I would suggest highly that all the members of the R & S section run out and rent, "What the Bleep." It will impact your view of reality and perhaps leave you with the conclusion that I drew from it with regard to religion. Being,

It's All Correct. It's All Right. It's All True.

The film deals with Quantum Physics and how this impacts us personally as well as our physical reality. What astonished me was that it proves what the ancient Vedic Seers proposed. Our reality is an illusion. Consequenly, what we firmly believe becomes our reality - therefore we are the creators of our own reality.

As a result of this mind-opening experience, I've decided not to participate in the continual fighting that goes on here over what religion is the ultimate truth. It's true for the one who believes it's true. They create their own reality so it is true within that reality. So, to leave you with a question,

Given that you are a creator, the one and only creator of your reality,

Are members of the Jehovah's Witnesses brainwashed into thinking their religion and their beliefs are the only and absolute "truths"?

Do members receive anything when they find someone who agrees to do a "Bible Study"?

Why do they pressure someone to "convert"? Do members receive something when someone they "brought in" "converts"?

All homosexuals are not religious and should not profess to be christian/muslim whatever! I don't care what they do in their personal lives....just cause they were born into a religious family does not mean they can say i'm a "christian gay" or whatever!A christian by definition cannot be a homosexual!

"In a 1982 survey of 68 major scienttific journals showed that of the 135,000 scientific manuscripts submitted to these journals only 18 were on creation "science". Not one of these 18 manuscripts was of suitable standard for publication." If creation "science" wants to be taught along side real science in schools shouldn't its research be able to stand up to the scrutiny and inquiry of other scientists and be eligible for publication in main stream science journals? Is it the case that creation "science" is bunkum?

I took a required evolutionary biology class in college couple yrs ago... and I didnt quite disregard my faith but it made me ask more questions. I know the christian and muslim faiths are similar in the evolution of man. My question is that is there a compromise with either of the two? Or maybe an explanation? Please dont respond with the 'dont ask questions just believe' answers. Thanks

I think it's good to remember how many women stood beneath the cross with Jesus compared to how many men did. Do you agree?

My husband, a moderate Muslim and I were fine for 7 yrs with little religious conflict. Of course, he encouraged me to convert to Islam, brought me reading materials, etc but that's all. I don't believe in any organized religions as he knew from our first date. Now his adult/almost adult kids live with us 24/7 b/c their mother is ill. They are here for good and much more extreme Muslims. From Africa, the boys make comments about how “American women have too much freedom!”, “Anytime women work together there will be many, many problems”. They tell me the "bad" ways of Christians and ANY non-Muslims. People who smoke, drink wine etc. are openly judged as “bad”/“evil”. YET they will ONLY watch VIOLENT movies. Yet if a husband/wife do a 3 second kiss in an airport they fast forward the DVD, act offended/repulsed at the “unclean actions”. YET when we leave home they (males 18, 20) order xxx hardcore PORN! I'm thinking WTF? Do I confront the this...or try to ignore it tho it enrages me...?
