I know in Mahayana and Vajrayana, females are allowed to be ordained, but I heard not in the Theravada tradition. Is it true?

What is supposed to happen when he/she/it shows up? Probably an easy question for people who've read the bible but I don't so please tell me (sarcasm not needed).

And got a bunch of Philistines to follow him to hell? THe Bible says Jesus decended to hell, right? Doesn't it stand to reason that he stayed there?

If you could be a good person in this physical life and at the same time not believe in a God , why should we be killed for this?

A friend of mine gave me food for thought yesterday when she posed a question.
No matter how evil man is,when that person gets to heaven they MUST become pure again.If they did not then God himself would have failed because God is pure.Could this be possible and therefore where does Hell and redemption fit into this?

I'm going back to work tomorrow- good riddance, anyone- but I'd still like to go out with a bang instead of this fizzle. Can you people help me come up with a really good question to ask before I go?

The vast majority of Americans believe that God exists, that Jesus is his son, and that God himself gave us the Bible and the Ten Commandments. In fact, Supreme court Justice Antonin Scalia has said that "Ninety-nine percent of Americans believe in the ten commandments." He has also said, "What the commandments stand for is the direction of human affairs by God."

If 99% of Americans believe in the ten commandments, how can the Bible be repulsive? Let's take the fourth commandment as an example. It says:

Remember the sabbath day, and keep it holy. For six days you shall labour and do all your work. But the seventh day is a sabbath to the Lord your God; you shall not do any work—you, your son or your daughter, your male or female slave, your livestock, or the alien resident in your towns. [Exodus 20: 8-9]
This, supposedly, is the word of God, the almighty ruler of the universe.
Now think about this. Wal-mart is open on the Sabbath. And so is Target.

Out of all the different Christian faiths, which faith takes the lead in evangelizing? Baptists? Lutherans? Methodists? Episcopalians? Catholics? Orthodox? Salvation Army? Other?

I'm not looking for opinions, but for facts.

My middle son shoved a yellow m&m up his when he was 3. It melted, and when he blew his nose, he blew chocolate!

Oh, I still get a laugh out of that.

What did your kid do?

I've sat for hours searching the net, using every relevent search term I could think of and I cannot get the facts on what life was like for a novice/nun in Catholic Ireland in the 50s and 60s. Does anyone know of a reliable link I could go to? It's really important to me.

Do you have any recomended sites that will allow a family or individual to adopt a needy family or child for christmas online?

I am looking for sites ONLINE because some do not have the local sources as one might have in a large city.

I am looking for something more personal than just a cash donation to a charity.

Or is it the opposite? Like the sun rises to the east, sets in the west? Like positive and negative terminals, like good and bad, right and wrong, strong and weak?

Act 16:31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.

If I understand this scripture , If I believe, then my wife and children will be saved by my belief. And if anyone else wants to be saved, all they have to do is move into my house.

Is this correct?
