Would you tell them they wear a tin foil hat? Would you call them crazy, liars, etc?

Are we all more intrested with pushing out agendas: Islam Christianity, Atheism and other. Then we are at directly answering some questions?

For a example im asking about Movies about atheism and im getting quotes from the bible. (I know she means well.) Then other people are giving me book's(not movies) I already read.

To be fair im guilty of this also!!!!!!! Do you admit it?

since im more familiar with christianity i guess ill jus say christian teachings/beliefs.

isnt the be christian or burn idea more like a threat? i mean i know christians believe god gave people free will thus we can choose to believe in "god" or not. but isnt that really a sugar coated threat?? since the religion is pretty much saying you can either choose "life"[jesus] or death[no jesus]. no matter what i choose im screwed. if i choose jesus im not living by my own free will...since i just dont believe its real....but if i dont force jesus in my head i BURN.

isnt that the same thing as lets say.....you got involved with a mob and you made a deal with a mob and the deal is if you agree with this deal theyll give you protection, money, etc etc. but if you dont join thats fine too since its you choice...BUT....few years later the gangs going to GET YOU and KILL YOU.

Dim Ashes of the Flame

What time is spent pondering here
How death can be so very near
When life is almost unclear

What essence of my soul I must have lost
Now that I seem frozen covered in frost
May I stop dying now and go on
Out into a world of dust

So I shale let go
Of these dim ashes of the flame
That used to make my body glow
With that thing that belonged in my soul

That now my heart shale weep
And my body reap
Of the last bit of life I keep

What life I have spent on you
You the ones I love so dearly too
And now why must I choose
To leave life so far behind

I need a miracle that’s what I’ve said
A miracle so I don’t cast out to the dead
Give me the miracle I need
And you may not see me bleed

Bleed of sorrow for the morrow
Bleed from deep within this life I’ve borrowed
Bleed so far into the burrow
That this so called life has sewn

May I be lost to the world
To the pain and the sorrow
But not to those for whom I hold this love

I want to be a part of life
Weaved through time

Someone you truly care about hurts you and lies to you so you retaliate in a manner which causes them more trouble and pain then they caused you, karma wise, how do you atone for that? And how do you get that person to forgive you?

I was thinking of purchasing a farm. With the intention of using it as a school holiday program for pagan kids and anyone who wants to come. Teaching them respect for animals, the earth, each other no matter the religion, and with the hopes to help wayward kids. Perhaps organising visits to nursing homes to chat with the lonely.

Do you think this is a good idea?

This is what Im on earth to do. I also think pagans need to come out of the broom closet and start doing some good things so that people recognise we aren't about bad things.

As christians may believe that God created everything and the universal, but I wonder what/who has created God? And did whatever created God also created something else or another God?

Insects with four feet?
"Yet these may ye eat of every flying creeping thing that goeth upon all four, which have legs above their feet, to leap withal upon the earth; Even these of them ye may eat; the locust after his kind, and the bald locust after his kind, and the beetle after his kind, and the grasshopper after his kind. But all other flying creeping things, which have four feet, shall be an abomination unto you."
Leviticus 11:21-23
Just for the record, insects have six feet and arachnids have eight. You'd think the ancient Israelites might have picked up on this little detail, what with eating locusts and beetles and all.


Bats identified as "birds"?
"And these are they which ye shall have in abomination among the fowls; they shall not be eaten, they are an abomination: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray, and the vulture, and the kite after his kind; Every raven after his kind; and the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after his kind, and the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl, and the swan, and the pelican, and the gier eagle, and the stork, the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and the bat."
Leviticus 11:13-19
An almost identical passage occurs in Deuteronomy 14:11-18. The bat is of course a flying mammal, not a bird.

Rabbits claimed to chew their cud?

"And the hare, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you."
Leviticus 11:6
To chew the cud means to eat grasses, swallow, then regurgitate later for further chewing. Rabbits simply do not do this. However, rabbits do eat their own poo, in order to absorb certain nutrients that passed through unabsorbed the first time. This is similar to human urine drinking.

how Christians believe? If you don't believe that way then fine but why spend SO MUCH of your time and anger lashing out at them? Just believe what you do and hope you are right in the end !

Christain don't follow everything the bible says (mosty the OT) and i wanted to know how do they know what to believe?

If you just go based on what your praster or panters or who ever say, how do you know they 'er not wrong?
And
If you can believe them so easily then why can't you believe scientist that have evidents and facts?

I heard "Halo, Hello" from Jesus and wind chimes outside just now-very beautiful, God bless you and have a nice weekend.

Isaiah 52:13-53:12 "He will be exalted. He will first be marred more than any man, and lay down his life to make atonement for our sins. He was bruised for our iniquites, and with his stripes we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray and the Lord hath made to light on Him the iniquity of us all."

You dont have to hear heavenly singing-to know Jesus loves you or to be born again (John 3 repent and be born again. Messiah Jesus says)

have you let the Messiah Jesus into your heart-Revelation 1:1 spoken from heaven 3:19&20 "I love you, and knock on your heart door to come in and be your friend, and help you if you repent, asking me to forgive your sins, and help you." sup means very close friendship eat together enjoy life

well have you prayed and asked Jesus in your heart? If so have you ever heard heavenly singing? even in church once boringIs2me

I heard a story that supposedly occured back in the days when people were regularly beheaded as punishment for a certain crime. Once this guy was going to be beheaded... his friend was struck with a unusual idea... he knew his friend would be beheaded no matter what... and there was nothing he could do..... so he asked his friend to be do an experiment as his las feat he would do in his life... The experiment consisted that after he was beheaded... he was to bliink if he was still alive.... (if he still had conciousness of the brain) Well it turned out that after he was beheaded he blinked incredibly for about 10 seconds before the blinking stopped... kinda interesting huh? anyone else heard this story??????? My sister's teacher related that story to her class... and my sis told it to me... supposedly its true.... and I think its feasble.... not like we could prove it this days though :) so if you could give me the names or sources for this story I would really appreciate it

Marek Halter, the author of the Canaan Trilogy makes that claim during the Q&A section of his book "Sarah". He says that fact came from the Bible. However, I've never come across that in my reading. I use a NKJV and NIV Bible. Is it something that I overlooked or is it in another version of the Bible?

When they are all criminals like those crazy people in prisons... I understand the whole Johnny Depp thing... sort of. I am from Brasil and the Amazon is so big, it has pirates who raid boats sometimes. When I left Brasil, I heard from home about people getting robbed. It doesn't make sence to me... I know I'm stupid but I am a curious soul.

I have heard that if you don't give the undertaker shoes and socks, that you will be buried barefoot. I was wondering if anyone would want to spend eternity with nothing on their feet?

Please read completely before answering.

I know this is young. But I am only looking for a 1 day a week, or so service available for my son. Reason being:
1) To break some selfish and unappreciative attitudes that have been growing in him.
2) To aid in his homeschooling requirements of good citizenship.
3) To compliment his "active" learning style. He learns best when physically moving around. (one of the reasons I'm going to homeschool him, sitting for long hours is countereffective for him).

Examples of organizations that would allow a very young person to offer time would be helpful. He is already in scouts, but they focus more on group activities than volunteering.
