I don't believe that the book of Revelations is a book of doom and gloom of the last days... Do you really believe that what the book of Revelations says is what literally is going to happen? If not, what is your interpretation of this book?

I want something low key, not complicated and something with a group theme. Me and my two best friends want to be something together, but we have very few ideas. Does anyone have suggestions?

The three bodies (earthly, astral, and ether -the fourth one being spiritual) remain with the soul except for the earthly body whci integrates with the original five elements. The astral plane where normally our soul goes, is described as a PEACEFUL place where we can expand our experiences for a better and higher life through our spiritual teachers, and if we so wish can reurn to the earth depending the availibility of place to conceive. After reading all these articles on Google's "mistery of Life after death" i am begining to feel no fear of death, as we all will be having a wonderful oppertunity to move forward in astral plane and in aastral body, and further there is no such thing as Hell which is a word coined by some selfish people for the monetary gains. Bhagvad Gita eloborates on this subject, which should be a good reading not only for Hindus but world at large. II am certainly looking forward to have further light on the subject from qualified and serious scholars

If its true gay people are born gay, and the survival of the fitest(evolution) theory is true, does this equate? Is'nt reproduction is the surest way to continue a species. Just wonder what you all think.

Is the conquering of the FSM by copious amounts of tomato sauce and layers of grated cheese a good example of replacement theology? Especially when the cheese comes out on top, and stands well alone?

Many people who answered my previous question ask me to provide additional info so I am going to state the question again with a link on the bottom for reference.*

When Jesus died on the cross it is stated that the ground opened and all the dead who died while Jesus was alive rose from the dead and walked among the living for three days in view of everyone and than were taking up to heaven.
Hence why he has followers 2000 years later.
The Bible also calls for the second coming of Jesus accompanied by the second resurrection.
Is this a common belief and if not why not?

*"“And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;
And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose, And came out of the graves after his [Jesus’] resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.
Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, ‘Truly this was the Son of God.’”
• Matthew 27:51–54

just a theory that popped into my head. I know i will get alot of flack, especially from atheist. I don't know much about muslims, accept the extremist we all hear about. My question is, could there be a secret government, elite force, or plans, that use muslims as an excuse to provoke tensions between the Christians and muslims? look at the entire picture of what is happening in the world, and how past leaders have used others for the purpose to start wars by blaming them for attacks, when it was really an inside job, a set up by those in power. It seems like the world is a chess board game and someone is choosing their pawns to play this game, with the goal of creating chaos, and for an excuse to create a new order, which many refer to as a world government, in which only a few elite families from an ancient blood line will control.

John 14:28. He admitted that he is inferior to his father.

1Corintians 11:3 , which was written after Christ ascended to heaven, says that God is supereme over Christ ( Today's English Bible 1966 Catholic Edition)

John 20:17. Christ admitted that he is a mere worshipper of God, his Father.

So, how do you dispute these Biblical citations that indicate that your belief in the Trinity is unbiblical?

No!No!No! Not why, you don't go to church or why you are not religious. I know you are a good decent non- judgemental citizen, but you need to answer this quest.

In Judaism it is said that to save one life is to save the world. What about saving animals' lives? Does that count?

The first ones to lead a break with the Catholic Church in the 16th century Protestant reformation-Luther, Calvin, and Zwingli-all believed in the perpetual virginity of Mary, the mother of Jesus. Why don't Protestants today believe what the first Protestants believed about Mary?
