Society & Culture - 28 October 2007

I went to take a look at the following questions:

After scrolling for 5 minutes, I noticed there was nothing being asked. It's just someone trying to earn brownie points for evangelism.

I sent the person a very polite e-mail explaining that this is a questions & answers forum, not a place for people to spam multiple chapters from their respective holy books. I asked them to respect the rules of the forum, and concluded with "peace be with you"

The user responded back with a very hostile and rude e-mail telling me I was the one guilty of abuse ( I love how he tried to turn it around on me ) and " if u dont like what i post just dont read it" and "u better mind ur own busness from now on"

Were his posts Abuse of the forum?
Should we report him?
Was I being abusive towards him?

opinions?

does it look weird, or scary, or just nothing out of the ordinary ?

Muslims claim, that a proof the Koran was from God, is that it contains scientifically accurate information about Embryology before man discovered it for himself. However, all the information in the Koran regarding Embryology is copied from three sources, 1. A Greek doctor named Galen, who lived of 150 AD. 2. A Jewish doctor named Samuel ha-Yehudi who lived 150 AD. 3. the Greek father of medicine Hippocrates who lived 400 BC. My question is: in light of the fact that all the information contained in the Koran was already in print by these three doctors, will you retract the argument on Embryology? If not, will you supply one detail revealed in the Koran about Embryology, that was not already revealed or that was new?

To hand out to those pesky trick or treaters? I hate them; it's a form of extortion.

How do you feel about the thumb power here on Y/A? Do you have it yet? If so, do you use it responsibly or do you abuse it?

A feminist is someone who is fighting against discrimination directed at women. Period.

This means that feminists are fighting for ALL women - conservative and liberal alike. So why is it that conservative women try to smear feminists?

surely such an amazing event as this:

1 Thess 4:16 - "because the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a commanding call, with an archangel’s voice and with God’s trumpet,"

1 thess 5:3 - "While people are saying, "There is peace and security," then sudden destruction will come upon them) as labor pains come upon a pregnant woman, and they will not escape. "

2 Thess 1:7-8 and to grant(J) relief to you who are afflicted as well as to us, when(K) the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven(L) with his mighty angels 8(M) in flaming fire, inflicting vengeance on those(N) who do not know God and on those who(O) do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus.

would be recorded in the history books. Where is Jesus ruling from now? What is Christ's second "presence"? what is he up to at the moment? Maybe World War I was the destruction Paul was talking about.

I can't help it. I have my lady dracula costume, which I look really hot in by the way. I enjoy seeing all the kids in costume. Are you planning anything special? Any favorite spooky kind of beverages? Like bloody looking drinks or orange drinks with a kick?

There was a middle-aged couple that had two stunningly beautiful teen-aged daughters. They decided to try one last time for the son they always wanted. After months of trying, the wife became pregnant and sure enough, nine months later delivered a healthy baby boy. The joyful father rushed to the nursery to see his new son. He took one look and was horrified to see the ugliest child he had ever seen.

He went to his wife and said that there was no way that he could be the father of that child. "Look at the two beautiful daughters I fathered."

Then he gave her a stern look and asked, "Have you been fooling around on me?"

The wife smiled sweetly and said, "Not this time".
