I have a serious question, Well maybe it not a question maybe it is a statement.
Some people are so afraid of death, Like myself and maybe that's how I got to thinking aboot this
What if we are all already dead
What if when we die we all never relize it and just jump right into an after life
What if when we are walking down the street and some people we find like we know them was the last people to see us alive or the person to last look into our eyes while we took that last breath?

As you can tell I have no religan

Is this normal when you get older to be thinking of things like this?

I used to have a religan, I used to believe in god but there are just so many different things out there to think aboot.

I am 19 years of age and i have been thinking aboot this for aboot the past week now..

You can help me by telling me for one if I am normal hehe and also telling me your input on thisThank You

I heard of the idea of a spiritual advisor, like in Judaism or Christianity, and I was wondering if a former Christian could seek the counsel of a Jewish advisor?

Most white on black racism is done and over with. But now theres more and more (mostly) black on white racism. They hold a grudge, and i get called a white a*s, cracker, whitey etc... and am being frowned upon for being white, whites are always supposed to be racist. I was wacking down a street once and two black kids called me a "mother f****ng white a*s" now IMAGINE what would happen if i replied "shut up ni*ger".
Also a group of white kids in some highschool created a white only club, as there were clubs exclusive to all the other ethnicities in the same school, the white group ONLY was called racist and sued in court.
Why?
Just why?

Movies like Babe and Charlottes's Web seem to hint that maybe they're some of the smartest animals in the barn. I've heard that pigs can sense when they're about to be slaughtered.

How many of you have *never* been able to conceive of a God that was truly satisfactory in your own mind?

How many of you have *always* been able to conceive of a God that was truly satisfactory in your own mind?

So my understanding of the situation is that, it is the devil's job to try to get people to become unbelievers. My question is, does it bother the devil if people don't believe in him? I'm guessing it doesn't but I just wanted to ask.

I do not want answers from people telling me it doesn't matter because none of them exist. Frankly I'm agnostic and those answers don't help me in the least. I'm just asking this question because I'd like to know what believers think on this subject.
Thanks.

Okay, before any of you answer, cut the crap. I have had the pleasure of dating and being friends with many different races of people. I have talked to and studied social relations between the ifferent races. My many white boyfriends have admited to me and exposed to me the real feelings many whites have about blacks and it isn't pretty.

Constant comments come from whites I've known about how a 'black' person is attractive, but only when that black person is mixed in some way. Look at hollywood, I'd say that less than 20% of our beautiful 'black' female actresses are acutally all black.

Yes, many whites believe they are superior to blacks. And in many ways they are. That is just the way society is. We are all ethnocentric in many ways.

If blacks werent inferior in some way wouldn't they have more wealth, money, and education in a whole? Do they? No. Our American society views whites as more desirable because they have more of what is considered desirable.

The foolish and wicked practice of profane cursing and swearing is a vice so mean and low that every person of sense and character detests and despises it.

Why don't you welcome the opportunity to show the way to your God as your Bible has instructed you?

Im basing this question on BEING ALLOWED to hang a picture of Jesus or scripture in your classroom. Would you riot hypocritically if it were someone else's god/God being displayed?

I have had an obsession with religion for awhile, attempting to identify where I "belonged." But the more I thought about it, the more my beliefs faded....
Am I not supposed to question God?

I am a good man. I am Mormon. I am gay and happy. My fellow brothers and sisters do not accept me any more because I am honest. Joseph Smith was a liar.

Jesus was very unique I think. He was big on giving to the poor, and he was tough on the rich! Jesus actually said that:" it would be easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of heaven"! Jesus was also very forgiving! As far as political stance is concerned. If Jesus was a politician: He would have been an Independent. But some of his views are what alot of conservatives would call "liberal" but only if it where you and I. Sense its Jesus they try to cover up how compassionate of a man Jesus really was! Jesus commanded one man to give everything he had to the poor!!! And he was a rich man! Christ comdemns the rich many times in the new testament. He is not referring so much as to how much money they have. It has more to do with the state of their heart. In other words its okay to have money, but money is not to be the governing god of your life! Jesus would oppose Gay Marriage and Abortion. So; A moderate Democrat?
