I have worked hard my whole life and am kicking back. My husband runs our business (Real Estate) and I have taken time off since kids are grown. If I work I want fulfillment first as I don't really need the money. I want to grow and help others. I have done tons of volunteer work over the years and have found it to be draining working with so many other personalities. Any other ideas?

Think about the wording of this question before you answer it. So Hitler is bad and Mother Teresa is good. according to whom? Oh and America is the greatest nation on earth. Once again according to whom. Isn't that our judgment? But I thought judging was wrong?

In a previous question, I was censored because I assumed Atheists, didn't or perhapes couldn't have spiritual experiences even though they may have the same temporal experience that could/would percipitate a spiritual experience in a believer.
Is my assumption wrong, do Atheists have spiritual experiences? If so, how can they still be Atheists? Set me straight on this.

Barcelona and Chelsea are now beginning their game, in the Champions League. I was a Barcanut, then moved on to a Chelsea nut..... should I pray for a tie? This is a joke. Please, no admonishing for being vain, I know I am. Just a soccer (football for the rest of the world) fan...

Paul was Rabbi Saul a great rabbi as told in Acts-met the spirit of Jesus on the road to demascus-and let Jesus in the Holy Spirit-the promised comforter into his heart-left killing christians as when he held the cloaks while steven was stoned to death for believing in Jesus.

ok now get this-Now Paul as the bible says went preaching everywhere about Jesus -he got stonned and beaten but he didnt quit-he could have and been a great rabbi again-He said "I'm the least worthy of all, because I persecuted the church of Jesus." He went on to say "For me to live is the Messiah and to die is gain."
In prison as he says and history proves he wrote much of the bible-and told others to love their enemies just as Jesus had taught- that doesnt mean Mohamad was to marry a little 9 year old girl-that isnt LOVE-it means to care about others, even if they hate you-to love them and share the saving grace of Jesus amazing grace

do muslims sing amazing grace in the islam chapel in prison?????

OK so you pick some guy up at a club or whatever. Forget what he wants to do or how he acts, if YOU could decide how things would go, would you make out and kiss and stuff or not? Would you hang out afterwards or leave right away? Would you spend lots of time on foreplay or just dive right on it? In short, what's your style when you hook up?

from the comforter,

In the New Testament, the only mediator in the strict sense of the word is Christ mention in Timothy 2:5. We can teach each other and pray for each other, but no priest, saint and not even Mary is a necessary mediator between people and God. That role belongs to Christ alone.

I don't need any answer taken from any man made Catechism.

I and others have posted obvious, over-the-top satirical/sarcastic questions and the sarcastically-deficient crowd always chimes in with literalism. How can we help them?

No offense intended, but please do not answer this question if you are an evangelical christian. Did Jesus ever travel to India to learn anything, ie: meditation, or anything else?
