When I was a little girl my Grandfather used to tell me this and it used to scare me the way he said it!!" The night was dark and dreary the billy goat was blind he ran into a barbed wire fence and scratched his never you mind!" Now that I'm older.....a lot older I have fond memories of him but this line always stuck with me!! He was from Glasgow Scotland and I live in Canada born and bred here!!Do you happen to know any other sayings? I loved him very much and can still here him laughing after he said this to me!! I get it now but at the time it was like a ghost story to me!!

If people assume that atheism is a religion, that would make theism a religion as well. If belief in God is the religion and not following the teachings of God, then all religions that believe in a deity are interchangeable. This would mean that Christianity, Muslim, Judaism, etc. are all the same thing because they believe in a God.

If some one says that they believe in God does that automatically mean that they are a Christian or can they be another religion, or possibly not have a religion at all?

I call myself Pro-Life. I detest the idea of abortion for many reasons. I find it totally repugnant.

However, there would probably be some extreme circumstances where I would approve of an abortion - such as when the pregnency would threaten the life of the mother. Or, if the fetus would be so totally damaged that it would have little or no chance at life at all.

I am against abortion as a form of birth control.

I don''t think that a pregnency should be terminated just because an unborn child is found to have some problem or defect that can be dealt with medically.

In an ideal world there would be no need for abortions, because all children and all mothers would be well taken care of. Of course, this is not the case and may never be. But I am still against abortion in the vast, vast majority of cases. Only in rare circumstances would I be okay with it.

Having heard that, would you still call me Pro-Life. Or do I have to be against ALL abortions no matter what??

I'm in the middle of writing a book and would like to say, "Leave me alone Mr. Horny" in Spanish. The online translator I've used says the Spanish word for horny is "corneo", but my Cuban friend says it isn't. Someone please help me! The character that's saying this is Puerto Rican. I know there are different dialects as far as Spanish is concerned so if any of the words differ in Puerto Rico please let me know.

All you hate mongering pigs who are going to use sarcasm or going to insult me, get away, you're not going to be acknowledge d nor will I reply to you to suite your attention needs.

Anyways, Muslims, I had left Islam, not because I didn't believe, but because I was too into porn and masturbation and never prayed and what not. I feel horrible whenever I do this. I am trying to change my life online and off line a bit around in order to make sure it doesn't happen again. Although, I still have problems with masturbation and porn, I'd would to know if there is a brother who would like to add me on yahoo messenger in order to solve my problem, if so, e-mail me to

offair_fatality22@yahoo.com

Also, I have deleted myspace, and soon enough will delete Yahoo Answers.

Thanks for all your time, and please help me out to become a new Muslim and try to live life great. I am 16 and I'm a Muslim who really needs some help. Thanks so much, and peace be upon the Muslims. Ameen.

It doesn't seem like they do. Especially since there are divorced "Christians" that have sex outside of marriage.

supposedly god created all people. but it's also against his will to be gay. since being gay is not a choice that people make, but the way they are born, why did "god" create gay people?

I am 30, he is 47. We are really attracted to each other but he wants me to do most of the calling, and when I don't call after a few days, he wonder's why. I don't want to chase a man around. Isn't it supposed to work the opposite way? He is an excellent kisser (very rare these days!) but I don't know how much longer I can do things this way.

The essence of IS is about using rational scientific methods to prove the irrational, it's about using reason to prove unreason, it's about intelligent people learning to be stupid when they could be... intelligent.

In other words, do they acquit the existence of God based on a lack of personally revealed evidence or reject God based on evidence?

There is nothing that can stop you from dying.

This question was from a 16 year old in my community newspaper. I thought I'd throw it out there.
