Why are ther anti-gays but no anti-lobster Christians?

LEV 11:9-12
Of all the creatures living in the water of the seas and the streams, you may eat any that have fins and scales. But all creatures in the seas or streams that do not have fins and scales—whether among all the swarming things or among all the other living creatures in the water—you are to detest. And since you are to detest them, you must not eat their meat and you must detest their carcasses. Anything living in the water that does not have fins and scales is to be detestable to you.

Please note: that in some versions, as this one, the Bible quotes both homousexuality and shellfish eating as "detestable" in others it is an "abomination" but the words are equal and consistant.

Do you anti-gays also protest lobster?
Or do you partake of this sinful food?

I'm a practicing agnostic...but...a little ritual never hurt anyone. So should I call a priest, a shaman, the local wiccan society or is there a way to bless my new home that I haven't considered?

If God judges us by the 10 commandments, are sins, if we believe in God or not and if we have accepted Jesus as are savior or not. Do u think the judging is gonna be a fair judging?

I think everyone has broken the 10 commandments and sinned whether they're a good moral person or a bad immoral person if u see what I mean. It seems like a lot of good moral people gonna end up in Hell if thats how the judging works.

this is for the winners who believe that 666 is the sign of the devil and represents the apocolypse. newsflash: 6-6-06 happens every 100 yrs and any intelligent person knows that the world doesnt end every 100 yrs.

My 5 year old is asking alot of questions pertaining to death. what happens after you die, heavan, hell, God...I will be honest. I'm confused myself. I was born Catholic but i'm not practicing, my husband is no religion...this is why I want to be careful on this matter. Give him the best explaination and let him decide what he wants for himself.
How would or did you go about this?
Thanks!

y Christianity is better than Judaism? Some say no it is not

both of them are good, see : fathers ,Grandfather
but bible fathers is opposite to old testament, Grandfather
Bible buying , Judaism is banking
In Bible no money savings , n Judaism, Bank, Land Taxation, also Jehovah, are Saturday,


that's why we love father more than Grandfathers, cause father is not greedy
but If you r n: USA the Jewish win big time
that is why all the land Planet ,Star, belong to land owners Grandfathers great,UK,USA (Saturn)

they are Grandfathers, creator,Future= afternoons color=Orange
Judaism, old testament , based on :,strology,Astral, Asterism,promise,
the future well foooooouck you if you didn’t save from now

so they are greedy cause they care about grandchildren ,

cause not all the fathers are good

If my church lied to me all this time about Jesus having a wife and kids, I would want to know about it. If he had a German Sheppheard named Rex, I wouldn't care. A continuing bloodline is a little more sidnificant. Come to think of it, why did the Godpel of Judas get thrown out, anyway. How long have people been hiding thigs about all this?

After being raped...maybe a year or two i began to realize that I felt like two people inside. I felt like my soul had been chopped in half and I was literally now two people. I was trying to be the sane one who controlled and cared for me the sick and shattered one. I guess some pple call it alter ego. It felt like I just was twin-ed into 2 of me. One dark and one worried that she would kill herself before i could get her healed. At other times I would be riding down the road and it seemed my body would disappear and I would see a little insane demon inside me...tormenting the sickly me. Once as I was sitting with my mother I seemed to warp into another realm and i saw this man run at me and slam himself into me I never EVER showed or show any emotion when this stuff happens. I feel outwardly like a stone statue when it does. Will someone please find out whats been wrong with me ? Or just tell me what ur opinion is ? It helps to hear anything you say. Plz pray for me also.

This is more of a confession, too. I know I seem hard on Muslims, asking lots of questions, especially to the females. This is why. I have been over there a combined total of 3 years throughout deployments, and I have observed the actual culture in Iraq, Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia. Let me say, by far, the Kuwaiti woman has it made.

What sticks with me is when I was in Saudi, all of us female personnel were called out to a formation by our 1SG, and given a basic "rules of behavior" rundown that we had to abide by when off our compound. It was very demeaning to me as an American woman to be told what I can, and cannot do, that was normal in my home land.

Outside this village, we made a breif stop in our convoy to change a tire on a LMTV. There was a woman and a man out in this field fussing with eachother. The woman was pregnant, and obviously so. I had no idea what they were saying, it was in Arabic. Well, next thing you know, the man punches this pregnant woman in the face...TBC

What are your thoughts on the Westboro Baptist Church showing up at our fallen soldiers' funerals to protest the war in Iraq and that they believe the military is run by homosexuals?

I for one think that money and energy expended should go to what God would want them to do...........assist the needy instead of making a horrible day for families worse.

I think in this instance the constitutional right of gathering, protesting, freedom of speech, et cetera, has been taken WAY out of context and grossly abused. What they are doing should be illegal and punishable by very stiff fines. Our past, present and future military fought and still are fighting for them to maintain their legal right to harrass the ones that die doing it? C'mon!

If it was something (work, hobbies, religion...) you invested money/time/effort in, would you want your money back? If it meant you would lose a bunch of friends (or ex-friends), i.e. all your friends would you still go ahead and quit? this happened to me, now I am getting used to the fact that
I am having to make new friends, find something else that fills my time, get rid of all the stuff related to this old activity and that is a constant reminder of this old 'thing' I used to do.

John 6:22-71
Verse 53: "unless you eat the flesh of the son of man and drink his blood, you do not have life within you."
Jesus is present always with us when we eat his flesh and drink his blood in the Eucharist.

Verse 53: "amen, amen I say to you," other translations: "truly, truly I say to you," Jesus says that what he is about to say is true, literal, and factual.
Jesus says eat my flesh. He cannot be more clear. In the original Greek it says chew my flesh.
verse 55: for my flesh is true food, and my blood true drink.

Light and Darkness, life and death, right and left, are brothers of one another. They are inseparable. Because of this neither are the good good, nor evil evil, nor is life life, nor death death. For this reason each one will dissolve into its earliest origin. But those who are exalted above the world are indissoluble, eternal.

Perhaps we should try and indulge in a game of fantasy, or shall we call it “scientific experimentation”:
1. Can you create “something” from “nothing”?
2. Can you give the nothing you “have created” life?

Or, would you rather stay in a western society and be Muslim so you are not subjected to harsh laws just on the basis of being female?
