No one but our own selves, what breaks the tie , is believing in God doing his wills, obey and loving him with all of our beings. We were already ordained , when Jesus redeemed us from all destruction, from the kingdom of darkness.

What exactly is Liberation Theology?

2010-07-18T18:32:00.015-07:00

Simply put, Liberation Theology is an attempt to interpret Scripture through the plight of the poor. It is largely a humanistic doctrine. It started in South America in the turbulent 1950s when Marxism was making great gains among the poor because of its emphasis on the redistribution of wealth, allowing poor peasants to share in the wealth of the colonial elite and thus upgrade their economic status in life. As a theology, it has very strong Roman Catholic roots.

Liberation Theology was bolstered in 1968 at the Second Latin American Bishops Conference which met in Medellin, Colombia. The idea was to study the Bible and to fight for social justice in Christian (Catholic) communities. Since the only governmental model for the redistribution of the wealth in a South American country was a Marxist model, the redistribution of wealth to raise the economic standards of the poor in South America took on a definite Marxist flavor. Since those who had money were very reluctant to part with it in any wealth redistribution model, the use of a populist (read poor) revolt was encouraged by those who worked most closely with the poor. As a result, the Liberation Theology model was mired in Marxist dogma and revolutionary causes.

As a result of its Marxist leanings, Liberation Theology as practiced by the bishops and priests of South America was criticized in the 1980s by the Catholic hierarchy, from Pope John Paul on down. The top hierarchy of the Catholic Church accused liberation theologians of supporting violent revolutions and outright Marxist class struggle. This perversion is usually the result of a humanist view of man being codified into Church Doctrine by zealous priests and bishops and explains why the Catholic top hierarchy now wants to separate itself from Marxist doctrine and revolution.

However, Liberation Theology has moved from the poor peasants in South America to the poor blacks in North America. We now have Black Liberation Theology being preached in the black community. It is the same Marxist, revolutionary, humanistic philosophy found in South American Liberation Theology and has no more claim for a scriptural basis than the South American model has. False doctrine is still false, no matter how it is dressed up or what fancy name is attached to it. In the same way that revolutionary fervor was stirred up in South America, Liberation Theology is now trying to stir up revolutionary fervor among blacks in America. If the church in America recognizes the falseness of Black Liberation Theology as the Catholic Church did in the South American model, Black Liberation Theology will suffer the same fate that the South America Liberation Theology did; namely, it will be seen as a false, humanist doctrine dressed up in theological terms.

Islamically speaking: Is the wife obliged to iron the husband

2010-07-18T18:32:00.011-07:00

no it is not obliged but it would be nice if she did that. How the husband looks sometimes reflects on the wife. sad but true. If the husband goes to work or out with wrinkles and/or dirty dingy clothes on, then it reflects on the wife. Oh I know I will get the thumbs down on this answer. lol
lol wth??

funny question by far
well she is obliged to take care of him, but im sure the husband can iron his own shirts for once in a while.
No.
Islamically speaking? o_O
lmao
From what I know, the wife is not obliged to do anything other than have intercourse with her husband since the point of marriage is to keep both man and woman from committing adultery. It is out of the love and respect you have for one another that you do things for each other because it is union.

God knows best.
Agreed with above.

Doing household duties is actually voluntary, to keep the peace in the household and so that both partners have duties to sustain (i.e. the man works outside, the woman works inside)

What Materials Do I Need To Build A Kosher Sukkah?

2010-07-18T18:32:00.006-07:00

I would like to build my first Sukkah this year and am aiming for a completely kosher one. Does anyone know where I can get plans and a materials list?
The easiest way is to buy one that comes with all the necessary, certified-kosher, parts. http://www.sukkahdepot.com/English/Defau

If you want to build it yourself, the basic guidelines are as follows:

A sukkah must have at least 3 solid walls that will not billow in the wind.

