i heard it once but i forget the source..
i don't mean to insult or something.. i really read it once..
but in this question the term God means a higher consciousness... something like the state of "no self".. something like "joining the universe"..
do you think so ?
cause when we feel orgasm, we feel like somehow 'enlightment'..
i know you might think i'm joking or trying to make fun.. but i'm not. i'm really serious..
and they also stated something about yoga/samadhi expert practitioner or a high spiritual person can experience it.. a feeling just like orgasm.. it is a state of mind.. they can have this God experience without having sex, etc..
what do you think ?
i think it could be possible.. isn't it ?

In fact are there real cowboys at all anymore? Seems like ranchers and farmers cant afford to do their work these days as giant enterprise is taking over. Anyway, Ive always liked the history and skill of cowboys, but their reputed to be very old-boy conservative. I only know stereotypes, not real people, so please tell me if you know.

For example if someone in the past has done a lot of crimes can they become a good person?(this is just one example)

People can change the top layer but can they really change their personality?

The first King James Bible has God's name Jehovah in Ps 83:18, but a newer version of the King James has removed it. Many other verses lack the name as well. Why did they change it from version to version? What's so wrong with God's name?

So, me and my ex broke up along time ago, and I haven't even really talked to her for quite a while, but I want her back. She was sooo amazing, and I couldn't see it. I've dated other people off and on, but no one has compared to her. I've been trying (kind of half assed) to date this other girl for the past 6 mo or so, but all I can think about is my ex. We live about 10 hrs apart, and I would never ask her to come here cause I know she desperately wants to stay where she is and close to her family, but I'd go to her in a heart beat if I thought I had a chance of getting her back. I heard through the grapevine that she has another girlfriend right now but I don't know if thats true, and to be honest I don't care. I need her desperately! So, do you think I should pick up and move back to try again or should I let it go. If you think I should go back, any suggestions on how to go about getting with her again would be appreciated!

Liberals take the position that the US constitution granted everyone freedom to pursuit happiness and that people should be let alone to decide for themselves as to what is good, bad, and that no one should tell them what is good or bad because it is a subjective opinion reserved for each person to decide for oneself. Critics of Liberals say that judgement is good, standards are good, existence of shame, morals, and the existences of evil and good. Liberals don't agree with barriers or rules or standards. Conservatives believe standards are good and that people should be shamed for shameful behavior and that evil behavior should be identified and espoused, and that judgement of others actions is a good thing to make and have. What do you think?

Is it possible for a female who was bi, and then married a man to become straight, and totally not want any other women? The person I am speaking of is young, and seems totally committed to her relationship. Should I think she was just being curious, or is it a possibility that she could still be seeking more from women?

I'm sorry to say I'm fairly ignorant about your faith, so I may be way off base here.

If you believe Ishmael (not Issac) was the true heir of Abraham and entitled to the "Promised Land",how can you honor Moses and Jesus who were both of the Issac branch of the family?
