Top 6 Incestuous Relationships In The Bible
Religious scholars say that God suspended the laws of incest in the early days of man in order to ensure that man spread on the earth. In the words of the commentators of the Douay Rheims Bible: “God with such marriages in the beginning of the world, as mankind could not otherwise be propagated.” Despite that, these tales are not all simply matters of procreation – particularly item 1.
5 Arguments For and Against the Existence of God
Religious topics abound on Listverse and they are frequently the most commented upon. It has been some time since the last one so it seems like the time is ripe for another – and this one is a great one for discussion. Here we present five arguments in favor of the existence of God, and the counterargument for it. Feel free to comment on the veracity (or your opinion of) each but remember to keep calm and argue reasonably.
Nicely put together.
I miss Buttercup!
It has been almost nine years since my parents had to put Buttercup down due to throat cancer AND, by canine standards, extreme old age. She was 18 years old. She was a ten week old RUNT when we got her from her breeder. Since she was the runt, she was literally the last puppy sold.
Dad was the last person of us to enter the shop the breeder owned. He knew Buttercup was OUR dog as soon as he laid eyes on me and Mom petting the puppy… .
What rankles me, still, was that I was not able to say my own goodbyes to her because I was still in a two-and-a-half week long coma when they had to do it.
Buttercup, I guess you can consider this, though long-delayed, to be my goodbye. I MISS YOU, SWEETIE!
McCormick St. Patrick's Day Giveaway (closed)
Can you believe we are already gearing up for St. Patrick’s day?! I can’t. But I can say I am so excited to announce a new giveaway. A McCormick Giveaway!
Last October, McCormick was kind enough to send me and 2 of my readers a fun Halloween kit, full of baking supplies. It was such a fun giveaway and the box was filled with so many great baking items.