The roof of the sukkah must be made from something natural, like wood, and must have spaces in it to allow one to see the sky. However, the roof must provide more shade than sun.

You are not allowed to build a sukkah under a tree.

There are many other laws, some of which are quite complicated. See here for more:

Was the Virgin Mary based on Isis?

2010-07-18T18:32:00.005-07:00

I live in Spain and overheard someone saying that at a party.

He was saying that Spain was the first country to officially start worshipping Mary, who was based on Isis, in order to make sense of the pagan religion of the time. But Isis?!? Wasnt she Egyptian? Surely that influence couldnt have travelled that far.

I didnt feel confident enough to approach the guy and ask more.

My question:

1.Was the Virgin Mary based on Isis?

2. What has that got to do with Spain?

3. Was Spain really the first country to officially accept the Virgin Mary?

4. Is this guy talking out of his ****?

PS The bloke was Spanish.

The church values itself higher than the welfare of children. Should society trust it with children?

2010-07-08T18:10:00.003-07:00

The church is supposed to be the earthly embodiment of the glory of God and nothing is more important than that in their view.
Well the Catholic Church obviously feels this way since it covered up horrible crimes against children just to protect itself. If it cared about the welfare of children more, it would have exposed the priests, not hidden them.

How do wild female lions typically react to cubs that aren

2010-07-08T18:10:00.000-07:00

Perhaps this lioness has stumbled upon a mothers cubs. What would she typically do?
It depends on whether or not the mother is part of the same pride as the mother which gave birth to those cubs.

In which case, the lioness would probably actually take care of those cubs and lead them to safety - perhaps even allowing them to suckle.

It is very rare for rival prides to attack cubs, due to the fact that their territories are so vast and prides are so powerful that they rarely manage to even get that far into rival territory.

A male lion, on the other hand, will attack and kill cubs sired by other males on sight.
Eat them
free lunch!
If they are of the same pride she will care for them, if a different pride kill them. Cheetahs however will care for cubs that aren

At the beach they had a kite festival and a crab festival on the first weekend of spring break.

What are some irrational fears you have?

2009-04-09T18:29:00.012-07:00

I have an irrational fear of my nail ripping out. And, especially when I have a lose nail close to the edge of my skin, I%26#039;m afraid that if my nail rubs hard against some cloth/blanket, my whole nail might rip off. I just get so worried and scared of that happening.

So, what are some of your irrational fears?

It%26#039;s 2 AM here, I should get to bed.

Ma%26#039;asalam.

I actually have alot of them. And they are all weird and annoying.

1. Similar to yours but i have this weird fear of someone separating half of my nail from my finger to insert some red chili in...(I saw this happening to someone in a movie when i was i kid)

2. When i wear a head scarf, i ALWAYS fear that the pin under my chin will hurt me on the neck. Even though it is tightly closed and no way is it gonna hurt me unless i leave it open. But i just think about it every time i wear the hijab.

3. Whenever i wear high heels, i feel as if i am going to break the back of my ankle(whatever that part is called...i dont know?)...

4. Oh and, also when i wear super high heels, i feel as if i am going to hurt my backbone real bad. What does high heels have to do with backbone?...I dont know..

There are more that i can%26#039;%26#039;t think of now. But i might get back if i think of more.

i think you might have developed this phobia beause you%26#039;ve have got hurt ,you nail might have been ripped off , its pain ful ,i know,but i think you should think rationally ,its ok .

i dont have any irrational fear now but when i was 10 ,i couldnt swallow tablets (medicine) i thought i would get stuck in my food pipe ,and whenever i got fever or cold i used take only syrups ,but then soon i got out of it.

sometimes i fear people, which is weird because usually i am very comfortable around them and its dumb for me to fear them. i want to stop being such a loser in that area. people are 99% cool and even the dumb ones can be tolerated until you can get away from them and go back to the other 99% again :)

I have a fear that I make a lot of mistakes the truth is I make a hell lot of mistakes.

