A raven is usually represents death.

BUT---
It can mean that the Raven is your spirit guide...
I wouldn't see it as evil..unless it truly makes you uncomfortable..

Other than that, be thankful you have an animal totem that actually FOLLOWS you...thats amazing to me.

I have a bible in front of me and I was reading the first parts of genesis. In this version, it reads, "God created humankind in his image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them" Genesis 1:27
But then it goes on, and there is a little note in between that says, "Another account of the creation" and then it goes on about the story of Adam and Eve.
So, christians, are both of these stories true, or just one of them? If the first account is true, then it certainly explains the sudden existence of Cain's wives.
Please explain.....Which version of the bible am I reading? Or am I reading a compiled bible with all the versions?

Cannibus, mushrooms, LED, peyote, and many other substances have been used in the past to aid in spirituality.

Do you think someone who claims to have had a spiritual experence while using one of these substances has had a valid spiritual exprence? Why or why not?

We all go through hard times or even times of a near miss death experience. I have survived 3 of them encluding a semi truck accident. Do any of you have an experience where you KNEW you were not alone?

My a-few-times-great-grandfather and his brother owned slaves and were members of the KKK (obviously not at the same time). I just wonder if I should feel guilty about something my ancestors did. Should I be punished for their actions?
If not, then why am I (and everyone else in the world) being supposedly punished for what Adam and Eve did? Would a loving person punish children for something the parents did? Please explain this to me.

There is no hope for humanity, very low likelihood of us discovering helpful extraterrestrials, and a very low likelihood of modern man evolving into something better before he kills himself.

Just what the hell am I to look forward to?

I just read an article that said the Roman Catholic Church is going to be the kingdom where the Anti-Christ is going to come from. A kingdom with many kings. It also said the 8th pope is going to be the Anti-Christ.
The article also said that Sunday is Satan's day. So going to church on Sunday, people are honoring Satan. According to the Bible, the Sabbith day is Saturday. God made everything in 6 days, and He rested on the 7th. The sabbith day became Sunday because the days of the week were changed to worship the sun. Sunday-the sun. Satan-light bearer. Sunday-sun-Satan-light bearer.

What are your thoughts on this?

There is nothing in the Bible I can find that says that. Anyone know what Daniel A: Zionist Pig is referring to? The version of the Bible I have tells us that the ark came to rest in the mountains of Ararat. Nothing I see tells us he lived there nor anchored the ark. I just want to make sure we all provide correct information.

From: Daniel A: Zionist Pig

Subject: Adam and Eve

Message: Noah anchored the ark to the ground. Not only for stability in high waves, but he probably realized that if he didn't anchor the ark somehow he might end up in the middle of the sea when the waters receded and never know it. Even if he did see land, the ark had no propulsion system so he would have had no means of getting back to shore.

It's beautifully simple and logical isn't it? I think you'll find the Bible is cool that way.

So, in the bible, Gambling or "Games of chance" is a sin.

So, why do many churchs hold Bingo nights? And offer cash, or other types of prizes! Bingo isn't anymore differnt that "gambling" as it is a game of chance. (If anyone says its not..you need help)

So, my question to you, is why is BINGO allowed by God, but stractch cards, card games and slot machines are sinful?

I'm just curious...

Were humans resistant to the DNA mutating effects of the suns radiation prior to sin, or did eden sheild them from the UV rays, or did god alter the sun itself to make it emit the harmful rays after he threw them out of paradise?

I think mutation and skin cancer are such clever punishments for sin... I'm just wondering how god came up with all these unique ways to make us pay for our badness.
