Some insect species undergo various transformations in different phases of their lives. For instance, this small caterpillar will soon draw back to its cocoon after deriving energy feeding on leaves, and undergo a series of transformations. When it gets out of its cocoon, it will be a bright colored butterfly able to fly. This process called metamorphosis is an example of design which evolution can never explain. This is because such a progressive and complex process can in no way be explained by coincidences.

Even a single mistake in a single stage of
metamorphosis would cause the animal to die. This perfectly designed process is an apparent evidence of creation.

I don't know why is the obsession of bringing verses from the bible trying to misinterpret it!

Please use your time reading others books if you don't think is God's word!

If I were Atheist, I would not pay attention to the bible!

However, I believe that the Bible is the word of God!

ah let me *drink* auhh thanks

In America, churches must take donations from parishioners, and have bake sales, and things like that. I was told that Europeans didn't understand why we had to do that in America, and that in Europe, the government gives money to the churches.

One of my professors who visited Europe said the churches were big and expensive, but there may only be a handful of people go! Whereas here, if there were only a handful of people going to the church, the church would have to be small and simple, because they couldn't afford a big church.

Is this true?

Why do people who aren't interested in the occult, ALWAYS assume that witchcraft has shades of only black and white?

Seeing as this is the case in nothing including witchcraft, it always annoys me. Seeing that to be purely white, it would have to be completely selfless, and to do whats known as black magick is something as simple as it being selfish. To me it shows there is no white magick, only varying shades of Gray to black.

Any other views on this?

I was recently hurt by this guy and I am really angry. I am a christian and I am battling heavily with the devil because I want this guy to pay for what he did. He slept with me under the pretense that we were together and then in the middle of the act hhe got really rough (sexually) and I told him to stop. When he did he was like I have to go. and then he said he and the mother of his child are really trying to work things out and he has no feelings for me and its not his fault I have feelings for him. He said he bet if he ask me to go at it again I would because I'm weak when it comes to him. Then he was like lets do it again and I was like hell no and he was like wow you stronger than I thought. After that night I sat down and plotted his murder. I was going to kill him. I walked with my weapon every day but I never saw him. Meanwhile I was praying for deliverance because I didn't want to go to jail (I am a single mother so my child would have suffered the most). Finally STAY TUNED!

Don't say "life after death;" the phrase is oxymoronic and meaningless as well as non-biblical.

"Immortal soul" is not biblical. Egyptian religions, on which Judaism and Christianity are largely based, taught that the afterlife required food and drink buried with the mummy, since body and soul were transcended by the "khu," which had characteristics of both body and soul but had potential to transform into an Osiris (c.f. "the likeness of Christ").

Are there theologians who emphasize the adjective "eternal" while conceding that "life" refers to life in the here and now of reality? In that reading of the phrase, the point may be that the life you are living right now is to have the characteristics implied by the adjective "eternal." Who are the theologians who are putting this concept forward?

The phrase "post mortem" survival of the ego" is more precise than "eternal life" etc., however it seems regrettable to have to lean on Latin etc. instead of clear English.

Serious question. Their opinion of interpretation of scripture may be that homosexuality is a sin.

However, do they not realize that the only ultimate authority on scripture is God. Do they believe themselves to be God when pronouncing judgement on others', based on their opinion of interpretation?

And why do they single out homosexuality when pretending to be God, and interpreting the Bible literally? The literal interpretation of the Bible also states that the divorced (adulterers) are going to hell...along with the obese, (gluttons), those that are bankrupt, (stealing), those that drink to much coffee or pop, (excesses).

Why do they give all of their attention to the homosexuals? Could it be, this is a temptation for many more people, than actually will admit it...(Ted Haggard, Jim Bakker, Jim Mcgrevy, etc..).

So, why are fundamentalists so obsessed with the homosexual? Why are they concerned with the actions of two consenting adults in privacy?

Genesis 4:3-5
3And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD.
4And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to his offering:
5But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell. (KJV)

I've been studying a little bit of the culture of Lebanon, and I found out that in the northern part of the country live the Maronite, which is a division of the catholic religion that exist only in Lebanon. But there's also another group with a different religion. This other group is a very closed community, and no one knows what exactly they believe in. I was wondering if anyone knows or has an idea what it's they're religion about. The've been around for longer than any other religious group in Lebanon and are still around.