Another is I fear poverty, As I have know what it is. I feel I have a rags to riches story (Thanks to Almighty Allah)

I have a fear of men. I am totally irrationally paranoid about them. (I think I have good reason) However even then ,I know I am paranoid lol.

I have this fear that the people of Ramadan might start being nice to me , wouldn%26#039;t want that.

Maybe you can Hjab your nails too?

you should also fear me cuz i know your secret

Fusion restaurants...i can explain why...i just refuse to go into one.

I wish you a happy Easter?

2009-04-09T18:29:00.011-07:00

I should like to wish all of you a happy Easter!

Do you have any plans for this weekend? Are you going away or do you stay at home? I stay at home and do some gardening, tending to my roses.

One of my colleagues just came in and told us his wife is in labour. They are going to have an Easter baby!

Thanks, you too.

i used to go to the country and spend the Easter with my grandparents aunts uncles and so on, but, well time passes and there's just not enough time these days... i sure could use some easter eggs right about now..

Hapy easter! and congratulation to your friend.

Why are you wishing "all of you" a happy Easter????

Since 2/3 the people on earth aren't Christian, why would you assume we would all celebrate it?

Stay away from my eggs!

Thankyou and you too..I'm going away to visit family..How wonderful,an Easter baby,hope all goes well...........

Why do people assume I am a Christian and wish me a happy Easter?

2009-04-09T18:29:00.010-07:00

Here in the USA, everywhere I go people just assume I am Christian. I am not, so I dont care to celebrate Christian holidays. Just as Christians dont observe Jewish Muslim or Buddhist holidays,

Shouldnt most people (teachers, waitresses, cashiers customers at Starbucks be aware that this is multi-cultural society????

That would mean actually putting their minds in gear before they speak. I would say that waitresses and cashiers have been told to do so by their managers. Some people assume this is a "Christian Nation"; it is a nation with Christians and it just doesn't occur to some people that not everyone they meet is a Christian.

They aren't trying to insult you; just consider it another form of "Have a nice day!" and ignore them. (One of my friends answered a cashier's brainless "have a nice day" with "Don't tell me what to do!")

Everyone celebrates different things and unless you have a big sign on your forehead their is no way of telling what you believe in. I look at it this way at least they were nice enough to Wish you a Happy Easter even if you don't celebrate it. Just tell them Thank You and that you hope they have one as well.

hey don't worry... If you are in America... soon enough the Christian Holidays you are talking about will be thrown out the windows to please the other relegions you are defending. Then everyone will gang up on that one and have that one taken away... and soon the next and soon the next.....

Customers at Starbucks? you're kidding me.... go live in a community that needs the faith that you take avantage of.... then you and the rest of your little kid friends can move to another country that you haven't destroyed.....

Someone saw you with your hand in the Easter basket taking chocolate eggs - the word has now spread that you love the Easter Bunny!

Or Chocolate?

This world is full of different things that people say. You can except them or not. That's why America is a great Country. It's called freedom. Enjoy!

I'm sure they were not trying to offend you. They were just being polite and wishing you a nice day, kind of like saying "Merry Christmas" or "Happy Halloween.

maybe because they are christian and dont know youre not?

Why are painted eggs and bunny rabbits affiliated with Easter?

2009-04-09T18:29:00.009-07:00

Whenever I think of Easter, I think of bunny rabbits and painting eggs, but, to be completely honest, I do not know why I think of painted eggs and rabbits. I mean, I know why I think of these things, because I grew up painting eggs on Easter, and waking up and finding a basket full of chocolate eggs and chocolate rabbits, but I don't know why I grew up painting eggs and waiting for the Easter bunny. Why are painted eggs and bunnies affiliated with Easter? Where does this affiliation originate from?

