Religion & Spirituality - 27 February 2007

I was just wondering why I always see paintings or representations of Jesus as white. Is it because they are artists renderings not meant to be historically accurate? Are they supposed to represent the audience more then the actual form of Jesus? Or are there not any really good reasons?

Knowing that God does exist and created heaven and earth.
All the creatures upon the earth...everthing knowledgeable to man...WHY CONTINUE TO BELIEVE IN THE LIES OF SATAN AND HIS DEMONS?

Read your Bible, join a Bible study group. There is an answer to every question about life you will ever need to know...

Personally, I pray for all of you reading this who continue to dispute the word of God...the words of Jesus.

You have left yourself open to a lot of unnecessary hurt...

Believe me, YOUR ARMS ARE TOO SMALL TO BOX WITH GOD! Let alone His ANNOITED.

Even if, I already knew that, this just reinforces those thoughts. Has anyone out there ever sustained a serious burn and thought of the pains of Hell?

Evolution even created the god idea! Yes it did! Well through evolution came man and through man's mind came the whole god story! Evolution is king. What do you think?

Hi
I'm doing an essay on the ethics of genetic engineering, and I'd like to mention the beliefs of different religions, so can someone tell me what the Christian view on it is, if possible using a relevant bible passage or words from the Pope. This would be REALLY useful, as I need to list sources.

I'd also like the Jewish view on GE from the Torah if possible.

For example, the Quran says "...and assuredly I will incite them and they will effect a CHANGE IN THE CREATION OF ALLAH..." This is Satan speaking so its probably not allowed...
I will be grateful for any replies
Thanks

I mean, come on Atheists, we can't keep treating religious people like we would treat a retarded little brother, chained to a wall in the basement. We are, after all, member of the same species.
