Cont- and Orthodox countries that forbid contraceptive devices?
And the highest birth rates are countries like Norway and Sweden which are very liberal countries!

Are economic considerations more powerful than religious consideration?

I've got an excerpt here from Revelations (trust me, I'm not preaching) and I was wondering if any of you have your own way of imagining the creature in this excerpt :)

"7 The appearance of the locusts was like that of horses ready for battle. On their heads they wore what looked like crowns of gold; their faces were like human faces, 8 and they had hair like women's hair. Their teeth were like lions' teeth, 9
and they had chests like iron breastplates. The sound of their wings was like the sound of many horse-drawn chariots racing into battle. 10 They had tails like scorpions, with stingers; with their tails they had power to harm people for five months. 11
They had as their king the angel of the abyss, whose name in Hebrew is Abaddon 6 and in Greek Apollyon."

I just asked this question out of fun cuz I like it when people use their imagination.

P.S.

I'll give my own portrayal later (running out of characters :p)

Have Fun!!

Trinities of gods were taught in non-Christian religions since ancient times. In Mesopotamia one such "trinity" was Anu (the god of the sky), Entil (the god of the earth) and Ea (the god of the waters). Another trinity, in ancient Babylon, was made up of three gods Nimrod, Semiramas and Tammuz. Grouping of gods in triads was also common in Egypt, Greece and Rome in the centuries before and after Christ. So where did the Doctrine of the Trinity come from?

We have seen that the Bible teaches there is only on God and Jesus Christ is His Son. Is it possible that Jesus and God are both made of the same substance, or are both co-equal and co-eternal?

I Don't. I was listening to this talk radio show called coast to coast and they said they had two psychics on the air and they were taking calls. So this guy calls in and says "Hello my name is Mitch" Then one of the psychics jumped in and said " O I was doing some pre-psychic reading before the show, and I just KNEW that someone named Mitch was going to call."

I was upset that anyone could even listen to this crap and believe they were actually talking to psychics. Anybody could have called and they would have had said the same thing but with thier name instead of Mitch's.

If they really did pre-psychic reading then why didnt they just say that someone was going to call named Mitch?

Then I began to think. It would be really sad if the two sisters who were the psychics actually believed they were. I mean come on.

we just make fake excuses to cover up our failness, we take the easy way out, instead of teaching teenagers that sex before married is wrong and could get diseases we came up with something like" condems,or brith contorl" its saying ok,you can do it now we got your backs.
instead of fixing gay people mantally we came up with something like "was born gay" its an excuse for them
and the list goes on n on

My Mom just got diagnosed with breast cancer. My Grandmother (whom I was very close with) died a few weeks ago, due to a heart attack. My Dad is stressed out about my Mom, and his job.
I am a Christian myself, but, I can't help but ask myself..
If God really did love me, why is he putting me through such grief right now? I know that has human beings, we all must go through tough, hard times, but..this really just doesn't seem fair.
Please help.

This morning, my mother gave me the "why are you not searching for someone to marry" conversation.

In the afternoon I bumped into a guy from an old job who basically told me that no one liked me at work and they always talked bad about me when I wasn't there.

The same night I went to a party and a guy I was having a conversation with asked me "So why can't you get a man?" left the party crying.

I can't believe all this has happend to me in one day. I feel like garbage. I am a really kind person, I volunteer, I take care of an elderly parent, I am trying to get into law school. I don't deserve all this.

I was wondering how many gods are being worshipped by humanity in our present age.

This would obviously omit Zeus as I don't believe the Greeks worship him any more but it would include the bible god who is worshipped by christians.

How many other gods are currently worshipped?

My wife says yes. I say no. You serve yourself except for the wait staff getting your drink, some places not even that... I saw a sign at a local cafeteria "hireing wait staff, $2.25 per hour plus tips. They already charge $1.50 for a glass of tea then pay an extra dollar so so they can bring it you? It sounds like me & thier staff are getting ripped off ! I left a tip this time but to told my wife I was going to Yahoo answers for your opinion.

How do you know which declension belongs to a word in Latin? Also on noun cases, I want to know a very very detailed (with some examples) definition on each of the five main noun cases. (nominative, genitive, dative, accusative, ablative) Thank you!