Rabbits and eggs are both symbols of the fertility goddess Eostre/Ishtar/Ostara. Her symbol is also the moon, in which some cultures see a rabbit instead of a face. Eggs also symbolize the moon and are the ultimate symbol of creation and new life. The basket is a symbol of the womb in which this new life is carried.

The feast day is pagan and was widely celebrated way before the time of Jesus. Like pretty much all holidays, it was adopted by Christians to help get more converts. However, since the point is to celebrate new life and the hope of continuance, Christian symbols of a Resurrection day and the old pagan symbols mean the same thing. Just like Christmas, we are all celebrating the same thing, just using different symbols.

Christians replaced the pagan holiday (the vernal equinox, when pagans celebrated life, rebirth, springtime, and fertility) with an observance of a christian event, regardless if the dates matched up. Because rabbits and eggs are symbols of fertility and springtime, they remained part of the celebration.

Because, like most christian holidays, it occurs at the same time a pagan holiday occurred. In this case, the holiday was related to spring and fertility.

because someone was high when they made up stuff 2 do 4 holidays like christmas someone was born who would think "hey lets put a tree in our house and make it colorful" a high person thats who so thats my theory

Hi!!!!! I need some easter help!!?

2009-04-09T18:29:00.007-07:00

for Easter i would like to make those eggs that you blow the yoke out of so that their hollow?? could you tell me how to make them please??

1. Wash the egg really well.

2. Shake the raw egg

3. Take a needle poke a small hole one the top and the bottom of the egg.

4. Blow into one of the holes while holding the egg over a bowl.

5. Let dry overnight

6. Decorate your egg.

You can also make flowers from egg shells. Break the egg in half.

Make small hole with a pin in the small end of the egg. Make larger hole (about 1/8th inch) in other end. With pin make sure that you brake yoke many time. Hold small end of egg up to your lips with other end over a bowl. Blow firmly to have insides of egg come out.

If you wish to dye the hollow eggs you will need to have a holder that allows you to force them under the liquid as they will want to float.

Take the egg and shake it up well, without breaking it, this will break the yoke in the egg to allow all of the insides to pour out.

Take a hot needle put it to the bottom of the egg and slowly spin the needle. This will slowly bore a hold in the bottom of the egg. let it sit in a place that the fluid can drip out the egg. If you want to fill the egg you will have to make a bigger hole. when you are done fillin it you want to take a little bit of either thin white paper and plaster of paris or white gafing tap to cover the hole up.

First shake the egg so the yolk wont stick together

next take a needle and slowly stick it through

but it upside down and let it come out

if it is going really slow add another whole next to the origanal whole

I haven't had my kids for easter in 2 years b/c of joint custody and me having to work so I went a bit overboard this year-but it will be fun!!

when i was younger i woke up on easter morning and there wasnt anything there.... my dad felt "bad" for us because the easter bunny didnt come and said he would take us to breakfast, when we walked out the door, there were baskets out side the door and eggs leading in a pathway that just stopped and he told us we better check the trees and make sure they werent hiding there...

When i was younger i always loved to get candy, barbie dolls, and sum fun stuff like those frogs that stick on walls, or those things where you pop it out and you put it on the ground and it pops up

candy sure... but also toothbrush, cool toothpaste, floss, vitamins... cuz you know... Easter can be fun AND good for you too.

We only did one or two egg hunts... they're all so frantic and they're over so quick! Maybe I'm just too easy a hider.

when we were younger, my dad would hide eggs all over the backyard. probably 20-30. for gifts, my mom puts together cute things that she sees that she thinks we'll like. :)

What is a good, healthy main dish I can cook for Easter?

