Because I am an idiot when it comes to computers and have been pushing buttons willy nilly I heard from someone saying that I have blocked them. I have not blocked anyone on purpose. How can I tell if I have? Sorry if this is the case.

Out of the Mouth! - Matthew 15:10-11
After Jesus called the crowd to him, he said, “Listen and understand what I am saying. It is not what people put into their mouths that makes them unclean. So, if it is what goes into the mouth that make one unclean what is?

So I kind of have a crush. But I haven't actually spoke to the person yet. She's in my class and the other day I looked at the names ahead of mine on the attendance sheet to learn her name. I then checked out her facebook profile. My main intention was to confirm her queerness, which I did.

The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spititualy discerned.

Do you think the british royals have had the most drama in their lives. Like with the whole diana thing, the funeral, the diana inquest, charles marriage to his mistress. It seems like an ongoing soap.

For purposes of this question, if you're an atheist or agnostic, please consider those to be your faith.

Thank you.

I have heard that it wasn't Eve. Apparently his first wife, I do not remember her name, was also made from the Earth as Adam was but God was displeased with her and then made Eve. I am sure that this is not in the Bible, so where have people gotten this information from? I am aware that are many books written after Jesus' death; however some did not make the "final cut" of the Bible.

For the past few months, I've been listening, watching & reading things that supposably prove God does not exist. I'm catholic,although, I'm not very religious. Since I've read & heard all those things, I've started to doubt there's a god. I don't want to believe this, i want to believe in God. I feel as if i am sinning for even thinking of the possibility that there is no God & there's no reason for me to be losing faith, only because of those things I've read. Sometimes i feel as if Im faking this, in having doubt, & sometimes i feel like i don't believe in God & as i type this i get scared. what if God is mad at me? What if in fact there is no god? but what if there is!? & i feel like i shouldn't be saying this[typing] because its wrong. sometimes i feel like God is mean. sometimes i sin & i say sorry but don't promise to not do it again because i know i will. sometimes i think bad things about God & tell him stuff but then say sorry.i dont know if its truly ME saying it or if its..

MADRID -- An imam who wrote a book on how to beat your wife without leaving marks on her body has been ordered by a judge in Spain to study the country's constitution.

The judge told Mohamed Kamal Mustafa, imam of a mosque in the southern resort of Fuengirola, to spend six months studying three articles of the constitution and the universal declaration of human rights.

Mr. Mustafa was sentenced to 15 months in jail and fined about $2,600 last year after being found guilty of inciting violence against women.

A judge released him after 22 days in jail on the condition that he undertake a re-education course.

The Spanish government has set up a commission to find ways for the Muslim community to regulate itself. A central recommendation is that imams speak Spanish and have a basic knowledge of human rights and Spanish law.

In his book "Women in Islam," published four years ago, Mr. Mustafa wrote that verbal warnings followed by a period of sexual inactivity could be us

I'm doing a talk about why it is reasonable to believe in creation. One of the illustrations I've come across is about how the universe is a more accurate time piece than any watch ever made, so if we came across a watch we might wonder amongst other things who made it. We would not wonder what natural process put it together. If the universe is a far more accurate timepiece, why would we conclude that it came about by a natural force rather than a supernatural one?

I think this is pretty potent reasoning, but I'm sure someone must have an argument against it. The question is - is it as potent as the 'watch' illustration?

I'm doing other research, but I need to get to the right information quickly, so I would also welcome direct comments as well as any information references.
