Now we see and know there are cars, airplanes,TV, cell phones, and computers. How about earth and heaven and how they were formed and our real purpose in life?

Just imagine that you've got it all wrong. There is no god. What have you been doing all this time while the innocent starve and die?

It is possible no?

Come on be reasonable. It must have crossed your mind occasionally. What if you're just plain wrong.

If you haven't contemplated this then you have no imagination or are just not very bright.

P.S. I don't want a lecture, I want honesty.

Jesus said loving our loved ones is easy- where's the victory in that? We should love our ememies and do good for them. I am asking "everyone" can you find one good thing about the group of people or person you don't like? That's my challenge this morning.

Before 10 years the worst situation was not so hard compared to today. Every year, we see that from worst there is worser and that from hard there is harder. I know that there is harder than now but I do not want to see it.
From good there is always better but from bad there is always worse.
My dear friends, I have to explain to you something:
man can bear every situation. Man can go even throught hell. But I do not want to check such abilities of mine. I do not want to check how low I can go. I just want to protect myself.
You may say: "From the preacher of the Lotus Sutra we expect more that just complains and depression". However, I may say: "From the world I expected much more than condemnation and hatred".
When a tiny snowball on the hill turns to great ball of snow that can ruin much, things cannot change.
There is time things can change and times things cannot change.
I have prayed for days to change my karma. However, the things happened like in my worst nightmare. Why?

Is it because you don't know how to make an avatar? Is it because you are afraid of revealing too much of yourself? Please tell me - these smiley boxes are driving me crazy.

I ask to be shown the evidence for a god and people say "Look around you". What am I supposed to be looking at? I see a natural universe, in which all things happen without any apparent need for divine intervention. I see things that are satisfactorily explained by cosmology, and geology, and biology, but no need for theology. I don't see the laws of physics suspended for the benefit of believers in a particular god. I don't see amputated limbs magically restored, or falling planes suspended in mid-air, or evil constrained, not even the most horrific and sadistic torture of the most innocent children. I see plenty of attempts to distort, mis-translate and mis-represent religious scripture in order to claim that 'scientific miracles' are held within their pages, but never any plausible demonstration of divine knowledge. I see plenty of people argue that a created universe needs a creator, but no accompanying evidence that the universe is indeed created.

What should I be seeing?

This is not a question but a testimony.
you may ask inane questions as did i. me a knowitall scientist mocked, derided, stood against christianity with a passion. I set out disprove God, but only ended up finding Him. In the end it boiled down to these words taken from a song called "Your blood"
"your blood, speaks a better word, than all the empty claims, ive heard upon this earth, speaks righteousness for me and stands in my defence, Jesus its Your blood.
Your cross testifys in grace, tells of the Fathers heart to make a way for us. Now boldly we approach, not in earthly confidence , ITS ONLY BY YOUR BLOOD."
I was a liar, a theif, adulterer, murderer, I was lost in my own delusions of making money for the ends of matirial gains, which i did, i was lost in a false interlect that took me away from what was true and right, to swinging parties, drugs alcohol, living the so-called high life, i was rich, but really was naked, poor, wretched. But Jesus found me, and am changed forever.

Furthermore: he doth also utter:

"And the earth brought forth grass, every herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed should be in itself, after his kind, and I, God, saw that all things which I had made are good". (Moses 2:12)

So the Bible, God AND Moses, thinks its' fine to smoke pot/weed(what ever you want to call it) why is it still illegal? that is against God's will surely?!

all you have to do is look around you at all the misery, pain, and suffering....surely an all powerful, all seeing god would not let little children, and innocents suffer in this way....or is it that it's a pretend god, who always sides with the rich and the powerful......i'm lost..

"When the theologian governed the world, it was covered with huts and hovels for the man, palaces and cathedrals for the few...the poor were clad in rags and skins--they devoured crusts, and gnawed bones. The day of science dawned, and...there is more of value in the brain of an average man of today--of a master mechanic, of a chemist, of a naturalist, of an inventor, than there was in the brain of the world four hundred years ago.

These blessings did not fall from the skies. These benefits did not drop from the outstretched hands of priests. They were not found in cathedrals or behind altars--neither were they searched for with hold candles. They were not discovered by the closed eyes of prayer, nor did they come in answer to superstitious supplication. They are the children of freedom, the gifts of reason, observation and experience--and for them all, man is indebted to man."

Ingersoll's essay "God and the Constitution."

Please, all of the Lord, help me to think of a way to tell my sister - I have been accepting her homosexuality for years now, basically her whole life. She even has a "son" that she has call her "daddy"...Unfotunately, I do not want my little girls seeing this act of behavior any more! My mother has even confirmed with me that I shouldnt allow them to kiss or anything in my house, and I agree. It gets me sick to my stomach, although I have been accepting it for so long and do not know how to approach her. Please, everybody, let me know what to do. Thank you so much.