2009-04-09T18:29:00.002-07:00

Leg of Lamb

1/2 cup packed fresh basil leaves

1/4 cup packed fresh mint leaves

1/4 cup packed fresh parsley leaves

2 tablespoons toasted pine nuts

2 tablespoons grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

1 clove garlic, peeled

1 teaspoon salt, divided

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

1 3 1/2-pound boneless leg of lamb, butterflied and trimmed

Preheat oven to 350F. Place basil, mint, parsley, pine nuts, cheese, oil, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper in a food processor and process until fairly smooth. Sprinkle lamb all over with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the pesto; spread the rest over the top side of the lamb and roll it closed. (It will not be a perfect cylinder.) Tie kitchen string around the roast in five places; do not tie too tightly or the pesto will squeeze out. Rub the reserved pesto over the outside of the lamb and place in a roasting pan. Roast the lamb until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 140F for medium-rare, about 1 hour 20 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board; let rest for 10 minutes. Carve the lamb, leaving the string in place to help hold the roast together.

Can you give me some tips for prizes for Easter Egg Hunt?

2009-04-09T18:29:00.001-07:00

The egg hunt should be all about having fun. Its not a competition. Rather than a big prize for the child who found the greatest number of eggs, plan on having a couple of random prizes including one for the child with the most eggs found. Here are some other ideas for special prizes:

Hide some special jeweled eggs or golden eggs with special prizes. If you have different age groups, you can give instructions that only the young age group can find the red jeweled egg, and the older age group can find the green jeweled egg, etc.

Hide an egg with a special prize mentioned on a note inside. The child who finds it gets a gift . It could be a friendship band or any other trinket, or maybe a book or a CD.

Announce a hard luck prize at the end of the hunt for the child who finds the least number of eggs.

A prize could also be given to the child who found the egg at the most difficult to find place.

Or you could let each child go back with heaps of treasure The fillers for plastic eggs could be fuzzy chicks, temporary tattoos, stickers, small toys, friendship bracelets, coins, candy or even play dough. Children will love opening all of their eggs and discovering their treasure. If you also have adults participating in your hunt, you can even put special treats in the eggs that only adults would find. The adults are sure to appreciate things like Godiva chocolates, chocolate covered coffee beans, movie tickets, etc.

Please quote from the Quran who was created first man or woman?

2009-04-09T18:29:00.000-07:00

7:189 "O mankind! reverence your Guardian-Lord, who created you from a single person, created, of like nature, His mate, and from them twain scattered countless men and women:- reverence Allah, through whom ye demand your mutual, and the wombs: for Allah ever watches over you."

This verse in my opinion does not make clear that man was created first. Since men, women and mankind is mentioned in the same verse it seems deliberate that it is not mentioned that man was created first.

Adam (Peace Be Upon Him) was created first. Then Eve (Havva), his wife was created from his ribs.

Here are the relevant Qur'an verses:- (1) The similitude of Jesus before Allah is as that of Adam; He created him from dust, then said to him: "Be". And he was.

( , Aal-e-Imran, Chapter 3, Verse 59).

(2) O mankind! reverence your Guardian-Lord, who created you from a single person, created, of like nature, His mate, and from them twain scattered (like seeds) countless men and women:- reverence Allah, through whom ye demand your mutual (rights), and (reverence) the wombs (That bore you): for Allah ever watches over you. (Alu Imran, Chapter 4, Verse 1).

(3) It is He Who created you from a single person, and made his mate of like nature, in order that he might dwell with her (in love). When they are united, she bears a light burden and carries it about (unnoticed). When she grows heavy, they both pray to Allah their Lord, (saying): "If Thou givest us a goodly child, we vow we shall (ever) be grateful." (Al Araf, Chapter 7, Verse 189).

Additional details;- Narrations from the Prophet are explanations to the verses of Holy Qur'an. Here is a narration regarding the creation of the first woman:-

Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah 's Apostle said, "Treat women nicely, for a women is created from a rib, and the most curved portion of the rib is its upper portion, so, if you should try to straighten it, it will break, but if you leave it as it is, it will remain crooked. So treat women nicely." (Book 55, Hadith 548).

