theres 3 things that can happen when you die
1. Nothing! you just go into a deep sleep and you never wake up and your eaten by worms
2.You go to heaven if you do what the bible says you should do
3.You go to Hell if you dont dont do what the bible says.


Now a logical person would choose #2. unless you are a gambler then you would choose #1,unless you believe you were already going then you would choose #2and #1.but unless you hated God and knew he was real then you would Default to # 3.

2) Are you commited to figuring things out for yourself, even if that means 'dancing to the beat of your own drum'?

We're taught to be followers. How many of us refuse to play that role?

'Truth' that fails to transform the person and society at large is NOT Truth...imho :-)

what do you think of traditional vs. new -aged churches? Do they really match up?

I recently learned that pentacostalism is very hard on women ( which I noticed throughout my life) and was concidered a cult at one point.
I was raised in a black, carribean pentacostal small church.
I recently went to college and found a nice church that seems religious but is much diffrent from what I was raised in. It's mixed race and people dont really wear "sunday best" it's very come as you are. I dunno maybe later in my life I may change my denomination? They seem VERY sincere,but

what do you think people?

The Bible tells us, that if we are repentent, and regretful, we will be forgiven.
It also tells us that all sins are equal, and not seperated into little sins, or big sins.
Now, if all that is true:

Most people, if they murdered anouther, they regret it, and wish they had not, so they can be forgiven.

Most people, will use the name of The LORD in vain without a second thought.

Now, looking at these two things as the Bible says, and not which is right, and wrong in ones morals, which is worse?

Not indigenous people or hicks or hillbillies or almish . I mean the people who live in houses like everyone else but shoot animals and eat them instead of buying meat in the stores. I know some of them buy food in stores but a friend of my family says it taste better when you shoot it yourself it's not processed and that. Him and his family and friends do that but i didn't know if there was a name for it or not because one of my friends had asked and i never gave it much thought but now i don't know if they are called anything or not... anyone have any ideas?

There is a box in front of you that cannot be opened.

Scientists have studied it for years, using all manner of tools, and using proven techniques to determine what exactly is in the box. Over the years, scientists have discovered new things about the box, and have changed their theories about the contents of the box accordingly.

However, one of the earliest scientists to study it, Fred, decreed that the box contained a magic golden egg. And it is this egg that makes gravity work. Now this defies all logic, and goes against everything science has ever taught us about gravity. But Fred said his theory was right, and there's no changing his mind. A lot of people today still say Fred is right, because all the other scientists keep changing their findings. Fred has stuck by his magic egg theory the whole time, though, so he must be right.

Does that make sense to you?

Just curious...

This is supposed to be an exercise in getting out in the world & meeting people in order to improve my dismal social life a bit. I don't mind what sort of club it is as long as it's not too sporty. Other than that I'm pretty much game for ANYTHING!! In case it helps; I'm 35, studying Humanities in South-East London & pretty laid back about most things, I'd describe myself as bi & can be a bit kinky in the right situation (but only on days with a sunrise AND a sunset in them!!) So then anyone got any ideas for me?

I think that there are other ethnicities and nationalities that look better than Brazialians. I think East African, West African, South Asian, and Carribean women are better looking than some of the "Braizialian bombshells" like Giselle Buduchen(I think Giselle looks too white and nordic for my taste).

I heard a lot of Christian missionaries in India are mimicking the Hindu religion in order to convert the local population. Some of the things they are doing are:

1. Building temples for Mary and Jesus - to appeal to the native Hindus. (Whatever happened to not worshiping to Idols?)
2. Fathers running Yoga centers chanting Christ’s name.
3. Modifying Sanskrit hymns that glorify Hindu gods by replacing with Jesus and/or Mary.
etc.

I'm not trying to prove anything here, just exposing fault in logic many people seem to use. If the universe had to have a creator because it's too complex to happen naturally, and you freely admit that God is so complicated that we can't understand him OR anything he does, then aren't you saying your God has to have a creator. Surely something even more complicated than the universe and human psyche couldn't have just happened. But he is eternal you say. So something that can be so complex can only be there because it is eternal and has always been there. So why can't the matter composing the world have been eternal? If anything can be eternal then why do we need a creator? If you believe in God I can never change your mind on this site and that's not my goal. I just want to know if that sounds faulty to anyone else?
