Did God ask too much from Abraham?

Hope @1hopefulman (45111) • Canada 1 Sep 17

An Atheistic Bible Study Of Genesis Chapter Twenty Two – Abraham Nearly Kills Isaac

Arthur Chappell @arthurchappell (44941) • Preston, England 25 Aug 17

One of the best known and inexplicably best loved Old Testament stories is one of the most disgusting, sickening episodes in the whole Bible. After years of longing for a son, Abraham, now aged at least 105, is told by God to...

I saw a painting from an Italian artist on antiques road show. It wasn't the best painting that I had ever seen of her. She was in the act of fleeing from Abraham and Sarah with Ismael. The problem was that Abraham had started to...

The nature of Peter's powers on NBC's Heroes?

usaction @usaction (649) • United States 6 May 07

A common belief is that Peter can have the powers of any hero he has been in contact with. But, he has *not* been in contact with Ted, and I don't think he even knows Ted. He had a dream, or possibly a vision (as I believe this...
