and not be a hypocrite? Isn't this also going against the "judge not" part of your belief system, and the admonition to treat others as you would like to be treated?

It seems very two-faced to me. Shouldn't true Christians work for justice, tolerance, peace and equality? WWJD?

Please reply with your own thoughts. Cutting and pasting, although expedient, demonstrates laziness and a lack of rational logic. You're smarter than that, aren't you? :o) Besides, I've read the bible - so have most of the folks in this posting category.

Love, nature vs nuture

evolution? god? chemicals? parents? attraction?

Is it possible a man could love a woman 1700 miles away, never laying eyes on her, never smelling her, never touching her,

Is love something mental, physical, spiritual?

Are you living a lie constantly, trying to conform to your society's "rules", or do you feel that you are truly original? If you feel you are yourself all the time, are you alienated in any way by the people around you, even close people, family members? how are you oprigianl, or how do you live your lie?

i wear jeans and a black metallica hoodie that has a bit of colour on it and i'm still called a hippie goth or emo
and emo is a person (i wouldn't even know the person)who listens to emotional rock and i don't mind people saying that because i do but these people have another definition for emo :someone who slits there wrists and they contradict themselves when they say I'm a hippie goth cause goths wear all black and hippies wear colourful clothes i hear the word emo so much it is nearly as normal for me to say as the word "the".It's getting really annoying cause they can't say it to your face they just mumble it or cough it.p.s i don't think i should have to change who i am because some people don't like individuality.

Well, did you? Tonight I just had one about heaven and now I cant get over it.It was very weird. Ill explain:

1.I somehow die with my friend at the same time(cant remember how), this is odd because yesterday I invited him to hang out at my house, I think he was in there because of that.

2.I end up in heaven with him. Many other people surround me.

3. It seems as if we almost have a "tour" of heaven.

4. Along the way, my friend wont stop complaining he is there.
I said, "There's nothing you can do about it. YOURE DEAD!"

5. He is still complaining, I suspect it is just a dream, and I tell him.

6. He says "Lets try to wake up". So then, I wake up.

7.I go downstairs and he is there. He says he just told everyone about the dream.

8.I wake up. I realize that me waking up before was also the dream. This time it was real.

9.I immediatley go and type this.

Heaven was very nice, surrounded by purple sunset skys and clouds. Did anyone else? Please dont call me weird

Ive heard so much about Jesus Christ's return being right around the corner but Ive been studying biblical prophecy and i dont think its as soon as most are making it out to be. People are getting all crazy about the revived roman empire.. but if you study revelation youll realize that each of the 4 ancient empires will be revived in some sense, ( Babylonian, the Medes, Persia, and Alexander the Great’s Empire)... Babylon is Iraq.. last time i checked Iraq was nowhere near a rich flourishing country described in the book of revelations.. Iraq has the potential to be a middle eastern super power but not in the next 10 years at least... maybe 20 years .. maybe 500 years.


to atheists who dont believe biblical prophecy: if in the future you saw the Iraq , that is in shambles, become a middle eastern power and the 3 other empires mentioned in the book of Daniel revived would it (at least )make you think hmm maybe there is some truth to the bible after all .. ?

I find the idea completely disgusting, but I don't want to go against God. What if it's part of his plan, or something?

example, when I said that even though I was a Christian minister for 15 years, I am no longer a christian and see that Jesus was just a myth, i get responses like this:
"I can tell that you have not accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord.

If you did you would know that a Christian is a new creation and can not now or ever recreate himself/herself."
or
"Do you mean x-church members?
I have seen x-church members shunned.
I don't know any x-Christians.
I don't think there is such a thing."
That first guy tried to exhort me to come to Jesus and repent and receive salvation for real, even though the bible says:
Hebrews 6:4-8

For in the case of those who have once been enlightened and have tasted of the heavenly gift and have been made partakers of the Holy Spirit, 5 and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, 6 and then have fallen away, it is impossible to renew them again to repentance

I know many people on here are atheist, but if these two characters existed then would Satan be more powerful as doing bad seems to be much easier than following God's path

It is put forth as the greatest achievement of man...when someone merges into the the Present loosing all sense of self and the self (ego) is gone. They will tell you that themselves. The individual is lost and the consciousness merges into the Oneness of Being, which they call the Self, and they see that as a good thing.

In the plan of God the ego is a part of the human experience, and is transformed through Love, not extinction, or dissolving of boundaries.

What do you think?
