:?

August says that website "has the most extensive info on the web" dealing with the Shroud; I don't what makes it same-old, same-old. If you do ask any expert, ask him if he read that Thermochimica Acta magazine.

UPDATE: 1988 Carbon 14 tests are false. Recently, the study I mentioned earlier on the Shoud's 1988 carbon dating tests have finished. The conclusions were printed in Thermochimica Acta , a scientific journal, in January 2005. Turns out the old tests are invalid, and the Shroud may very well be fro...

colors, I meant what is your specific stance on abortion. Everyone is being kinda wishy washy on it. Some say: "Life begins at conception" "Life might begin a little after conception" "We may never know" I'm sorry if that offends anyone, but that's what I see. I'm kinda...

vvart , If you really believe you should just do what you feel is right, then you have no case. A growing number of Americans are starting to accept abortion again, and many believe that it's for very moral reasons. I admit that I don't know the secrets of the soul, but it sounds like a lot of you ...

Mastermind , I referenced those passages a while back on page 1, but I also wrote: "Of course these could be merely metaphors--some have suggested that these passages refer to the creation of the state of Israel, so it's not necessarily a human's flesh." But they still stir possibilities,...

No hard feelings - peace, man. 8) Anyway, what is your position on abortion, and why do you feel this way? I have given passages that I think hints at the possibility of no soul until birth, after the baby has taken his first breath. Here are some of them: Ezekiel 37:5-8 (KJV) 5 Thus saith the Lord ...

colors,

You can't change another person's mind by telling them how wrong they are. You might be wrong, and I might be wrong as well, but talking about how wrong someone is won't solve anything.

August, About the Third World, I'm sure if poor Africans could afford abortions there would be less of a problem. But the real problem is (hope you're not Catholic :P ) the lack of contraceptives and promotion of safe sex - a problem we have here as well. What God intends, He intends. It's not my pl...

Mastermind , I think I've got it! Fear that you think about is part of your soul, but more involuntary stuff is just your body--like how premeditated murder is a great sin, and automatically hitting someone that caused you to instantly go into a rage is more about a person's genetic predisposition ...

That's interesting Mastermind ; maybe it does connect to the soul. But maybe it's only because the soul hasn't completely left the body? Like, it may just be the little bit of soul left in you that keeps you from dying, and you're still connected to the body with all it's faults. vvart , Sorry I bro...

I'm not confusing the two :? . Instincts IMHO are programed into your brain when your brain developes, and that they consist of urges, preferences, reactions, etc. They're just another part of that machine known as your body, and they can be useful to you, or sometimes they can be a problem. It's pa...

Colors , I've been on many message boards, and sometimes there's this one guy who has crazy ideas about stuff, and then I go nuts wondering why someone thinks this. Then he says, "Oh, by the way, I'm twelve." And I'm like "Oh." If you believe that humans don't have instinct, I g...

I'm 20. If you don't mind me asking, how old are you?

Sorry about the overlong Adam creation (and I think he was still covered in mud, but exposed enough for him to breath). My point was that Adam was formed, like a fetus is formed ; air went into Adam's lungs, much like a fetus breathing for the first time ; and after Adam breathed, he lived, much lik...

I would also like to disagree on something. I think it's safe to say that humans definitely have instincts. Our fight or flight instinct, our instinct to hunt, our instinct to be social, our instinct to be scared of the dark, and our instinct to spread our seed to as many girls as possible. When you...
