I have been taking care of a woman in home health for a week and half, she is Mormon and wants me to take her to church because she cant go herself. I am not comfortable with that, I do not even want to walk into a mormon church, I want nothing to do with them. what should I do?

the next part, her daughter has power of attorney, and is keeps saying she will bring me my W2 forms, I asked her again today about them she said they would be there when I got there, they never showed up, what should I do?

next, her mom is very sick, and I feel she needs to be put in the nursing home, I had to go to the food bank today to get her food. her daughter wont do anything for her, I brought her laundry home and sat here for 2 days washing her clothes. she fell this morning and has been very sick, when I called her daughter I told her, she acted like she could care less, what should I do?

I saw something on the history channel once about how the Roman empire refused to go along with some of the scripture so they made up stuff and left other stuff out before they compiled the Bible as we know it today. My question is, do you know of any sites that prove this? Thank you.

I have, and I agree that it does exist, but for muslims and all of those who believe in one God, this is not part of the religion. The "arranged marriages" where a woman is not even asked is unislamic, and according to the Sunnah of the Prophet (PBUH), if her consent was not asked the marriage is invalid. What do you think of this?

"The consent of both the man and the women is an essential element of marriage, and the Qur'an gives women a substantial role in choosing their own life partners. It lays down:

Do not prevent them from marrying their husbands when they agree between themselves in a lawful manner. (2: 232)"

I can almost understand all divination being condemned (according to the bible). What I don't understand is how so many people were condemned for it if they practiced oneiromancy (divination by dreams) if Joseph interpreted the pharoh's dreams the same way. Any thoughts?

She’s been pregnant all of her life... Should there be a worldwide enforced limit on the number of kids a person or family should be allowed to have? I really think so... The character Smith (The Matrix) said it best "Humankind is more like a virus than any other organism on earth we spread and consume every available natural resource and when the resources in one area are gone we move on to the next area"

If he is a part of God then God created Jesus and that would mean that parts of the Trinity are "creation" and therefore to worship the Trinity includes worshipping creation.

If he is only a Great Prophet then he is a creation of God.

So.......... which one is it ?

"Evolution requires intermediate forms between species and paleontology does not provide them" (David Kitts, paleontologist and evolutionist).
"I admit that an awful lot of that [fantasy] has gotten into the textbooks as though it were true. For instance, the most famous example still on exhibit downstairs [in the American Museum of Natural History] is the exhibit on horse evolution prepared fifty years ago. That has been presented as literal truth in textbook after textbook. Now, I think that that is lamentable, particularly because the people who propose these kinds of stories themselves may be aware of the speculative nature of some of the stuff. But by the time it filters down to the textbooks, we've got science as truth and we have a problem" (Dr. Niles Eldredge, paleontologist and evolutionist).
"The intelligent layman has long suspected circular reasoning in the use of rocks to date fossils and fossils to date rocks. The geologist has never bothered to think of a good reply"

Can you cast a spell on someone without you knowing you did? Without performing any rituals? Only by thinking of someone? Maybe in a very filled of energy way?

then explain this to me. When we dropped the atomic bombs on Japan it released lots of deadly radiation. When Chernobyl had a meltdown, it also released lots of deadly radiation. After each of these incidents scientists made estimates as to how long it would take the radiation by these 2 incidents to decay to safe levels again. Obviously the radiation hasen't decays to safe levels yet, but their predictions for 2007 are spot on. This is a pretty good indication to me that radioactive dating works.

Do the Christians, atheists, muslims, pagans, etc. here give good depiction of the Christi... that you have personally met and interacted with?

How, if your answer is no, do they differ?

Were they the Jewish parts........ ?

I know Martin Luther (Germany) hated the Jews with a passion.

And Protestants say he was guided by the Holy Spirit ?

when i tell an atheist about my religion they seem to be interested and don't tell me over and over how i'm wrong [maybe because christians tend to tell them there going to hell , just like they tell me]

and christians are always the ones to jump out and tell me to change my ways... i'm on the path to hell... or something about Jesus

[if you are wondering i'm in The Thelemic Order of the Golden Dawn]

Definitely, Taleban and Laden were trained by Americans to
fight the Soviets in Afghanistan.Why they voted your fugly terrorist President Bush for the second term? Why America supports the unworthy autocratic rulers in some Muslim countries? Why did UK and USA attacked IRAQ with false reasons? Why they are supporting
the Israeli INVADERS? Why America sold poison gases to Saddam--which he used to gas the Iranians? Why CIA
overthrowed the democratic prime minister Mosaddeq in Iran-
brought the autocratic Shah in power--who ironically were overthrown by the Islamic Revolutionaries? I can ask 1000
why's and you won't be able to answer a single one to convince me that I am wrong. Try to research in these questions and you will get the answers to your questions.

I've always enjoyed contemplating the value of art. Oscar Wilde wrote that "The only reason for making a useless object is that one admire it intensely. All art is quite useless". Oscar should know. I find in his writing a supreme example of the power that art has to immortalize its subject.

"The Picture Of Dorian Gray" is Wilde's sole novel; he wrote some poetry, children's tales, and, what he is most famous for, plays, but "Dorian Gray" is his only full-length work of fiction. It's the story of a handsome artist's model who's so admired by the artist he is posing for that the artist imbues his painting with the ability to age in place of Dorian. Dorian is immortalized. What most don't realize is that Wilde was doing the same.

His love of the time(pre-Alfred Douglas) was John Gray. John Gray became Dorian Gray in the novel, & Wilde used the novel to immortalize him forever in tribute of love. Quite spiritual I say. Do you believe art has spiritual qualities? Examples?

Maybe earth is just a love child between God and Nature(science). religion is God's lawyer and scientists are Nature's lawyer. Isn't there some sort of way we could settle civily. I think we should have equal time with both. Science and God can coexist. Just ask most scientist/philosophers throughout history.

I’ve noticed a few ads for the LDS church on TV lately. The depict scenes portrayed by actors of biblical events like the crucifixion and resurrection of Christ. Sure this forms a component of Mormon beliefs but it’s not the key component. The key components are the absurd beliefs about golden plates, seer stones and ancient Jewish civilizations in North America etc but there’s no mention of these in their ads. I think the reason they do this is a lot like the reason a used car salesman doesn’t mention the clunking noise in the transmission in the car he’s trying to sell you, wouldn’t you agree?
