Has the world been fooled? Yahweh = yoldaboath?
Question by Daevion: Has the world been fooled? Yahweh = yoldaboath?
“Yaldaboath stationed seven kings to reign over the seven heavens, and five to reign over the depths of hell. He shared his fire with them, but did not give away any of the power of the light that he had taken from his Mother. For he is a being of ignorant darkness.
When the light mixed with the darkness, it made the darkness brighter. When the darkness mixed with the light, it dimmed the light. The result was neither light nor darkness, but rather gloom.
e is wicked because of the Mindlessness that is in him. For he said,
‘I AM GOD,
AND THERE IS NO OTHER GOD BESIDES ME,’
since he did not know from where his own strength had come.
“The rulers created for themselves seven powers. The powers in turn created for themselves six angels apiece, until there were three hundred sixty-five angels.
YAldabaoth organized everything after the pattern of the first eternal realms that had come into being, for he wished to create beings that are like the Imperishable Ones. Not that he had seen the Imperishable Ones. Rather, the power that is in him, that he had taken from his Mother, produced the pattern for the world order
“When he saw creation all around, and the throng of angels around him that had come forth from him, he said to them,
‘I AM A JEALOUS GOD,
AND THERE IS NO OTHER GOD BESIDES ME.’
But by making this announcement, he suggested to the angels with him that there is another God. For if there were no other God, of whom would he be jealous?
“When the Mother realized that this dark shadow had come into being imperfectly, she understood that her lover had not collaborated with her. She repented with many tears. . . . A voice called from the exalted heavenly realm,
‘MAN EXISTS,
AND THE SON OF MAN!’
“The first ruler, Yaldaboath, heard the voice and thought that it had come from his Mother. He did not realize its source.
It was from the holy Parent,
the completely perfect Forethought,
the image of the Invisible One,
that is, the Father of everything,
through whom everything came into being,
the first Man.
“He/she taught these things, and revealed him/herself in human shape.
“The entire realm of the first ruler quaked, and the foundations of hell shook. The bottomside of the waters above the material world was lit up by the image that had appeared. When all the authorities and the first ruler stared at this appearance, they saw the whole bottomside as it was lit up. And through the light they saw the shape of the image in the water
Yaldabaothh said to the authorities with him, ‘Come, let us create a human being after the image of God and with a likeness to ourselves, so that this human image may give us light.’
“They created with their powers, and copied the features that had appeared. Each of the authorities contributed a physical feature corresponding to the figure of the image they had seen. They created a being like the first perfect Man, and said, ‘Let us call it ADAM, that its name may give us power of light.’
All the angels and demons worked together until they fashioned the physical body. But for a long time their creation did not stir or move at all. . . . They said to Yaldabaoth, ‘Breathe some of your spirit into the face of Adam, and then the body will arise.’
“He breathed his spirit into Adam. The spirit is the power of his Mother, but he did not realize this, because he lives in ignorance. Thus the Mother’s power went out of Yaldabaoth, and into the physical body that had been made to be like the One who is from the beginning.
“The body moved, and became powerful. And it was enlightened.
At once the rest of the powers became jealous. Although Adam had come into being through all of them, and they had given their power to this human, yet Adam was more intelligent than the creators and the first ruler. When they realized that Adam was enlightened, and could think more clearly than they, and was free of evil, they took and threw Adam into the lowest part of the whole material realm.
OK, this is getting way long, so I have to cut out some more. Fast-forward to Yahweh’s appearance.]
The first ruler saw the young woman standing next to Adam, and noticed that the enlightened Afterthought of life had appeared in her. Yet Yaldabaoth was full of ignorance. So when the Forethought of all realized what was happening, she dispatched emissaries, and they stole Life out of Eve.
“The first ruler raped Eve, and produced in her two sons, a first and a second: ELOHIM and YAHWEH.
Elohim has the face of a bear,
Yahweh has the face of a cat.
ONE IS JUST,
THE OTHER IS UNJUST.
He placed Yahweh over the fire and the wind,
and he placed Elohim over the water and the earth.
He called them by the names CAIN AND ABEL, for he meant to deceive.”
Next came Sophia’s ill-begotten son, Yaldabaoth, who to all appearances seems identical with the Satan

