Where did it come from?
Have you researched other religions so you know you have the right one for you?
Do you think your religion is the only true one? If so Why do you think that?
Have you ever had 'the dark night of the soul' and completely questioned everything you ever believed in or got told about religion
Which Religion do you subscribe to?
Tell me everything

Love and Light

What if God was one of us? Just a stranger on the bus trying to find his way home.

Did you know that God is watching us from a distance?

Is it just me or is R & S unusually WEIRD today? I have been noticing for the past few days that there have been some slight changes but it is almost like being in a twisted episode of the Twilight Zone. Of course this is my first summer here so that may be it, Time to cruise over to Sociology or hair & beauty for a while

I think that people have to read more about ISLAM and know why they're existed and how they were created and by whom? it's ALLAH (god), time is going on, so we have to know the truth before we dy, then a muslim who prayed for god and did all the duties will win the heaven, and any other to the hell. It's unbeleivable to show what's the great islam in many words? I beg you to read more before you face the truth in the hell. it's easy, just read. if you find that ISLAM is true and I'm sure you will, you can become muslim very easily.else, you're free and it's very important to know that islam doesn't obligate people to become muslims. GOOD LUCK

For example, this country originally had the foundation on God. Now, people try to take out "God" wherever they see it, whether it's on a coin or it's in a court.

1. God LOVES you and offers a wonderful PLAN for your life.

"God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life" John 3:16.

Why is it that people are not experiencing the abundant life?

2. Man is SINFUL and SEPARATED from God. Therefore, he cannot know and experience God's love and plan for his life.

Man Is Sinful
"All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" Romans 3:23.

3. Jesus Christ is God's ONLY provision for man's sin. Through Him you can know and experience God's love and plan for your life.

"God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us" Romans 5:8.

4. We must individually RECEIVE Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord; then we can know and experience God's love and plan for our lives.

"As many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name" John 1:12

Why do you all not do your homework before electing a label?

...The indictment and prosecution of Greek philosophers is a circumstance which is familiar to us all. Several philosophers, one after another, were indicted by the Athenian Government, on the common charge of introducing strange divinities. Anaxagoras, Socrates, and Aristotle received similiar indictments for a similiar offence. The most famous of these was against Socrates which reads as follows. " Socrates commits a crime by not believing in the gods of the city, and by introducing other new divinities. He also commits a crime by corrupting the youth." THEN, Socrates is declared by Meletus to be an atheist and to corrupt the religion of the young. Taken from "Stolen Legacy pg 29" and Socrates's Defense. The overall meaning being whoever does not believe as we do are Atheists. Also, the Greeks functioned on more levels that you all do, for A = 1 and Theist = God, therefore An Atheist is a monotheist!

I've noticed a number of claims of things that are in the bible that ARE NOT. Usually these claims are being made by Christians....

What is the reason for this?

Have they not read the bible (...then where do they get their claims?)
Do they think non-Christians haven't read the bible (...then why do they tell us to?)
Is there another secret Bible only Christians have with things like the definition of marriage being ONE man and ONE woman (unlike the characters in the Bible) or life begining at conception not at the first breath, or other biblical claims that aren't biblical?

Why are they allowed to cherry pick to support their political agendae?

And I'm not even talking about things that require a high degree of Biblical literacy, like knowing sin from the cleanliness code or understanding guestright.

I'm a Brazilian guy I've learned English the British way. I speak Britishly though with a somewhat heavy foreign accent.

Would it be best if I tried to pronounce my R's?

Is it bad if I use the broad A in words like "path" "aunt" "half" "chance" etc?

Any other British pronunciation traits that Americans would find annoying?

thnx lots.

Did anyone see the loch ness monster on the news last night? it is around the world. Some guy caught it on tape. What do you think? I think that there is something. It might not be a monster, but it can be a giant fish. Just like the giant squid, there might be more out there you think?

Had this debate in my Ethics class at school, kind of wondering what others think about this thought.

There is a question over abortion being murder. Murder would have to imply that the fetus is alive/human. I wondered when is a human alive. I know that you are legally dead when you cease to have brain function so are you legally alive when you begin to have brain function? And if you are legally alive at the beginning of your brian function then would an abortion be considered murder after this time period?

I am leaving open the idea off an abortion at anytime if a women is raped, incest, or the life of the mother is at great risk.

Please no bible scriptures I know what the bible says about life and I also know that at different times god has killed babies or ordered them to be killed so no religious scriptures just curious about people's real feelings on the aforementioned idea in hopes of seeing our way through to a compromise on the issue.
Thank You all for helping.

I'm new here, only two or three weeks here, and it honestly disturbs me that I've fallen into a habit which doesn't mirror my personality, my sense of the world, my view of who and what I am in life. It ends here, it ends now. I may not agree with you or your religious views...I am a nonbeliever...but I intend to address you with respect and common good manners. I am, after all, very probably a good deal older than most of you, and, too, I've been fortunate in my long life...and my good fortune continues. Please forgive this give-time grandfather's snide remarks. If you knew me, you would know that I am altogether sincere on this.
