For example. You will burn forever in a hell fire.

Sheol and Hades mean the grave.
Hell is only the grave.

Job prayed to go there remember?

Jesus went to hell for three days remember?

(Sorry, I have no idea what you guys call it --- I don't mean that in a mocking way --- I just mean the highest heaven in your theology).

I realize that you guys don't believe in hell, which I confess I think is odd considering how much the Bible talks about it, but since you don't, assume I know that you won't say that anyone went to hell, please. :)

Anyway, did everyone go to the lower heaven levels --- is it only now that y'all have the Mormon church that people get to go to their own planets?

Thanks!

I was just wondering, when we say the Nicene Creed in church...which churches exactly are included when we say "we believe in one holy Catholic and Apostolic church?" Thanks in advance :)

They just tell me I don't know what I'm talking about, but they never clarify it. They never explain which parts are wrong and which are right.

Do you think God has a father?
Do you think his father is stronger than he?
Do you think gods can have more than one child?
Do you think gods have free will?
Do you think you can become a god?
Do you think that if a god is stronger than his nephew and turns evil, that he could influence his nephew to do evil?

If you don't, then tell me which of these are wrong and in what way? What is the actual belief that I am slightly off on?

...and also when you are addressing them in a letter? Please don't ask why I don't know this, but I don't and very embarrassed by that. Is it "Shri", should you find out their name and use it as well? Does it change depending on if they are a priest of Shiva, Mataji, or Vishnu? Thank ou for answering this.

This is not my opinion, I don't care either way. However, Muhammed El Fayed is getting on my nerves seeing everything in a way that suits him.

Dodi and Di had just been in a hotel room for a long time together. I once spent a long time in a hotel room with a guy who later bought me a beautiful ring as his way of saying thank you for great sex.

So there could be another reason for the ring. When replying please remember that all I am doing is saying there are many possible reasons for the ring. Even Di's best friends are saying that "No way was it an engagement ring, that is not where Di was going." I don't know what the ring was for, but I don't think it was for engagement. What do you think it was for?

They say thinks like "watch what you say" about the Catholic church. But if what I say falls in line with the word of God, how can they call me a heritic? Anyone who believes in the word of God, can not also believe in the word of the catholics doctrine, since the two say different things.

Is anyone scared when this man-made religion says things like "If you do not join our Church, you will go to hell?".

I wish they were that direct, but instead they dance around with their different doctrines.

I am not scared of the men in the Catholic Religion, I only fear God.

God literally wrote the 10 commandments not once but twice. Where are those by the way? Anyway, so then he decided the bible should not be written by him, just inspired by him, right? Makes it pretty tough to believe when we know how prone man is to creating lies and manipulating everything to get his own way. Just take a look at the Christian faith itself. How many variants are there now? Each one decided that following some of the rules didn't work for them so they split off to become a different branch of the same faith. Isn't it amazing that the proof of Gods existence is not available to man? He really did decide to take the hands off approach didn't he? When he checks out there is not getting through, huh? No voice mail, no email, no forwarding address. Man that deity is a tough one to track down.

How did you first make contact with the LDS church?
What was your religion/belief prior to joining this church?
Do you feel that you have a better understanding of the savior, and a better relationship with the savior after joining?
Have you read the entire book of mormom and if so, how does it compare with the bible? Does it contrast, or compliment?
Do you think that your life is happier after joining?
Are you persecuted for what you belief? If so, by whom?
What is the church like where you live--is there a great membership, or a sparse one?
What is the major difference between LDS church and your prior religion?
Have you ever considered leaving the church?

Non-LDS, you can answer, too. Please don't be nasty, though. I hate that.

ANd please don't post a whole bunch of links that I am not going to open

I read through these posts each day, I am amazed and shocked to see that most of the younger people asking questions can not even spell correctly. I don't blame them, I blame the schools for pushing them through without teaching them correctly,and their parents for not putting their foot down and getting the kids the extra help to learn the right way. Why are these kids having to ask questions about sex, wondering how they got pregnant,relationships and the real world here instead of getting the proper answers at home?And then to see how many use this area to post racist or pornographic innuendos is appalling. What happened to common sense or respect for others? Why does Yahoo block people who ask real questions or give real answers, but seem to overlook and allow this kind of trash to get posted?

I am researching the topic of Sexual Deviance and have all the topics covered except one:

Specifically, I need an example of an item dealing with Sexual Deviance which was once legal, but is now illegal or at least considered EXTREMELY taboo in the U.S. for whatever reason.

This can be an item that was sold, it can be a service which was rendered (thinking more along the lines of in the medical profession), or anything else of the like. I am trying to stay away from pedofilia and prostitution which I have already covered.

I have searched the internet and havent found anything that I like, but I figured perhaps someone has seen something at an antique show, or knows of something of the sort, or even has such an item.

I appreciate the help!

The main argument given up for the cluster of contradictions (the old testament), is that once JC walked onto the scene, that the old testament was negated. If this is the case, doesn't that wipe out half of the Christian beliefs?

I know that anything in the gene pool can come out but I'm just wondering everyone's opinions on what my baby will look like. I have light brown/dirty blonde hair naturally, blue eyes, and very very fair skin. I am a quarter italian but there is no evidence of that in my pale skin! My husband is half puerto rican/half black, but his father who is black almost looks mixed but both parents are black just light skinned. My husband has hazel eyes, light caramel complexion, and black hair. What do you THINK my baby will look like? I am hoping it gets atleast a little bit of a tan? haha i'd like to know everyone's opinions.