Could I go far in Basketball?
Question by : Could I go far in Basketball?
Hey everyone. So I’m just a 14 year old kid, I’m 5′10 1/2 and 150 pounds. I’m pretty fast, and I can touch rim on some jumps. However, I feel like I am different from other kids, I love the game of basketball.. I always want to play more, when I come home from the gym after 4-5 hours of basketball every day, I still go outside and dribble and play more. Even now as I sit on the computer I want to have something to do with basketball, so I can get better in every way shape and form. I have a passion for this sport, I have played basketball seriously for only 1 YEAR, and I am already better than 95 % of kids my age. As I player I usually play with adults at the gym who all tell me “good job” “nice shot” or “good work man” and I’ve had a few come up to me and ask my age or say I could play college ball if I keep it up. I practice every day, I’m a great shooter, a good dribbler for my height, I can rebound, I hustle on every play, I can pass the ball, I love driving (however I need to work on driving with my left hand) and I’m good at faking out the opposing player. Could I go far in basketball? I spend a lot of time and I will most likely start practicing even more than I already do… could I play college? Thanks guys

Theres only one way to find out, try out for your schools team. See how you do.
I mean not trying to be rude, but how are we suppose to answer this unless you show us some clips or stats or something, cause all youve given us to work with is the fact that other people give you compliments.
This question is pretty much asking “Hi guys, im really good at basketball and everyone tells me Im really good, do you think im really good?”

I don’t know anything about military health demands, and thus don’t know if your surgery would have any actual repercussions.
Your best bet is probably to contact your Congressman’s office – he/she has staff members that are tasked with assisting constituents with problems such as this. If an exception to the requirements is possible, they would be able to steer you toward how to get it.

What Religion Is Your Bra (if you have a short attention span, please go on to the next joke)?
Question by Dew Drop: What Religion Is Your Bra (if you have a short attention span, please go on to the next joke)?
A man walked into the ladies department of a Macy’s and shyly walked up to the woman behind the counter and said, “I’d like to buy a bra for my wife.”
“What type of bra?” asked the clerk.
“Type?” inquires the man, “There’s more than one type?
“Look around,” said the saleslady, as she showed a sea of bras in every shape, size, color and material imaginable. “Actually, even with all of this variety, there are really only four types of bras to choose from.”
Relieved, the man asked about the types.
The saleslady replied: “There are the Catholic, the Salvation Army, the Presbyterian, and the Baptist types. Which one would you prefer?”
Now totally befuddled, the man asked about the differences between them.
The saleslady responded, “It is all really quite simple..
The Catholic type supports the masses.
The Salvation Army type lifts the fallen,
The Presbyterian type keeps them staunch and upright, and
The Baptist makes mountains out of mole hills.”
She then asked, “Have you personally ever wondered why A, B, C, D, DD, E, F, G, and H are the letters used to define bra sizes? If you have wondered why, but couldn’t figure out what the letters stood for, it is about time you became informed!”
{A} Almost …
{B} Barely there.
{C} Can’t Complain!
{D} Dang!
{DD} Double dang!
{E} Enormous!
{F} Fake.
{G} Get a Reduction.
{H} Help me, I’ve fallen and I can’t get up !

