Both of my marriages were to Christian men, before I was introduced to Witchcraft...when I lived the Life of being a Christian, they thought of the Marriage License as "ownership" papers along with being abusive!!

Wiccan men are MORE loving towards women and MORE respectful...you DON'T see abusive relationships amongst Wiccans as you would in Christian relationships.

If Christians were not:

1. Constantly trying to deny peoples their basic rights and freedoms.

2. Promote their belief system over other systems.

3. Condemning and harassing those outside their faith.

4. Trying to undermine the education system by having their beliefs taught in place of actual science and history.

Would you be more willing to live and let live?

I know I would.

Another day, another Islamic terror plot, this time to blow-up JFK and surrounding communities. If there was one human on earth, that heard of the plot and didn't immediately think "muslims", I would be sbocked.

These Islamists were said to be "homegrown"...what does this mean? I think it means that they werw not an immediate part of Al Qaeda.

Makes you wonder whether its even useful to distinguish Al Qaeda Muslims from non Al Qaeda Muslims. The London and Spain attacks were massive and yet not tecnically Al Qaeda. Months of Islamic riots I'm France were not Al Qaeda.

New Islamic terror groups pop up every day, such as "the army of islam" which just captured a bunch of journalists. The only thing all these constant Islamic plots and attacks really share is Islam.

Also how our God looks at prayer warriors engaged by the brokers who make most prayers on consideration at the behest of Prayer brokers. Is our God beyond reach to His creations?

So I just went through the Taco Bell drive through, and the gal at the second window was a bit large, maybe 250lbs. When she turned to get my drink, I noticed that her pants were falling down a bit in the back, and the tight fitting shirt was riding up... which revealed several inches of what really looked like white cotton undies with Spongebob Squarepants all over them. Was I wrong to be a little put off by this?

i find that those who follow some type of nature based religions are far more understanding and open to different ideas and are less likely to judge others. they are also more helpful when people are trying to discover a religous path by not pushing their beliefs on them but guiding them to follow their hearts

After a discussion with two friends I have decided to compile a list of 10 things to do before my 18th birthday (5th April). I currently I have 9 things that I am happy with but cannot think of a final thing.
Any suggestions, within reason, will be appreciated!

THINGS TO DO BEFORE I AM 18

1. Beat someone at tennis
2. Milk a cow
3. Go up the Spinnaker Tower with my girlfriend
4. Be on top of a human pyramid
5. Convert somebody to Christianity
6. Go one day at home without using the laptop
7. Kiss in a theme park and on a theme park ride
8. Watch High School Musical
9. Swim in the sea on Valentine's Day 2008
10.?

For the record, 18 is not significant, it is just a date that seems easy to do these things by!

...love to bring up the name of Madelyn Murray O'Hair, as a representative of Atheists??

This woman was MURDERED over a decade ago (nearly 12 years to be exact). She was the most hated woman in America - and was hated by most Atheists, who thought that she did not represent them... If anything, she was the biggest problem facing atheists in this country in the 1970's and 80s!

Yet, when a Christian brings up an Atheist, its either this tramp or Hitler (who, for the record, was a Christian who was heavily involved in the occult, attempting to search for the Spear of Destiny - the spear that pierced the side of Christ....why would an atheist be interested in that?)

WHY?? Cant let sleeping dead dogs alone? Or, is this the only mean, ugly, hateful person that you can find to represent atheism, regardless of the fact she is long dead?

If God is ALL-LOVING,
all-knowing,
all-merciful,
perfect,
then why would God be so imperfect and humanized as to say in the Bible such jealous things like
Exodus 20:3
"You shall have no other gods before me.",
and Exodus 20:5
"You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me..."

Or such UNloving and violent things like
Exodus 22:18
"Do not allow a sorceress to live.",
and unloving and violent things like
Judges 9:56-57 "Thus God returned the evil of Abimelech, which he committed against his father in killing his seventy brothers. And God also made all the evil of the men of Shechem return on their heads, and upon them came the curse of Jotham the son of Jerubbaal."

How can our loving God be so humanized to be jealous and vengeful? How can God be all-loving and do harm? Or, "return evil" when God is not evil?

Is there any church or belief system that will not insult me by calling Paul's personal letters the "word of God"?

I don't think it would be a good idea since it is dealing with food and customers. Also isn't there a thing called a health code they have to follow. I just wanted a second opinion. They wanted to write me up, which means they could fire me with another write. Since I told them that I wasn't going to come in since I had pink eye. Well I went to the doctor today to get a note, but the manager still was saying I could work. I look like a monster or something, and if I was greeted by me I would probably leave and I couldn't do that to people that is just wrong.

I was sitting outside when a Raven flew overhead. I felt some thing hit my head (at first I thought the thign pooped on me). When I reached up to feel what hit me, a feather fell on my lap.

I was curious to know if this has some meaning.
