It would seem that religion is based on faith. Faith is believing in something you can't see, but you have faith it's there...aka god. But where is the logic in beliveing in something you can't see. You will of course be disappointed when the truth is revealed because the universe is always different than what we want it to be.

Having faith in something that IS proven, like gravity. Gravity is one law of nature in this universe. Even god would have to obey the law of gravity in the cosmos. Same goes with science, which uncovers so many more truths about the universe. Not based on faith but logic and reason. It seems to make more logic to believe in something that is REAL than something that you WANT to be real.

if he was God why did he become God's son? i mean you can't make God into a son just because he decided to travel to the earth, you are still God right?

he spoke Aramaic and that's my evidence.

http://scriptures.lds.org/bd/a/109

The official language of the Persian Empire, spoken widely throughout the Near East. Certain portions of the Old Testament are written in Aramaic (Gen. 31: 46; Ezra 4: 8 - 6: 18; Ezra 7: 12-26; Jer. 10: 11; Dan. 2: 4 - 7: 28). Aramaic words are also found in Job, Song of Solomon, Jonah, Esther, the Hebrew parts of Daniel, and some of the Psalms. The common language of the Jews after the return from Babylon was Aramaic, and it is most probable that Jesus and the Twelve spoke Galilean Aramaic, rather than the Hebrew of earlier times.

now what is your evidence?

If you think you're "God" is the correct one.... what do you think of all the other "Gods"

Do you think they were just made up ones?? So what makes yours right, if the "proof" others have is exactly what you have... in a holy book? !

It's over, life is over... What was it all for? To work an 8 to 5 job? To pay for a house or a car? I don't think so. Jesus is the only reason we are alive. God gave his Son to die for us, for you, for me, so that we wouldn't perish. That if we just believed in Him we would have EVERLASTING life. I don't know about you but I thank God for His grace and mercies, and that He loved us enough to save us from hell. John 3:16

For the past month or so, I've been involved in a very intimate relationship with my best friend. When we're alone, we have the most incredible relationship and I love the time I spend with her. But, when we're in public it's a completely different story. I've come to accept the fact that I've fallen in love with another woman, but I think my girlfriend is really struggling with it. A few times we've been out somewhere, I forget were out in public, and I make a mistake and call her "baby" or some other pet-name, and suddenly she'll shrug me off and ignore me. She's accused me of doing it on purpose, she's cussed me out in public and humiliated me. She's accused me of doing it on purpose, I mean I have gone through hell with this stuff. It's to the point where I feel like I'm dating two different people, and I feel like she's emotionally abusive. I want to hold her hand, and I want to kiss her and things like that, but she's so afraid to and now I'm even scared to do any of that, I feel

WAS RUINED BY THE KKK AND NEO-NAZIS! if they hadn't of smeared racism and superiority IN THEIR VERSION OF WHITE PRIDE, some whites could celebrate their white pride without guilt! Why DO SOME WHITES BLAME THE I CAN'T CELEBRATE WHITE PRIDE ON MINORITIES? it's the KKK's fault. They are the FANATICS who make white pride look bad blame it on them , not minorities.

The questions are why do some people blame minorities for not celebrating white pride? Why don't some whites realize that the KKK ruined white pride for them?

and allow me to start handing out beer to the less fortunate ones who showed up at my party without booze of their own. Better Yet, If I handed him an almost empty bottle of Petron, would he motion his hands and cause this bottle to multiply itself 10 fold>? I read the story of the Mount of Olives and felt his messages could also be shown to those modern day partakers of the spirts.

I am in school to be a teacher while I am a student teacher at the same time. 2 mos ago, it was promised to me that I could work with a certain class (1st grade) for the last quarter of school (when I f/t student teach) if I worked w/ 8th graders now. I hate 8th grade but I will do it if it means I get my 1st graders back later. There is another student teacher w/ the 1st graders now who decided she will not give them up. I love these 1st graders. I have gotten to know them really well, and I was promised my final quarter with them.This other lady is freaking out and tomorrow we have a meeting to "discuss."If u ask me, there is nothing to discuss b/c I was made a promise and I'm sorry that this other lady was shafted. Sometimes I am not taken seriously b/c I am younger and pretty. I am also Latina and can get a temper.
What tips can u give me to stay calm but still not back down and "win" what was promised to me from the getgo?
Anything u know, like a power color to wear, anything

I own 6 contiguous funeral plots in a VERY exclusive cemetery in San Francisco. I was recently talking with some friends who are politically connected, and they told me that if I need to create a funeral monument that is outside of the standard specifications that they would help. I am considering having a large pyramid built in memory of me. It will be the largest private mausoleum in SF, but I am assured that if I grease enough palms it can be done. Some friends are criticizing me for this becuse it will likely cost somewhere around $750,000. I can't imagine having a hole in the ground and having absolutely no control over who is next to me. What if they are siciilians and the family comes and picnics on the mounds on the weekend? I shudder in horror. I want an impressive monument to ME, with no opportunity for interlopers nearby. Should I do this, or buy another house and get cremated? I already have two houses. I would really like a pyramid for my afterlife. What would YOU do?
