Vanakkam,

I heard someone say once that clitoris was like an atrophied penis for females...It's capable of erection too :0

I can only find an explanation: we are all created both male and female :D

Ok what.

You are awesome btw. I died of laughter at the nipple parts xD

Except that if you actually observed the first video it clearly shows the dog coming to the rescue of another dog and actually dragging the injured dog off the road in a careful manner....The dog obviously came to the injured dog's rescue in an attempt to save the injured dog.....Your hubris is the think that makes you "believe" you are some special (creation) and this is far from reality. We, the human animal, are not so different than any other animal on the planet......This is why when it comes to sex...we have a lot in common with other species. Homosexuality is natural.....And until someone can explain to me why human males have nipples (serving NO purpose)...I'll continue to believe that in some respects.....man is both male and female.


Animals kill to eat, human dont.

what is your opinion about homosex?
do you agree with it or not?
is it prohibited in your religion?

Opinion: Doesn't bother me. Indeed I don't understand and get annoyed by other intolerance of it.
Agree or not: An odd question. It's like asking whether or not I agree with the sky being blue. Some people are gay and some people aren't. I don't see there is to agree or disagree with.
Prohibited: I'm not religious but if I was I'd hope I would be able to overcome the bigotry which seems to be prevalent in any religions/cultures.

Well, he said let the dead bury the dead, to abandon ties to ownership, and to follow him instead of family.

If your family dont accept you just because you serve Jesus, faithful do not abandon Jesus. That's why it is essential to marry who has the same goal as yours. It is problem in Okinawa after they become Christian and they get many unkind word from their relatives and they give up being Jesus' followers.

Besides, Jesus was himself homeless. You can be homeless and be salt and light. I once met a wise homeless woman who was more salt and light than many home-owners I've met.
Jesus could perform miracles. We are not miracle workers. If you can provide your family being homeless, go for it.

We need discernment. Jesus used all kinds of methods to preach.
Indeed; and living in a life of misery is not something I think would be something that Jesus would want, as someone who came to heal the sick.

Take a quick look at Matthew 19 again. :)

The point isn't that you have to live in involuntary celibacy because your wife and yourself have separated, it's that you're supposed to heal the relationship instead of divorcing in rage or political reasons. It's much more detailed and nuanced than this, but it's 11pm. :p

There may even be Aramaic subtleties that are lost upon the translation; for example, it may not even be meant to be literally taken as unfaithfulness, but ones of rebelliousness or even idolatry. We simply don't know.

In addition, take note of what Jesus' disciples said in response to this, and his response to them; "The one who can accept this should accept it.". It's not a commandment. Can you accept it? I know I couldn't. Don't get bogged down on minor details like this anyway; remember the two greatest commandments.

Christians do and Jesus does. I would bring the reference if you want on.
Not all do (trust me on this :)) and we have no way of knowing whether or not Jesus took him as an actual opponent of God. Considering Jesus grew up as a Jewish lad then I doubt it because Judaism has no conception of an opponent of God, much less Satan, who is considered to be an agent of God. It would be interesting for another thread. Please feel free to open one up and link it so I can read and contribute. :)

My spouse chose to separate because he did not want to life for Christ. He does not want to give up worldy way of living.

If we dishonor Jesus' teachings, we are disobedient.

It is not my decision to separate, it was his. So I cannot do anything about it.

Some animals kill for pleasure. Even when they've just eaten or aren't hungry.

Well that's an assumption. We've no idea if a animal gets any pleasure from the act of killing.

How do you know that?

Have either of you even seen a cat? Know what one is? :rolleyes: Watched the way it plays with a bug or a mouse, batting it around or carrying it in its mouth to bat it around some more until it is dead, losing interest and then just leaving the dead thing where it lay while it walks off to clean and preen itself? :areyoucra Yes, animals kill things just for the sheer giggles and fun of it.

And how would you know they don't know they are killing something? Their mothers teach them to hunt from the time they are kittens. They are using the same tactics. Using the same claws, the same teeth. You just think they are stupid? You extremely underestimate cats and animals in general.
