Wouldn't they allow the Gospel of his son Jesus to be preached in their nation?

what is it that makes some people the life of the party and others a loner? Is it something to do with the mind? Like why do some people just seem so natural at communicating with others while some people struggle just to blurt out a sentence with more than ten words in it?

in 1974,in the "room" i was allowed, I had a GE transistor radio. Sometimes,well almost always, when I couldn't sleep, i would hold this little transistor radio close by my ear and try to dream i was somewhere, maybe dreamland, or maybe just stardust. i listened to a song on 98FM KUDL in kansas city. it was called " cosmik debris" by an artist named frank zappa. I had never heard such blasphemy, having been raised as a Jehovahs Witness. and it got me to thinking. here, now , is the reason i have never shared before with you, this song, laughed at the sanctimonious. it was sacreligious. i was enamored. thank you frank, and may whatever is, is, be with you.

If you grew up during that time or if you did what would you have wanted to be? A hippie or a flag waving patriot? I was to young during that time but passed what we called the Hippie house in the small town I grew up in. And they seemed to be having a blast all the time.

Are the people who jumped to their deaths on 9/11 from the twin towers in hell for committing suicide?

FYI~ when humans encounter intense heat such as that day, they instinctively do whatever it takes to get away from the heat, once it started to burn their skin, they did the only thing they could do, and that was jump.

I can't believe you holy rollers who have the audacity to even suggest these poor victims would go to hell for "jumping" out of the Towers. Where was your so called "God" that day?? Hmmmm??? You thumpers all claim he exists, but no one has ever seen him, I would think if "Jesus Saves" that would have been the best opportunity to show himself, but he didn't. Why?? Because he does not exist. Face it!

Ok, here is a nice and specific question i need some clever muslims to help me with. It seems that, i have learnt from a muslim i've been chatting with. That Muslims and Christians, but not Jews, believe that Jesus was the Messiah and that he will come again. Is that a fact?

What i am wondering now though, is what happens when the messiah and the prophet muhammed disagree on an issue, how do muslims reconcile this, who is considered more right? how could one be more right than another.
Here is a specific example. The Qu-ran and therefore the Prophet Muhammed endorsed retributive justice, an eye for an eye. Jesus specifically taught that not even retributive justice is ok, he preached total pacifism. How could the annointed one have gotten it wrong?

Romans 9:

3For I could wish that I myself were accursed from Christ for the sake of my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh,

4who are Israelites and to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises;

5of whom are the fathers, and from whom, according to the flesh, Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen.

6It is not as though the Word of God hath taken no effect. For they are not all Israel, who are of Israel;

7neither because they are the seed of Abraham are they all children; but, "In Isaac shall thy seed be called."

8That is, they who are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God; rather, the children of the promise are counted as the seed.

Can it be said any clearer than that? And before you even give the familiar response, understand the above passage and then apply this to the proper people:

Genesis 12
1Now the LORD had said unto Abram, "Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will show thee.

2And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing.


3And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee; and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed."

When there is a verse in the Bible that says :


The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.

Ezekiel 18:20

Ok, what kind of monster could do that to a 3 year old???? I have a 3 year old daughter, and to be honest, if anyone even did anything remotely similar to this, he'd be dead. No questions, no hesitations, just kill a monster that gets turned on by babies.

According to the video portion, the child showed no emotion at all. For those who are parents, you know that if a child is going through something like that, they are kicking and screaming.

And what kind of mother doesn't even suspect something wrong at that age??? Where was her mother?? Or father??? Anyone but a "family friend". I'm a stay at home mother by choice. I don't trust daycares. The only people I trust with my two angels are my mother and my husband, because I have no doubts whatsoever that they are safe.

I don't mean to judge those parents who do, but why take such a huge risk with a "friend"???

If he was going to die for our sins, why didn't he turn himself in and do it? Did he really have a choice in the matter? Oh sure, he could have climbed down from the cross, he just didn't want to. Well, monkeys can fly out of my butt, they just don't want to.

The reason I ask is because I grew up around the Pacific Ocean. I spent time in and on it. Never was I hit with a bout of sea-sickness.

I came East and took a trip on the North Atlantic on a long distance ferry and honestly thought I was going to die.

I could not figure it out. From appearances, the Pacific is the rougher of the two. So why did the warmer, calmer Atlantic lay me low? I don't know...but I've never gone out on another long boat ride since I've been here.

I think it is, thats why I do it! But I don't hurt anyone. If I go to hell, GOOD. I don't want to spend eternity with a god as cruel, stupid, selfish, egomaniacial as that portrayed in the bible. That so-called god is evil, and I don't like being around evil beings.
