Here is my list why abortions are a good thing
1. Too many people in the world, by 2050 population expected to be 12 billion, how is the planet going to support and feed all these people
2. The rate of teen pregnancy is up - new study finds it has incresed for the first time since the 70's
3 same study found and increase in unwed/single mothers
4. A majority of children from #2 and 3 end up on welfare and lack of finances is a major reson for abortions. So the hypocracy comes when so many republicans are against tax increases and against social programs yet want all these welfare babies.
5. Babies from foster homes and welfare families are less likely to go to college and more likely to end up criminals
6. Having said #5 why not just kill them befor they are born instead of killing after they grow up and committ crimes

I suppose we could just provide more education on safe sex and birth control but the only problem is that most republicans are against that too

Can someone please tell me when the inspirational story of a female that was saved by Jesus (he said those who without sin throw the first stone…) was added to the bible and why?

I am looking for a CD with Maoz Tsur on it. The trouble is. most of what I find is the first verse in Hebrew and then some awful English lyrics that sound forced to fit the tune. I would like to find a version that has all the Hebrew verses and preferably no English. Can anyone recommend a CD?

The Top Answerer in Religion & Spirituality is imacatholic2, obviously a Catholic.

It was he that pointed me to the Joint Declaration on the Doctrine of Justification, when I gave him best answer to my question a long time ago:
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Am9YaUfxadfKKRCkC9WY.hvty6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20071003112255AAwUkuc

I could not believe this, so I tried to confirm it by asking many Catholics. All Catholics answered that it was.

However, I have now been condemned by another Catholic as a liar for sharing this teaching. They claimed it was not accepted by the Holy See.

So, again...I implore you:
Is the Joint Declaration on the Doctrine of Justification:

http://www.vatican.va/roman_curia/pontifical_councils/chrstuni/documents/rc_pc_chrstuni_doc_31101999_cath-luth-joint-declaration_en.html

...accepted by the Vatican, the Holy See...as truth???

All they do is moan about other peoples cultures and they are rude. They remain in their own groups and don't associate outside of them. Why not stay home? Oh wait I know why because your country is shiite.

.... was there then we would save one bucket load of money. As a tax payer I object to paying for a family that is so out of touch and in thier own little world etc. Yeah yeah, I can hear you all now ....the hard work they do.....the tourism....do you really want a president. Come on get real, the royal family have never done a hard days work in their lives, the biggest tourist attraction in Scotland is the Loch Ness monster and we all know that doesnt exist and our Prime Minister will do for me! The fact is we dont need them, sack the lot of them I say and we can kid on they are there it would probably bring in a lot more tourists. Wake up people (or subjects as they would call us) and smell the roses. Sack em all and sack em now!!!!!!!

Here's the story:

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20071206/ap_on_he_me/teen_births

So: When are the religionists going to figure out lying to kids about condoms isn't helping? When are they going to figure out people-- and teenagers-- are going to keep on having sex no matter how much Jesus they throw at them? When are they going to make the connection that teaching folks how to avoid pregnancy will automatically reduce or eliminate their favorite talking point: abortion? When are they going to join the rest of us in the 21st century? It's time for factual, science-based, truthful, accurate, religion-free sex education. For adults, too.

Every time the fire department is called in my town, a very loud whistles blows for several minutes. What is the purpose of such a whistle?

With all the cell phone and beeper technology, fireman could surely be called by phone or with an alarm in their homes. Why should the whole town be woke up in the middle of the night? Public whistles should only be used in a public emergency, like a flood or tornado.

If an angel came to your door and said 'I am an angel', would you find a scientific explanation for that? If God smashed your head with a note that said 'I am God' and then you looked up and He was in the sky smiling at you, would you have an explanation for that? Just curious.

P.S. Since I know its EXTREMELY hard for atheists to NOT be sarcastic,
