Does anyone else HATE this snide little comment? Because it's moot, it's beside the point. It has nothing of importance towards the pro-life/pro-choice debate.

The only way that statement would hold ANY value, would be if my was still pregnant with me...which if she was, I certainly wouldn't be here typing.

Only human beings wonder why the physical universe corresponds to abstract mathematical theorems. Only humans worship God.Human beings are conscious of time, reality, and truth. That is not at all like an animal is it???

Didnt God send Bob Marley to this earth ? I listened to Bob marleys music and the words are so from the scriptures and speak many spiritual things. He spoke constantly of peace and equality and " emancipation of the mind " from hatred. His message reminded me of Dr. ML King. I know he smoked pot but it was taught to him by his people that " God had said it was ok " and I am sure he went to Heaven in spite of that.

My friend said that because I am Lutheran, I am not a true Christian. She said that her church teaches that Lutherans, Catholics, Jehovah's Witnesses, and so on are not really Christians because they don't take The Bible literally. She said that the biggest problem is baptism. Apparently her church believes that children are not to be baptised because they are not old enough to understand and that God wants us to be old enough to understand the meaning and to make a public testimony. Then she said, that confirmation is not needed and the that the seven sacraments of catholic belief are not accurate and so on.

I just read a question of someone else and this person answered, "Catholicism and Christianity are not one ant the same."
What? I thought that anyone that church that has God and the center of it teaching and beliefs and believes that Jesus is the son of God is supposed to be a Christian based church. Am I wrong?

teacher was marking my assignment in class and she gave me 24/30...when she handed to back to me and i saw the mark i *sighed* (and it was quite soft) but she heard me and asked me what was wrong..when i told her that i expected to get at least 28/30 she then gave me a 20min lecture and told me to write a 2page essay (as punishment) on why i shouldn't undermine a teachers authority and teaching skills..
was i wrong to tell her that i expected more marks, because she DID ask me why i *sighed* and i wasn't even trying to be rude

My aunt has been divorced for almost 20yrs now. Basically, she married somebody very young, the person did not treat her well...etc. Now, this man she married had been married previously, so she didn't get married in a Catholic church. I know that if two people are married in the Catholic church, the only way they could remarry in the Catholic church again is if that previous marriage is annulled...but what her previous marriage was never recognized by the Catholic church to begin with....does it still have to be annulled if she wants to remarry or can she just remarry in the Catholic church since it would be the first marriage recognized by the Catholic church?

Anyone have any idea why the following answer would have been given a violation?

"I like the KJV but as long as the Bible has been faithfully translated I think any version is fine. I would make sure you avoid the New World Translation. It was rewritten by the JW's to solely support their cult."

Nothing that breaks the rules in it that I can see. Does appealing ever work?

And to make this a religion question do you believe in God?

Then why did God tell Moses and Joshua to go killing people?

I can understand if the armies of the other nations would fall against the Hebrews, but why did they have to go killing the women and children?! Doesn't that just make the ancient Hebrews like al-Quaeda?!

I have nothing against Jews. I want to stress that; one of my best friends is a Jew; my boss is a Jew(and he's a great guy).

And also, I know that in God's eyes the peoples' ancestors sinned, but the people in the cities at the time didn't know!! Why couldn't the Hebrews send profits instead!?

Pagans have their own path of belief that they chose to follow. With many Pagans, they have a belief that Diana is the mother goddess, she married Lucifer, they had a child named Aradia. The god Lucifer is not the christian satan, yet christians seem to think so. To Pagans, Lucifer is the bearer of light, and of knowledge. With Paganism, also comes Pagan Witch's, this to say if you believe in the god Lucifer (aka satan) then you are considered a satanic witch. I have been a Pagan satanic witch for the past 25 years, and there are many upon many more of us, to say tens of thousands, is exact. So when I read that young ladies question of her asking about Doctors. And I read the answers, I think many of you need to study Paganism more in depth. There are many religions out there, most likely ones you have never heard of, so if you don't know, don't answer. So what part of Paganism don't you understand, as Pagans are those who are not christian, jews or muslim.
