IF YES, SO DOES JESUS

Luke 12

[Jesus says:]

49"I have come to bring fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled! 50But I have a baptism to undergo, and how distressed I am until it is completed! 51Do you think I came to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, but division. 52From now on there will be five in one family divided against each other, three against two and two against three. 53They will be divided, father against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law."

I had no idea until 10 minutes ago that there was such a thing. there is research going on now to make one.


Hung-Ching Liu the director of the Reproductive Endocrine Laboratory at Cornell University’s Center for Reproductive Medicine and Infertility in Manhattan, has become, almost accidentally, the nation’s premier womb-maker. Beginning in 2001, her lab started growing sheets of human tissue composed of cells from the endometrium, the lining of the uterus.“We’d hoped the embryos would implant on this tissue,” Liu says, “so we could learn more about the mechanisms of implantation. But they could not.” The growing embryos would break through the tissue, smack against the petri dish and, like a tree whose roots hit rock, die.

-- you can more easily accept those who profess some kind of religion -- even if it's paganism or satanism -- than those who don't believe in a god at all?

I am confused. I wasnt born in to christianity but it was forced upon me later as a very young kid. My parents are deeply faithful although they haven't always been the best examples of christians. Thinking back on it i never really did "feel" like a christian,"saved" or whatever you want to call it. The only sure thing i could remember is the terrifying fear of going to hell if i didnt believe. But i always felt like i was pretending to believe to please my parents. Now that I'm an adult, as i learn more about the world my opinions and values continue to change. So here is my current belief system in a nutshell:
Jesus- just another man, no special powers
God- if there is one then she or he doesnt care about humans, or there wouldn't be the suffering and death of the innocent in this world.
Religion- I'm not anti-religion, i believe that religious people should leave others alone to believe what they wish. Religion is responsible for more death than any war or disease-this is a fact

Surely then any fantasy books should be banned since they are telling people things that aren't true, often making up new creatures and telling of elves and gnomes and suchlike, talk about powers of evil...

has been the fact that all parts of such organs have to work together for sight, hearing or thinking to take place. Such organs would have been useless until all the individual parts were completed. So the question arises: Could the undirected element of chance that is thought to be a driving force of evolution have brought all these parts together at the right time to produce such elaborate mechanisms?

I was told it wasn't a question. The question I posed was:

"If posting scripture plants a seed does that mean if I post parts of the Al Jilwah or other Satanic Holy text that I can "plant seeds", too so that the Dark Lord, Satan, can fill people with his holy enlightenment?"

That is a religious question, right? I was simply asking that if it was okay for Christians to post scripture to convert others, would it be okay for other religious paths, including Satanism, to do the same if they so chose. It seemed legitimate to me.

in christianity i've been taught that already happened. in tha jewish faith i've heard tho that there r so many events that must take place b4 his coming. i don't mean his return i mean tha messiah's first coming. i repeat that becuz when i first asked this with a diff explanation, oy, ppl thought i meant tha return. i've heard that tha jewish faith does not preach tha way tha christians do. like they don't preach one sin is greater than another becuz sin is sin. no sin is greater than another. i realize that it's not normal fer a christian, well i'm a christ follower (there is a diff), to convert to judaism but i don't wanna worship a messiah that isn't legit that would be i think tha word fer crazy in hebrew is meshuganah? oy, if i convert, thank God i'll only need a barmitzfah. i was already circumsized. oy, don't need to have anotha.

and I knew the only certain escape route, would it be wrong for me to get myself out without telling you the way?
*This question is particularly directed to non-Christians, who say they don't understand why Christians "preach" at them. Because, to us, the analogy is accurate.

How people throng for prayer meetings and conventions looking for miracles.The organizers cheat people by creating situations to make them believe that miracles are taking place.They sing,dance ,give witness etc.Some of these are prearranged.what happens there is nothing but faith healing.If one has faith in oneself he can cure himself because our body has the system to cure itself.what is required is faith in onself.
I just wonder how long this exploitation of the gullible will go on...

I want everything you have on this. Does it have any tangible properties? How do we proclaim humans to be the only animals with one? What happens to the soul in identical twins (Remember they do not actually separate until several days after conception)? From where does the soul originate?


I will give my answers on this shortly, but first I would like to see what you have to say.

the reason why i ask this is because of something that somebody said about agnostics in my last question/ so do you generally like us? do you dislike us? do you downright hate us? are you frustrated with us because we don't become christians? do you hate us because we don't become christians? do you dislike or hate us because some of us were christians and left the faith? so what's up i'm just curios that's all. as you all know by my screen name i am agnostic you can be truthful with me i would appreciate it. or if you don't dislike or hate all agnostics is it that you dislike or hate me?

i've been thinkin bout this alot lately. and i know it's normally a jew to converts to christianity, but i'm a christ follower not a christian, i don't believe sum of tha stuff tha christians preach. like how sum sins r worse then others when no sin is worse then another. and how homosexuality is worse then heterosexuality. i've heard in tha jewish faith they recogonize homosexuality as a way of life am i right? tha reason i ask is i'm bi and i know i am and i know i didn't choose this. and i don't believe tha acting upon it is this sin crap anymore. basically i'm done lying to myself. lately i've been thinkin there's um truth to tha davinci code. and whut if jesus wasn't tha messiah? whut if jesus was jus a jewish prophet that got carried away? i'm confused i don't know whut to think i mean i saw tha passion of tha christ and tha nativity story and both stories as i read them in tha new testament seem really true but then again...i dunno. can u help me?

why Jewish denied Jesus the messiah, what's more evidence do they need to know? jewish knew Jesus since his birth, u know he is not a person who can lie.

and christians why denying the promise comforter (Muhammad) who will "speak" to the world and "testify" of Jesus, and teach people the commandments of God and Guide people toward the truth? do not believe what John said about the holyspirit. why would Jesus give the holyspirit another name? jesus didn't say it was the holyspirit. it's the promise Muhammad.

Im wondering about this question because it seems as though only Christians or people with faiths can become president. Atheists are looked upon by religious people as though they are worser than homosexuals. I personally dont think it is possible. What is your opinion?
