I decided my sexual preference on what I believe to be right.

America's problem is that the government has a responsibility and a desire that conflict. The responsibility is to create just laws that will protect the people from evil, to simplify ...

I don't see how you got that obscenity out of that confusing passage. Forgive me if I'm mistaken, but isn't the NIV the one that was "simplified" to help people ...

How do YOU know they dont have developed religions and beliefs? You cant understand what they're saying, perhaps they ARE debating. ROFLOLMAO! You have just as much proof- less, even- ...

I actually agree with Qi, for once. It's really not much different than sending kids to daycare while the parents are both working, except that they have a real home ...

So you think compassion isn't higher law that an eye for an eye? It doesn't matter who was more inspired; the Law of Moses was meant for people who weren't ...
