she had seen my pentagram? I am Pagan but still have the utmost respect for other faiths. I know other faiths do not share this respect. So I must know, would she have smiled and returned my greeting if she realized I was a witch?

spiritually speaking or otherwise. I thought as we are approaching Thanksgiving this was appropriate.
I am so very thankful for my friends and my children.

Youtube video of the French version of "Who wants to be a millionaire" where a contestant cannot answer this and has to ask the audience. Surprising response.

Evolution is a scientific fact, the Earth is older than 3,000 years, the Big Bang probably started it all, Gay men and women have a slightly different biological makeup than heterosexuals which can be checked after birth (neurologists have recently discovered), the precentage of atheists in the world are increasing much more so than religious followers, psychologists are suggesting refinements of the Terror Management Theory in order to explain illogical religious beliefs in humans. It's funny an omniscient god would have forgotten to mention these in the Bible, don't you think?

Do you remember the snake in the Garden of Eden? God cursed him, and told him that he would crawl on his belly for the rest of his days and eat the dust of the earth; the implication is that he already had legs. Thus evolution of a lizard into a snake is demonstrated. Pretty neat huh?

Something along the lines of, "Woman, (to Mary), go tend to your son."
It is in the film The Passion of Christ.

I understand that God promised Israel a messiah. Jesus was not the promised messiah and that the promised messiah is yet to come. So what's supposed to happen if he does come? end of the world? new world order?

I'm supposed to meet with my new rabbi on Thursday regarding converting to Judaism. I've been studying for years and minored in Jewish History. What would be some great things to bring up to him during our meeting?

By the way, the last time we met he said that the goal was that when I felt that when people asked me what relgiion I was/or said something about the Jewish people, that I would feel on a gut level that I am Jewish. Should I say that to him if he asks again, or would that be rude? It would be the truth, but I don't want to cause offense!

It seems that women, especially attractive young women, get away with exponenentially easier sentences than men who do the same thing...why?

And a second part...

Does it seem that there are more women day by day committing these kinds of crimes that are historically dominated by male perpetrators???

Why are more women becoming perverted as their counterparts???

So I just saw some BS commercial that smoking pot supports terrorism... *Blink* .... One second and I will continue...

*scritcha* ... *Scritcha* ..... *gurgle*gurgle*gurgle*gurgle* and *gurgle* *EXHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALE* *cough cough cough*...

now then what we were talking about... Oh yea man! If one looks at the prohibition era for example, one finds almost instantaneous crimminal attempts to fill the alchohol void left by said program. In essence, by simple denial as opposed to regulation moralists and the govt CREATED a HUGE violent crimminal industry. I think this to be true of prostitution and drug laws. The negative impacts on these two cottage industries is HUGE. Prostitution being outlawed has led to female slavery of a sort, disease, etc and so on. When Reagan declared war on HIS OWN COUNTRY he cost us BILLIONS of dollars and ruined the lives of millions of otherwise law abiding americans. Not to mention giving a massine income to drug cartels and terrorists... What say you?

"We were convinced that the people needs and requires this faith. We have therefore undertaken the fight against the atheistic movement, and that not merely with a few theoretical declarations: we have stamped it out."
Adolf Hitler, in a speech delivered in Berlin, 24 October 1933

Jesus did not call them Abraham's children, but a "brood of vipers" [Matt. 3:7]. Oh, that was too insulting for the noble blood and race of Israel, and they declared, "He has a demon' [Matt 11:18]. Our Lord also calls them a "brood of vipers"; furthermore in John 8 [:39,44] he states: "If you were Abraham's children ye would do what Abraham did.... You are of your father the devil. It was intolerable to them to hear that they were not Abraham's but the devil's children, nor can they bear to hear this today.------Martin Luther

Hitler stated: "Christ was the greatest early fighter in the battle against the world enemy, the Jews . . . The work that Christ started but could not finish, I--Adolf Hitler--will conclude."

"And the founder of Christianity made no secret indeed of his estimation of the Jewish people. When He found it necessary, He drove those enemies of the human race out of the Temple of God. ---- Adolph Hitler, Mein Kampf, pp.174

"Hence today I believe that I am acting in accordance with the will of the Almighty Creator: by defending myself against the Jew, I am fighting for the work of the Lord."
Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf, Ralph Mannheim, ed., p. 65, New York: Mariner Books, 1999

"And the founder of Christianity made no secret indeed of his estimation of the Jewish people. When He found it necessary, He drove those enemies of the human race out of the Temple of God.
---Adolph Hitler, Mein Kampf, pp.174

Many times Althaus explained to Christians his preference for the Third Reich over the former Weimar Republic. “We Christians know,” he stated, “that we are bound by God’s will to the promotion of National Socialism, so that all members of the people will be ready for service and sacrifice.” (“Kirche and Staat,” p. 29)

Paul Althaus, a Lutheran theologian of renown in Germany, warmly greeted the rise of Hitler. He wrote that, “The Protestant churches have greeted the political turning point as a gift and miracle of God”.. (“Die deutsche Stunde der Kirche,” p.5)

In a speech to Polish Catholics, Hitler declared: “I as a German Catholic, ask only what is permitted to Polish Catholics. To be antisemitic is not to be un-Catholic. The Church used every weapon against the Jews, even the Inquisition. Christ himself was a pioneer in the fight against Judaism.” (ibid, p. 146)

At a Church conference, Hitler affirmed that the Catholic Church has always regarded Jews as evildoers and had banished them into ghettos. He (Hitler) is only doing what the Church had been doing for fifteen hundred years.. (ibid, p. 79)

“I do insist on the certainty that sooner or later – once we hold power – Christianity will be overcome and the German Church established. Yes, the German church, without a Pope, and Luther, if he could be with us, would give us his blessing.” (Adolf Hitler, Hitler’s speeches, edited by Prof. N.H. Baynes [oxford, 1942], pg. 369.)

“If I find a Jew to baptize, I shall lead him to the Elbe bridge, hang a stone around his neck, and push him into the water, baptizing him with the name of Avraham!.. I cannot convert the Jews. Our lord Christ did not succeed in doing so; but I can close their mouths so that there will be nothing for them to do but to lie upon the ground.” – Martin Luther

Often times, I think that people go about it all wrong. An atheist will say that he is logical and has the ability to think freely. Yet he will demean people of faith. This is not a good way to represent atheism.

A theist on the other hand will say that he is righteous and quote scriptures. Then on the other hand, will condemn anyone who doesn't believe and turn a deaf ear to anyone who may have questions about their religion. This too is not a good way to represent theism.

So how do you demonstrate to others that atheist and/or theist are decent people? How do you respectfully answer their questions about atheism and theism?

Your thoughts and your bible verses...Don't take this wrongly...It is just a challenge to see how many Christians may answer differently from one another.......
Why do Christian's truly not believe in evolution? Couldn't God have been the creater of Evolution? Are there bible verses that prove evolution is false?
Just a cquestion my friends nothing more My belief is the creator is just that, the creator.

They say rape isn't about sex [men say that] oh it is about having sex these sub-humans just want to make sure their victims don't have much of a fight in them. At least if we put them down they will not be around to rape and murder anyone else.
