that prisoners almost always "get God" when they get locked up?

My uncle was a convict all my life to the point of institutionalization. All of his cards and letters had scriptures in them. Everytime he got out he was immediatly looking for his junkie buddies and stealing anything that wasn't nailed down.
What is you'r opinion on inmates finding God in prison?... Who do you think is more often abandoned, God or the prisoner?

If I am correct than according to bible before our universe was absolutely nothing.
Of cause our view depends on definition of nothing but as I understand there was absolute nothing except GOD.
So we realize that we have eternity time for future so as eternity time into the pass (before universe was ever created).
Does it seem that GOD was imprisoned by all that nothing that surrounded him for eternity? Did he become all powerful only after he created universe? Was he a god of nothing for eternity into the pass, or may be GOD of darkness (since he is the one who created light) for eternity before he created universe? To me it seems like he was in jail for all that time till something in his immutable (unchangeable state) became changeable.

Answer from an honest heart: Ever lied (even once)? Stolen (the value is irrelevant)? Then you’re a lying thief. Bad news huh? There’s more. Have you had sex out of marriage? If so, you’re a fornicator. Jesus said, "Whosoever looks upon a woman to lust after her has committed adultery already with her in his heart." If you have hated someone, the Bible says you’re a murderer. What’s more, you have a conscience (con-science means "with knowledge"), so when you sin, you do it with knowledge it’s wrong.
Bearing in mind that God is perfect and that He has seen your thought life, when you stand before Him on Judgment Day will you be innocent or guilty? You know you will be guilty, and end up in Hell. Perhaps you don’t believe that. That means there’s more bad news for you, because it will happen anyway no matter what you believe. To see what the Good News is just contact me. Until then, give this some serious thought. It applies to EVERYONE, regardless of race, culture, or beliefs.

William WIlberforse walked to the english pariament every day quoting Psalm 119 and worked tirelessly year after year to end slavery and at the end of his life he did, with the help of his friend Wedgewood who made a special plate with a slave on it that said 'i am a man and a brother' Wilberforse was an evangelical. What other religious political figures worked to end slavery and are there any we can site in Islam, Judaism or other?

If you have all of these you are richer than 90 % of the worlds population. So how can any of us say we are not having a great day? I honestly suspect many of the poor in this world are happier than the richer as they content themselves with much less and focus on what really matters. LOVE
Peace Be With You,

I am slightly confused what unconditional love is and if we are using the proper definition for this word “love”. GOD is all love.
I know that every God’s act will be justified by Christian. I am not asking if it’s good or bad or what’s the reason. I only interesting the in the definition of word “LOVE”
From bible alone we can see that God can be:
Jealous
Furious
Angry
Sorry (that he created all humans)
Feel sorrow in his heart.
Mad
Commands to kill children’s,
Sends deceases
Commands to sluter ppl
Genocide every living thing except 8 ppl
Is it really all love? Is that’s the definition of word “love” this days?
Please don’t explain me why he does that. I know his reason is absolutely beautiful. All I am asking is what’s the definition of word “LOVE”?

How did you feel? Sad?
It's scary to think that the magical creations that we cling to as children are nothing more than figments of our imagination. Santa, the Tooth Fairy and the Easter Bunny all have something in common, we eventually grow up and no longer need the childish notion that they exist. It's scary to some but it's a door that all must walk through.
However, some of you still cling to the childish notion that another imaginary fabrication is real; god. Of course this is completely false and only illustrates that some of you haven't develloped the maturity to look around and measure the world against what people say about it. Once you do so, you'll quickly realize that god, like all of his childhood fairy-tale counterparts, is a figment of someone's imagination. Nothing more.
Please, grow up and join us in adulthood won't you?
If you need to know how, we can help you.

How can you prove it did, even with home movies or pictrues.
What if today was the first day you were really ever alive.
What if was the last day.
Actually this kind of makes me thing of Groundhog's Day, or 12:01
(anyone seen the movie 12:01 actually, it's been years)
Anyways just something I think about. I guess I'm really just looking for people opinions on if they ever felt this way and why?

I noticed at work in some old medical files that patients back in the 60s and 70s were referred to as "middle-aged" if they hit mid-30s plus. I think most people that age now would be horrified at the thought of being "middle-aged" now.

But if you divide life expectancy in half, doesn't that mean you are mid-way through your life at late 30s?

Think about it... Hell deters peolple from doing bad thing the same way as prison deters people from doing bad things. So pretty much hell is there to make people suffer for their sins. Just like prison punishes criminals. HELL IS GOOD... What do you think?
