I had a dream last night, well really this morning, and towards the end of the dream I heard someone tell another about about the book of Joseph, and particurly a chapter about a son not being his son, So automaticly I thought Jesus and Joseph, so I woke up and looked it up and the only thing I found about Joseph, was The book of Joseph Smith, who as u know is the Morman prophet so to speak.

Those words ring in my head now, and I need to know if there is a gospel r book of Joseph, I know there is not one in the bible, or to my knowledge there is no such book titled this within the lost or forgotten books of christanity, so I need to know if there is a refferance some where within these lost and forgotten books, or within other religious text.

Im giving out candy and the theme isnt spooky really. I dont want the slow haunty sounds with the bats and evil laughs and crap. Im going to be a neon ragdoll and my husband is going to be a neon clown. We have lots of bright colors, glowsticks, and black lights everywhere so Im looking for 80's music or good techno to play. I like the spooky sounds but I want something upbeat to go along with the theme.

Clearly some sins are smaller than other ones. Like stealing a pen from work is a smaller sin than gunning down all your coworkers, right?

Why do muslims take such offence at jokes and insults at their religion. Surely they can rise above it or ignore it like everyone else does. Catholics didn't put a fatwa on the writers of Father Ted which was deeply offensive to the catholic faith (but very funny) and the Monty Python lads didn't get their throats cut for the Life of Brian. How would Islam react to Mulla Ted or the Life of Aqmed and don't you think it's about time one of the moderate muslims we keep hearing about (although I've never see one) had the guts to do something about it.

In Luke 4:1-13 and Matthew 4:1-11, I am trying to understand if
Jesus was tempted to do? Did Jesus face the same temptations that you and I face (lying, stealing, pride, lust, etc.)? Could Jesus have sinned when He was tempted?

Personally I like to think of myself as classless. Having recently become ill my income is now low. By education and interests I suppose I'd be classified as middle class. In day to day life I've always seemed to have the ability to get on with people from all kinds of backgrounds and have worked as a hospital porter, merchant seaman and college lecturer among other things.

Please listen to my story, before answering. I know it's long,but bare with me.
My father whom is no longer with me, when I was young he turned me on to bands like Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, Helloween, adn authors like Allister Crowley, whom I read, but did not find his words to be truthful in my heart.
So, I decided the more fundamental approaches of Christianity was for me, but to no avail it did not answer the many questions of my inquisitive mind. So I studied many religions in search of meaning, and still found nothing. I met a Reiki Master, and found so much truth in her "non teachings" but from her example of living life.
My father who for many years believed himself to be an atheist, and I always respected his views, after many years of drug abuse found himself at death's door, with a virus called Hiv, and a disease called Cancer.
It was then that my dad was open for anything, and I gave him a book called "conversations with god" At first he rejected it, but I told him
