..... weren't years as we know them today?

I was thinking about how it doesn't make sense that people would have lived so long back then when ancient man, Homo Erectus, Australopithecus and even Neanderthal's average lifespan was not even half of what ours is. When you think of wild beasts eating them, venemous insects and reptiles biting them, infections with no antibiotics, no real knowledge of any medicines or the inside of the human body even, how could they have lived so long? I know God can do the impossible and cause them to live that long but what if a day wasn't a full 24 hr day and a year was shorter, too. That would explain why when they should've died younger they lived to extraodinarily old ages. What does everyone think of this? Maybe this is just silly.

Can anyone tell me where they are? Maybe interpret them for me. I am a homosexual and I would like to read these verses for myself. Especially in the New Testament.

because god said so? there must be some other reason WHY.

you get checked for STD's and you have a faithful partner. you have a vasectomy. you already have children. and its still wrong to have sex for pleasure? people cant have a whole battalion of children, cause they cant afford all the expenses. thats why a vasectomy is a good choice after you have enough kids.

what about people that are born infertile? if god created them, didnt he prevented them from having children?

sex is healthy too!!!! it decreases the risk of having a prostate cancer, heart diseases and many other things. and you can see many studies that sexually active people live longer.

I remember a couple of answers that Quran is God's message and an exact replica of the original message carved in stone in heaven. Does it mean that heaven version of Quran is also in Arabic ? And if heaven version is not in Arabic, that means the earth version is an Arabic translation. Please clarify. Thanksl

The catholic church shuns homosexuality, as most religions do. So, if a priest is such a holier than thou type guy, why is it he doesn't give in to his pent up sexual urges with a hooker, nun or other adult female, but a MALE child, no less. What is wrong with such a religion/culture? It sounds to me like some priests are homosexual, as well as child molesters. Do you agree? Discuss.

Will you pray from your heart, alone in your room and not use repetition, as Jesus told us to do?

Why or why not?

Have a nice day.

I'm going to get a lot of nonsense answers, but none that will be based on logic, reason or facts. Because there is no other answer that stands under inspection.

Is anyone else annoyed and sick of people who answer questions rudely or with wisecracks? I know I am. Most people come on here because they really need something answered or could be scared or a number of other things. I think it needs to stop. What do you think?

Real answers only please. All rude answers or answers that are wisecracks will be reported. Thank you.

Muhammed,
All God's creatures are His family; and he is the most beloved of God who doeth most good to God's creatures.

Riches are not from an abundance of wordly goods, but from a contented mind.

When you see a person, who has been given more than you in money and beauty; then look to those who have been given less. So that you may not hold God's benefits in contempt.

He will not enter hell who hath faith equal to a mustard seed in his heart; and he will not enter Paradise who hath a single grain of pride, equal to a mustard seed, in his heart.

This Man is highly respected by George Barnard Shaw and Micheal Hart picked him as the top most influencial personalty of history. Have so called Muslims ever read and follow his hard work and humble loving ways? Have Christians followed Jesus Christ and his loving ways too?
Why is there so much difference between them and their followers?

why do catholics shun criminals such as rapists and theives, yet they donate millions of dollars to their churches to get their child molesting priests out of hot water with the law? After reading about how the catholic church covers up thousands of child molestation cases with their donated cash, why do catholics continue to feel they are making the best choice in their faith?

How is it unintelligent to propose that a creator or creators (namely "God(s)") did it? How is that unintelligent or irrational?

If you think it's unintelligent or irrational to believe God(s) set everything in motion, do you believe we have the capability to eventually explain pre-Big Bang phenomena? Can you give me some theories on how that would ever be possible?

Yes, it has made world news that Pope Benedict XVI suspects that demon posession is dramatically on the rise, due to teenage interest in Satanism, witchcraft, atheism and the occult. He has made a call for more excorcists, and a stronger belief in a literal Devil, citing the weakening of this view among Christians as a leading contributor to this paranormal dilemna. Does any of this sound just a bit 17th century-esque to any of you others on Y!A???
