Israel belongs to the Jews. They were living in those lands thousands of years before anyone else showed up. They were dispersed around the world through wars. Everywhere they were persecuted and used as scapegoats. They were treated as "scum of the earth", and despite that, with their genius they proved to be the salt of the earth. They were massacred. They were wiped out from Islamic countries. Now they have come back to their own ancestral land. That is where they belong. They transformed this most forsaken land of God into a paradise. They made the desert bloom and now from that tiny arid land they produce enough food to feed the entire Arab world. They have technology and science that can benefit all their Arab neighbors. Israel is the only shining light in the middle of an ocean of darkness. The least the Muslims can do is to learn from their democracy. But the only thing they can think of is how to wipe Israel off the map.

That wet dream is not going to materialize. Israeli

The why do Christian's eat pig when the bible forbids it was an interesting question, but many of the Christian respondents stated that only the New Testament matters, yet I'm told right here in YA by Christian's that of course their faith includes both old and new T. The NT Christian's are a very difficult group to get along with; very pick and choose in their beliefs.

You know that moment when the light comes on... you've somehow figured out what the devine plan for your life is. Your purpose for existence, etc.

Deut. 18:18, 19 in the Old Testament-the act.
If this is Moses speaking then He is speaking of Jesus as a prophet(not a God) or If this is Jesus speaking then he is speaking of another Prophet thast will come after him.

Okay thanks. Lady was it you asked that one? Okay listen: I would have a surprize for Jesus. It so happens that I went and knelt at the Baptist preacher's altar and did the special incantation, whereby I can still sin and get into Heaven. Jesus has to honor the Baptist procedure because it's an arrangement they made with him. It's a guarantee.
Meanwhile, many thousands of righteous people who loved God, served God, and suffered and died in the Holocaust, are in Hell's eternal torment, cause theirs was a religion whose God is not Jesus; whereas I'll be in Heaven inspite of my wicked ways, cause I did the Baptist secret incantation. Isn't God great!

Disclaimer: If you're asking about Jesus Gomez, I know for a fact I won't see him at Heaven's door; he'll be in Hell. He's a Catholic.
He knows nothing of the Baptist church's special deals.

One thing is sure and that is Israelis do not turn the other cheek. In my book I said this is the only way Muslims should be treated. Bully understands force. He interprets your forgiveness and tolerance as your weakness and becomes bolder and more aggressive. Israel is doing the right thing to strike back and retaliate every time there is an attack on Israeli soil and Israelis are killed as the result. You might be in Palestine and suddenly a house or a car is bombed and a few Palestinians are killed. You immediately conclude that the Israelis are terrorists conducting terrorist acts with sophisticated weaponry and killing indiscriminately. What you miss is that this is a retaliatory action and it is done in response to what the Palestinians did a few days earlier. And those killed by Israel were not innocent people but involved in the terrorist campaign against Israel. Sometimes innocent people and even children are killed, but that is because these cowards hide behind the children a

Below is a verse from the Bible which says DO NOT EAT PIG:

"AND THE PIG, though it has a split hoof completely divided, does not chew the cud; it is unclean for you. YOU MUST NOT EAT THEIR MEAT OR TOUCH THEIR CARCASSES; THEY ARE UNCLEAN FOR YOU. (Leviticus 11:7-8)"

I get a lump in my throat evertime I read some person in defence of their religion or non religion. I am spiritual and Godly and raised as a Episcapalian. I fear that there is so much hate on both sides that no one listens to the possiblities of a world were all are free to believe in thier concepts without fear from others trying convert them to their way. I especially see a very large amount of hate from non believes towards believers. Why do we even have to call them Believers Non believers, that is so communist!

Does Jesus care about the Turkeys? Did he eat them or just fish? I do'nt think there were Turkeys in ancient Palestine but other birds.
Is God cruel, was the son of God cruel too? Why did Yahwe demand so many people to die whenever he shows up? Was Yahwe an alien astronaut? Why did he always arrive with smoke, flames and noise? Why could nobody see him except Moses who scortched his face by looking at him? Why did he order the murder of 600 rabbis for worshipping a little golden calf sculpture...and the annilatioion of the men of neighbouring countries and the women and kids taken into slavery? sounds more like Adolf Hitler than the God of the Jews, Christians and Moslems.

The Blind that recieve sight via Jesus
The deaf that get hearing via Jesus
The Lame that walk becuase of Christ
The Mute that talk thanks to Jesus Christ
People in comas the doctors said would die or be a vegaable at best(I happen to be one of those people),and are now healthy and happy thanks to Jesus
the dead;that were actually pronouced medically dead;and are now walking among the living thanks to Christ

Thees miracles still happen today;but the only people that recieve them are those with faith

Before you start whinin about those that are suffering

Did they pray to God(Jesus)to heal them.Not that desprate God help me,did they take time to pray for healing?

Did they follow God's commandments?

Are they praying to the correct(yes there's a right God)God?

Do they know about Jesus Christ?

Or do they sit on their butts and whine and moan about their problems?

Theese miracles still happen today;but only for those that have faith and honor God.Now,explanations?