Body that can only be satisfied by being embraced by a man?
Question by : Body that can only be satisfied by being embraced by a man?
My little brother is not one of the strong looking guys out there. He doesn’t care about the fact that i am a girl and hes a guy and hes getting undressed and hoping into the bath while i have to sit here and cover my eyes when im trying to brush my teeth >:{ He relies on me for most things because my mother passed away when i was 6 and he was four, so dad has been looking after us the whole time, and i guess i sort of fit that motherly image for him and that’s why he’s still a bit immature *sigh* i don’t want him relying on me for stuff anymore – but some how i think hes going to have to for whats going on at school.
Ok, so i come home from school one night and dad doesn’t get home till lih 7 and my bro runs down the stairs and hugs me when i come inside, he starts crying and saying “Please don’t leave me!!” and now ive only taken into the fact that he has silky smooth skin, no freckles or pimples, never gets them really, he has silky blonde hair and he is the averageheight of a 14-year old but has a sort of girly shape, i mean when i see him running up the hallways, the smell he gives off makes me think i have a sister. But that day when he came running to me, i asked him what happened and said we should go and discuss this in his room, he said he dididn’tant to and was shaking his head like something was wrong, so i decided to scope it out – but when i entered his room i was pretty shocked. There were clothes laying on the floor *and he is an extremely clean person* that i dididn’t recognizend there were stains on the (ok before i go on, if your not some person who is formilua with SEX and possibly GAY SEX AND STUFF, don’t read anymore – this question does NOT apply to you. You can be some cool therapist or some sh!t but what i need is someone preferbly who was in a situation like this or knows about it.) there were stains on the sheets of stuff i know when i see it. There was creases all over the bed sheets. At that point i turned and stared at my brother for a long time, then he was about to say something untill i realised there was someone in the shower! So i freaked out and ran into the bathroom and opened the shower curtains and there was some 15- 16 year olf guy standing in there shocked and i asked him straight up “who the hell are you!??!’ and he said he was on the football team with my brother and they hang out in the library. I didn’t really buy it and i said to him “Well what i would liek to know, is why the hell are there your clothes lying in my brother room, there are cuum stains all over his bed and i know a sex scene when i see one, now if you don’t explain why the hell your in the shower, my brother is crying and looks scared, why he thinks I’m going to leave and why does this whole scene look and feel like you just rapped my 14 year old brother?
He looked at me with a no remorce face and said i didn’t hurt him – infact rather to me, it looked like he was enjoying it.” and he SMIRKED!
“what’s going on?!” i yelled
“well isn’t it obvious?” he asked me
“what’s obvious!?” i basically hissed back
“He has a body that can only truly be satisfied, by being embraced by a man.”
I don’t have a problem about gays, i mean – it’s not really a secret anymore, but i did used to read yaoi manga when i was like 13-14 ANYWAY. But when there is one in my house, who did it with my little brother, my brother who i thought wouldnt be the kind to let this stuff happen to him self, and thinks it’s ok. That’s when i get mad. I had a talk with my little brother about what basically happened when he got home and he told me his ….”friend” and him were just hanging out in the library browsing the book shelves and then sat down with one book. I’m just going to make a FAKE name up calling him ryan because ryan says to me “I rape people” anwyay. RYAN leaned across to my brother and asked him what he was reading and my brother turned around to answer when ryan stole a kiss and then my brother fully fell of his chair and that when ryan picked him up and said “lets go to your house” and YEAHHHHH.
I’m pretty much scared i mean – I just need to know what can i do, i don’t want to break them up or anything like that, not at all. but if dad EVER found out – he might not be so calm about this. What can i do? I’m scared at the fact that my brother is under age and that this guy is taking advantage of him or something like that. I guess a lot of people would just tell me to don’t interfere, but hes my brother, hes doing it with some one when hes liek 14, they love each other thats ok, love is love – i dont have a problem with that. but all im scared of is the fact that they will get caught.
Please help me to help …..these guys. o_O

How is the forth page of my story?
Question by カッリ: How is the forth page of my story?
Before reading this, would you like to read the first, second and third pages first?
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?…
After reading the first page it will lead to the second page and so on, so I am not going to put up the second page on this page.
Please edit it and don’t say things like “you need grammar work.” Say things like, “Capitol the ‘C’ in Cats are my favorite animal.” I am only writing a mininum of 26 pgs, and a max of 58, so sorry if some things are rushed. I will have the next page of the story up soon. I have not edited this yet so it is probably not the best work, plus I have only practiced writing about 3 years ago so it is probably not like you proffesional writers. Please be honest in your opinion!
relieved and this time, being more careful, I reached out my hand and took the keys.
I ran back over to Daerb and went to his neck. I climbed up onto him (because I couldn’t even reach the neck part where the chain was.) The chain lock was a weird one. It was a whole bunch of squiggly lines, and I recognized this from an ancient wizard language. The key was different too. There was a long metal stick that connected to the part that you put into the lock, which was also large and flat. It was shaped just like the squiggly lines that were on the chain lock. I quickly unlocked it (having to push hard,) and took it off. Sadly, the chain lock fell smack onto the ground and it was ear piercing. I could see the guard by the gate, he woke up with a surprise and looked over at the dragon for he knew that the loud noise meant that somebody had came into the dragon cave and took the dragon from its cage. The guard was in luck because we hadn’t left yet, and the dragon was hurt from the chain so he couldn’t escape very fast.
“! Sthnig” the guard yelled in the ancient wizard language, Drawiz. “! Eht Nogdra dna eht sseprinc si0 gniescape” he continued. I saw nights coming as Daerb tried with all its might to fly away. The wizard guard went to his pocket and found that somehow, he had lost his keys. He looked in to find that the keys were laying on the ground, right next the Daerb and I, he knew what I had done.
I knew Daerb was trying, so I didn’t pressure him to fly out loud, but in my mind, I was thinking, “COME ON, GO! IS FLYING REALLY THAT HARD!” I heard my conscience say, “I am trying.” Was that really my conscience though? Usually my conscience talks to me like I am him. He would’ve said something like “He is trying,” not “I am trying.” I stopped that now, freaked out by what just happened. It was as if the dragon was talking to me.

