I mentioned that I was reading a book about Buddism and one lady almost bit my head off!!!! I was raised a Christian but I think lots of other religions have something to teach us. What's the big deal -- does that make me a bad Christian?

There is NOTHING in the New Testament that says that you must also:
*Hate gays
*Fight for elimination of people's RIGHT to choose who they are and what they think
*Kill abortion doctors and bomb clinics, or support people who do
*Demand the death penalty for just about anything that irritates you (Jesus was real pointed and direct on this issue, if you recall) if you're going to be pro-life, don't be hypocritical about it!!
*Cheer for foreign wars just because it makes great after-church TV
*condemn everyone who is intellectual enough to UNDERSTAND and clearly follow real objective science. (the Earth is NOT 6500 years old!)

YOU have twisted the message of Jesus into something ugly and sinister.

It's a hypothetical.

What would it take for you to conclude that god does not exist?

What would you have to see?
What would have to happen?

Is there *anything at all* that would cause you to lose faith in your god?

How do we know that an experience is God?

How do we define it?

Is experience of God more than a feeling? Is it out-of-the-ordinary experience, or is it something like love?

Does deep experience of God come only through meditation/prayer, or does it sometimes come unexpectedly, or in times of deep emotion?

For you, personally, what is experience of GOD?

Okay, people say that a boy needs a man/or a father to show him how to be like a man. But what about girls? Do girls need a mother figure? What are the long term effects of a mother-less girl?

are allowed to have? I asked an earlier question earlier regarding this same issue and one respondent wrote that I should just kill myself. Well, instead of that alternative I decided to get an education rather than breed and breed and breed and breed as some inconsiderate humans do. I am almost 35 and I have no children. My husband is 43 and we are now working on it. We only want to have enough to replace ourselves. I just think it is selfish to the highest degree to start pumping out the children when you are 15, and then blame everyone else for your financial woes. You know what - I don't feel sorry for you.

My husband is Active duty navy and we are getting stationed in Fallon, NV. I still need to finish college so we were thinknig about living in Reno since it's a bigger area and has the college and then my hubby would commute to Fallon for work.

How long of a drive would that be for him?
What's Reno like? Average rent? We'd prefer to find a single-family home for rent seeing as we have two dogs..
