Here's how the universe came to be and if you deny this, may God help you! According to classical Greek theology, Chaos existed in the beginning, and then gave birth to Gaia (the Earth), Tartarus (the Underworld), Eros (desire), Nyx (the darkness of the night) and Erebus (the darkness of the Underworld). That's basically how life, the universe and everything began.

Now I know you might be dissuaded by some of parts of Greek mythology. The unbelievable parts that have all those mythical creatures like the hydra and the gorgon (medusa). But modern scholars say these creatures were actually DINOSAURS! See the word dinosaur was coined in the 1800s so the Greeks didn't have the exact word to describe all the giant reptiles so they used words like hydra and gorgon instead.

Does it all make sense now? Good.
So why don't you atheists accept creationism!?

Why do some of you spew hate? you can't wait to point fingers for who goes to hell. You call other religions evil and hell bound. You tell good people if you don't accept your message about Jesus right away they could die tomorrow and go to hell. So many are anti gay and intolerant of many beliefs. Keep in mind not everyone will ever believe everything you say. Than some of you go on to critique other religions and call them false or say Wiccans are witches when you haven't looked in depth at it.
And my favorite is when people call evolutionists evil because Satan made it. ok im done with my rant heres the end point?Is this something Jesus would ever do to people?

Don't have anything to do with foolish and stupid arguments, because you know they produce quarrels. And the Lord's servant must not quarrel; instead, he must be kind to everyone, able to teach, not resentful. Those who oppose him he must gently instruct, in the hope that God will grant them repentance. 2 Timothy 2:23

Gravity is only a theory. There is no actual proof that this theory is right. In fact, the theory is incomplete.

Should Gravity not be thought in school because it contredicts the Bible?

Why is it okay for a black person to call another black person the n-word but if a white person uses the word, they are racist?

I don't understand. Honestly.

What are the "rules" that make it okay to say and other times inappropriate to say?

I would like for the cohesiveness to be more widespread, awareness needs to be taught and learned in our community before we can properly spread it to others.

why do non-denominational people follow it? God did not write a book, and even their own Bible never mentioned that God wrote a book, so what makes them think the Bible is not man-made?

This is from an AAP report this morning. A Government who won"t fund this drug and help the dying?

Wednesday November 14, 10:22 AM (Australia)
Govt rejects funding breast cancer drug
A drug for women with advanced breast cancer has been rejected for a government subsidy, prompting calls to have it added to a specialist funding scheme.

Tykerb was approved by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) in August but has since been turned down twice for a subsidy under the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS).

The expensive drug is designed for women with the extremely fast-moving HER2-positive form of breast cancer who have failed on the blockbuster drug Herceptin.

The pharmaceutical company GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) currently subsidises the $45,000 treatment under an access scheme with the hope it would win a PBS subsidy.

But a government advisory committee last week refused to reimburse Tykerb for reasons that are not yet clear.

I understand that people do not go to their Temples for the purpose of corporate worship. Is there any time that Mormons gather for corporate worship? If so, where and when? If not, why not? Thanks.

This is a website for anyone who wants to save money. Who does not want to throw their mixer or coffepot, or computer out, just to get a newer model.
Type in Fixya, just like that to get the site. Now scroll down to the object you wish to fix. Really good directions.
And sound advice.

Remember when we were young & made fun of everyone? Yes we got punished for it, yet we still did it. Wasn't it fun to get the old people mad at us? I had one neighbor who chased me with a water hose when I came near his rose garden. I learned how to dodge his water attacks. Now, SOME of you have to remember how much fun it was. ADMIT IT...come on, share what you used to do as a kid.
