I know many people believe that the creative days in Genesis were each 24 hours long. However is there an example in the writings of Moses in which he uses the exact same word and it is clear that he meant "an indefinite period of time." This definition of "day" is often used in our modern vocabulary, but how long has it been used in this way?

And then insist that Christianity consists solely of fringe groups like fundamentalists,no Eastern Orthodox Church,no RCC,no Episcopalians,no Lutherans. But whenever you ask them a question they start yabbling about how diverse and umbrella-like so-called paganism is. For one thing,if that were true,how would they keep it all straight when they can't even tell a Unitarian from a Jehovah's Witness?

Human beings have 4 blood types; A, B, AB and O. There is one other but that one is so small and isolated that it doesn't matter.
Now, primates have (so far) three blood types; A, B and AB.
Here is the scientific info;

Abstract

The ABO blood groups were determined in blood and saliva collected from 40 Aotus infulatus, 74 Saimiri sciureus, and 96 Cebus apella from the Amazonian region along the Tocantins river. Saliva samples were tested for human ABH antigens by a standard hemagglutination inhibition test. Aotus infulatus showed monomorphism, exhibiting only the B blood group. Saimiri sciureus exhibited the A (67) and AB (7) phenotypes.

when you try to bring up certain sections, then they say 'Oh we don't need to follow those.'?
Where in the bible does it say you can pick and choose which parts you get to follow?

Why would he? He's not showing much concern for other happenings in this world. He doesn't appear to care about AIDS, starving children, the homeless, the sick, the poor, the oppressed. In fact, he doesn't seem to care about much of anything.

I fail to see why masturbation would even interest him.

If you believe stereotypes are wrong, and are willing to point fingers at others over this, then why do you support a church that refuses to accept that a woman can be a Priest or a Pope?

How do you avoid the charge of hypocrisy if you deem one form of stereotype is wrong while the other form of stereotype is right?

is the 20th CPS student to be shot to death. Is there no solution to gun violence? Is America too lenient when it comes to punishing criminals? Do we really have the right to bear arms? What do we do with about gun violence, or is it just a hopeless cause?

I consider myself an athesist, but I am intrigued as to how one person can influence so much faith, belief and almost command so much respect when somebody like him in modern society would be considered a deviant.

We are at war against a vicious, relentless and merciless enemy whose goal is world domination.

What's your plan following our surrender and withdrawl?

Do we just hope everything will turn up roses?

Was the plan all along to just criticize Bush and offer no solution? That's what it looks like to the rest of us.

The question is "What's your plan", what should Hillary or McCain do if they're elected to office?

Should we all just party hardy and let the rest of the world take up the slack like Spain did? I'm sure that's the troll position.

What about you. What do you think should happen after we waive the white flag?

Why does everyone deny it?

Before anyone comes up with the unoriginal rebuttal, I'll be quick to answer: no it isn't healthy. And people who do it still experience prostate problems later on in life.

Today's society is based on mass consumption, greed and the thought of "If it isn't fun, don't do it."

Why don't people stop for a moment and pose the following questions: "Why am I here? What is my role in life?"

I advise you to take a couple of seconds of your time and realize your position in life. Do you ever question yourself on these things or are you too brainwashed by society? I will leave this moment of reflexion to you and below, I will post some facts, including a passage from the very Bible.

i just want to hear any complaints you have about any subject. heres my complaint. Why dont they make metal sporks like the plastic ones you get at kfc. if i had metal sporks then i wouldnt need forks and spoons and i would have to worry about having enough of each. cause i always end up with more spoons than forks some how and i just think someone would make alot of money making metal sporks. also i think benny hinn is a bad person with all of his fancy cloths and fancy sets and rich looking friends telling me to send money to them so they can send some cheap *** toys to some third world country and keep all the rest of the money for personal profit.
