Society & Culture - 27 August 2006

From this website: http://www.earlychristianwritings.com/thomas.html, which do you reccomend? This is not a question about your opinion on the Gospel of Thomas. I am not even asking for religious reasons, so don't start preaching its validity or not. I just want to know which one is easiest to understand and probably closest to the original text. My question has nothing to do with the bible or any other gospels. I'm just interested in a neat old document.

Fact: Hitler would be in Heaven if he repented and did not commit suicide (and we only have Stalin's word that Hitler commited suicide).

Fact: Revelation 21:8 states "the ...unbelieving...shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brmstone: which is the second death."

Fact: Jews do not believe in the divinity of Jesus.

Want to join a religion that allows Hitler into Heaven while condemning all his Jewish victims to Hell?

I have dreams sometimes and sometimes those dreams actually happen. I mean the dreams play out in real life EXACTLY how they played out when I dreamt them. I am not having bizzare dreams or anything but say I was talking to my friend at a specific location, at a specific time, and about a specific topic I would stop talking because it would occure to me that I dreamt this incidence. And even in the dream I dreamt that i stopped talking to explain to my friend that i dreamt about dreaming our conversation. It is extremey weird. And I'm not the only person that I know that this happens to. It also happens to my brother and my close friends. And don't say that i am having de ja vu. De ja vu is when you feel like you have been somewhere or felt you talked to somebody before
For me I dream the situation and then later i realize that i have dreamt about it. And it's not like i don't remember having the dream in the first place and then all of a sudden i remember out of the blue.

I am always told to refer to Richard Dawkins, and yet mocked when I tell evolutionists to read the Bible. You guys really have no clue.

This is no joke. I dreamt that a bright figure was talking to me and it told me to fill one shoe with rasberry slushy and dunk a hamster in it. People say God should never be questioned but I'm not sure what purpose this serves other than to annoy the hamster. Do you think I should do it or not?

Example: arranged letters in your alphabet soup, a message on your answering machine, wrapped with dead fish, singing and dancing Christmas elf telegram, a strange new tattoo...

How much of your faith reflects an emotional contentment or a sense of connection with a faith community?

Or the corollary, even if some of the teachings slide a bit beyond rational thought, are you willing to overlook these tidbits because the emotional fulfillment seems worth it?

How are they so well versed and chummy with evil that they know him better than God? If you say anything that isn't qoutable from a holy book they are quick to set you straight, yet they non stop do that themselves. Out of body is of the devil, UFO's are of the devil, some other religion is of the devil, but they can't "script it" like they do their personal beliefs. Why oh why?

"And when he was gone forth into the way, there came one running, and kneeled to him, and asked him, Good Master, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life? And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God." [Mark 10:18]

I ask this question because I recently came across a disturbing answer to a question, that essentially said blacks should move on and stop living in the past. NEWS FLASH racism is far from in the past its still occuring and quite prevalent in today's society! Insights on this topic would be appreciated.

There are so many programs out there to discredit ufo's and ghosts,etc. Why not discredit these phony preachers on TV that only tell you what you want to hear to get you to send in your money to them? And the whole time you are getting poorer while they are getting richer.
