I can't believe Lowe's would go as far as changing the name of a Christmas tree to a Family tree! Hasn't "PC" gone a little too far?!

Do you believe in ghosts? If so, how do you justify them scientifically?

Okay, so for a while now, i've been trying to figure out my religion. Here's what i believe:
*good chance that there is no god
*but there still might be
*religion is basically just: believe in god, or burn in hell, and i think that's completly messed up.
*it's very controlling
*i beleive in evolution
*but, i do have a very open mind to all religions
help?
what am i?!

And interesting love interest for Nora/Sally Field in the History Teacher-Stan Harris/Chevy Chase...
And how schmaltzy that everyone seems to be getting love interests at the same time (minus maybe Uncle Saul--who needs to make a stand about himself)...

The 10 plagues of Egypt have been dismissed by many scientists as naturally occuring events that were attributed to God because the ancients didn't understand them. How can the plague regarding the death of all firstborn males in Egypt that did not have the blood of the sacrificial lamb on the door be explained naturally? In order for this to have happened naturally this force of nature would have had too:
1) Select only males
2) Select only males that are firstborn
3) Select only males that do not have the blood of the sacrificial lamb painted on their door

I know you guys don't believe in Jesus. But has the thought ever crossed your mind that if you are wrong and He exists. That one day you will stand before Him and be judged on what you have said and done? That what you say about Him will be held against you? Does that thought ever cross your minds at all?

why? and don't use the arguement "because marriage should be between a woman and a man" - that doesn't really say much does it? WHY should it only be between a man and a woman?

I'm trying to understand why some people are so closed minded about it.

And how does if effect you?

Also, please state how old you are.

(I'm straight, but I support gay marriage)

I was watching Larry King and they had a panel of ghost hunters and sensitives. They also had a critic that made a real good point , he said , If you are a real sensitive then submit yourself to a credible college or magazine for official testing, prove it and if your real, collect a million dollars and be done with it. The same goes for ghost hunters, take your evidence or whatever you have and put a essay together, submit it and let them decide. Since NOBODY has done that, it is hard to trust them.....especially sensitives. I tend to believe a show like TAPS more, at least they try to debunk cases. What do you think ?

GEN 17:17 "Abraham fell facedown; he laughed and said to
himself, 'Will a son be born to a man a hundred years old?
Will Sarah bear a child at the age of ninety?'"

Christ never said he came to abolish the laws, just to fulfill them. Why then do Christians throw out the Old Testament rules and regulations that Christ did not amend when he fulfilled the Law.

Thanks everyone.

.Mark Chapman was a fan of the Beatles, particularly Lennon, but was reportedly angered by Lennon's infamous 1966 remark that the Beatles were "more popular than Jesus". Jan Reeves, sister of one of Chapman's best friends, reports that Chapman "seemed really angry toward John Lennon, and he kept saying he could not understand why John Lennon had said it. According to Mark, there should be nobody more popular than the Lord Jesus Christ. He said it was blasphemy. The song "Imagine" also angered Chapman – at prayer meetings and religious rallies, Chapman and his prayer group also sang a parody with the lyric "Imagine, imagine John Lennon is dead."

why is it in all your smarts you have no common sense at all?

blessed be my God who chose the foolish things to confound the wise and the weak things to overthrough the strong,
moses diddnt have a good grammer either but with God he defeated all of egypt.
so the question is not how is my grammer or how smart i am ..but what will you do with Jesus?
good thing for me i am only a follower of Him, i dont claim to be the way the truth or the life,,, but He does,,

so think about what ya say , your talking to him , not me.

Why do so many people say that you only believe in G-d if you believe in the Bible(including the old testament).
I believe in the TORAH(not the new testament), but I still believe in G-d.
Please stop saying this all the time.
