assume the Bible WAS changed without looking into the facts?

You know burning some copies of the Koram when choosing the official book.

Or the thousands of ancient copies of the Bible from all over the world that are in harmony.

What are the signs, accourding to the bible, of the end of the world?? What happens after that?? Some one told me there are seven awful years on earth to all of those you are left here and in that time they must find Christ... is this true, if not what is?? Please don't tell me what YOU think will happen, only tell me what the bible does or does not say. thank you.

i am trying to figure out if i am being called to be a pastor. intellectually i am capable. i feel that i do a good job of fitting the call of 1 Timothy 3:1-7. i do not have sex, smoke, drink all because that is what i feel will appease God the most and what i feel Him calling me to do. i am a kind and caring person who has the heart to be a pastor but i would like to hear if there are any pastors or priests out there who could tell me how they knew they were supposed to be pastors/ priests. i was interested in being a priest as a young child and now i am a freshman in college and i'm trying to pick a major now and i'm having a difficult time. anyone who has words of encouragement or advice or wisdom to share with me about being a pastor please share. i will do whatever His will but right now i just need to understand or see what His will is.

Why do some people believe in santa claus and wild imaginings. and some other people Idealistic and doun to earth.and people keep on having to argue against them. Why do we have a different kind of appreciation for our existence.I think it was wrong for your parents to try to tell you santa claus is real when you were four years old. were you brainwashed into believing.

Our school is a catholic one and they pray or say quotes from the bible every day. Will I be punished if I don't pray together or at least try to act like i'm doing so.
This is seeing that they do not allow anyone to wear anything related to religion other than their belief.

I'm starting to think it's Islam, because I've asked a lot of questions about Islam recently (I'm reading about it, so I have some questions). I never noticed this much bashing of any other religion, even my own.

Yes God's power is unlimited. But do you know what the three things that God cannot do..... take time to reflect, and yes the answers are in the Bible.

I saw a church soliciting donations from its members and whoever that entered the church, is that allowed? They force you into donating by peer or crowd pressure. Do you give up the right to reject donations to the church once you enter their property or church.

Hey one of my questions got an answer that Palestine it made up of migrants from Egypt and Syria.

In Isaiah 19, there is a prophecy about peace between Israel, Assyria, and Egypt. They'll all worship the same God and speak the language of Canaan (the Egyptians are muslim, Israel is jewish, Assyrians are christian). God will call them "Egypt my people, Assyria my handiwork and Israel my inheritence".

Wouldn't that be awesome if that was the result of the whole Israel-Palestine conflict.

Hope so.

Peace in the Middle East.

I've heard some Pagans recently say they disagree with Raymond Buckland and Silver RavenWolf. I've heard quite a few people also say that Cabot is for show more than anything else. I really like Paganism but don't know who to start with. I got some really good advice about the "follow your own path" thing earlier, but I'd like some help getting started with serious practice.
I'm open to suggestions outside of Wicca, too.

I was out with my pastor and his wife this evening. There were other's from our church with us. On the way home my pastor's wife started a very racist conversation. Then another person chimed in. I didn't say anything at the time, but it upset me so much. I'm wondering how I should handle this. I don't know if I can keep going to church there now? How should I handle this?

It was extremely eerie to suddenly be surrounded by a completely silent darkness. Has this ever happened to you? Did you drag out the old Ouija board and mess with your friends? Tell stories and send me some s'mores.

Why doesn't the official Pope come to Yahoo answers to change and enlighten people. We surely could use some help there.

My science teacher told me that no one can rise from the dead and told us that jerus resurrected was false. Is my science teacher true about this or was she just lying through her teeth?

If you don't believe in God, were you raised faithless,rejected faith because of being hurt, or just don't want to submit to anyone in authority bigger than yourself? I would like to know how you decided to reject God and why. Thanks for real answers to a real question.

I was just wondering, because it seems I am allowed to treat the Koran and Muslim tradition just as Muslims treat the Bible and Catholic Tradition, right?

The second question is the more important one...

It's true, we are the Caretakers of Society, the mediators, the comforters. Why do you think we make you beautiful as makeup artist, show you passion and live in our dance in musicals, comfort you while your on an airplane, talk to you in customer service jobs to make you happy, we comfort the str8 people, care for them as male nurses, help you when you come to a hotel we check you in and make sure you are comfortable, how dare you condemn us. God mad to be you caretakers and you treat us like crap. God forgive you for your ignorance.
