Jeremiah 4:23

I beheld the earth, and indeed it was without form, and void; And the heavens they had no light.
I beheld the mountains, and indeed they trembled, and all the hills moved back and forth. I beheld, and indeed there was no man, And all the birds of the heavens had fled. I beheld, and indeed the fruitful land was wilderness, And all its cities were broken down At the presence of the lord by his fierce anger.

Was wondering if someone could explain what exactly it is and what they were trying to say by comparing genesis with this prophesy of invasion of Assyria/ whoever it was that defeated Isreal.

And how did the animal survive while these changes were occurring? For example, did the first animal develop 10% of complete veins, then 20%, and on up to 100%, with veins throughout its entire body and brain? Then how did the heart slowly develop in the animal and get attached to the veins in the right spot? How did the blood enter the system? The blood could not enter before the veins were complete or it would spill out. Where did the blood come from? Did the blood have red corpuscles, white corpuscles, platelets, and plasma? At what point in this process of development did the heart start beating? Did the animal develop a partial stomach, then a complete stomach? After the stomach was formed, how did the digestive juices enter the stomach? Where did the hydrochloric acid as part of the digestive juices come from? What about its kidney and bladder? The animal better not eat anything prior to this. How did the animal survive during these changes? (And over thousands of years?

What is your take on this matter?

According to the principle of evolution (which I whole-heartedly support), a species would not fully acquire a skill unless it was necessary for reproduction and survival, right?

Well if you believe in this and no spiritual realm, how can you explain the skills that the human race has acquired? The skills that are far and above anything needed for survival? Eloquent symphonies, fictional novels, astounding works of art, mind-blowing technology, computer games, entertaining movies, moral law, extreme selflessness, and the never ending need for spiritual satisfaction? NONE of these things have ever had anything to do with the ability to survive . . . and yet they flourish more than ever!

You know that none of this is found in any other species! Your thoughts please . . . I promise I am a VERY opened minded person . . . are you?

1. they don't pay any one to tell them how to go to heaven. Instead they are encouraged to read the bible and pray to God for answers.

2. No paid preacher... did I say that? Sorry but paying a guy to tell you how the read the bible is ridiculous!

3. The purpose of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day saints is to help you quit sinning. No smoking, no liquor, no sex before marriage. I know of NO other church that follows the bible THAT close.

4. Members can be excommunicated. No other church will throw you out as long as your wallet is open and full.

5. I have been to the church and I have actually read the Book of Mormon. I investigated the church instead of trusting in the preacher that you all pay.

It's kind of entertaining at night! Especially if you're a bit bored and a little tipsy.

Being with more than one partner is biological unnatural and polygamy is not supported by the Bible.

this is one that I struggle with personally. I'm sure we all have.

I am working hard to overcome what I perceive as this flaw of character. But I am curious to know:

Are you attempting to overcome this flaw in your character?
or do you feel that it is NOT a flaw but a natural defence mechanism?

It is said that there are very few athiest in foxholes. I used to think I was unsaveable until I was shown a little bit of hell, that in itself greatly improved my faith in the Lord, & no longer have to worry about my future.

Hmm... I've never celebrated Halloween before, in my country it is not celebrated and the 3 Halloweens I've had in the US were busy, in one I was moving, another one I was working and another one I was very busy on MySpace to go outside :P But when I was in DR I always wanted to go ask for candy and stuff.

I ask this because this would be my 1st Halloween being a Mormon and Halloween is celebrated Sunday night.... Sabbath Day. And, what does the church think about the Halloween beginings, do the church ban celebratin this Holiday?

Thanks, love you all ^_^

According to Christianity; Satan is the "Prince of Lies." It is said that he will appear to you under the guise of an angel of light to deceive you. Now, think carefully before you answer this: Are you sure that the Bible is not a work of Satan, containing just enough good to fool you, but also containing blasphemous ideas which are not of God? How can you know for sure?

it's Christian metal music. It's so badass. But the lyrics are so good. Not only is it hardcore, it's better than all that emo music or screamo music kids listen to these days.
