When a man sells his daughter as a slave, she will not be freed at the end of six years as the men are. If she does not please the man who bought her, he may allow her to be bought back again. But he is not allowed to sell her to foreigners, since he is the one who broke the contract with her. And if the slave girl's owner arranges for her to marry his son, he may no longer treat her as a slave girl, but he must treat her as his daughter. If he himself marries her and then takes another wife, he may not reduce her food or clothing or fail to sleep with her as his wife. If he fails in any of these three ways, she may leave as a free woman without making any payment. (Exodus 21:7-11 NLT)

Come on you Bible bashers, show me once verse in the Quran which degrades woman similiar to those seen in the Bible or commands you to rape, and take woman and little girls as sex slaves?

God must be one hunky stud with washboard abs, a large unit, and perfect hair. It says right in the Bible that God created man in his own image, and I am the perfect man. Now, the real question is, which one of you cupcakes wants to come to my place, rub my feet, cook me a pizza, do my dishes, and ride me like a mechanical bull?

I promise to give you cab fare in the morning, IF you do everything to my satisfaction. How about it ladies? The line forms to the left.

They also deported 20000 other Muslims while many others starved to death in the first concentration camps seen in Western Europe since those set up by Christian Germany 50 years earlier. Do the films of the christian ministers blessing the troops before they went in to do the killing make you want to shout praises to Jesus?

I think we should stop all responses to blasphemous questions altogether. There are so many people that ridicule God, Jesus and the Church. They are clearly from their father-the devil. I think we should only ask and respond to questions that have serious questions and delete those that don't. I am tired of throwing my pearls to swine. They want to live a life in riducule to God, let them. And let them recieve the justice they invoke on themselves. Let's promise no longer to answer their blasphemous questions and let God deal with them. God bless all the wonderful Christians who earnestly have answered so many questions.

I mean you believe in one flavor of magic pixie, but you make sure that your children are taught the truth about Santa Claus. Isn't that kind of hypocritical?
You also talk about "spirits" and other such superstitious nonsense. What childish ideas you all have.
The fact is, there is NO god. Not one person in the history of history, has been able to provide ONE shred of evidence to support the existence of this sky-pixie. Not one.
The next person do do so will be the first.
(and for your information, no, quoting an outdated and irrelevant book of bronze-age jewish mythology or puerile platitudes do NOT count as proof. Just so you know...)

that isn't justice. Why would a Loving God sacrifice anyone instead of just forgiving?
why cant He just forgive us if we are sorry? why does someone need to die?

By Adam's sin (Genesis 3), death spread to all mankind: Genesi 5:3 with 1:24, 25; Psalms 51:5; Romans 5:12, 14).
None is born without the mark of sin upon his soul; "all have sinned." (2 Chronicles 6:36; Isaiah 53:6; Romans 3:10, 12, 23; 5:12, 14; 11:32; Ephesians 2:3; 1 John 1;10)


Islam rejects the doctrine of original sin.

"Whoever goes aright, for his own soul he goes aright; and whoever goes astray, to his own detriment he goes astray. And no bearer of a burden bears another's burden..." (Koran 53:38)

"So whoever does an atom's weight of good will se it and whoever does an atom's weight of evil will see it." (Koran 99:7, 8)

The Holy Qu'ran makes perfect sense.

So why is every person a born sinner, according to the Bible?

I would think all of that added weight would start sinking the ark. It wasn't like they were on it for a week.

Hmmm for a second there the story of Noah's Ark didn't make any sense. Imagine.

Thru reserch and study, Christianity was not the end all to be all religion. In fact Pagenisim, is older and can be traced much further back thru history, people were FORCED to give up the old religion with the invention of Chrisitanity.

Except their Biblical claim that God gave them that piece of land.
Actually, they took it by force from the Caananites,Hittites. They were not originted there. What if--the native Americans claim their land from you--which they can do much more reasonably. Why you American Whites don't move from where you came(Europe)?

I'm sorry for the IMPOSTER that has been asking questions in my name. I do forgive this impersonator.

I got a lovely email from someone on this site telling me that I should take this opportunity and allow Christ to speak to me through the experience of being the victim of an impersonator.

I know how it feels to have someone say vicious things with MY name on them! Things I would NEVER say! I fear I have offended many and set back the work of Christ in this place by proclaiming my beliefs in an offensive way. My SINCEREST APOLOGIES!

I LOVE YOU ALL! It's time I spent more time LOVING others into the KINGDOM and less time speaking for the GOD of MOSES and JESUS.

CHRISTIANS: Will you HELP ME to keep my questions and answers IN LOVE?

JESUS LOVES YOU ALL! Don't forsake JESUS because of the words that I HAVE SAID.

Dearest Love,
Mrs. Paige

Wow, the answers to my last question are just what I expected. So many people don't address the question, they just beat their chests like the angry monkies they are, without even knowing why. Tell me....why is it OK for them to lie and decieve us? Why don't you hypocrites look in the mirror before you call me a hypocrite? Why do you smell so funny?

There are good and bad people of all races and religions. there are alot of generally peace loving and friendly people from all races. My question is primarily to those who make an effort to insult African Americans on Yahoo answers. African people created mathematics, astronomy, masonry, monotheism, irrigation, medicine and many other things including civilization itself! Is the truth that you must keep African Americans down to keep yourselves up?
