9 We are given no miraculous signs;
no prophets are left,
and none of us knows how long this will be.

for slavery, should the Catholic church apologize...for the crusades?

Second Part.
If teaching evolution in the class rooms is brain washing and "lies" should churches teach all religions in Sunday school, giving children the freedom to accept what ever religion they feel is best as they mature?

Underweight people are thin for lots of reasons, often due to health. They can be as sensitive to their size as an overweight person is to their size. But average size people have no problem telling them they are skinny and puny. It seems it is ok to call an underweight person skinny but it is not ok to call an overweight person fat. Why do people think it isn't rude to insult underweight people about their size but it is rude to insult overweight people about their size?

About Me: I am 14 years old, 95.0 average, I play tennis, soccer, and i run track. Almost anyone that knows me (including adults) will say that I am smart, mature, and responsible.

I don't believe in God, even though my mom and dad are Christian. And I would prefer if you didn't give me answers with quotes from the bible, I'm not interested in becoming a Christian. I am Wiccan. And being a Wiccan has nothing to do with Satan. Satan is a Christian foe. It doesn't go with the Wiccan religion.

My question is: Do you think that I am to young to decide my religion? I mean, everybody should be able to live their life the way that they want to.

There are passages of it that is violent, and there has been very many times when Christians have done violent things.
So ask yourself do I really want to take a group of people in which by the way you are a minority and really tick them off?
In Europe those people are kind of laid back and let you burn up stuff and cather to your whims and say "don't do that they may get mad and tear stuff up"
In the USA violent crime is probably the worst in the world.
right up there with Iraq. The only difference is in Iraq your in the majority. So my question to you is if you knew you were the smallest boy in class would you go up to the football team with the largest boys in the class and start trying to pick a fight?
Put down their religion, their country and their deepest feelings.
Tell them they are wrong, violent and should change their religon because God is going to send them to hell to be tortured forever. That you and only you have the right religion and either convert or die?

I consider myself a Christian, but not in the traditional sense. I consider Jesus the greatest teacher of all time, but I'm not sure if he's the son of God. To say that seems almost pagan. So I'm Christian but confused and that's why I'm trying to find out about more religions.

The question is, why did God choose Muhammad as (in your belief) his most important prophet? Was there every any explanation in your religious texts for this?

Just curious, and thanks.

Ok I have a huge test tomorrow. On the Jewish fast days. Give me anything you know about them. I don't want bad answers. I want them to actually have information about the Jewish fasts. State which fast you are telling me about. Also I only want fasts that exist now adays, but you can tell me things that happened a long time ago if it has something to do with the fast. Thanks.
P.S. A best answer will be chosen for this question.
