Now i'm not talking about a known (recognized religon) version of these places, and no i'm not gonna get all cheesy and say this world is what you make it.
But really, from my casual perspectives, people "talk" about hell much more than heaven, off the top of my head i can think of many examples of hell and few of heaven.
One of the more interesting definitions of hell i remember is one where the punishment fits the crime (s) of a person's life.
So, every "sinner" gets their own personal hell, by this and applying simple ying and yang, don't you think people could get their own personal heaven?


(However would this be a negative re-enforcement strategy?)

It seems as if white europeans have a strange tendancy to exterminate anyone that is different to them. I have a list of atrocities that europeans have appeared to be behind.

The Spanish Conquest of South America - millions of natives wiped out.

The Spanish Inquisition - 300,000 non-xians exterminated.

Europeans colonise america - 50 million native americans wiped out. http://hnn.us/articles/7302.html

The Crusades - 200 years of warfare waged on middle east resulting in deaths of countless millions

Vietnam War - 2 - 4 million vietnamese killed.

Hiroshima - 250,000 japanese civilians wiped out by American forces.

Killing and suppression under the british empire of natives to India, Africa and so forth.

If you have follow my posts... what happened is that I have decided to confront my girlfriend that I have been having sex with her best friend. Her best friend is a very devout Chrsitian girl and we have lots in common. My girlfriend does not understand this concept and I have attempted to educate her on the meaning of being a good Christian.

My dilemma is that I really enjoy having sex with this girl. Should I make a clean break and leave my girlfriend and be with this girl. I believe I might have sinned but it is with a Christian girl not a non-believer, Christ will understand this concept.

.
I'm spiritual, non-denominational. I'm gifting myself with the adventure of attending an overnight New Years retreat in the Bay Area ~ ~ We will be gathering with others at a Zen retreat and sharing meditation through the evening, at mid-night and awakening early for early morning meditation. I do meditate, yet not, as yet, to the deeper level that they do as at this Zen meditation center. We're leaving to drive to the Bay Area this afternoon and looking forward to it.

My question is this . . . I attended a half day meditation there some weeks back and noticed that some, including women, had their hair shaved off.

Why do they do this.? I'm respecting of persons of all faiths and sometimes wonder why a person of a certain faith does something so, just wondering.

Do you know why persons in the Buddha faith shave the hair on their head off? Appreciate insight.

This is the definition of perfect, I suggest you read it before you give me a poor answer.

http://www.m-w.com/dictionary/perfect

If god was truly perfect, he would not have created anything...It makes no sense. He would have been 100% omnipotently, omnisciently complete. If he created something the only direction he could go would be to become imperfect.

Just two questions: Do you think the people in N.O. saw Katrina coming 3 weeks before she crashed the party? Do you think the people in Indonesia and Thailand even knew they would be met with such a fate hours before the tsunami came?

Certain Church leaders had created the Dark Ages
through extremes in religious thinking. Claiming any
rational, scientific thought was heretical.
The Illuminati challenged this narrow-mindedness. And
being "true" scientists. Objective, and learning through
experimentation and observation. Discovered the reality
of "spiritual" power.
Most Masons are "club members". Giving material power
to the group through financial and personal support. But
they know very little of the secrets of Masonry other than
a few secret hand shakes.
Masons were stoneworkers who knew the power in
shapes. Harmonizing and even enhancing the forces
of Creation, and our material world. They knew the power in symbols which is the Universal language.
Most organizations are created by people who want to better the World. They are mostly sincere. Nevertheless, power corrupts. And I have no doubt there are corrupt individuals in every one as well.

what if they are wrong? and you know they are wrong and they are using the bible as a way to minipulate you by saying that the bible says we are not supposed to date outside our race? also, shouldn't our parents also at least respect us? i was told that i HAVE to respect them, but that i am the child so they don't have to respect me. Is that true too?
