Society & Culture - 19 August 2007

I know I'm about to sound so cold, and I know it sounds horrible I would never really condone this, but every time I hear a story about it I'm just heart broken.

Should Retarded children be mercy killed. If you find out your child will be born retarded should doctors recommend abortion. I'm talking about really too far gone. I mean drooling in a chair eating applesauce for the rest of there life.

That is not life. that is not living. a child who will never feel love from another (Not parental love, I mean Love Love) They will never be able to make freinds at school, they will never be able to work, never be able to have sex, just have a cold empty life that drains and causes pain for everyone around them.

I know this sounds terrible, but remember i said Mercy, its mercy, no child deserves something like that.

Is it contradictory to ask for 2 things that are similar? I want something very specific, yet people have told me that I should also ask for the same thing but in a general sense.

As an example (not what i want); if I ask for say, a very specific type and kind of car AND ask for just a car but with the same qualities is this ok? To ask for both at the same time?

People say i shouldnt be specific....just be general. But then LOA says you can ask for anything your heart desires.

There are really no rules to LOA are there?

I am 16 and have never believed in God or Jesus or any of that junk. I have been going to church all my life and I just dont believe. I need to save up money for college since my parents dont have much and want to work on sundays to help do this instead of wasting my time in a silly church. Does anyone have advice that would make it easier to tell my parents that I dont believe? They are really religious.

I wanted to put this into Society and Culture as I think that would be a better heading, But I can't change the options offered, so this will have to do.

And why does Yahoo let them do it?

And why doesn't anybody at Yahoo read the question or answer that the church folks are terminating me for?

If Yahoo would bother to read it, this would not happen.

According to Matthew 4:8, Satan took Jesus to the moon (it's the only place where mountains exist from which you can see the entire earth).

Since there is no atmosphere on the moon to erase footprints, they must still be there.

How long before astronomers find sandal prints on the moon and confirm the bible is true? Won't it be great to finally have proof the stories in the bible are real?

,in case people mistakenly take it seriously,
stating
"This book contains material on creation. Creation is a scientifically disproven hypothesis, definitely not a fact, regarding the origin of living things. This material should be approached with an open mind, studied carefully, and critically considered"

what do you think?

Do you go somewhere for breakfast or brunch or dinner on Sunday? Or do you do so on Saturday or Friday? What kind of family tradition do you observe every week, or on special days of the month?

Please feel free to state your religion, nationality, or ethnicity. Thank you very much.

....where does that leave me?

I've been called proud, narcissistic, self-centered, shallow, vain, arrogant, egotistical....I could go on and on. There's an element of truth to all of the epithets, as well.

So, am I already condemned? There's not much I can change about me, quite honestly, so should I just give in to indulgence and sin?

I didn't. I stayed home and watched Richard Dawkins videos on YouTube. That's so much more enlightening.

Illogism #1: If god had such a power over matter as to be able to able to build a whole colossal universe (check the complexity please), why would he need a material jesus avatar to get his message across?
Illogism #2: TAKE THIS FROM GOD´S PERPECTIVE: If flesh is so useless to him as to be discarded at death, what´s the big deal in discarding the jesus avatar´s body if his ticket to heaven was already punched? Where´s the big sacrifice in this?
Illogism #3: We consider the importance of a son to be paramount because it is important from our human point of view, so the importance of a god´s son can only be attributed under human -not divine- parameters. God never lost his son because the important part for him was the spiritual part that never died. Was it a scam then?
illogism #4: Rooted in these reasonings, doesn´t it seem suspect that the jesus incident happened only in Mesopotamia and that the spread of the word had to be done by conquest?
Why not repeat the operation elsewhere?

I am a Texan, and proud of the heritage we have here, in my state as well as the US. My ancestors were from the UK, mostly English with some Scot and Irish in the mix. I enjoy many of the things about the UK. I study British history, read the literature and understand that you have a great heritage.

The US is a young country and has grown quickly in size, wealth and power and therefore acts and is like a spoiled child. But unfortunately we are after all Britain's spoiled child.

I have many friends here who have immigrated from the UK, and have other friends who have either come to the US or are currently here as a result of their service with the RAF or British Army. We always find a lot in common.

By the way I thought it was really cool driving my Jaguars, now I find out they are made by Ford.

Doing some research, and I didn't know that JW's were persecuted, imprisoned and killed in concentration camps from refusing to defect their religion and side with Hitler. Catholics in Italy during the 1980's had also banned JW's, attacking them and spreading leaflets about them to prevent their preaching. In Russia, they were sent off into large numbers into Siberia, where they were left to die. According to a JW, they have been persecuted, attacked throughout the world (even in the U.S.), while other religious groups have not experienced this scope.

Even today, JW's are being attacked in Georgia (in europe), for practicing their beliefs by the Greek orthodox church.

Your thoughts please.

Don't you think that his purpose was for the earth to be filled with perfect people? (Genesis 1:28) 28 Further, God blessed them and God said to them: “Be fruitful and become many and fill the earth and subdue it, and have in subjection the fish of the sea and the flying creatures of the heavens and every living creature that is moving upon the earth.”

now did he intend for them to die & go to heaven? can't you understand that everlasting life as a perfect is just as good as those who have the heavenly calling the 144,000 co rulers with Jesus (Revelation 20:6) . . .Happy and holy is anyone having part in the first resurrection; over these the second death has no authority, but they will be priests of God and of the Christ, and will rule as kings with him for the thousand years. [to shepard ressurected mankind back to perfection] see also 1 cor 15:24-28
