hear me out, im talking about a virgin giving birth or a guy building an ark with every single animal on it which we could not even do today. maybe if virgins actually gave birth once in a while then sure i wouldnt have a problem believing these stories but most things are just ridiculous. im sure mathmatically noah doing this would be a 1/500000000 chance and people are supposed to believe it happened just like that

It just seems as though he favors and protects evil people. I am just so beaten tired of serving him... of being left behind... ignored by him... all he wants to do is give me more lessons... "homework"... "educational experiences"... trauma... meanwhile the people who don't serve him sail gently right on with no problems in their lives... want to keep serving, but at a loss, don't know what to do... (I am Jewish but will accept Christian, Muslim and new age answers)

I just learned there are several Satanist sects in my neighborhood. I live in the Hollywood Hills of California. My neighbor found Upside down pentagrams, live stock heads, feathers, black candles, etc behind his home in the Canyon. After researching this I found there are sects holding down low meetings all around me. Many people have been noted as missing as well as animals, etc.

Quran 8:67 PICKTHAL: It is not for any prophet to have captives until he hath made slaughter in the land. Ye desire the lure of this world and Allah desireth (for you) the Hereafter, and Allah is Mighty, Wise. http://cwis.usc.edu/dept/MSA/quran/008.qmt.html

This chapter in the Quran is titled "Spoils or War / Booty". Why Allah would want to write about such a subject, I dont know, but the focuse here is verse 67 right at the begining where it says "its is not for ANY PROPHET to have...".

Islam claims Muhammad is the last Prophet. Allah will give us no more final prophets, even though he keeps giving us final prophets. According to Islam, this is finally it, Muhammad is the final of the final.

BUT WAIT, right here in the final prophets final book, it says "It is not for ANY PROPHET to have captives"? WHAT PROPHETS? I THOUGHT MUHAMMAD WAS THE LAST ONE, SO THE FINAL BOOK NEED NOT ADDRESS ANY FUTURE PROPHETS, AS THE QURAN DOES HERE!!!!!

What classifies something as a religion?

2006-12-06 13:39:51 · 5 answers · asked by B C 2

I am a teacher and am aware of a student who fasts every month for 3 days straight. I think this student also fasts every Monday and Wednesday. This student is 13 years old and the fasting seems to affect her performance in school. The student informed me that this was a normal part of her religious observance. The student lives with a family member who is very observant in the Judeo-Christian religion. I would like to know if this degree of fasting is "normal" for her religion and whether she would be considered old enough within the belief structure of the religion to make such a decision. I am concerned that this fasting may be a result of influence by this family member rather than an individual choice by the child.

If you go out and drive fast and drink probably your going to have an accident, Then they say God took him it was his time.
Someone starts and war and blows each other up? Is that God's fault? Is it God's fault if you use tobacco and die of cancer with all the warnings out there? when is it man's fault?
