Why is it so hard for some people to believe in such things as Ghosts and Evil spirits, But not god. isn't it just as plausable to believe the world was created by God and not a Giant Explosion? I understand that there are alot of holes in the Religious Belief. But aren't there just as many in the Scientific Beliefs?

Can someone that's 14 years old actually be an atheist? How can they be mature enough or know enough to make a judgement like that??How can someone determine that there is no God when they have never read the bible or been to church?

How does it work? Does your God speak to you directly? And, if so, does your moral code change daily, or, do you write his instructions down so you can remember & follow them?

Can you offer any specific examples that demonstrate the superiority of this moral code?

Some friends of mine hav recently told me of sightings of Canine apparitions with 8-12 eyes. One claims to see a black jackal, most of them see wolves. The strange thing is that i never see them, but I'm always around when this happens.

Now, my question is, has anyone ever had any encounters with any such canine? The usual descriptions are Black-fured canines with 8 to 12 yellow eyes (ruling out the possibility of celtic black dogs, as they have red eyes (although most of my friends are of irish descent o-o)). The jackals are often said to have molars, which seems to be important if they notice this.

Also, I would like to know the general area of anyone who has seen these, as I am trying to determine if it's something limited to only my area.

Any info would be of great help. And none of that "LOL gte a life" crap either. I am in need of serious answers, and whther a majority of people believe it or not, I've witnessed stranger stuff, so I have no reason to doubt this.

Thanks.

"Jesus Son Of Mary" promoting Islam in the quran brings about 7 years of peace on earth. Is this the Antichrist to non muslims? Who brings 7 years of hell on earth?

Muslims antichrist appears to be Jesus Son Of Mary who promotes Christanity?

I'm asking this in the religion and spirituality section because I specifically would like to hear from the people in this section on this question.

Let's face it, what do these points do for us really, other than tell us and others what level (of the 7) we are on. It might give us more credibility, but you get nothing for moving to the next level, other than the status symbol.

Also, I've had times where I've had two (or more) equally good answers and the 2nd choice on down gets the same amount of points as the lousy answers.

What would you think if based on your level, you could have an option to donate between one to fiften points for any good answer? If that was a feature would you use it?

It might be a way to ensure some better thought out replies?

What do you think about this idea?

we should not be judged by the clothes we wear. (yet clothes make the man)
we may be judged by the beliefs we hold. (we hold them to be self-evident, or we wear them every sunday)
we are almost always judged by the company we keep. fair or not?

extra credit: between the 3, why the difference? is there a difference?
