they are saying that without religions thousands of years ago , many more people would be killed and tortured, people would be stealing too much and be very violent. people needed some fictional good night stories, so they didnt kill and rape and steal and cheat on their partners??????????? so it is true that religious people hide how evil they are, except few cant hide their temptations like father O'Grady.

I am not encouraging racial hatred, but why is it wrong to speak out about not liking Great Britain being invaded by thousands of these islamic fanatics. If I was to go and live in another country I would expect to have to live by their laws and not force them to change them to suit me! I am sick and tired of hearing that British people have had to stop wearing a cruifix in case it offends Muhammad and his clans. I even heard of a hamburger stall being told to move because it was next to a mosque! C'mon get real! Its time this country got tough! Come and live in the Uk if you can provide skills and leave your muslim ways behind you! This is Great Britain, we love western style life, we dont breed christian suicide bombers and we want to try and keep Britain great instead of turning into the Muslem homeland. If you dont like our way of life then go back to your own country. C'mon the Brits

It's by my favorite LDS composer, Sally DeFord! This particular piece is one of my favorites - it's called 'Guard Him, Joseph'. One of the rare christmas songs which includes the Savior's stepfather. Anybody else like it?

I've heard, (I'm a kaffir), that Mohammed, peace be upon his name, went to Jerusalem and ascended on his horse to heaven and talked to Allah.
I read a biography of the prophet but found no trace of this story. Is it in the Koran?
This book is not easily available where I live.

Just Before I begin , I'm not being rascist/ Narrowminded / Ignorant or anything But,,,

Does noone else get annoyed by the way over-sensitive Muslims treat people so they dont get offended! Im not picking on any individualsor the whole group becasue I know the majority are just normal people , Just The few that do things like
1- Ban peopel from saying 'Merry christmas' becasue Its offensive to Allah. Is banning saying that not offensive to jesus?
2- The whole teddy bear situation. Who would get offended at that?!?! Would a christian get offended at someone naming A teddy Jesus?, Yet they ruin a womans life by putting her in jail!
3- When communities move over to the UK , then complain about band parades/Marches because its nothing to do with them!


Like seriously!

No doubt this question will be removed, Because Im probably BEING OFFENSIVE, But I really don't think I am. I'm only sticking up for people like that poor teacher!

Can a Catholic please explain the following: "An indulgence is a remission before God of the temporal punishment due to sins whose guilt has already been forgiven"? Is this telling me that my guilt has been forgiven, but not my punishment (albeit temporary)? I may have to clarify this question, so please come back.

I just saw one where they said if you smoke in an apartment adjacent to one where there're children some of the smoke can get through cracks in the walls and stuff and harm children. COME-ON-MAN! It's cigarette smoke not cyanide gas! Yes, second hand smoke is dangerous when you sit in it for long periods of time when other people are smoking. But I don't think 2ppm's going to hurt anyone. I think bigger worries are polystyrene and household chemicles and such.
That's all we need is to make tobacco smoking illegal right? Then it'll just go away like all the other illegal drugs and not be a problem, right? Be more like prohibition I think. One more cash flow for organized crime.

It is well known that Orchid seeds, among thousands of other types of seed - many local to the area Jesus was apparently in, are smaller. How can you believe he was divine when he makes such a blatantly ignorant error?

This is not taken out of context. He didn't clarify that he meant 'locally' later on, or that he was talking about seeds used on the farm around the corner. He said "ALL other seeds"

Isn't it ridiculously obvious to everyone that this was just a man, working with the information that was available to him at the time?
