I advised them about things being taken out of content, and invited them to read the Song of Solomon if they had not done so. I also would have asked them had thy never heard of inheritence,because of course the innocent babe had not sinned, but had inherited original sin from his original ancestors in a spiritual manner. Do you think the bible teaches
everyone to abstain from sex or lust, outside of marriage? Fortification is a sin last time I heard.

Terrorist Suicide bombers - VAST majority are male, a very few are female
School shooters - ALL male as far as I know
Murderers - How many convicted murders are female compared to male? Not many
Torture in the world - Iraq war, Saddam, George Bush. Saddam's torture videos show all MEN torturing people.

I am male but I believe it would be better, more peaceful if women ruled.

How in the world do you have gay friends? I seriously think people are lying when they say this just to try and make it seem like they're not a hate mongerer.

Yes, it might be possible to separate your beliefs from the friendship, but I honestly couldn't have a friendship with someone who thought part of me was unnatural and wrong, ya know?

They must be some really high tolerance gay friends, cause I couldn't go do it. I need friends who accept and love me. All of me.

Could you really stay friends with someone who disagreed totally with a part of who you are, obviously not the whole thing, but still?

If religion is all imaginary as you claim, why does the natural instinct of attacking a threat kick in? Are you afraid deep down that you are wrong and will pay a price for your disbelief?

Some Christians say that other religions worship false gods and I would like to know how you distinguish a TRUE god from a FALSE god.

Did you know that the Hail Mary prayer is totally Bible based"
"Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.
Blessed are thou among women, and blessed id the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, mother of God,
pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen"

Lets break it down:
1) Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee (direct quote from scripture: Luke 1:28)
2) Blessed are thou among women, and blessed id the fruit of thy womb, Jesus (direct quote from scripture: Luke 1:42)
3) Holy Mary, mother of God (Christ is God incarnete, and since Mary bore God in her womb she is rightly called the Mother of God: "Theotokos", or "God-bearer". Remeber what Elizabeth said: "And how has it happened to me, that the mother of my Lord would come to me?" Luke 1:43)

Was it just a lucky find, or were the scientists digging where they were for a reason? Where should we dig for a fossil that would support Creationism? If it is as science as its proponents say, there should be a testable prediction.

Here is my previous quesion, most atheist that responded agreed that there is a remote possibility that God does exist.

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AhoZFQ2QVCDpiRLOf__WMiPsy6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20071116135452AA29NQy

So now my question is, if you admit that there is the possibility. Then why do you think others are stupid and/or illogical if they place more value on the same possibility that you are admitting to?

In Asia, it is believed that eating shark fin will extend life, cure diseases, make men more Verile and make women more beautiful. Science proved these claims wrong, but people STILL believe. Why?
In Africa, it is believed that eating black rhino horn will extend life, cure diseases, make men more Verile and make women more likely to have boy babies. Science proved these claims wrong, but people STILL believe. Why?
Worldwide, Christians believe that the bible is the word of god. But now numerous books (Misquoting Jesus is one) prove that the bible is vastly falsified and made up by translators and scribes. But Christians still believe it. Why?

You say its because its the word of god, but written by man. So what parts do you follow and what parts do you ignore? Why? You say its the word of god, but most of it can be ignored (Old Testament)?

Why would you base your beliefs, your life, your heart and soul on something that has been vastly falsified? Desperation? Innate need?

And please, tell me what religious beliefs you have. I'm doing a paper for school on how religion might be related to pet ownership.
