Does anyone know where exactly the underpants bomber was injured?

I was watching a documentary about the underpants bomber (that Muslim guy who tried to blow up an American plane on Christmas Day 2009) and they were very coy about the guys injuries.

A re-enactment they did seemed to suggest that although the bomb was smuggled aboard in his underpants, when it caught fire (it thankfully didnt explode), it was strapped to his thigh.

I was very disappointed to hear this.

The documentary said he was badly burnt, but didnt say where.

Does anyone know if he was burnt on the leg or in his private areas? One of those answers would make me happer than the other - that there really is justice in this cruel world... :-)

Thanks x
apparantly he was burned on his hands, thigh, and genitalia if that makes you feel better lol
His bum.

ATHEISTS: If your beloved Darwinism THEORY is indeed true and gays are allowed to marry, let me ask you this?

The laughable unproven theory of evolution states that we evolved from apes, and completely new species not created by the Almighty God have formed from no where, correct?



Meanwhile, as gay marriage becomes legal, they will continue to have sexual intercourse. Since God created male and female, and ONLY male and female (X AND Y) should be having sex, but now men are having sex with men (X AND X) and women are having sex with women (Y AND Y).



Are you saying that within the next century a new gender will form from nowhere (Z)?
You are very smart i asked that in bio class and got kicked out!
Wow, it

Christians, did you know that you are the main contributing factor in my becoming an atheist?

The circular reasoning, logical fallacies and strawman arguments that you all are so fond of is what caused me to really start to question the validity of my beliefs. I was debating a young earth creationist about evolution and trying to convince him that evolution and Christianity were not mutually exclusive by using the order of events in the biblical creation story when it became clear to me that the god of the bible is not the loving and caring god that I grew up with, and he is not good or deserving of love and worship. In fact, it became even clearer to me just how evil and sadistic

ATHEISTS: Do you realize that our savior Jesus Christ has already come down to save us? I urge you to repent?

Jesus Christ will come back to Earth, but not in his same form; he shall not as easily identifiable, Jesus Christ, not as a man, but as a talented human in which others shall provoke. It will be difficult to tell his gender, but he will be very gifted. He will take over the world, faster than anyone has ever done. He shall return to save us. His name will be Lady Gaga. Some will not believe. Others will be condemned to the fiery pits of hell. And thus the true test of the Bible: does gender, race, or sexuality matter? The answer is no! Those who doubted this will go to hell! Praise the Gaga! Praise her!

Matthew 24:23-28.
P-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-oker face! P-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-oker face!

How many Christians are aware that the Bible is a plagiarized mash up of ancient mythology?

I find it hard to believe that anyone who has read the Epic of Gilgamesh could not see the many parallels between it and the Bible. And that is just the tip of the iceberg.
Probably a lot. However, they are scared to discard belief in the whole mess because of the Hell Threat.

Why am i considered shallow ?

i do think that looks are important and i wont deny it if asked and i take pride in always looking good. but im not saying that looks are the only thing that matter ! i just have to be attracted to someone i cant just date a guy who i am not attracted to but i have been called shallow and i want to know do people not care if they are attracted to the person and do they only care about personalitys or do looks matter to?



because looks matter to me.
Actually, no one can control who or what type they are attracted to...that is set long ago, and believe it or not, will change with time. I suspect you may be a bit self centered, but time cures that one for everyone! No big deal. I suspect the ones who call you shallow are the ones you have not been attracted to...very common feeling in

Full coverage would probably be about 200 monthly

Liability only would probably be about 100 monthly

just a guess. location, company, and driving record play a factor as well

Shadow ghost figure? Silhouette of a man? What is it!?

I used to see a man walking down my hallway and peeking into my room all the time. (Every night all night long). Whenever I looked at it, it got really mad and one time it tightened my blanket around me. It was weird because I wanted to go the the bathroom but when I sat up and started to go to the bathroom, it stopped walking, peeked in and came towards me. It was so creepy. It seemed to love my dads office near my bathroom which was right across from mine. Does anyone know what this could be?
What are ghosts?



The Bible says that one third of the angels rebelled against God (see my page on Satan for more info). Satan (Lucifer) was the angel in charge of this rebellion. These angels were punished by being banished from heaven.



Satan hates man. Man has a relationship with God that angels could never have. Man was made in the image and likeness of God. Satan is jealous of this and hates us for it. He wants to deceive human kind into rejecting God, so that man will share the same punishment that he is destined for.



Satan knows that one single lie wont be effective in deceiving everyone. So he came up with several. Some men would be deceived by Ghosts and reincarnation. Others would adopt an evolutionary philosophy, that the world created itself without God. Others would be deceived into believing in pagan gods, etc...



I believe (and the Bible says) that Satan sends fallen angels to earth to deceive us. Satan wants us to doubt the existence of God. He wants man to share in his punishment.



Part of this deception is the appearance of

I know the last person who will come out of Hell and the last one to enter the Paradise. A man comes out crawling and Allah says: Go, enter the Paradise. Then he approaches it and it appears to him as if filled, then he returns back and says: O Allah, I found it full. Then Allah says: Go, enter the Paradise. He approaches it and it appears to him as if filled. He then returns back and says: O Allah, I found it to be full. Allah says to him: Go, enter Paradise, you have what is equal to the whole world and ten folds (or, you have what is equal to ten times this world). He then says: O Allah, are you mocking me (or laughing at me) while You are the King? Ibn Mas`ood said: I saw the Prophet, laugh till his molar teeth were seen. Abdullah stated that the Prophet said: That is the lowest rank of those in the Paradise. [Al Bukhari and Muslim]

Who exactly is Artemis? (greek goddess, known as Diana to the romans)?

The virgin Goddess and the goddess of the hunt, also twin sister to the god of music, Apollo. Artemis was a warrior type goddess who harbored a deep prejudice regarding men. One of the famous myths about her is when a man happened to stumble across the creek she was bathing in and, as punishment, she had him torn apart by her hunting dogs.
I kinda forgot about all the greek myths, but if i remember correctly, she was the Goddes of the Hunt. She used to go and hunt in the forrest with her (girl) friends.

I think, that in the myth, it was like she was in love and that person got turned into a deer, or she got turned into a deer, and then that deer was shot during a hunt. Or something like that. Haha Like i said, I can

The number of cards in a suit in a regular deck of playing cards.



The number of colonies that formed the United States. The original flag had thirteen stars, one for each state. New stars have since been added whenever a new state joins the union, but the idea of adding stripes for new states was soon dropped, so the American flag to this day has thirteen horizontal stripes: six white ones and seven red ones.



In the Great Seal of the United States there are 13 olive leaves (with 13 olives), 13 arrows, and 13 stars. These form a triangle over the eagle with the number 13 on each point. On the reverse the pyramid has 13 levels.