Mohammed ibn Ishaq and Iban Abbas narrated that Eve was created from the shortest rib of Adam (PBUH) while he was sleeping and after a while she was clothed with flesh. This why Allah Exalted said, "O mankind! reverence your Guardian-Lord, who created you from a single person, created, of like nature, His mate, and from them twain scattered (like seeds) countless men and women:- reverence Allah, through whom ye demand your mutual (rights), and (reverence) the wombs (That bore you): for Allah ever watches over you." (7:189)!!

((He it is Who created you from a single being, and of the same kind did He make his mate, that he might incline to her))

Am I doing something wrong?

2009-03-13T20:29:00.010-07:00

I have a teacher who always goes around me when handing tests, I am the last one to get one even though I am first.

She doesn't look at me while she is speaking to the class, instead she avoids any eye contact until I look away from her. I know this because I see it in my peripheral vision.

She only asks me hard questions in front of the class, while I am making a speech she interrupts me with those.

She makes grimaces at me and recently she invaded my personal space by sitting in the desk next to me, so she would grade during speechs.

I admit I am a shy person and I never give my input when she's in front of class, but I do talk to her when she's talking to me. I also like to go last in everything and she literally has to call me to get up.

Should I act really friendly towards here and kill her with kindness? I said hello to her when she walked into the class, that took her aback.

I believe she is impressed w/ your intelligence and wants to hold you to a higher standard because she doesn't want you to slack off because your peers might.

She definitely respects you more w/ all that attention. She always wants to challenge you and include you to overcome your shyness or at least get practice.

This sounds like a form of psychological bullying, something you should not have to endure, especially from a teacher!

Being shy or reserved does not make you a bad person or a bad student and your teacher should not be punishing you for not being outgoing or lacking charisma.

I'd recommend speaking to your parent(s) about this or in confidence to your school nurse/psychologist if you have one.

ask her. she most likely won't get you in troucle if you ask her respectfully. and if she does explain to the person in charge of like detention or whatever what you said and how its no disrespectful. When you are asking this teacher why tell all of those things you feel she has been doing

ignore the old female dog, and let her grade u FAIRLY. if she is somehow unfair, go speak with her and if she doesn't change, you go talk to her superior. OR u can take what she gives u and move on

I like the verse in the the Bible that says.....For thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head, and the LORD shall reward thee. Prov. 25:22...............yes be nice.

nfd?/div>

shes being a horrible old witch. shes singling yopu out tell someone and make sure to try and make her lose her job. techers arnt people. trip her up shes a discrece.

Shes a teacher - they're just evil. Try making friends - if not, just try stay on her good side - volunteer to hand the sheets out - you'll get one first that way too

Interesting pedicament,, even if you are shy, I don't know your age, but, I would suggest to be up front about it. Knowledge is better than guessing right. good luck

offer input and volunteer to good early

You may remind her of someone else, or she may have somehow knew your parents. People are strange and it's not worth figuring out. You said you like to go last, so at least one of the things she is doing is working in your favor. Killing her with kindness is great, but give it up if she just gets worse. It's only for a few more months, try to talk to one of your classmates to get their opinion. Maybe one of your classmates will help you out, like you give some kind of sign to get them to get the teachers attention off of you. Good Luck! I am asking a question about a teenager, would be great if you looked it over. advice for rude neighbor. Thanks!

Thanks for your advice! Not much I can do ; )

How do you know death is bad if you

2009-03-13T20:29:00.009-07:00

No need to rush, we'll all find out someday, just saying...

Death is a paradox in my mind. I know it will be either nothing (and nothing to worry about) or something (and so I live on in some form). Either way, there's a benefit to both and yet Woody Allen said it best. "I'm not afraid of death. I just don't want to be there when it happens." My sentiments exactly. Maybe without death, we'll never learn to truly live?

Some say death is but the next big adventure. The fact is, no-one has really died for a stubstantial period of time, then come back alive to tell the living what it was like. Except Jesus, but unfortuanately he was just a carpenter, not a writer. Theres no guarentes with death, but with life your guarrented death.

