By Higher Power, I mean for example: Jesus, God, Allah, Vishnu, Ultimate Reality, Buddha, etc.

I am NOT looking for a belief system. I am looking for a description of the relationship. I will choose best based on how well described.

My hypothesis: There are going to be more similarities than differences, no matter the religion.

Even though I am Christian, I am interested (not a scientific study) to see the responses. Thank you.

I have a friend who is Apostolic. Not sure what Apostolic is but I do know she says they dont believe in the Trinity, She says they are oneness.
What does that mean

Why is it that some people do not want someone/something, but they do not want other to have it either?

I have never understood this, whether it be exes, or job promotions, etc...
Can someone tell me the reasoning behind this, besides pure spite?

Most people that I talk to whom are religious people don't even know what they are talking about. You ask a question, they either quote you a bunch of scriptures or refer you to someone else. The ones that do try to give you an educated answer on why they believe, sound as if they were brainwashed, cause all their answers seem to be the same.[Faith] I have faith in alot of things but that does'nt mean they are all correct. I think people just need to open their eyes and see the world for what it really is and quit killing people in the name of your God.

Empirical evidence Jesus created the world: n/a
Empirical evidence FSM created the world: n/a

Jesus's religioius text: Holy Bible
FSM's religious text: Gospel of the FSM (available at Barnes and Noble)

Same sex marriage -
Jesus's position - no according to Lev 18:22, Rom 1, 1 Corinthian 6
FSM's position - yes according to footnote 2 of chapter 5 on page 66

If my religion, which requires faith, permits same sex marriage in accordance with footnote 2 of chapter 5 of page 66, and the US Constitution in Amendment 1 states the Congress will not establish a state religion, then does this mean that Church's of the FSM can legally marry same sex couples?

How would the founding fathers feel about the Republican push to Amend the US Constitution so that Pastafarians couldn't practice their religion?

Is the land which the israelites are occupying now really the promised land which is promised to them? israel and u's'a and saudi governments are trying to hide artefacts which prove undenyably that the promised land is in fact in saudi arabia around the border of yemen. These artefacts are legit. The proof undeniable. What do you think, is the 'promised land' of so called israel currently in the wrong place??? PS dont say israel was promised them when the country name israel is only a few decades old. The real promised land is not in Palestine!

This question is not speaking of a woman being a pastor of a church. It's an organization within a church that deals with women issues. Ex: Youth ministry, Men's ministry, etc.

Another question made me wonder what it would take for an Atheist to actually believe God existed. A global announcement heard by all in every language that he does exist? Some big guy with a beard in a robe coming down and making a person out of dirt? What would it take for you? What could you call real evidence?

again. An ungainly question I know, but I have met a number(prime number I think) of parents through my kids sports programs who have remarried and are now having children, nine years apart( My children are nine). One of my son's teammates(football, entering 4th grade) has a mother(don't we all) who is expecting the birth of his sister in October. Would you go it all through again? I am a guy, and I would not. Been there done that.
