I have seen many misunderstandings, half truths,and flat out lies about many faiths and beliefs. I have discovered much that I though about others faith was wrong as well. I am offering anyone and everyone a chance to dispel or correct un truths aout your faith.
Peace Be With You,

I am seeking alternate points of view to aid me in teaching others. I have my own theories, but I find that teaching only one way is unfair, restricting, and unethical. My question is this. How does divination work? Is it external or internal? Please back up any answer with personal experience or other reference.

For clarification, I have heard the typical smoke and mirrors and Devilry responses and find it useless to my purpose unless it is backed up by personal experience or holy text reference (specific chapter, verse, section, whatever, etc.)

Any experience with any form of divination (Oneiromancy, Tarot, Ouija, black mirror, candle meditation, I Ching, Runology, etc.) will work for me. Thank you for your help in advance.

Jesus told ye to be prepared, not stand and wait. Enjoy the gift that he hath bestowed upon ye, and know that salvation comes through death, not rapture. I promise the Raputre of only 144,000.

Study to show thyself approved unto God.

I have no doubt in my mind a Gay couple can love thier children. I have no doubt they can raise them. So with that said, just answer my question, no hateful remarks just educated answers with a lil back up.

My father showed me what a man is supposed to be, my mother did her best to show me what a woman is supposed to be, this effected my life more as a Teenager and a young adult. As a young child I just needed love and a lil direction, but we all know parenting gets a lil tougher when we hit those teenage/young adult years this is what I'm reffering to.

Now please answer this in the context of a child not being raised in an abusive home, becasue all of us were not abused, all of us did not have dead beat parents striaght/single/gay/whatever. I don't think we admit it enough but there are some good parents out thier that love thier children.

So a simple yes or no and why will suffice.

http://www.united-church.ca/marriage/resources/pdf/understanding.pdf

In the above link, the United Church of Canada, Canada's largest Protestant denomination, affirms their belief, based on Scripture, that marriages are holy and ordained by God regardless of the gender of the two individuals in question.

As Christians, they base this on the same book as other denominations use in condemning gay marriage and gay sexual activity.

My question is this: are they wrong? If you believe that they are, how can you be sure that your understanding of the Bible is superior to yours? Is it not possible that, from a Christian and Scriptural perspective, it is in fact you who is wrong?

After all, they may have asked the question, but your brain did the thinking and you came to the conclusion that there may be some doubt there. So why lash out against the person who made you think?

I am not trying to offend anyone by this question. I am just very curious to know. I have Catholics in my family but I am Evangelic.

When it's time to confess your sins, do you have to explain in detail the sins you committed?

Could you explain to me the process of this?

Thanks.

If it is does that mean if we don’t support what they do we are acting against God?