I think death is only scary if you're not ready to let go of this life that you have lived. The sum of our existence is our experience, to imagine the non-existence of that experience is even worse than hell, that's actual eternal death.

There's nothing 'bad' about death; I don't mind the idea of it at all.

I think it'd be similar to having to leave a good movie half way through.

~

Life is all there is, death is nothing.

Well most people who have lived have died and I never hear them complaining so it can't be that bad

Death is bad because it involves losing someone you love. That's never good.

Phl 1:21 For to me to live [is] Christ, and to die [is] gain.

That's a very good point.

I just really like being alive and I always like it more when I think of the alternative.

You can feel a sense of something, such as a sense of fear, fear is bad?

There is no death. Death was defeated at the cross.

I don't think people are necessarily frightened of death... it is more the method of passing.

Who ever said death was bad

Death is a saviour, not a punishment.

But still, lets raise hell on earth why we have the chance! LOL.

xxx

I have seen it happen to others.

Death can be good or bad....depends where you're going...Heaven or Hell.

death is bad because you no longer exist

I'll let you know when it happens.

Ja.

Do you think its really worth it?

Should i lie to my parents to see a guy? he is not my boyfriend and he is older. but my parents know nothing about him and i can't even tell them about him We only txt but its a lot and stuff. So i am supposed to sneak out at night. and i can't do that.

but i told him to come early and i can just tell my parents i am riding my bike. and then meet him. Do you think its worth this?

like i am like thinking of everything that can go wrong. like if my parents find out or anything? lol

just lie,a dn if they ask, say it wan'st intentional, u were out riding, and bumped into him.

If this is someone you don't really know personally, I wouldn't take the risk. There are a lot of crazy people out there that can do you some serious harm.

If you know him well and think you can live with your parents backlash if they find out then just be safe.

not worth it. save yourself the trouble. if your gut is telling that it is wrong then do not do something you will regret. this guy obviously wants to play on you vulnerability

if you have met him before yeah :D if you havent nope. have fun!

Would you ever do every little thing you are told to do to survive if you were

No. Because I am not a slave and never will be. It is not possible either. To anyone or anything. The tighter the grip the more squeezes out the sides. If they opened their fist there is very little actually left. Being trapped is an illusion. People just give up because they are lazy.

Practicing Shaman... quantum physics rocks.

Yes, aside from hurting other people or killing them. I wouldn't do anything that would violate another person's rights.

Other than that, I think the will to survive is pretty strong. You may even have to violate your own moral code at some point. You do this with the hope that one day you may escape, or better yet, overthrow your oppressor and free everyone else. There will be time later to ponder on the things you had to do and come to terms with them, but at least you will be "free" and alive to do so.

We each do what we must. Hopefully for the greater good.

Probably not, but it would depend on the quality of my "enslaved" life and the "little things' I'd have to do to survive.

Life for the sake of surviving is not enough for me. If there is no quality of life, I'd just as soon not be here.

Absolutely not...in d such a case, I'd welcome death, first. And courageously, though it may frighten me...

F u c k no! I'd rather die than be enslaved to a cause I don't believe in, by people who think they're so much better than the rest o the human race.

xxx

I would do everything I could do to ESCAPE... More like Forest Gump, RUN FOREST RUN...AND DON'T LOOK BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'd do it but all the while I'd be thinking of a way to get out by any means necessary.

I've never met a slave so I don't know?

How far could..........?

Not far enough to suit me. I'm sick to death of sharing this planet with him.

What did Jesus mean in John 8: 56?

2009-03-13T20:29:00.005-07:00

"Your Father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad."

John 8:56 Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad.

Isaac was a type of Christ.

Hebrews 11:17 By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son,

18 Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called:

19 Accounting that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he received him in a figure.

That is the way he "saw" Christ's day.

