The Islamic civilization did away with sculptures because of religious beliefs. Give two examples of acceptable art forms according to Islamic tenets.

First of all I hold Ed Smart in contempt because if he had been careful and didn't employ known homeless than Elizabeth Smart would not have been a major target for pedophiles. Further, I don't think that her parents did enough to protect her and I don't think that the fact that they had "several children" and "this was an oversight" is a justifiable excuse.

My blog is going to be called, "Daddy don't let him do that to me: Could Elizabeth Smart's rape have been avoided if her parents exhibited some discretion."

So what do you think? It certainly cannot reverse what has happened but it can show other unaware parents that protecting your children against pedophiles isn't a joke but a valid concern.

The Smart case is the best example of parents turning a blind eye. Our LDS faith teaches us that we need to be proactive yet we wait till the last hour to act. Why?

How about a deal, I'll believe in the Christian God if you believe in the Flying Spaghetti Monster? Is that possible?
Why do Christians say I need to "choose" to believe in God when the most I could possibly do is lie to myself until I fool myself into thinking I really believe in God, and wouldn't an all knowing God know the difference?

I don't remember reading that in the Bible. I thinkl some unnice preacher came up with that off-the-wall supposition. My most optimistic idea would be that Jesus was a spaceman and he promised some to come back and ship them outta here.
Does that fit? In any case the Brooklyn Bridge is sold so does anyone need a gold harp?

interpret the bible themselves? Or was the Catholic church right back then? (during the Protestant reformation, when even priests were not allowed to interpret the gospel, just Bishops.)

imo this is a good argument FOR the Catholic church, even though the bible eventually became available to everyone.

In your opinion, do you think some Christians interpret the bible without taking into account several theologically sound principals (such as the original language of the Bible and Judaic Law?)

And given this, should Theology be taught in schools so that we at least avoid useless argument and time-wasting confrontations? (At least, amoung Christian sects?)

Alot of people are claiming that the Jews don't belong in Israel and that they have illegally seized that land. My question is do you think Jews are not Israeli? It has been scientifically proven that Jews share common DNA traits. French Jews and Russian Jews have both been tested and they do share more common DNA than that of the Jew and the host country they live in. So now that we know that Jews are a common race do you think the Jewish religion was brought to them from another country? They have found the Dead Sea scrolls so we know that Jews were in fact from Israel. So does this mean that all Ethnic Jews are extinct and the only Jews alive today are of a different ethnicity and jost adopted the Jewish religion? Or is it possible that the Ashkenazi Jews of Eastern Europe are in fact ethnically from the land of Israel.

simply different personalities of One Spirit?
Do you worship from different pantheons or do you believe each of the gods from the pantheons are different?

Thanks in advance for your participation :)

bar or restuarant or wherever first. this annoys me becos it means i end up dealing with the staff to get us a table or negotiating my way through a crowd with him following along behind. then if we are at dinner or something the waiter will kinda just deal with me the rest of the evening since i got the table and lead the way in. i would like him to take charge. i am a submissive girl and i am happy to stay that way. dont get me wrong i can be assertive but i would prefer not to. i think the man should go first and sort things out.

I heard somewhere the best way mindless, arrogant people can change their attitude is to experience some life-changing event whether it's a serious illness or they lose someone close. Is there any other, not so extreme, way of dealing with a thick-headed, arrogant person?

( It wasn't Einstein, but someone said: 'madness is next to genius as arrogance is next to stupidity'

I said that to a fox hunter once, he didn't like it.)
