Asperger's Syndrome: the inability to empathize because 'theory of mind' is a concept that has been physically mapped with fMRI to specifically NOT exist in these individuals.

Renders them incapable of forethought and consequencial effects of their actions and predictability of other's actions.

It is not real blood, it does not come from a person, does that make any differense? Is it still viewed the same? Would you still refuse it?

This resulted from complaints by Muslim Groups who demand to have the Qur'an made available also. Is this another Terrorist act by Radical Muslims who want to undermine the religious foundations in America?

I just want to help ease some of the stereotypes people have against muslimahs. So I'm asking:

Do you like wearing the hijab, if you do?

Were you forced to?

Are you treated with equality by men?

I already know the answers, I just want to put it out there for people to read.....


So the answer are coming from the actual women of Islam.........NOT coming from white protestant males, or governement officials, or women who believe that the US grants them 100% equal rights, which is not true.

What do you believe? Think of the Jehovah's Witness faith, think of contaminated blood. Think of life or death. Think of whether a parent of jehovahs witness faith should be allowed to give the choice of this for their children.

Geneses 17:1-16
“17:10 This is my covenant, which ye shall keep, between me and you and thy seed after thee; Every man child among you shall be circumcised”
Can someone explained to me please. If God is so immutable (unchangeable) as most Christians are trying to portrait him, than how come circumcision is not necessary for Christians?
When people bring the argument that Jesus fulfill the law or anything similar to that they are misleading others. Covenant is not a law. There is a huge difference between law and what god promised.
As far as we can see, few thousand years before Jesus even showed up in the picture god makes promise to Abraham. And as anyone who reads Geneses can see that god did not asked anything in return from Abraham and his future children’s except circumcision for this covenant. Whatever law Jewish people create in the name of god later on has nothing to do with this covenant.

For example, instead of mindlessly squishing ants on the sidewalk, running squirrels over in my car, or annihilating millions of bacteria with mouthwash, what if I made a ritual of it?

It could be complete with candles, white clothing, and a Bible, and I could make some holy incantation in the Latin as I'm focusing the sun's rays on the hapless ant with my magnifying glass, or securing the squirrel's limbs in the middle of the road and blessing my Goodyears with holy water before going 0-60 over it.

If I acted upon these animal Isaac's, would God give me a boon for emulating Abraham?

Im just curious how many people actually believe in the world ending and how it is supposed to end. I understand people say in the Bible the world will end but it just confuses me. Is this just another one of those "Y2K" world ending things or not?

Here are the verses:

2 Corinthians 12:1-3
"I must go on boasting. Although there is nothing to be gained, I will go on to visions and revelations from the Lord. I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven. Whether it was in the body or out of the body I do not know—God knows. And I know that this man—whether in the body or apart from the body I do not know, but God knows"

Alot of scholars tend to think that Paul was describing himself here......as if he were speaking in the "third person" so to speak. I have 2 questions concerning this:

1) Do you think Paul is describing himself here?
2) If it is indeed Paul, why do you suppose he used this tense (3rd person)?

Thanks,

Primo

It all just sounds too made up to believe
or because of things that have happened to you that you believe a true God would not allow, or something else.

The "mark of the beast" is not a human person such as some world leader; "the mark of the beast" is the normal human, but still too animal-like, nature. We know that human nature is hard to change ! Some here still want to be (and do advertise) that they are a "PARTY ANIMAL", until they later learn by hard experiences the real costs of such irrational and immoral behaviors.

BUT, soon modern micro-biology DNA science discoveries will easily allow us to improve our DNA to safely and permanently remove all residual animal hairs from our bodies and from our children.

Will you then choose to stay somewhat animal hairy as your are now? or (if free or very cheap $) choose to change your DNA to fully remove all gross animal hairs ? Or do you want to change the other way to be as fully hairly as a grizzly bear or a goat ? Is fully bald beautiful ? or fully hairy ? or your present patchy clumps of animal hair ?

This is a serious question, even though I added humor?

I have less problem if a Jehovah's Witness wants to commit suicide by denying a blood transfusion for themselves. It is a free country, and we have the ability to chose.

Do they have the right to make that choice for their children?

If the women in europe, who recently died giving birth to twins, had used her conscience to decide if her twins could have a blood transfusion, if their lives were in danger, we could have 2 dead babies today. Do parents have the right to make this decision for someone else, even if that someone is your own child?

The Jewish people are historically the most oppressed and persecuted nation/religion in the world. What could possibly have caused this? (and don't say because they crucified jesus because he was known as rabbi jesus i.e. a jewish priest and if they hadn't then nobody would have 'died for your sins' and there would be no christian religion...)
