The best selling book of our time, the Bible. Though it has no one specific author, who ends up profiting from the royalties? I saw a book that was $42!!!!! That's outrageous! Where does that money go?

Why most of you pissed off when I tried to ask our Muslim Brothers and Sisters on how they convince us in order to lessen our prejudiced towards Islam?Is it time for us to be more open minded and accept other views?Remember Jesus said that we have to love one another,right?so what's the fuss?Asking about Islam doesn't mean I'm going to convert into it,all I want is their views and their explanations to be able to understand more of it.Peace!

and dont try to somehow bring the discussion back to people. a world without people is still a horrible place. i heard something like 1 out of 100 sea turtles make it to adulthood, so if you're born a sea turtle your life will most likely be; born, suffer for a few weeks, die painfully. how about a zebra being eaten alive by a lion? how indescribably painful would you imagine it is to be eaten alive? is the lion a sinner cuz he's hungry? whats his other option, starve? theres no way to justify this stupid planet, it should be obliterated.

When Catholics pray, they begin by saying, " Hail Mary, Mother of God, pray for our sins". When God created the world, Mary wasn't even born. .Doesn't Gods law state that you should not make unto thee any graven image or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above is in the earth. Thou shalt not bow thyself down to them. Yet there are statues of Mary almost everywhere you look. ( 1 Timothy 2:5) For there is only one mediator between God and man, the man Christ Jesus. No where can I find that you have to pray to Mary. If Mary is a mediator, why Christ?

A 63-year-old Dutch priest has confessed to making a hoax bomb threat in an attempt to stop a concert by US pop star Madonna, prosecutors say.

What is he really worried about? Does he have info we need to have? Is he really just a Pat Boone fan that sangry Madonna stole the billing?

If I tried to repent every time I felt lust, I'd be repenting ever second of the day!

Brothers and sisters, how can I get my needs fulfilled if I'm repenting all the time?

Personally, I prefer to just wait until Sunday to repent of all my sins.

if it was god - then the most loving being in existance created the most heinous place in existance - which seems a contradiction.

if it was satan then god did not create eveything as christins claim

ps does hell serve any purpose? wouldnt those there be better off not existing?
