A little joke just to welcome everyone back after the weekend :-

The Priest Who Could Not Lie
=============================
A distinguished looking young lady is on a flight returning from Switzerland. She finds herself seated next to a priest and asks "Excuse me father, may I ask a favor of you?"

"Well of course Miss, what can I do for you?" he replies.
"Here's the dilemma, I purchased for myself, a superbly sophisticated electronic armpit hair remover. I paid a lot of money for it. I really went well over the limits set forth by Customs, and I fear they will confiscate it from me. Could you perhaps secret it through Customs for me under your robes?"

"I certainly could my dear. Only I must warn you I really am not ever able to lie..."

"You have such an honest face father, surely they will never ask any questions of you" and with that she hands him the hair remover.
After landing they proceed through Customs and it becomes the father's turn in line.

"Father, do you have anything to declare?" asks the Custom's officer.
"From the top of my head to my waist I have nothing to declare my son."
Finding this answer a little strange the custom's officer proceeds to ask, "And from the waist to the floor, what do you have to declare?"
The father replies, "I have a marvelous little instrument destined to be used on a woman, but which has never yet been used..."
Roaring with laughter the Custom's officer says, "Go right through father. Next!"

Since on the subject of Catholic priest, it reminds me of something I read in the Bible, Genesis on creation of Man.
God created Adam and after finding that he was lonely decided to create a woman from Adam's rib - Eve. Thus the 1st man & woman in the world.
Between Adam & Eve they had 3 sons. Eventually the 3 sons had their own offsprings and so forth, so forth.
Poser : How did Adam's & Eve's sons have children of their own ?

Adam & Eve does not exist. It is created by someone's imagination to trap the gullible mind. They are as real as Mork & Mindy.

Let's assume that Adam/Eve's existence were factual - it must be, whatever names they may be called. There must be the earliest person(s) here - whether by Creation by whoever or by pure evolution.
So, if we take the Bible's version as correct - ie there was only 1 woman for a start, there is a good explanation for her 3 sons having children of their own.

Blasphemy ?
Not so. Paperdoll doesn't believe in Adam/Eve - that's not blasphemous.
I do believe in the creation of MAN but not necessarily by the Bible God. Therefore blasphemy doesn't apply to both PaperDoll & I. Further, I haven't said anything blasphemous as yet.
Problem with one that is too engrossed in religion beliefs is that his mind becomes closed, look at things not with an open mind, behaves immaturely and cannot improve in his outlook. On the other hand, I believe that those who have a religion-practitioners are taught to be good citizens. But whether they actually turn out to be good citizens is uncertain.
I think I have stated before that religions hamper progress.
Back to your allegation of blashemy - What has been stated so far is the truth according to the Bible. Contradict me pl if u think what has been stated is incorrect (not blasphemous).
After that we can proceed further. But doubt u wanna hear - u are too frightened to listen - because u are too assumptious !
Hahaha !

Religion is a very personal thing. It is best that we don't talk about it. I have no religion. But I can accept friends from any faith. Its their belief so be it. As long as they don't preach to me, I am OK.

Actually what I wanna raise is not about religion. On the contrary it is more about human nature and attitude and its changes.
Just using this as an example.
Anyway, u might be right - most people are not ready for such discussion.
