Or lots of rich christians.. or lots of mountains in the sea? etc


And Jesus answered and said to them, "Truly I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, `Be taken up and cast into the sea,' it will happen. "And all things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive." (Matthew 21:21-22 NAS)
Amen, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, 'Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen, it shall be done for him. Therefore I tell you, all that you ask for in prayer, believe that you will receive it and it shall be yours. (Mark 11:24-25 NAB)
And whatever you ask in my name, I will do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything of me in my name, I will do it. (John 14:13-14 NAB)

how can you really know for sure if a person is a psychic or medium or just a fake wannabe?

This question, by its nature, won't make you change your life. It is, however, asking, if on yahoo answers, what would happen, if you read a question, that made you stop in your mind, and think, and maybe laugh a bit, or cry a bit, and it made how you view the world change and become upside down, or at least, a completely different perspective, maybe not changing your belief, but understanding how someone could belief something different than what you have ever imagined before?

This has happened to me here on yahoo answers. I know it has happened to other people. Once in a while people read something I ask or answer and it changes them.

Have you, in your mind's eye, allowed for such a change? If so, that's addictive. If not, I pity you, you are lost. Many will know what I mean by this.

What if someone reads this question and for the first time, realizes, they don't know everything, and maybe need to be open to change. Would Socrates jump from his grave to dance for joy?

I am a 21 year old catholic and I have a fear of evil or the devil trying to hurt me before I go to bed.. Or whenever it is dark. I pray and I still am in fear what can I do. My cousin told me a story that when she was little she listened to devil music and she went to slep and woke up to red hands curling her toes back. Her mom came in and had to do the rosary and it stopped. My aunt said that was true. Help

I have been promised great merits and happy destiny and now all that has gone in deep water. Now Buddhist search for a new votary of the Lotus Sutra who will gain all my merits and I have suffered all condemnation because of the Lotus Sutra.
for sure this proverb is true: "because one will see the dark, the other will see the light" it means that some people are happy because some others suffers for them.
I am deeply dissapointed by Buddhism.

Deal with it. We have a common ancestor with apes.

Now I know some of you are going to ask "if we came from monkeys why are there still monkeys?" They youre going to try to tell me that we came from dirt (or dust)

Well, if we came from dirt why is there still dirt? If women come from ribs then why are there still ribs?

Then youll claim that Darwin admitted he was wrong. But you leave out the part where it was a priest who told everyone he had admitted he was wrong.

Why are you people such idiots when it comes to reality?

Everyone keeps going on in here about heaven and hell.

What do I have to do to go to purgatory? I'm lazy and it just sounds like a lot less effort...

Followers of all the religions believe in one God or Allah. But at the same time they say "their Allah" or "their God", which means that they do not believe in one Allah or God but think that the God or Allah of different religions is different. So what do you say . . .

I just read the thread about Britain, and many wrote "I love the accents." Uh, have you heard the Brummie accent?

Don't get me wrong. I love the accents too, but only some of them. Americans seem to think there is only one accent in Britain, which is the posh Queen's English. And all Brits drink tea at 4 pm and wear suits of course...

This is why only a fraction of Americans actually have passports and are worldly...the rest's idea of a vacation is to Wal-mart.

(And before you guys insult me--bringing such hilarity--my mother is English and I have lived there. My fiance is also English.)

C'mon, you know you want to insult me....for telling the truth.

I've been looking for a roommate for a while. But I don't know how to ask people I meet from the start if they are Christians or not. I live in Mexico, and a lot people believe in saints, and that's what I want to avoid. My best friend, and old roommate is an atheist, he's not Christian, but at least I don't have to hear him talk about saints and catholicism like a lot of people here in Mexico.

I'm looking for a Christian roommate, but I just don't know how to ask people that from the start.
