| Why a swan? I mean, why not a duck? or a camel?
Did he know she had a things for swans? I know Helen was a real beauty, but a swan?
If Leda had been a Canadian, would he have seduced her as a goose? The northern part of the pelican's range is in Canada - perhaps.
 
I guess I would say that the swan is more erotic.
Hey! I've seen a pic of Leda riding a swan!

| This will be short and sweet!First of all GOD overseen EVERY word written in the bible. I have said this Lord only knows how many times. It is written in the bible for truth, even the ones being printed in printing shops today are over seen by GOD. He wont allow mistakes from his true word. If you think that buddha some fat guy statue is GOD, not only are you lost , but ignorant of GOD's true words, Thou shall have no God's before me. Secondly greek mythology is so absurd , how can you possibly compare any of that mythological cartoon/comic book type nonsense to the one and only true GOD. The bible has been proven time and time again , by scientific research and archealogy, (even though atheist and some scientist wont believe it)!! Other scientist have started out to disprove the bible only to find it unmistakably, without doubt true and correct , more so than any other book ever written. So for you to compare mythology or fat guys burning incense,to our true GOD, you are blantenly breaking a commandment, but hey you dont believe in it anyway so to you it doesnt matter. Seems so dumb to me to believe in some mythological cartton character , yet not believe in GOD's own word for all of us. May GOD bless all of us!!
You really are a disturbed sheltered man arent you.

Can you clarify to me why you think Im disturbed and sheltered? I have been all around this country, with several various jobs, Truck driver, construction worker, etc.! You think because I believe in the Bible and GOD, Im disturbed. I look at it this way, people like YOU are disturbed and sheltered. Well you said it it to me so I can say it to you. It is unfortunate, that a person can start a thread, making a mochery of GOD, and when christians give their opinion, they are blasted with name calling. I will put it to you this way, if wanting to go to heaven and stand next to Jesus, (The One who died for us) is disturbing to you then you need to ask your self a few qeustions. The Bible says we will ALL stand before GOD and answer for our sins. What are you going to say to GOD, when he asks you why didnt you believe in me? The reward for belief in The one and only GOD , is FAR greater than the punishment for not believing!! We are ALL, gonna live eternally in spirit. Some will be in Heaven and some will be in Hell! And Hell is far worse than your mind can imagine. The same way that the beauty of Heaven is far better than we can Imagine!! And I got some old news for ya, You wont be able to change your mind when you get there, pal! May GOD open your heart and your eyes!!

What’s she's trying to say is it's not that they are all Jews. Since the word Jew implies a race. She means that if you actually study the roots of Judaism, Islam, and Christianity you find that they have incredible amounts of parallels with in them. They are in essence essentially the same religion with some mild changes.
I mean, look at the holy lands for all three religions. All three consider Jerusalem their holy land. Why would three separate religions happen to hold the same small section of the earth to be their holy land? Why do Christians read a Hebrew bible? The Old Testament is actually very accepting of Judaism, they just don’t see Christ as their messiah figured because their predictions were off. So the New Testament to them obviously means nothing since it’s centered more on Christ.
This is why I keep saying it so sad how few Christians really truly know what the hell they are talking about when they discuss their grand religion. Not to mention if you did deeper, you see a recurring theme through out religions even older than Christianity that had their All god, having a half mortal child and that child runs around helping humanity:
Dionysus had a strange birth that evokes the difficulty in fitting him into the Olympian pantheon. His mother was a mortal woman. Semele, the daughter of king Cadmus of Thebes, and his father Zeus, the king of the gods. Zeus' wife, Hera, a jealous and prudish goddess, discovered the affair while Semele was pregnant. Appearing as an old crone (in other stories a nurse), Hera befriended Semele, who confided in her that Zeus was the actual father of the baby in her womb. Hera pretended not to believe her, and planted seeds of doubt in Semele's mind. Curious, Semele demanded of Zeus that he reveal himself in all his glory as proof of his godhood. Though Zeus begged her not to ask this, she persisted and he agreed. Therefore he came to her wreathed in bolts of lightning; mortals, however, could not look upon an undisguised god without dying, and she perished in the ensuing blaze. Zeus rescued the foetal Dionysus by sewing him into his thigh. A few months later, Dionysus was born on Mount Pramnos in the island of Ikaria, where Zeus went to release the now-fully-grown baby from his thigh. In this version, Dionysus is borne by two "mothers" (Semele and Zeus) before his birth, hence the epithet dimetor (of two mothers) associated with his being "twice-born".
In another version of the same story, Dionysus was the son of Zeus and Persephone, the queen of the Greek underworld. A jealous Hera again attempted to kill the child, this time by sending Titans to rip Dionysus to pieces after luring the baby with toys. Zeus drove the Titans away with his thunderbolts, but only after the Titans ate everything but the heart, which was saved, variously, by Athena, Rhea, or Demeter. Zeus used the heart to recreate him in the womb of Semele, hence he was again "the twice-born". Other versions claim that Zeus gave Semele the heart to eat to impregnate her.
The rebirth in both versions of the story is the primary reason why Dionysus was worshipped in mystery religions, as his death and rebirth were events of mystical reverence. This narrative was apparently used in several Greek and Roman cults, and variants of it are found in Callimachus and Nonnus, who refer to this Dionysus with the title Zagreus, and also in several fragmentary poems attributed to Orpheus.
Oh and just a little FYI the Religion that worshiped Dionysus came out around 200 B.C. interesting the greeks had the idea of a half mortal child, dieing and being born again...

I believe he is refusing the your inability to see anything outside of your own little world. And the fact that your using the "My god is allmighty" excuse to why your god can do things.

| You know that comment is borderline off topic, remeber it was said to keep your comments in a discussion. Your comments are just mocking the buhhdist people for their believes thats not discussion. Also it was never claimed that he has been reincarnated only that it's believed that he has. Your 60 years old i would think you could supply a little more wisdom then just mocking.

| "-using the "My god is allmighty" -"
Those with that fallacious and perverted belief use it to justify and rationalize all sorts of nonsense and even atrocities, as history shows...Logic, morality, and decency are victims of these perverse minds if they choose to go that way. And when they do, they have no ability to understand where they have sinned. There evil is sanctioned by an "allmighty" god.

NO< it isn't silly,
Abraham is the founder of Judaism, and from judaism split Christianity, and Islam.
He slept with sarahs maid because sarah couldn't get pregnant,
Hagaar was the maid, and hagaars son became the Islam branch.
Sarah did get pregnant see, and because she was the" real" wife ( retarded crap that is a BIG part of the problem right there, and the idiots think that because abraham did it, it was right?, morons)
anyway,sarah apparently was a real b*tch because she forced abraham to send hagaar and their son, OUT into the desert, and they became Muslims.
the message we are supposed to get from all of this is, until we love each other, and take care of each other we will be destined to NEED each other.
the zionists turned that into Israel is there??? tards.
