I've read he was not originally a demon, just a Hebrew word for 'filthy lucre, or riches'. But the name is mentioned by Jesus in the sermon of the mount as being the god of money. Where did it come from? From which old pagan religion?

Volume 1, Book 6, Number 301:

Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri:

Once Allah's Apostle went out to the Musalla (to offer the prayer) o 'Id-al-Adha or Al-Fitr prayer. Then he passed by the women and said, "O women! Give alms, as I have seen that the majority of the dwellers of Hell-fire were you (women)." They asked, "Why is it so, O Allah's Apostle ?" He replied, "You curse frequently and are ungrateful to your husbands. I have not seen anyone more deficient in intelligence and religion than you. A cautious sensible man could be led astray by some of you." The women asked, "O Allah's Apostle! What is deficient in our intelligence and religion?" He said, "Is not the evidence of two women equal to the witness of one man?" They replied in the affirmative. He said, "This is the deficiency in her intelligence. Isn't it true that a woman can neither pray nor fast during her menses?" The women replied in the affirmative. He said, "This is the deficiency in her religion."

First off, I'm a Catholic seminarian (future priest), and my question is mainly for other Christians.
I noticed that a lot of people here answer questions about science, evolution, Big Bang and such and such by quoting from the bible. My question is this: how can you use the bible as a science book, when there are so many contradictions in it? For example, there are two explanations of how the earth and man was created, so which one should we believe? And how can it be that the Jews in Babylon knew how the universe began?

Just hypothetically, if you found out you were going to die of natural causes, and your last thing you could communicate with Earth was the answer to this question, what would you say?

jim darwin's final "answer"
---------------------------------
To those I love: You are why I stayed alive and happy, do not miss me, just remember every treasured moment.

To my son: The smart gene is good to have on tests but don't let it interfer with friendships.

You are loved by me now and forever.

Abortions: So you think your saving a life? Do you think your doing something good? Not all people who get abortions are sluts... Most of the time they spend there last dime on it so there child wouldn't have to suffer... Most children who are adopted are abused and treated horribly. But you don't care do you?

Gay marriage: Explain to me why this matters so much to you... you can't let people live happy lives? Did it ever hurt you? Does other peoples happiness not matter to you? How would you like it if I became president and tried to take away straight marriage? (not possible but a what if...)

Stem Cells: Why would you be against this of all things? They don't have to use fetuses they can use umbilical cords as well... Would you really take someones who IS born life away just for the cost of one that hasn't started? I know it may seem barbaric. If you had a chance to save someones life before you were born would you take it?

answer these questions with out using the bible

I post thoughtful questions and i get people saying that i am not a christain!! Doesn't it say in the bible not to judge one another? I'm just saying, i find it very hypocritical. Most these people are the pastors that tell me no to Judge one another and they judge me, just because i am thoughtful.

“Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance”
- Confucius -

Think about how much we do not know, compared to what we do know. When it comes right down to it we do not understand this world at all...

Thank you for your thoughts...

Turkish picture of Islamic Jinn: http://www.yenisafak.com.tr/arsiv/2005/subat/01/tarih.html

I have told Muslims, with all seriousness, that if I can find a real Genie (Jinn) as the Quran claims to be visible and in existance on earth, I will convert to Islam and stop my online query.

So my quest continues. I found this photo and am in the process of authentication....if this ET-plastic creature is actually a Jinn, then Im in...although as Ive said many times...I will loathe being separated from the opposite sex as is the requirement of Islam.

Quran 15:27 “And the Jinn race, We had created before, from the fire of a scorching wind.” http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/quran/015.qmt.html#015.027

Quran 72:01 "Say: It has been revealed to me that a company of Jinns listened (to the Qur'an). They said, 'We have really heard a wonderful Recital! "http://www.usc.edu/dept/msa/quran/0...

What are your specific views on beings from other solar systems? Because on the one hand, you'd think Atheists would believe that the universe is too big for just us, but on the other, Atheists usually won't believe in something until they see proof.

In Genesis 1:26, God grants Adam and Eve "dominion" over the earth. Other translations use "rule." What does this mean to you and what does it suggest about our relationship to the environment?

be careful what you ask Jesus for-the children of Israel many wanted more than manna from heaven till they got to Israel-God gave it and slew 23,000 for going against his will.

peace to you and prayers too-david in His amazing grace
