Things like god created plants before the sun. Thats not logical, they would have died. And obviously noah didnt make a big ark and the world wasnt flooded. And obviously a virgin couldnt be pregnant 2000 years ago.

The Catholic Church says it is opposed to the penalty of death and yet it is approved of in the Chatichism. If it really opposed this it would have eliminated it as an option from the Chatichism. It just seems to me that it wants it to be "rare but legal" to use language from other sourses. Seems kind of devious to me....

Since he "brought people back from the dead" how do we know he didn't just give them the "breath of life"? Tongue-in-cheek, yet interesting. This one is courtesy my hubby.

•Darwinian evolution is inherently a racist philosophy, teaching that different groups or races evolved at different times and rates, so some groups are more like their ape-like ancestors than others.[14]

• Before Darwinian evolution was popularized, when most people talked about "races," they were referring to such groups as the "English race," "Irish race," etc.[14]

• Robert N. Proctor (Racial Hygiene: Medicine Under the Nazis [1988]) observed: "Prior to Darwin, it was difficult to argue against the Judeo-Christian conception of the unity of man, based on the single creation of Adam and Eve. Darwin 's theory suggested that humans had evolved over hundreds of thousands, even millions of years, and that the races of men had diverged while adapting to the particularities of local conditions. The impact of Darwin's theory was enormous."[17]

• Darwin spoke of the "gorilla" and the "*****" [sic] as occupying evolutionary positions between the "Baboon" and the "civilized races of man" ("Caucasian"); viz: At some future period, not very distant as measured by centuries, the civilized races of man will almost certainly exterminate, and replace, the savage races throughout the world. At the same time, the anthropomorphous apes ... will no doubt be exterminated. The break between man and his nearest allies will then be wider, for it will intervene between man in a more civilized state, as we may hope, even than the Caucasian, and some ape as low as a baboon, instead of as now between the ***** [sic] or Australian and the gorilla.[49, 3]

• Despite his hatred of slavery, Darwin's writings reek with all kinds of contempt for "primitive" people.[17]

• Thomas Huxley wrote: "No rational man, cognizant of the facts, believes that the average ***** (sic) is the equal, still less the superior, of the white man. And if this be true, it is simply incredible that, when all his disabilities are removed, and our prognathous relative has a fair field and no favor, as well as no oppressor, he will be able to compete successively with his bigger-brained and smaller-jawed rival, in a contest which is to be carried on by thoughts and not by bites." (Lay Sermons, Addresses, and Reviews, 1871)[17]

•Many of the early evolutionists were outspoken racists, and racial inferiority views were assumed to be proven, and thus were less a subject of debate or concern than one today would assume

• H. Klaatsch, a prominent German evolutionist, concluded that human races differ not only because of survival factors, but also for the reason that they evolved from different primates. The Blacks came from the gorillas, the Whites from the chimpanzees, and the Orientals from the orangutans, and it is for this reason that some races are superior. He concluded that "the gorilla and the Neanderthal man" have a close biological affinity to "a large number of the living African blacks

I had a very close family member that died a few weeks ago. We chose to have them embalmed instead of cremated. When we viewed the body they looked as if they were smiling. Do the funeral directors make the person look this way or what. Please give me some honest answers to set my mind at ease. Seeing that way made me feel alot better about the afterlife. But I just wonder do some people smile or not when they die......

There is a verse in the Quran that defines people who are eligible to receive charity money (Zakat). Among them are people who newly embrace Islam. We can not say that that charity money is required to help them live after they have left their properties because if they really left their properties and became poor they would be already eligible under another category (poor people) and no need for a specific category for them.

History tells that prophet Muhammed used to give charity money to tribe leaders to persuade them embracing Islam.

Is that considered as a BRIBE to encourage people to embrace Islam?

My bro was watching this show, he said that it said it was a true story (said at the start it was apparently and it was on the discovery channel), and it was about this lady who was possesed by a demon.

She would threaten people, speak in a "demonic" voice and all this other stuff. She would also usually black out when this stuff happened and wouldn't remember it.

So they got a priest in to perform an excorcism, of course she started having a fit like thing - and apparently the chair levitated right before the demon left.

I laughed the whole time i was watching it, its just ridiculous. They would drink holy water to try and get rid of the demon etc.

What do you all think of this?
