nothing ever goes as planned. My whole life has been nothing but pain and confusion.
I go to church for a while but then I just stop goin. I pray and then I stop for a while.
I think my biggest down fall is that I continuosly sleep with my fiance' all thou we are not married yet. I have brought this up to him before about how I feel guilty afterwards, but he says we are getting married so it shouldn't matter. And I go along with it and thats when things begin to crumble in my life.
Therefore how am I supposed to keep faith? I try but things only seems to get worse.
I know there are people out there that have it worse than me and I know God will not put anything on us we can't handle.... But I feel like I'm about to have a nervous breakdown.

Except in a vacumn, the glass is always full of something. In presenting the half-full, half empty question one is just looking for a means of expressing their philosophic outlook. Right?

Not all wiccans are witches for those who do not know....but I don't believe I've ever met a witch that wasn't wiccan. I am also interested in how you chose your path and what the path is.

Does pre-destination mean He already planned everything beforehand or He just know it all? Isn't "knowing" equivalent to "planning"? e.g: He knows that you'll be a monk at the age of 40, do you still have choice to contradict what He knows?

Wasn't Jesus, Muhammad and Buddha all about Peace, Love, Compassion and Understanding? How can there be any room to hate anything or anyone in the hearts and minds of true believers?

Too many people now believe Islam is a violent religion. This huge lie is covering up the truth of a truly peaceful religion and people. Will non-violent protests against terrorist have a positive result in making them realize what they are doing is wrong and hurting the image of Islam? I don't think they realize that most Muslims hate what the terrorists stand for. Being a Muslim born in America, I think Islam is a wonderful way of life that brings spiritual and mental happiness and satisfaction to one's self. Too many people are clouded by the media and it's coverage of these awful terrorists.

We see pictures of Jesus as being white. If Jesus is the son of God, that means God is white. Why does God have to be white? Why cant he be Black or Asian? Is it because God is the white man's God? I'm not being cold. I am just curious. What do you think?

I recently learned that the image of jesus that is displayed just about everywhere is actually copied from an image of zeus from the parthenon, a greek structure. Jesus looked like a dark-skinned semetic,(which is the same ethnic group that sadamn hussain belongs to). So, does it offend you that jesus's common image is actually a pagan god, and he really resembles sadamn much more, a muslim?

My father-in-law was a lutheran pastor. When his daughter commited suicide the congregation and the whole family acted like she was in heaven with god and jesus and all of that. Lutherans are a sect of christianity...and christians believe that if you commit suicide you go to hell. When I asked him if lutherans believe in hell he said yes, but that they don't believe anyone actually goes there after they die. If that is true, what is the point of living a good life if everyone gets to go to heaven afterwords?

Someone please explain this to me?

... others keep posting the same answer over and over? I've seen this happen where no 2nd answer was posted for several minutes after the 1st -- so the copycats HAD to see the 1st answer.

Is this in hopes that the asker will randomly give the 4th answerer the points or what?

First only serious intellectual answers please.
Is it really Good vs evil...or something else? And is the Devil to be equated with God? i.e in power, absoluteness. I'd like to hear some thoughts on what other religions say of the devil...more specficially his attributes his birth his history. For Muslims i know the islamic history i'd like to hear what others have to say...and I will respond appropriately. Thank u
