... why do Christians refer to Jesus as the "Son of God" if they claim he is God, himself? That would mean that God didn't give up his only son to die on the cross, but he gave up himself, correct?

I know Jesus is part of the Holy Trinity, which makes up the Godhead. Thus, wouldn't be more correct to say "Jesus is part of the Godhead", rather than "Jesus is God"?

Man, I worked on that thing for days and now some of you guys don't believe it. Sheesh !

As for the creation thing itself, to be honest, it was an accident. Me and some of the guys were having some fun with some fireworks, trampoline and a bucket of chicken wings and well lets say there was beer involved and I woke up the next morning to find I'd created a universe. boy , was dad ticked off or what !

I'm hazy on the details cos it happened 6.5 billion years ago during my college years.

BTW where are you guys getting 6000 years from ????? I wish I was that young !!!

Anyway I'd created a universe and dad was like all "You created it, you look after it" so then I came up with the evolution idea ! It didn't always work out as planned though, I mean those dinosaurs ! What was I thinking ???? And don't get me started on Kent Hovind..... i didn't think he'd evolve ( or not as it seems)

Anyway I off to watch Scrubs. Bye.

Some of the brides are under age girls.
The man's name is Warren Jeffs and he is the leader of a religious cult in the US, with 10,000 followers, all of whom consider him a prophet.
His followers can only marry with his permission and he often sleeps with the bride first.
The FBI are after him, but his followers are hiding him.
Now you know why thinking people consider religious people as nut cases.

So if you don't believe in the Bible and you've got your own thing going on, where did the theory of evolution come from? Even if we all evolved from fish with arms, who made the fish? If man and all his science can't create life itself from nothing, then who can? And I don't want to hear any scientology mumbo-jumbo. :)

If islamic extremists are waging war for "holy" purposes, let them explain what is holy about their purpose?

Hint for "holy": sacred, blessed, sanctified, hallowed, venerable, revered; devout, pious, believing, chaste, moral, spiritual;

Antonym: evil, sinful, wicked.

I have understood that it means pedophile, NOT homosexual.
Please give me a source, thanks.

It's true and clearly explained in a new book titled THE PROJECT. If you'd like to know how this could be, go to www.iuninverse.com and type in the author's name, James Joseph, and you'll be able to read the first chapter for free. The story starts off sounding like sci-fi, but that's not what it is. It's the most comprehensive story of creation you'll ever read.

7 Now when the thousand years have expired, Satan will be released from his prison 8 and will go out to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle, whose number is as the sand of the sea. 9 They went up on the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city. And fire came down from God out of heaven and devoured them.

Revelation 20:7-9 (New King James Version)

This is New Testement, as you know, Christians on yahoo answers have taught us that we aren't under the Old Testement any more because of Jesus.

It clearly is stating here that the Earth has four corners. Why?

Have a wonderful day each of you!

How can both of these doctrines be based on the same infallible non-contradicting bible? Which doctrine is the truth from God and which is a lie from Satan?

Employers are required to accommodate people’s religious beliefs even if this means exempting them from generally applicable, neutral rules in the workplace.

Religious believers enjoy a broad array of special rights and privileges unavailable to others who may want exemptions for non-religious reasons

for e.g:

Former President, WASHINGTON, GEORGE, in Maxims of George Washington by A. A. Appleton & Co.

"They (the Jews) work more effectively against us, than the enemy's armies. They are a hundred times more dangerous to our liberties and the great cause we are engaged in... It is much to be lamented that each state, long ago, has not hunted them down as pest to society and the greatest enemies we have to the happiness of America."

Benjamin Franklin: "If you do not exclude them, in less than 200 years our descendants will be working in the fields to furnish them substance, while they will be in the counting houses rubbing their hands. I warn you, gentlemen, if you do not exclude Jews for all time, your children will curse you in your graves."

HENRY FORD in (The Dearborn Independent, 12-19 February 1921: The motion picture influence of the United States and Canada... is exclusively under the control, moral and financial, of the Jewish manipulators of the public mind."
