It's a secret society, I have nightmares of them.Statistics tell us theres a slight increase in lefthanders which tells us we're being invaded by creatures from alien universes. Left handed people make me sick, freak me out. If you don't believe they are spawn of the satan, DO the research for yourself.Why do you think there are more of us, then THEM?Theyre strategically placed within families.Once in a while you find more than 1 in a family unit. If predomintly a family of dogooders, you might find 3 or 4 to balance things out.
If right handed like me theres no way to get inside the head of one of these freak of natures.
They can & will read each others minds, speak to each other telepathically. Even beyond the grave.They have built in radar and scanners behind the eyeballs to sense when another one of them is in the vicinity. If youre lefthanded & truly know you arent alien or satan, my apoligies. The rest of us have no way of ever really knowing til science cracks the cod

Many people have claimed that the King James Version of the Bible was edited specifically to suit the needs of the Church of England, and is thus unreliable.

Are there any other versions of the Bible written for specific religious denominations in order to fit their own interpretation of God's Word? If so, which one(s)? Be specific.

So seriously, what about those people that never have or will hear about Jesus? Undocumented tribes in South America and whatnot.

I ask bible thumpers this in debates all the time and I get one of two(or both) cop out answers.

"If you care so much why don't you go witness" (I don't, I'm just wondering what your putty is for this glaring plot hole)

and

"They can look around, see the beauty of nature, and believe in their heart that there is a God, and therefore they're saved" (Right. A god, not "The" God)

Christianity is specific in that you must accept Jesus as your Savior, or you'll burn in hell forever. Their answer for the Pygmies(or whatever) seems completely opposite to what they try and convince people every day.

But what if I believed there was some form of higher power, but didn't outright express a belief in Jesus, his Dad-Self and Spirit-Self, then why can't I go to heaven?

I have had the same phone now for almost 50 years, and suddenly it started beeping at me! I believe it is cursing, so I sturck it down i the name of the lord, and burned it. Then I srinkled holy water over the burial ground. My neighbors called the police because they thought I was trying to burn down the neighborhood. Should I press charges?

To be ‘on time’ in our cities today, one needs to have a certain amount of aggressiveness. I think when Jesus would be on a freeway he’d be too nice and always let merging traffic in front of him while the drivers behind him go insane. And even on public transport, he’d stand at the door of a bus or train and let people go before him. His philosophy might have been great back in the days of donkey carts and wheelbarrows but in today’s modern cities, it’s next to completely useless, don’t you think so?

Word translations seem to be a big problem in todays world. I have a feeling that the "traditions" of yesteryear have been lost in translation over the centuries.
What are your thoughts regarding presents vs presence?
Do you think people have gone too far away from the real meaning of Christmas & other Holidays?

So many people think that women in Islam are oppressed. Why? Is it because we wear a hijab to keep ourselves modest and away from lustful eyes, unlike the skimpy dancers they show on tv? Is it because of rumors like the one the asker just said? Is it because we wear burkas to be modest and keep our beauty for our husbands only? Is it because a man can have 4 wives in Islam only if they have pity for the woman and is trying to save them from the evils of war, or because they have pity for the widow? Ignorance is contagious.

Not to be blessfomus to all the Christian brothers and sisters out there, just a hypothetical question. I know it is a strong belief that Jesus was the son of GOD, but suppose he just remained a goat herder. How interesting the last 2000 years would have been?

Early in the week I purchased a box of mangoes (20 of hugest juciest fresh mangoes anyone ever did see for $17.00). But the kids ate 'em and I only ate 15 of them... so I bought another box full today and I've hidden them in my office behind the photocopier.

So what do you think? I mean.. they are really yummy and guttonly isn't such a bad sin is it? Will I still get into paradaise? What do you think?

Perhaps I watch too much tv or maybe my mind wonders to often but I was thinking that maybe we should pre-write a who did it list just in case we are killed?? It seems that the husband always gets blamed first and if I were murdered- I know without a daught in my mind that mine would never do that. So should we pre-write a list of our enemies and foes and keep the list in a safe place just in case? Maybe having witnesses sign it? Then again,...sometimes even the nicest people can do the worst things. Look at Selena,..her best friend killed her. Any thoughts??
