I'm confused. All this nonsense over guys wearing girls underwear. Well why can't we. I mean it doesn't make us "gay" or "trans". Girls wear our boxers and white tidies.

You definitely should discipline your kids. You should discipline criminals. But the manner in which you do it should be in proportion to the crime. That would be just.

Hell is unjust punishment because it is too severe.

How can one distinguish the difference between a person that is genuinely confident in him/herself, and one that is cocky or arrogant? The ones that are cocky or arrogant, do they usually get theirs, or reap what they sow?

Some people think that the California wildfires are further proof that the End Times™ are upon us; I'm just curious as to why God wouldn't let Dubya win the war first, when he's the one who told him to start it....

Did the tree that Jesus cursed wither immediately or overnight? (Matthew 21:19 and Mark 11:14,20)

*Immediately* (Matthew 21:19) - "Seeing a lone fig tree by the road, He came to it and found nothing on it except leaves only; and He said to it, "No longer shall there ever be any fruit from you." And at once the fig tree withered.

*Overnight* (Mark 11:14,20) - "He said to it, "May no one ever eat fruit from you again!" And His disciples were listening. . .20As they were passing by in the morning, they saw the fig tree withered from the roots up."

Is this a clear example of man imbuing magic into an ordinary man? Matthew and Mark both claimed to be there and see the same event. Who is lying?

Again, I ask: What's going on here?

can't you put some value on human life? is the doctor working on the cancer cures life worth more than the meth head pimp in the ghetto? if you believe it is, than technically, you can put assign a value to each individual human life, right? if not, explain how the crack head pimp's life is equally important. if you could only save one from a burning building, do you save the doctor or flip a coin?

What in blue hell is he doing shaking hands with a hypocrite, Israel's Prime Minister Ehud!

If I remember correctly, Israel is the only country in the Middle East that refuses to sign the nuclear non-proliferation treaty and bars international inspections from its sites.

That Israel is the only country in the Middle East that has nuclear weapons.

That non-Jewish Israelis cannot buy or lease land in Israel.

He shouldn't even be in the same room as such a racist! Before Israel starts preaching about the nucleur capabilities of another country it should take a good look at itself and allow international inspections of its own sites.

Because the Holy Spirit I have received by the laying on of hands & with the sign of praising God in tongues & who healed me from a breakdown told me to toss their book out. While their Spirit tells them that the Mormon book also the Word of God. And the Mormon book explains what is written in the Holy Bible.

So? Why does their Spirit tell them something different than the Holy Spirit of Jesus Christ of Nazareth in the Holy Bible tells Christians of a Christian Church founded on the Rock (Jesus Christ, the Son of the Living God)?

Is their Spirit associated to the spirits they baptize for when they baptize for the dead? Or the spirit children still in their pre earth state? Or is their Spirit who they think are Gods Angels?

If we think that there's no God or our Creator than isn't that same as saying we created Ourselves? Isn't that same as saying we are God? Therefore it's the EGOtistical mentality of atheist I see in them. I believe our Creator gave us free will to believe and if we don't then our Creator would just leave us alone like a child who ran away from home. Because the child thinks he/she can do without his parents. Right?

In christianity we are told to be altruistic because every human being is made in the image and likeness of God:

"For I was hungry, and you gave me to eat: I was thirsty, and you gave me to drink: I was a stranger, and you took me in: Naked, and you covered me: sick, and you visited me: I was in prison, and you came to me.Then shall the just answer him, saying: Lord, when did we see thee hungry and fed thee: thirsty and gave thee drink? Or when did we see thee a stranger and took thee in? Or naked and covered thee? Or when did we see thee sick or in prison and came to thee? And the king answering shall say to them: Amen I say to you, as long as you did it to one of these my least brethren, you did it to me." - Matthew 25: 35-40.

Is true altruism possible if you have no religious belief at all? What would be the motive in that case? Wouldn't survival of the fittest or personal gain over-rule altruistic tendencies? Why not live completely selfishly?

Just an honest "?"

agree with me on this one? Here are the lyrics:

The Silver Circle

Come to life my deviltry Possess this poor company
Our secret be benefit Their unhappy lack of it
Awaken my trusting friend My undisturbed reflection
So fluid your beauty All gears and teeth

Come Alive

Come to life my second skin To protect the madness locked within
Yet I know a place where we can touch in tongues
Though words did betray us Did bury our past Cry blasphemy
Cancer masters instinct Sad passive release

Come Alive

Take my dear ones The use of this spell may serve too well
Our mouth is our chalice Our tongue our sword
And truth holds a dozen doors One thrown open wide shall yield one more
Yet mystery remains above their eyes

Come Alive

2a: There are two personages who constitute the great, matchless, governing, and supreme power over all things - by whom all things were created and made that are created and made, whether visible or invisible;

2b: whether in heaven, on earth, or in the earth, under the earth, or throughout the immensity of space.

2c: They are the Father and the Son: The Father being a personage of spirit, glory, and power, possessing all perfection and fullness.

2d: The Son, who was in the bosom of the Father, a personage of tabernacle, made or fashioned like unto man, or being in the form and likeness of man - or rather, man was formed after his likeness and in his image.

2j: And he being the Only Begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth, and having overcome, received a fullness of the glory of the Father - possessing the same mind with the Father;

2k: which Mind is the Holy Spirit, that bears record of the Father and the Son;"
