When the Catholic Church changed the rules and it was no longer forbidden to eat meat on Friday, what happened to the people who went to hell for breaking that rule? Did they get let out?

Does anyone belive that there is more than one god? That god is not a man but god consists of two sides. The male and female side. The male side being the wise and intelligence and the female side being emotional and caring. I know there is such a thing as polytheism but does anyone think that churches are just streching the truth about religion and that god is not one being. It is made of two. I hate the way churches push religion in your face and how they try to persuade you to become "one of them" religously? I think that there is NOT one god. But there are many gods. What do you think?

Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. Love does not demand its own way. Love is not irritable, and it keeps no record of when it has been wronged. It is never glad about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.

Peace and Love

In a christian context:
The bible teaches that homosexuality is forbidden. So is revenge, and adultry and besiality.
I will no longer argue the point of how someone became homosexual.
I just wonder why this desire is not fought against like we should fight against other "natural", but prohibited desires?
I am not a 'homophobe", as I do not fear homosexuals. I am not a bigot, I am not intolerant. I have a firm set of beliefs that guide me and, as I am ot the arbiter of right and wrong, I rely on a higher, incorruptable standard.
I just wonder if anyone in the homosexual community has thought along these lines.
I guess I am asking if the same claim of "I was born this way" is acceptable to you if it is used in the case of people who like sex with young (pre-pubescent) children or sex with animals?
If not, How can you defeat their claim and keep yours?

I've been getting some interesting answers about animals and the capacity to sin (or lack therof).... do you (why do you) think that animals don't have souls or that animals do not have a god?

If God created the animals at the same time (more or less, we really don't know) as us than I imagine that they were created in order to serve a purpose and there is an ends to which they are called... the inverse of that would be to believe that God made animals just for the heck of it and that none of them really have any reason to live...

Does anyone know any relevant bible passages to this?

God told us that we will all stand before him on judgement day. And he also told us there is only one way to heaven. And that is throught Jesus. So what will you say to God when you stand before him, because we all will.

1. If he loves them why does he not remove them from hell?
2. Even if it were possible for someone to reject God and choose to go to hell, if he loved them why would he let that happen?
3. Does God love the idea of a person having so called "freewill" more than he loves the individual?
4. If God still loves the person in hell, can you love your child, spouse or others that way?

Yes I know that the Quran is the Word of God told to Mohammed. But my question is who actually wrote it? Mohammed was illiterate he could not read nor could he write. Which means not only did he not write the Quran he did not check to make sure who ever wrote it got it right. Who wrote the Quran? And how are Muslims so sure that this person or persons did not put their own spin on the text. And why is so little credit given to the person who actually sat down and took the time to write all that?

Religions other than Christianity are religions too...just as much if not - in some cases, more...valid.

So let me get this straight, Timothy Mcveigh went to heaven because he was a Christian and Gandhi went to hell?
