer a plan of salvation that is incomplete and insufficient. They tell people to believe in christ but what they dont tell people is what Peter told them "repent and be baptized." Now what does it mean to repent. Repent means to change or turn ones life around. Those who come to god decide to leave behind sin and that is repentance. This doesnt mean all christians are perfect, but it means they are continually doing gods work

Jeremiah 10 1-4

This is what the LORD says: "Do not learn the ways of the nations or be terrified by signs in the sky, though the nations are terrified by them. 3 For the customs of the peoples are worthless; they cut a tree out of the forest, and a craftsman shapes it with his chisel. 4 They adorn it with silver and gold; they fasten it with hammer and nails so it will not totter.

We should BURN THESE TREES just like we burn THE SATANIC ATHEISTIC SPELLBOOKS of HARRY POTTER!

I believe you are judged by God. If you aren't Christian, I believe He asks if you accept His religion, if you deny him, you go to hell. I believe if you apologize for what you did on earth, He will accept you into heaven. Heaven will be a glorious place where you will be eternal and live a happy, loving forever.

According to the man made fictional book which as supposedly writen by God, (LMAO) fornication is an abomination.

Do Pagans have such fears? I'll bet you are capable of independent thought.

What do the women think of this?

"Many men think that housework is beneath them, and some of them think that it will undermine their status and position if they help their wives with this work.

The Messenger of Allah (SAW), however, used to “sew his own clothes, mend his own shoes and do whatever other work men do in their homes.” (Reported by Imaam Ahmad in al-Musnad, 6/121; Saheeh al-Jaami’, 4927).

This was said by his wife ‘Aa’ishah (RA), when she was asked about what the Messenger of Allah (SAW) used to do in his house; her response described what she herself had seen. According to another report, she said:

“He was like any other human being: he would clean his clothes, milk his ewe and serve himself.” (Reported by Imaam Ahmad in al-Musnad, 6/256; al-Silsilat al-Saheehah, 671)

She (RA) was also asked about what the Messenger of Allah (SAW) used to do in his house, and she said,
