14 AnswersPolls & Surveys1 decade agoHow honored would Mahatma Gandhi feel if he learned a luxury fountain pen has been issued in his name?
http://www.usatoday.com/money/world/2009-10-02-mon...
Montblanc, a German Luxury Goods dealer released the $25,000 fountain pen to honor the man of simplicity and peace. I think I will take two!
Do you think they will honor him by sending any money to continue his memory and life lessons?
Happy 140th, Great Soul.
7 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoIs it time for "George Tiller's Law?"?
Drug property is taken from drug dealers. Murder property should be taken from criminal churches. If a murderer or attempted murderer is trained at a church to kill, that church or mosque should be closed. My guess is the "God-Damning" preachers who are the source of public violence lose their buildings, congregations will stop the violence before it starts.

11 AnswersHoroscopes1 decade agoM87's Jet is 5,000 LY long. In a story today, HST watched it brighten, dim and brighten again in only 7 years?
How is that possible if the speed of light is truly the ultimate speed limit?
Even the smaller area of brightening is over 100 light years across.
6 AnswersAstronomy & Space1 decade agoDoes it bother any Christians that our "AMEN" comes from the Egyptian god's name amon?
And that your religion has borrowed much from pagan religions. Your bible said Jesus was born when the lambs were being born (spring-time) yet Jesus has the god Mithras' birthday of December 25 and was born of a virgin just like Mithras. You know the Egyptian sun religion is a pack of lies and Mithras' religion is a pack of lies. Why do you think your religious leaders (who take money to build giant churches and who molest little boys) are the ones telling the truth?
15 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoShould you help guide an errant pastor, priest, rabbi, or imam with the collection basket?
When a minister shouts God-Dam America, Do you put the checkbook back in your pocket? When a priest is convicted of child molestation, do you stop the tithe? When an imam loudly calls for American blood, do you bless your pocket with money that would have gone to the mosque? How do you reign in the bad religidiots that are in charge of God's house?
11 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoWhen Saul swore to destroy the church of Jesus, did he keep his word?
Jesus had a simple church where people would gather for social discourse in homes and supper halls. When Saul got hold of it, the keys to Heaven and Earth he gave to Peter were keys to keep people out of the church Peter and Paul did not like. Didn't he keep his oath to destroy the church Jesus made? "Wherever two or more are gathered in my name, there so am I." Jesus said. But Saul made it so there was a church with doors kept locked by a priest paid for by collection baskets. What would Jesus do? What did he do and why don't Christians see the difference between Jesus' church and St Paul's Church?

5 AnswersAstronomy & Space1 decade agoIs God wrathful for no reason?
When God had Hagar and Ishmael banished to the desert (Abraham's first born son, for God's sake!) and started the war between Jews and Arabs that continues to this day, doesn't it bother anyone when God does stuff like that? During the crusades story tellers on both sides tell of the streets of Jerusalem running like rivers of human blood. Why is God so blood thirsty?
15 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoDoesn't it bother people when God demands sacrifice of humans or animals?
I mean when God had Abraham force Isaac to carry wood to a stone altar and then Abraham was told to bind Isaac, lay Isaac on the altar, then cut his throat and burn his body for a sacrifice for God? If your father did that to you and told you it was God's command, what would you think of God, even if you survived? What does God do with all of the lives that have been sacrificed to him? If sacrifice is the right thing to do, why don't we do it still?
6 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoDoesn't it bother people believing the bible where it couldn't be true?
I mean like when wives for Cain and Able just "show-up" without being created or anything. Here is the story of creation and boom, extra people show-up. Either they were marrying their own sisters or the story is false, which is it? And why doesn't it bother people to have these incongruities in a "divinely inspired, 100% true" story of creation?
17 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoIs Yahoo answers an "input only" computer system?
Since questions are asked over and over, (did the Apollo moon landings really happen? is a good example) does that mean nobody ever reads an answer to a question?
1 AnswerYahoo Answers1 decade agoCan someone explain how a jet of matter can be measured at a speed > C and still not violate Einstein's rule?
Most superluminal jets are outside our galaxy. But, right in our neighborhood in the trifid nebula is a jet that has angular movement > 500,000 km/second. How can that be?
See:
http://oposite.stsci.edu/pubinfo/pr/1999/42/conten...
for a hubble picture of the jet. How can such a thing be possible and not violate the maxim that the speed of light is the maximum speed? Also, when you look at the picture, notice there is a foretrail that shows this jet of matter is led by a jet of some transparent substance that actully makes the jet twice as long as the original jet's measured speed. Can someone explain please?

1 AnswerAstronomy & Space1 decade agoGet out your binoculars and go look at comet Holmes that brightened more than a million times brighter in just
24 hours. I think it was hit by an asteroid. Why do you think it got so bright? Look NE tonight and see the extra star in Perseus. It is easy to see the fuzzy star in binoculars.
