To the best of my knowledge this is a form of withcraft, and is used by Satans Secret Society as the tool to performe there ceremony.Duetoronomy strictly forbids such practices and all who practice such things shall be cursed unless repentant. Christian will have repurcusions from having dabbled into sorcery.

BBC-Nicolas Sarkozy has called for a strong Europe to rebuild a more harmonious world order, in his first foreign policy speech as French president.
Sarkozy said he remained opposed to Turkey's EU membership bid, but said he would not block further negotiations.

The emergence of a "strong Europe as a major player" internationally would help "rebuild a more efficient, fair and harmonious WORLD ORDER," he said.

He said the EU needed strong defence, immigration and environment policies. A committee of 10 experts should be set up to think about what the EU's mission should be
Revelation 13
And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the bsea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.
2 And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his apower, and his seat, and great authority.

Men are smelly creations. yet, they continue to claim cleanliness, when women are much nicer and cleaner. I have been in 23 relationships, and believe me; men smell. it is just part of their chemical make up. Yet, they continue to claim their supremicy.

We hear the complaint all the time that some people are way too pushy in trying to tell others about their religion. But some people, most notably Christians and Muslims, have a duty to proselytize as part of their religion. So what would you consider to be acceptable and not too pushy?

a new book has just been released which catalogs the life of mother teresa. in it, it discusses several moments in her life when she went through crises of her faith where she admittedly just did not believe in god. so my question is why do so many people here act like it's never even been a question for them, and that they are absolutely positive that a god exists? is it really possible to not have any doubts?

..your contacts questions? I usually only answer questions my contacts point out or post themselves, some more than others, depending on the angle of the question they ask.

Also WHY do people get so serious and emotionally distressed over Yahoo Answers? Probably too much time spent in Yahoo internet land? This one person got so pissed that I called her vain in a really vain question she asked. She like hates me now lol.

Randy Alcorn wrote a book tited 'Lord Foulgrin's Letters'. There may have been a sequel, I have forgotten. This book is available on audio tape also. The book is similar to C.S. Lewis' book 'Screwtape Letters'. It traces the attempts of the devil to entrap and enslave human beings. Very clever, even quite funny as the devil continually is foiled. What did you think of this book?

So I just cloned myself. Then I made a robot version of me that has artificial intelligence. They both claim to have a soul; they can simulate all the basic emotions. How can I prove I'm the only one with a real soul ?

Even though you are not the majority of Christians, (most are not bible literalists and believe in God AND also that evolution is valid biological/earth scientific study),

I do believe that a public school must facilitate everyone if possible.

So what do you say about a compromise that teaches science in science class i.e. evolution, specialization, ecology etc.

However another class can be formed to teach all about theological arguments and religion and kids can learn about the various creation stories from different faiths around the world etc.

In Europe, which has a better education system than we have in America, kids at High School level have comparative religion and philosophy classes.

What do you say to that? Religious views and arguements will be aired and in the RIGHT setting and appropriate place for it.

Surely there can be better solution right?

It cleary states in the Story of creation after the Golden, Silver and Bronze men were killed off by the Gods, Prometheus stole the secret of fire and gave it to humans.
Yet Science trys to claim it is the result of an Exothermic reaction not a gift from the Gods?
Do our Science classes need to give this more thought?

Since most people who are against homosexuality are Christians who believe it is a "sin" and often quote verses from the bible, shouldn't they also be just as hateful towards people who have sex outside of marriage? I mean isn't "all sin equal in the eyes of God?" The Bible states that you should not have sex before or outside of marriage so wouldn't that make ALL the people who do so just as much sexual deviants as the gay people? Isn't it unfair to single out the homosexuals even though God sees pre-marital sex as an equal crime against him?

I never quite understand the use of the word 'belief' when people ask the question of evolution vs. creation......Evolution has scientific evidence and creationism does not. Evolution being science has nothing to do with belief, it has to do with acceptance from my perspective as well as others. Thoughts?

"Kentucky, Mississippi and Arkansas...voted overwhelmingly for constitutional amendments to ban gay marriage. But they had three of the highest divorce rates in 2003.

The lowest divorce rates are largely in the blue states: the Northeast and the upper Midwest. And the state with the lowest divorce rate was Massachusetts."

The answer, in my mind has everything to do with economics, education, and marriage age and nothing to do with gay marriage.

But does this not show that America has room multiple family types with differing "family values"? Isn't the freedom for my family to decide it's own values (and your family to decide its own) what liberty is about?

Well I figure the atheists should go first because they have the least amount of time left. The Christians should go next because they will only do this once, and the pagans need to go last because they believe in reincarnation so they'll have multiple experiences at this.