I always enjoy Adam Clark on verses that are vague.

Joh 8:56

Abraham rejoiced to see my day - Or, he earnestly desired to see my day; , from , very much, and , I leap - his soul leaped forward in earnest hope and strong expectation that he might see the incarnation of Jesus Christ. The metaphor appears to be taken from a person who, desiring to see a long-expected friend who is coming, runs forward, now and then jumping up to see if he can discover him. There is a saying very like this in Sohar Numer fol. 61: Abraham rejoiced because he could know, and perceive, and cleave to the Divine Name. The Divine name is Yehovah; and by this they simply mean God himself.

John 8:56

Abrahamyour 'father'with jubilant faith looked down the corridors of history and saw my day coming. He saw it and cheered." -the message

John 8:56

Your father Abraham rejoiced at the thought of seeing my day; he saw it and was glad." -NIV

Abraham looked toward the day that Jesus would be born and rejoiced when it came

Abraham believed in Jesus in Genesis 15. Then was it accounted to Abraham for righteousness.

The only way to be saved is by believing in Jesus alone for salvation, without adding ANY of your own works:

Romans 4:5 "But to him that works not, but believes on him that justifies the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness."

Salvation is a free gift.

Abraham, whose mortal life antedated that of Jesus by nearly two millenniums, saw in vision the ministry of Christ and rejoiced in the knowledge that salvation and redemption would come in and through our Lord's atoning sacrifice. Undoubtedly this was recorded in some ancient scripture now lost to the knowledge of men. From the writings of Paul we know that Abraham had the gospel (Gal. 3:8), and from the account in the Book of Abraham we learn that Jehovah appeared to Abraham and gave him both gospel and priesthood promises.

Jesus was referring to the visions of Abraham from God, where Abraham was SHOWN the future generations to come....

Verse 58 is the answer. He was (came into existence) before Abraham was born. I guess he heard it from God Himself. He is the " I am" of this chapter.

Abraham looked forward to redemption through Him.

When Christ was born, Abraham celebrated in Heaven...

He left a subliminal message:

"LOL they'll believe in this".

Is it lame to send someone a

2009-03-13T20:29:00.004-07:00

There's a guy I like at school and I just found out his myspace profile, so I want to send him a message telling him I like him and to see if he is interested. I'm not gonna ask him out or anything I just wanna know if he is gay (I'm a guy) and if he is single. Is it okay to do this via myspace or should I face him in real life and ask?

It's ok to send a secret admirer letter if you're in the fourth grade, otherwise isn't not productive. If you send it anonymously, you won't be able to find out if he likes you or not, and he's not likely to disclose that he's gay to a stranger. If you're telling him it's you, I think you could send him a straight forward note or tell him your feelings in person. But beware, if you're not out, this WILL out you. Good luck.

Definitely don't. I know this sounds horrible, but you're still in school (I'm guessing high school). For all you know, he could use it against you in any way. He could show all your friends, everyone in the whole school, makes millions of copies of it, it's not worth it. If you wanna know, it's up to you to ask him in person.

no sir dont do it!

its not really lame; its more just not a good idea.

like that one guy said, your crush could use it against you. there are just too many ways for things to go wrong if you use that route.

i would try to find out through his friends. that's probably the safest thing to do.

oh! here is one kind of, "investigatory", thing you could do. On their myspace profile, look for their orientation. if it is not visible, there is a chance that this person is not straight.

(where i live, being LGBT is frowned upon. so on my myspace, instead of saying that i am gay, i just put, 'no answer.')

good luck!

You should try to find out via his friends

you can't tell by the way he is whether he is gay or not?

does he hang around with lot of girls? does he dress like every other guy? is there any sign of him being gay?

dont send email he could use it to out you.....to the whole school family members etc..... If your not worried about that then go for it.

No that would be sweet!

If anyone did that to me they would automatically earn extra points.

...and yes there is a point system.

lol
