First I must lmao.
Then ask why would there be an after life, if god just presumes that you will sin?
Would he not presume that you would sin after life also.
I mean come on, if not,
Why not just make us live in the after life? What is the point of all that.
If he made us to play with why didn't he just make it in his little invisible world.
There is no reason to make anything out of his world.
That's like proving the after life is contradictory to your normal assumptions of Christianity.
Why would god make anything live forever if he could of just done it in the first place?
This is telling me he gave bodily form for no apparent reason whats over.
I have people telling me becuz of A TASK, you could do those tasks in the after life which is eternity? Who ever gave me those answers to my last question is obviously brain washed beyond belief.
I AM PUTTING THIS ONE IN MY BOOK!
A Thought just occurred to me, once in heaven there is no bad or good.
SO That's not the answer.

MY alter ego, anthonyinkc-that's me-asked a series of questions about the materialistic lives of some of America's biggest tv preachers. I got a very negative response from some fans of multimillionaire televangelists. I used reputable links from news sites, and other christian websites to prove my point about the lives of these millionaires.

For example, Jerry Falwell recieving 3.5 million from Rev. Moon-who claims he's the real messiah. And Benny Hinn and Joyce Meyer's very, very rich lives-combined they own 9 MANSIONS! Or Jesse Duplantis buying a 18 million dollar jet-while his city was underwater from Katrina. And his ministry was claiming near poverty to help his neighbors.

Of course love of material goods, and riches is forbidden in the bible. But some people on here defended their rich lifestyles, false revelations supposedly direct from God, etc.

So to make them happy, my question is....WHO IS YOUR FAVORITE MULTIMILLIONAIRE TELEVANGELIST?

I've only ever seen 1 gay film and that was Hellbent, which was a gay horror film. Quite good, a fit lad in it too (the one with the bike!) Any recommendations?

When they were burning witches and torturing heretics and putting people to death for a host of reasons which were based in "god" or religion. Where is the shame and fury over how wrong they once were on SO many things..................

I'm not talking about something you were taught, or believe because you just happened to form an opinion. Have you ever actually seen, experienced, or felt something that you can't account for, other than to say there is a God? An event that convinced you?

I asked what the big deal is with the 10 commandment displays, and in respone, I got this gem:

"This is your own opinion, u saying murdering someone isnt a big deal? Hey I just capped this police, no big deal."


Am I the only one here who thinks that it's possible to simultaneously (1) want the government to be religiously neutral and (2) also be against murder ?

On a scale of 1 to 10, how ignorant was this person's answer?

If, for example, you're Christian and you see a picture of Christ: the face in the picture looking exactly like the real Jesus is a little beside the point. Or is it?

The spiritul connection, I would think has to do more with forgiveness than anything else. Or is it all about a man? Someone who lived in Isreal? Someone who lived between certain dates in history?

What I'm really asking is where details end and the SPIRIT of the story begins. Is it really important what kind of fruit was in the Garden of Eden? Or, for that matter, even if the story is literal?

ISN'T THE WHOLE THING MORE ABOUT A MESSAGE WITH A MEANING THAN who's right, and who wins the contest for knowing everything there is to know? Does God judge us by who guesses riddles the best? Or is it more about the heart - more about the spirt of the person?

Flare, cropped, boot cut, high rise and the muffin-top inducing low rise. We've tried many styles of jeans. This season the thigh-hugging skinny jean is all the rage. Is this for you?

Willys cynical thought for the fugging day;

Puritanism: The haunting fear that someone somewhere may be freaking happy!

"The nerve endings," said Gabriel. "How many will I put in her hands?"

"How many did we put in Adam?" asked The Lord.

"Two-hundred, O Mighty One," replied Gabriel.

"Then we shall do the same for this woman," said The Lord.

"How many nerve endings should we put in woman's genitals," inquired Gabriel.

"How many did we put in Adam?" asked The Lord.

"Four-hundred and twenty, O Mighty One," replied Gabriel.

"Of course. We did want Adam to have a means of receiving extra pleasure in his life, didn't we? Do the same for woman," said The Lord.

"Yes, O Great Lord," said Gabriel.

"No, wait!" said The Lord. "Screw it, give her ten-thousand. I want her to scream out my name."
