My husband is out of town on business and in the evening he decided to go out for a motorcycle ride with his dad for an hour while in town. I said that was fine but I was sick and feeling bad but an hour was okay but could he stick close to his phone after that just in case I needed anything or just needed support from my husband. Well I called a couple of times after the hour had passed then found out they added dinner to their route. I am okay on my own and all but inconsideratness to any level is hard to tolerate when I feel sick as dog and am throwing up etc. What do you think?

live in New Rochelle right pretty much every student in ALMS is from different elementary schools hence ( I don't think that is the time to use this word ) they all have ghosts in their schools. I know I do, I went to Davis elementary and there was always a ghost in the girls bathroom. She was killed by the janitor a LONG time ago. First he poisened her with chemicals he mixed with the hand soap, then when she was half dead he stabbed her through the chest and killed her. I also forgot to mention the janitor live in the ceiling above the bathroom ( there was a tile gone where he lived ) I never knew that till grade 4 and I always went in that stalland there was carvings that said things like help me and stuff. One day I went with my friend and on the mirror it said your next and I ran the hell outta there and managed to not get detention. The boys said that there is a devil in their bathroom. Also in another school there is a devil...ish mat thing

scientist have now proved that the carbon dating is jesus' time
they have proved that the blood on the wounds including the crown of thorns and lashes on the back
coins on the eyes are coins of the pilate
now a group of respectable scientist have admitted after 50 years of test that the only way that the image could have been put on the shroud was the body to turn to light and left a negative imprint which could prove a resurection and with the imprint left similiar to the atom bomb could scientically prove how the ressurrection works
plus scientist have proved it came from jerusalem

I know that I could outdebate or out aplogise protestants on the catholic truth (and I am just a returning catholic) but was there ever a true catholic who couldnt.

i know there are catholics who leave the church to "find jesus" in more sensational enviroments that appeal to their worldly desires, ie better music, easy living, better "fellowship" etc

But really what do you think

On the one hand, I'm not sad at all to see anything that has to do with religion going away forever (even though in this case it's just being replaced by another fairy tale).

But on the other hand, those are historical artifacts. Whether or not their religion was true or false is irrelevant in this context. What matters is that they are a part of human history.

Alright might religion class has an assignment to get some different people's opinion on the following question. If you could say your age and your gender, that would be cool, but you don't have to.

A mother and a father bring their infant child to your parish for Baptism. The father has never practiced a religion. The mother mother was baptized a Catholic but eventually stopped going to Church. If you were the pastor, would you allow the baby to be baptized? If not, why? If so, would there be any requirements you would ask the couple? What would they be?

Mine does. My first name means "Conqueror", my middle name means "gift of god", and my last one means "superior to my enemies". If you put it all together, you get "The Gift of God conquers all those inferior to him". The funny thing about that is I'm a Virgo and my Moon sign is between Capricorn and Aquarius. My signs mean that I will have authority (like a conqueror), and I will be helpful,(like a gift).

I met a few Latter Day Saint Missionaries. He were very good. I like the principles they follow. They invited me to their church and I like the people there too. But, My non-LDS friends condemn them and say they worship Josepth Smith not Jesus Christ. I found nothing like that in the service I attended. The service was focused on Christ. But, my friends say this in only to fool you in the begining. Matter of fact, I find it imposible to put up a show for me by involving the entire congregation to convince me that they believe in Jesus. I serious feel they do. Maybe the Yahoo! users can post your opinions and share your views. Be open and honest. Thank You.

Whoever told Mohammad that Jesus's name was Isa (a.k.a. "Esau") must have gotten their information from a corrupted source.

It appears the source of that corruption comes from a group of Arabic "Christians" called the Nestorians. The "heresies" of the Nestorians conform closely to what would soon become (and is today) Mohammadean ideology.

They added to the story of Jesus's birth and omitted certain parts which they found "illogical". For example, the Qur'anic story of Jesus, which is curiously named after Jesus's MOTHER, claims that Jesus spoke immediately after birth, claiming to be a prophet of Allah. It changes the words said to be spoken by Gabriel to Mary by omitting a reference to the "Holy Spirit" by Gabriel. This reference directly contradicts the Mohammadean claim that GABRIEL is the Holy Spirit. It also quotes Jesus in a way which makes Jesus appear to ARGUE with previous scripture which had not yet been written.

Are these intentional mistakes, or simple errors?

RULES:

1) You must give only evidence FOR I.D. or Creationism
2) You may not attempt only to discredit parts, or the whole of evolutionary theory.
3) You may not claim that some other scientific principle runs contrary to evolutionary theory, i.e. 2nd law of thermodynamics (which it doesn't, if it did evolutionary theory would have died out years ago).
4) You must at least appear to know what you're talking about.
5) No scripture.

Here's your chance... tell us "evolutionists" how wrong we are by actually providing scientific evidence in favor of creationism or I.D. Please cite research where applicable.

I have found in some federal guidelines for religious expression in public schools that "Students may display religious messages on clothing to the same extent they may display other comparable messages"; however, in the handbook for my school it clearly states that clothing or jewelry or other paraphernalia that suggests witchcraft, cults, or satanism are prohibited. Aren't those types of religion?
If so, doesn't that mean that the school is breaking that rule by saying we can't display those certain religions on clothing or anything else we're wearing?
Could anything be done about this?