Q&A: Seriously considering breaking up with girlfriend. (Please help)?
Question by : Seriously considering breaking up with girlfriend. (Please help)?
LONG BUT PLEASE READ AND TRY TO HELP ME, ANY ADVICE IS APPRECIATED (I Love CAPS TOO)
Hello Yahoo answers, first let me start off with the fact that I usually don’t go on here much unless in a great deal of personal stress or need some serious advice, hell ANY advice would be appreciated. With that out of the way, let me begin. First off let me try not to ramble (Too late I know) and tell the story in the least amount of words. To sum it up, I never had a girlfriend, recently acquired one who is very smart and dare I say almost “As intelligent as a man”, but is in no way shape or form a man (I checked, thoroughly). Said girlfriend doesn’t seem to care about me all that much, or at least that’s the way I feel. It seems she keeps me around just for witty banter and a few laughs, she says she likes me but as we all know, people lie.
So now I’m sitting here having not having seen her for 3 days because she’s busy with family, which I was more or less ok with and granted her those days. I recently gave her my game collection and she’s been playing that, did I mention she BAILED on going somewhere with me today just to go to her cousins where the Xbox is? (HINT HINT), I mean Ninja Gaiden is a good game, but I feel used and alone, and angry, and most of all annoyed at the fact that she apparently doesn’t care about seeing me as much as I care about seeing her. Part of my frustration is bent towards family issues just for your information, so you don’t trail off thinking I’m some crazy son of a ***** boyfriend with need issues. But lets focus on the girl, what the hell is she doing? If any of you are confused on exactly what the hell is going on, I’ll add details to assist you. If you’ve read this far then I congratulate you on a job well done, no cookies this time though, just water.
Sorry about the wrong category, it set me to this one. Again sorry for the inconvenience.
I should add the detail that we haven’t talked much or seen each other for 5 or so days, apart from a few texts that’s all I’ve got.

BF is an ass man when my best assest are my breasts..?
Question by Question Girl: BF is an ass man when my best assest are my breasts..?
I know my boyfriend is an “ass man”. He likes weirdly huge gigantic butts and I don’t have that. I’m in shape and have a medium toned ass. My asset has always been my large breasts that stand out, and are what guys always like the best about me. That’s what people have always commented on for me and that’s what I guess over the years I have liked the best about myself.
Months ago my boyfriend was commenting on these women who got butt impants and how great it looked and if I would ever get butt implants. And ill admit, I got very upset. It bothered me for months. I eventually told him that the comment had really effected me and he apoligized and never mentioned that again to me.
Now I know he’s apoligized which is great, but those comments still haunt me. Even if he said sorry, it makes me feel he has a problem with my behind. I’m an attractive girl and i’ve dated a guy before who thought my ass was perfect, but whom i didnt have chemistry for so i broke up with him. A lot of men don’t care for gigantic butts, and would love mine not dreaming of it to be bigger. Being with my current bf whom i actually love, and whom actually loves me is hard for my self-esteem. My best asset that gave me confidence is not the best part of a female body he likes..and i don’t even have what he likes best…this makes me feel not as attractive as i feel when i’m single not with him. I dont fit his vision of perfect.
I find this problem of mine so stupid, so please refrain from critcism. I’m asking for advice because i know its a silly problem. It’s so stupid that something like this bothers me. How should I overcome this? Should I be finding a “breast man”? Or even a man who isn’t into gigantic butts? All i can think about is how my ass isn’t gigantic enough! Should i just let it go? HOW? SHould I be single and work on my self-esteem? (which i will admit i need help with). I’m an attractive girl who has low self-esteem and it’s weird but its a problem for me.
