seriously, I have never sinned .
estrangement from god (There is no God, so no sin)
an act that is regarded by theologians as a transgression of God's will
Sin has been a term most usually used in a religious context, and today describes any lack of conformity to the will of God; especially, any willful disregard for the norms revealed by God is a sin. (Since God hasn't revealed anything how can I have sinned against him?)

If us Atheists have more knowledge about religion, How could we be so wrong?

Why is that when you post a serious question, people give you rude answers? Do they just not care that they are hurting another person, or does that pleasure them?

I am thirteen and not interested in eating my candy. (No one needs all that junk). What can I do with it- to help someone out? Help people out? Are there any organizations? I don't want to trick-or-treat for money and I may eat a few pieces. What could I do for a good cause?

What does it mean? I've heard people talking about eating Kosher and I know it has something to do with the Hebrew religion but that's all I do know. I don't understand the rest of it? Do you?
If a food is Kosher, is it the brand name or a type of diet?

John seems to say the day before
19:14-16
And it was the preparation of the passover, and about the sixth hour: and he saith unto the Jews, Behold your King! But they cried out, Away with him, away with him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Caesar. Then delivered he him therefore unto them to be crucified.


And Mark, the day after
Mark 14:12
And the first day of unleavened bread, when they killed the passover, his disciples said unto him, Where wilt thou that we go and prepare that thou mayest eat the passover?
15:25
And it was the third hour, and they crucified him.

My boyfriend and I want to go to a party tonight, of course with alcohol, but we aren't 21, and even though we aren't driving, we're wondering if we should or not? How do ya think God sees that? Just as bad as smoking pot?

even is one.
In the Bible, in 2 Kings, ch 2, vs 23 and 24. I've never really understood this. I know the kids were making fun of Elisha for being bald but..
bears? Isn't that a little extreme?

Athesists: Do NOT try to tell me how my religion of faith is false or you will be reported! Keep it to yourself!

Only thinking answers please, no scripture or flaming.

And please, think outside the "to worship god" box.

Can anybody counter the argument that God did it for self-fufilling needs of veneration? It seem to me that is the purpose given to us, worship him or hell awaits.

So why would God create a planet of people for the sole purpose of worship only? Seems rather egotistical

He had three doctorate degrees (Philosophy, Theology, and Medicine). In theology, his work is known for historical studies of the New Testament. His work in philosophy, involved Neitzsche and St. Francis of Assisi into an ethical stance on respect for life. His work in medicine took him to Africa, treating thousands of people, many with leprosy. He also was an accomplished organist and became a well known interpreter of Bach by reassessing the composers religious intentions. CD's of his performances are still available.

Could Deepak Chopra convince anyone earlier that we can live forever ? So much for "AGELESS Body, TIMELESS Mind". Can he live forever or is he facing his own mortality ? Is that why he's now reinvented himself as an authority on "Life after DEATH". Where is this all leading for a few gullibles that listen to him ?

According to Deepak Chopra, “we are divinity in disguise, and the gods and goddesses in embryo that are contained within us seek to be fully materialized. ..."

In the beginning, a false spirit told us the same, holding out the same reward of eternal life through the "divinity" within.

Genesis 3:4 Satan said to the woman, 'You will certainly NOT DIE!
Really, God knows that on the day you eat from it, your eyes will be opened, and you will be LIKE GOD, knowing good and evil.'

Ages have passed and we still DIE.

On the other hand, Chopra is invoking the language of sophistry in order to make his old ideas appear scientific. Unfortunately, this is the stuff of pseudoscience precisely because it is not related to the methods, experiments, or findings of traditional science. Similar to his metaphysical claims, Chopra offers no real definitions, reasons, or elaborations for his physical claims. Instead, he throws a scientific term around here and there, and it lies there isolated, vague, and virtually meaningless... other than the fact that it creates a thin air of scientific connotation which would only convince the least learned of science and its method. Would anyone is his RIGHT mind believe his claims ?
