to me people should bless the living instead of the dead, but they curse you instead

And when I mean evidence, I mean actual, empirical evidence. Not random quotes from an outdated book of bronze-age jewish mythology. Saying things like "I heard of a guy who weighed dead people...ect" because that's not evidence, that's hearsay.
ACTUAL evidence that supports your claim that something called a soul actually exists.

My best friends has cancer and i would appreciate it if you guys would pray for her health and family. She is going to have to miss a lot of school and her family is very worried. I too am worried, however I know that Jesus is in control of her life and that He will do what is best for her. Thank you.

Lebanese Bridgette Gabriel leaves no doubt about the question. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-8fa9yKQeTY

Lebanon, before it became predominately Muslim, was the epicenter of the middle east. Once Muslims became the majority, that all ended.

when the most popular religious work includes ultra-violent passages. How is it justifiable? :

Deut. 20:10-17- When you march up to attack a city, make its people an offer of peace. If they accept and open their gates, all the people in it shall be subject to forced labor and shall work for you. If they refuse to make peace and they engage you in battle, lay siege to that city. When the Lord your God delivers it into your hand, put to the sword all the men in it. As for the women, the children, the livestock and everything else in the city, you may take these as plunder for yourselves. . . . This is how you are to treat all the cities that are at a distance from you and do not belong to the nations nearby. However, in the cities of the nations the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance, do not leave alive anything that breathes. Completely destroy them—the Hittites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites—as the Lord your God has commanded you.

I mean, really..

Lets say a child is born. Throughout his life he achieves many great things, finds cures for diseases, helps man kind. He has compassion for the poor, sick, and all who are in need of help. He loves and accepts absolutely everyone. His love is so tremendous that it is a force than can be felt by everyone.

He does not believe in Religion and Questions the Existence of God.

Surely, he will go to hell. Sad isn't it? Not only is it sad, but also, illogical.

Why don't we see each other as people? Why don't we realize that just because they may not have the same political views or religious views as we do, that they are people too? They have two legs, two arms, two hands - generally speaking. Their blood is red, like yours and mine. Why do we see them as 'the enemy' instead of seeing them as what they really are. A mother, or father. A son or a daughter. Different causes don't change the fact that we are all human. My religion teaches us to love one another. Why is that so hard? Why do we have such a hard time remembering the mortality of others? In a war we go and we kill - why? They are people too. Do we forget this? Why can't we set aside differences and see each other - really see each other?

Here's this guy that claims to be the son of god, and his followers claim he can walk on water, and turn water into wine....seems kinda fishy to me. You have Manson, Caresh, Jones, Muhammad, and last but no least, Jesus........and all of their lemmings.....

This is for all of you who believe it can not be proven that God exists, but anyone can answer (just to keep it fair AND fun!)

It was directed towards Christians and non Christians as well, to show you the works of The spirit you say does not exist. We speak all the same language world wide as one who is with Jesus Christ. That is the proof you ask for.
We know who has the spirit or not by the power of the Holy Ghost. I challenge you to, try to fool me, by pretending to post as a Christian. If you can fool me into thinking you are a Christian,if your not, and I select your answer as the best, then you could add details to prove me wrong, I will renounce Christianity!
Cause I know you can not,I am that sure because it is He who is in me, I do Have the Holy Ghost. If I am wrong and proven, then you prove to me that I live a lie. So if you can not, then you live the lie and the spirit testifies of itself.

Time is clearly the important issue with creationists. As special relativity completely does away with absolute time, do you believe in it? This is particularly important as over the short time span overwhich you believe the world has existed, relativistic effects in things like black holes has the potential to greatly distort time and hence put a large error on the age of the universe (if you can even say that without absolute time).

If a person lived to be 600 years old,, that's pretty big news isn't it?Then why wasn't Noah and all those "old-timers" listed in regular history books or how about Jesus?If Jesus performed all those miracles(and I believe He did)why weren't they mentioned in regular history books?It seems to me that there are two worlds:The Bible world and the regular world.Shouldn't they both be in alignment with each other?Shouldn't Moses, Abraham etc... be listed in regular history books?

If Jesus was a space alien, and his "Father" his ship's commander on a terra forming project, would the bible and floods and moving mountains make more sense?
