alright, so, i was baptized lutheran in the river jordan. my family stopped going to church because our paster did something really bad. so we stopped going to church when i was about seven. i did not have a very good childhood. i was blind for a period of time, but had surgery so now im not, and i have had four near death experiences. two of which were people trying to kill me. reading became my only escape. its all i did. basically just fantasy, history, and fiction novels. i began to belive what i read. i belived in faeries and still do. i belive everyone has a right to their opinion. i have practiced "witchcraft" but i dont know if it could be considered such, my horse had a broken leg, and i did a healing spell, i have never tried to bear ill will onto anyone. i am a very understanding accepting person with good morals. and i used to lie a lot when i was a kid. my friend who is a pagan said that i was pretty much a pagan. i belive in magick. and my question is, am i going to hell?

When Christians eat out or shop on Sundays, it prevents employees of the restaurants and stores they visit from going to church. Why don't Christian ministers speak out against this more readily? I want to go to church, and I can't. Even if I found another job, someone would have to take my place, and they would be in the same predicament as I am.

All pillars of our society are crumbling. Corruption and poverty is eating up developing countries. Our hate towards each other because of race, religion, territory is destroying our moral sense. Everyone is fighting for their own daily survival. In such a world, we need to bring widespread change in how ppl think and act. What do you think is the best way to do that?

after you pray that is. Should you say, "Now that I've prayed, I believe that everything will be alright."

OK, I'm doing a project on a golf course for work...

How do you say words like tee, green, and fairway in Spanish?

I can look at a dictionary of course but I'd rather here from good Spanish speakers; are there even words for this stuff in Spanish? (I pretty much just learned these English words last year).

Thanks

I do not believe that you can be born and decide that you were meant to be with the same sex. God made men and women. no just men for men and women for women. or even bisexuals. if you think about it when sex is at hand. women need something within them and men need to be within something if you get my drift.so please answer my question.

Humans have the specific teeth to eat meat which means it is part of what nature wants us to eat, vegetarians say that it is cruel to animals to kill them for food, but that is what all carnivorous or omnivorous animals do, including humans which happen to be animals also. nature defines humans as being omnivorous and yet some people defy nature and are vegetarians, it doesn't make sense!

In this day and age there is so much we have learnt and we no longer need the social controls that religion provided hundreds of years ago. Things like tail bones on humans and tiny wings on Osterich's and emu's are a good topic for discussion.

Yesterday,my three year old daughter told me Satan is rather fond of coloring in coloring books. I was just wondering if anyone happened to know what his favorite color to use is...

Were you raised in a strong religious household? Did you later reject that religion? How didi you do it? For me, there are things that I have a lot of difficulty rejecting - such the people at church have been there for since I was born. Also, any contrary comments I make about that religion are treated as personal attacks by my parents. How do I do it without moving out of town and deceiving my family?

Gospel tracts are those little booklets that have a message from the bible or about God in them.

I always wonder - are gospel tracts doing any good or are they annoying the people who find them?

Have you ever been positively impacted by a gospel tract? Has a gospel tract ever made you angry? I know not all tracts are the same and some are more offensive than others. I'm just curious to know how you or someone you know have been PERSONALLY impacted by tracts.

1. You believe Jesus got his *** beat and tortured just so you can murder, rape steal ect., repent, say you're sorry and go to heaven? THAT'S STUPID AND EVIL

2. You think there's gonna be angels in the sky blowing trumpets and God and the Devil will have a big fight? THAT"S STUPID AND EVIL?

3 You say your life is predestined but you also say you have free will? THAT'S STUPID

4. You go to church and give your money away and actually believe You're giving it to God? So, will they send it to God by UPS or what? THAT'S STUPID

Can anyone cite a book and passage of the Bible in which God directly or indirectly condemns masturbation?

2006-07-07 16:34:23 · 8 answers · asked by Andrew R 1 in Religion & Spirituality

subject or class. It seems this problem has been around soo long but what who do we revolt against to end it. The rich are too easy of a target, but there has to be a middleman pulling the strings. Does anyone really know who it is? or is it a certain group or way of thinking that feeds poverty? Bono your too vague.
