The Holy Bible


But according to this there is a scientific explanation:

There are three heavens, 1st heaven is our atmosphere, 2nd heaven is outer space, 3rd heaven is where God is (a spiritual place).

The need for rain at a particular time and the dangers attendant upon drought brought rain prominently into the religion of most agricultural peoples. Rain-gods and thunder-gods are more prominent in many mythologies than sun-gods, and they have been propitiated in various ways in different cultures. The rain dances of the Native Americans may, however, be said to be generally typical of all in the elaborate symbolic gestures and patterns and in the extensive use of drums and rattles (presumably sympathetic magic by imitation of the sounds of thunder and showering rain). Because the purpose is to make the fields bear crops, the connection of such rites with those of fertility is obvious.

you obviously believe in satan as much as you do god, my four year old is always asking me where heaven is and why dead people go there and are they peeing on us when it rains, this is typical of a four year old and your question here & now got me thinking about that ....sorry..... once he asked why did god give the devil time out.... i told him the devil was gods son who was a very bad boy so god gave him time out until he can be a good boy again, which then made me think..... i would never leave my son no matter how evil got to him, i would get help for him with all the powers of love in every way you could immagine , no matter what it would take i would never give in , as a father i am a god too to him and will always be there for him until i am no more.... so am i right to have this kind of love or should i follow gods example and dessert him forever at the first signs of evil in his soul like he did to his son

In Genesis 1, the Bible says God created the heavens (uh oh, plural) and the earth. And it says that birds flew in the heavens. To anyone normal, this means that the sky is considered one of the heavens. Ta-da! Rain comes from that one.

The entries in Wikipedia are written by regular people like you and I. These entries can be edited by ANYONE - so I wouldn't believe everything I read at that site (though much is true - I would double check, if something were really important).

Wikipedia, is not a "recognised encyclopedia", because ANYONE CAN PUT ANYTHING ON THERE!!!

They do not check nor verify anything that anyone puts on there!! So, people can put downright lies on there and since there isnt a committee to disclaim it, its accepted as "fact" by those who are unsuspecting, and read it, and think, that just because its on a "encyclopedia site", which, they even claim that its not, its just a formation of information thats gathered from any sourse you want to put in there, they will accept it as fact, instead of fiction because they dont KNOW!

I wish you well..

You have to check and get a little deeper, the Bible uses heaven and it doesn't always mean what you thinkk it means. Also Wiklpeida is written by anyone, and is edited by anyone. Just cross reference what you find.
