so, would a democracy where those living in areas of less crime or owning more land have stronger voting pull be more desirable?


I think we had that in slavery days, but we werent perfectly democratic than either,,,,


IM kind of confused what the issue is supposed to be?

smh

the only other version I find states that there was not enough evidence, as opposed to the Judge refusing to see it

there was a 'grainy' video (according to the other version)


,,I will wait for an actual transcript of what happened before I pick which commentary to land upon,,,

strange for several reasons

mark martin doesnt seem like much of a muslim name

such a ruling would be easily appealed if it happened JUST as posted or recounted

I can find no secondary source to back up the story, I find the same story REPEATED almost verbatim by many commentary type sources,,,

It has nothing to do with gender differences, it's the fact that some people (read: the religious right) refuse to acknowledge that we're not all the same, don't have the same likes, dislikes and attractions. They are trying to force everyone into their little box like they know what's best for the person more than the person itself does.

People are different, quit trying to change those who don't need changing and get over it.

I will agree with you on government involvement though, we are asking the wrong question here.



thats true, and if marital laws were only based in 'attraction' there would be alot of other sanctioned marriage types

but, by my understanding anyhow, it is based in family FOUNDATION for generations of human beings, which begins with a man and woman making a bond (whether it lasts one night or a lifetime)

marriage encourages us to put a priority on trying to give those generations a 'lifetime' foundation,,,



the issue of age requirement takes into account the ability for someone to truly 'consent' to being a part of such a foundation and the issue of relations takes into account the 'risk' physically to the generations which may be created, although the differences there are highly overstated in general and should be removed as well if we are to truly all be 'equal'

I tried to tell you that Harmony.

Notice how I'm now overlooked?

It's a troll.

He says he can't get a straight answer..
..even though he's gotten one five times over.

So, don't waste your energy.

for my own example

I may have FAITH that there was someone named COLUMBUS who came to the americas

now, if there REALLY Was this columbus, my faith would happen to be based in a fact

if there never was, my faith would happen to not be based in fact


so MsHarmony... you need faith in order to believe that humans exist named Columbus? ...so do you also believe that you will get toss into the lake of fire if you didn't have Faith in Columbus?

I'm trying to figure out why you need Faith in Columbus



Im not sure where I posted any of the above

I dont know how to re post in any simpler terms,,,,


are you placing your Faith in Columbus...or are you placing your Faith in those that wrote the books that you read about Columbus



the authors


right....the same with the bible..since you never observed or experience God ...and then make a claim of Faith...then you have to place that Faith in the authors of the bible and not God


that would only be true if my ONLY reference was the bible, which it is not or if I had never had an experience with God

example: I have faith in the authors of math books who say two plus two is four, because I have PERSONAL Experiences which back up that information


I have faith in the authors of the Bible, because my experiences (according to my perception) back up the validity of a God


if someone wrote a book about magical spaghetti, it would be hard for me to have faith in because of its UNLIKELINESS and my absence of personal experiences with spaghetti to validate it is magical,,,


MsHarmony...I knew that Columbus book deal would get you to change your testimony ...first you claim that those that never observed or experienced God would need Faith to believe...and now you're claiming that you have Faith because you had a personal experience with God ...

like I said you're double talking and playing both sides of the fence

you can never get a straight answer about Faith from you guys







whatever floats your boat dude

the issue keeps changing, from faith in general, to faith in columbus specifically, to faith in authors specifically, to faith in God specifically

life isnt so simple, pick an issue and stick with it and things may make more sense,,,

someone who can be a good parent is a mandate, as I have children

someone older than thirty is also a mandate, as my eldest is 19 himself and needs to view this person as a father figure


someone mature, responsible, considerate, and God fearing are also mandates, as I believe children learn alot through example of their elders,,,,


other than that, preferences are taller than 5foot10, height/weight proportionate, broad shoulders, healthy skin and healthy smile

,, just preferences, not mandates,,,

Do you think people only get pregnant when they're trying to get pregnant?


I think they get pregnant mostly when they arent taking the correct precautions to NOT get pregnant,,,,


just like most people arent tRYING to get fat when they dont treat their bodies in the correct way,, but most people who take timee to MAKE SURE They treat their bodies correctly do not get fat,,,

and Im sure some people try to suck out their own fat in weird ways, but that doesnt mean those going through surgeries shouldnt be receiving the correct information about risks and expectations,,,
to be honest this is just a waste of time,as i've stated before,if it becomes illegal cause of the conservatives pushing it into law,fine.It still won't stop women from doing it.So whatever.



agreed

it wont stop some women from doing it anyway

laws have never STOPPED people from doing things, just deterred SOME from doing it,,,,

'truth' is truth, this is true

but 'truth' that has not been personally observed or experienced, does require 'faith' to believe

but not 'faith' to make it truth


so MsHarmony...using your words...so those that never personally observed or experienced God would require "Faith" to believe?




yes


so Faith is belief....not fact




asked and answered


faith, hope, despair, are all states of being , either reinforced or lessened by perception and 'truth'


which may or may not be based in 'fact'




made or made not be based in fact? ...sounds like double talking ...so perhaps an example is needed to clear things up

so let's use the example of the child molesting priests that perhaps claim that what they they were doing to the children was a matter of Faith

so what would Faith be in this example ...




not double talking, but talking about something that has an array of possibilities,,, (generalizing)

as to the priests , I dont underatnd the question


for my own example

I may have FAITH that there was someone named COLUMBUS who came to the americas

now, if there REALLY Was this columbus, my faith would happen to be based in a fact

if there never was, my faith would happen to not be based in fact

Find where God said ppl to kill other ppl in his name ?


God told Abraham to kill his son Isaac as a sacifice

It was a test.

Abraham failed (but God judged him not).



God gave Abraham a direct command to kill his son but instead
Abraham chose to listen to an angel that told him not to do it...Abraham loved his son more than he loved God

probably another reason why God grieved


or maybe not

The angel of the LORD called to Abraham from heaven a second time and said, "I swear by myself, declares the LORD, that because you have done this and have not withheld your son, your only son, I will surely bless you and make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as the sand on the seashore. Your descendants will take possession of the cities of their enemies, and through your offspring all nations on earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed me." (Genesis 22:10-12, 15


but it's the fact that Abraham disobeyed a direct command from God...but yet followed the direct command of an angel




an angel of the LORD,,,angels cannot bless, this makes most sense in context to be representing GODS word,,,


you mean an angel like Satan representing God's word .....this is why a direct command from God should only be rescinded by a direct command from God
