A knife is a very personal weapon. S tabbing someone is personal, you have to be close to do it. When you do it 79 times. Is pure rage. That teen is not going to spend 1 day in jail. She is going to a mental institution for a couple of decades. If her lawyer can prove that her religion have something to do with the rage and murder, a couple of months.

Prayers that God answers. Any examples?
by punkofnice inwhen i believed in god i tried not to pray for anything selfish.. after a while i began to think that a lot of things i was asking my imaginary friend in the sky for were selfish for some reason.. i do not ever remember a single thing i prayed for ever being answered.
if there was the appearance of an answer it was because i did mental gymnastics to make it fit the delusion that god had actually answered me.
there was never an obvious message/answer from god.

This is something I saved in my computer a couple of years back, I am NOT the author. I been trying to find his/her name but all links are dead. Anyway:
Prepare thyself, he who reads this, to tremble and quake before the Incredible Word of God, as written by THE LORD HIMSELF!
I hate hopes and I hate dreams! They violate My Divine Plan! How dare you humans lounge around and dream of ways to thwart My Divine Plan?
If I made you a gravedigger, then stay a gravedigger and be glad I don’t have you arrested. Don’t spend your days praying of becoming a porno star.*
Many people start bugging Me with this shit from a very young age. For example, I recently had a young boy who wanted to become a pilot when he grew up. But I’d already decided to give him awful 20/60 vision. But did that stop him? No. That dumbass spent his whole life bugging Me with his prayers to become a pilot. And yet he ended up becoming a pizza delivery boy with a acute addiction to Robitussin and Jack Daniels anyway, just as I’d always intended.
All these little hopes and dreams and all the wishing and the begging is just pathetic! I don’t much appreciate that which is pathetic.
Life is not fair, ok? It’s not fair, and I never said it would be fair.
Was life ever fair in The Bible? NO! Some men are born to be slaves of other men, some women are born to be raped by their fathers, and that’s just the way it is! Some things will never change. I am what I am and it is what it is!
Take care,

BIBLE CONTRADICTIONS
by elder-schmelder inhttp://www.infidels.org/library/modern/jim_meritt/bible-contradictions.html.
if you believe that the bible is gods word, don't you get sick of making excuses for all the contradictions?.

“What sort of answer would satisfy you? It is clear that the answer given takes into account the context of the verses, and the audiences of the individual books. I have no issue with how this alleged contradiction is explained. Why do you have an issue with?” - XJW4EVR
The person admits that it is prudent for us to test things and to weigh the evidence of the things we are asked to believe. But then said that we have to remember that in context, Paul is personifying love. And the characteristics which can be found in love are a propensity to trust. Love does not approach things with suspicion. If something can, in good conscience be believed, then it ought to be believed.
Don’t you think that this is the problem with the WBTS? Followers think that the GB are personifying love and the characteristics which can be found in love are a propensity to trust. Therefore they don’t think that they have to “test all things” and are following man. And now those people are members of a dangerous mind control group.
“Ah, yes, there it is, the skeptics ad hominem. We skeptics are so much smarter, and you Christians are a bunch of bithering idiots. Glad to see that. It actually causes my trust in the Bible to grow (1 Cor. 1:18-31).” - XJW4EVR
I don’t claim to be smarter that the next person, and never said that Christians are a bunch of idiots, but I am glad that you quoted 1 Cor. 1:18-31.
1 Cor. 1:19 read that wisdom is not a good thing, but Proverbs 4:7 read: “Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.”
1 Cor. 1:21 read that it pleases god to be foolish, but Psalm 5:5 read: “The foolish shall not stand in thy sight” and Ephesians 5:15 read: “See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise.”
1 Cor. 1:27 read that god use the foolish things of the word to confuse the wise, but 1 Cor. 14:33 read: “god it’s not the author of confusion.”
“Just because these horrid activities are recorded in the Bible doesn't mean that it is given a wink by God.” - XJW4EVR
2 Timothy 3:15–17
With all due respect, do I get to pick and choose with word is inspired by god and with word is not. Can I say that 1 John 3:11 is not inspired, but it’s safe to say that Luke 14:26, Matthew 10:34, Matthew 10:21 are inspired? How does this work?

“So tell me, Mad Giant, do you know what the Christian response to these supposed contradictions? Just curious.” - XJW4EVR
If you click a contradiction, it will send you to a table that compares the verses. A couple of them have an external link at the bottom of the table. The links will send you to an external response.
Personally, the responses posted by the Christian sources are kind of crappy. Here is an example:
http://www.lookinguntojesus.net/ata20040606.htm
Should we believe all things?
1 Corinthians 13:7 says we should, but Proverbs 14:15 and 1 Thessalonians 5:21 say we should only believe that which evidence warrants belief in. Is there a contradiction?
RESPONSE:
Certainly, it is prudent for us to test things and to weigh the evidence of the things we are asked to believe. This is the idea presented in both Proverbs 14:15 and 1 Thessalonians 5:21. However, I suggest that the words of Paul in 1 Corinthians 13:7 do not contradict this, but rather deal with a different aspect of believing.
Paul is certainly not telling the Corinthians to be gullible people, for he clearly told the Thessalonians that they should test all things and cling to that which was good. It must be remembered that in context, Paul is personifying love. Among the characteristics which can be found in love is a propensity to trust. Love does not approach things with suspicion. If something can, in good conscience be believed, then it ought to be believed. It is not a characteristic of love to manifest distrust in others.
There is no contradiction.Are you satisfied with this answer? I am not.
"By the way, this list is just as sophomoric as the previous list." - XJW4EVR
I am really sorry that you just see a dull list. I see a pattern.
For those who believe that every syllable in the bible is from god’s mouth.
The book is written by an omniscient being that is suppose to leave you with a sense of wonder. If you are reading a book written by the all-powerful, all-knowing, all-loving creator of the universe, wouldn't you expect to be stunned by the brilliance, the clarity and the wisdom of the author?
Yet, when we open the Bible and actually read it, this is what you’ll find:
Verses descriptive or advocating suicide, incest, bestiality, sexual activity in a violent context, murder, revenge, contradictions and human rights violations. That may cause delusions hallucinations, decreased cognitive and objective reasoning abilities, hatred; bigotry and violence.
Of course, this is only my opinion.
Take care,
Ismael
