“Diana was different, she went to war with the Royals and was mother to a future king. Princess Fergie was further down the line and didn't go to war with anyone. So she had to do diet drink commercials. No one really cares about Prince Edward or Princess Margret's kids because they're too far from actually having their face on the money.

I heard that when Tony Blair was talking about "de-sexing" the line of succession, Princess Anne's two kids lobbied against it Peter Phillips, the Queen's eldest grandchild, doesn't want to be anywhere near the job.”

“Until 2004 the three jamarat (singular: jamrah) were tall pillars (not statues as you claim). Saudi authorities replaced the pillars with 85 ft long walls for safety; some people were accidentally throwing pebbles at others on the opposite side. In both cases, the objects are/were purely symbolic.”

“no. christians are the only religion that's against animal sacrifice.”

“Sure. Instead they replaced it with human sacrifice (or God-man sacrifice, if you prefer) and re-enact it ritually.”

“the ONLY religion?”

CollinJE replied on Nov 20, 2009 at 11:00:30

“But animal sacrifice is part of your religious history. So even if you find that your God no longer requires animal sacrifice, you can't deny that in the past He did.

So God can change his mind? Why would He need to? Shouldn't his moral standard be ever consistent?”
