Is it illegal to use file-sharing services such as WinMX or Kazaa? There is no specific law that states that these sites are illegal. All you have to go off of is precedent. It all depends on how copyright law is interpreted. For example: Metallica sued napster for giving out their songs for free; in that case the court interpreted the law to say that it was illegal. Think of abortion, the only reason that is legal is due to a case in the supreme court...

Is it legal for an American to go to Canada to buy prescription drugs? Yes, that in it of itself is legal.

So to get perscription drugs for free in Canada, you have to be a Canadian citizen. So to get a fake ID passing yourself off as a Canadian just to get free perscription drugs is illegal. But...

What are the potential benefits of stem cell research? There are many potential benefits in stem cell research. The main benefit is to gain the ability to duplicate parts of your body (arms, legs, heart, spinal cord, etc.). This would drastically change the world of medicine.

Answer to:
Why did the Russian submarine, the Kursk, sink? What probably happened (nobody knows exactly what happened) is that a fire broke out in the torpedo room. Because the fire couldn't be contained, it set off an explosion in one of the warheads causing all the other warheads to explode. The kind of hole that would be produced from this explosion is consistent with the hole found on the Kursk.

Can I play my Xbox on a projection television? Is there any reason not to? Yes, the XBOX uses RCA cables for connectivety, so you'll just need to find the right adapter(s) to be able to connect the rca plugs to whatever your projection TV uses.

What qualifies as insider trading? Buying or selling of goods based on information that is not available to the public.

How often are Catholics supposed to go to confession? In Catholic school, the nuns tell you it is good to confession once every couple of weeks at least; they just don't force you. To go to confessoin once every year would be the BARE minumum. I don't remember his name, but a saint once said that a righteous man sins seven times a day.

Answer to:
Do the Catholic teachings recognise Charles Darwin and the theory of evolution? Does the Catholic Faith recognise that dinosaurs existed? The above answer is correct, except that my church has no position of Darwin's theory of evolution. I personally recognize Evolution as an established and very probable means of the origion of our species. Just as long as you believe that God guided the course of evolution, any Catholic can choose to believe in natural selection (God created nature and all of its rules).

I have an Xbox and it won't play X-rated movies. Why? If you have X rated movies I'm assuming that you don't have any parents like me who would've set the parental controlls and a passcode if I didn't do it first, and that these are undamaged DVDs. What should be the problem is that the parental controls aren't set to your mature tastes. First once there are no discs in the xbox, you should see the "dashboard...

Is the speed of light constant? If we are on the subject of relativity, yes Einstien proved that light (in a vacuum) is a constant.

He also said that time is not a constant. So it would be true to say...

Are all Christian denominations considered to have branched off from Catholicism? Yes.

Of any person alive only Pope John Paul II can say that he is a direct successor from Peter, Jesus himself chose Peter to be the...

Is it true that Catholics are taught to believe in purgatory and limbo, and is there a biblical basis for this? In Catholic School I was taught to believe in purgatory on countless occasions. I don't think that these places are mentioned in the bible per say; but what really matters, and what I was taught in Catholic school, is that in parts of the New Testament praying for the dead is mentioned. This means something other than heaven, earth, and hell exist; it is pointless to pray FOR someone in...

Was there ever a time period when priests were allowed to marry? Yes. Ever since the birth of Catholicism to about the time of the rennaisance they were, Peter himself was a married man.

So now a priest would tell you that "he is married...
