I don't own any of that, but according to God and the bible, all humans do own those things. We were given dominion over the Earth, to do with it as we will. Like some cheap hooker on a Saturday night.
As I was explaining to pstum, what Christian don't do.........read your Bible word for word and you too will discover what God is telling you about dominion!!!!.....................*DOMINION (http://www.unityheritage.org/Heritage-Concepts%20Dominion.htm - broken link)
The bible states, thatGod created the earth and all its creatures, and last of all man, to whom He gavedominion over everything. Also…consider thewords of the Psalmist: Thou makest him to have dominion of the works of thy hands; Thou hast put all things under his feet. God created the fundamental ideas culminating in the idea of idealman. This idealman haspower to mold God’s creation into any manifestation he may choose. If he consults theFather and projectsHis thoughts in accordance with the law,perfect manifestation follows…One who understands this relation of man to his creatorcan assert with confidencethatthis is man’s world and always will be. By right thinkingman can have the cooperation of Godin producingmanifestationsandthereby canset up the kingdom of God in the earth; or he canignore God andattempt toform a world and govern it without divine aid. We are now living in a civilization dominated by human thought, and confusion is the result. How many ages haveand aeons havepast since man lost contact with Godno one can tell…One scientist saysforces released fromthat the the bombs that were used on the Japanese cities in 1945 may affect those who were subjected to them and their descendants for a thousandyears. Experimentation proves that we have tapped a kingdom that we do not know how to handle safely.
God gave us freedom of choice. Unfortunately, we have used this freedom to bind ourselves inchains of ignorance. As Individuals, we have thrown up walls of self incrimination and guilt in our consciousness, thus cutting ourselves off from the abundant good that God has for us. Collectively, people have built up false beliefs about sin, sickness, and death, causing us to lose sight of the true meaning of life, which is that we are all children of God. As such, it is our privilege, in fact our very mission, to be heirs to God’s kingdom.
Interesting Idea. I suppose when he appeared as Krishna He was Blue? And any idea how he looked when He appeared as Woden?
Please provide a verse from the bible where Christ appeared as Krishna and Woden and I'd be pleased to make a guess. But I expect Woden might have horns under that hat so probably wrong person.

Every church service where they talked about Adam and Eve says that God gave the Earth to us. That we have complete control of the planet and all of the life on it, God gave it to us.
You go right ahead and believe what you want, I have read my bible, numerous times. I've read a KJV and a NIV.

We do have domain, but it's silly for you to think you would treat the earth as a cheap hooker!!
You might read your Bible, but you need to gain respect for it!!!

I suppose he could appear in whatever form and color he chooses. When he appeared to Joseph Smith, God's chosen prophet of the restoration, and other witnesses who reported their experience, he had white hair and a white beard, looking identical to Heavenly Father. There is no mention of the color of his eyes or skin that I am aware of.
Jesus of course was a Jew, so during his earth life he would most likely have the coloring and physical characteristics of Jews of that time and location.
I think HE looks more like this. Kind of a Bin Laden look. The church used a white man to get people to feel a better connection to Jesus. Like it would matter what color HE was.

Your image is some artist's imaginative creation and has nothing to do with reality.
To equate the Savior and Redeemer of all mankind with Bin Laden is in my opinion grossly disrespectful of the sacred beliefs of millions upon millions of people.

Unless, of course, Bin Laden *is* your savior and redeemer. Then everything's cool.

Your getting it wrong. As far as Bin Ladens, he happens to be very tall, middle eastern, olive complexion. He doesn't look like a monster by any means,although he is. I wasn't comparing Jesus to Bin Laden. Lighten up.
And do you think the picture that the Morman Church has hanging is not an artist opininon??

Of course not, lighten up!
By the way, it's spelled "Mormon."
