hell. Then they tell you that when Jesus makes his second coming he will judge the living and the DEAD. Does this mean that those who have already been judged at death and comitted to hell will get a second chance?

why are peole so quick to give up on God. I really cant belive what I am reading on the computer. It seems like to me that it is easier to say there is'nt a God and accept societies rules, then it is to say there actually is a supreme being, "GOD", and to give GOD a chance and see what he can do for us. I mean even for a non-believer, just give GOD a chance. Sorry for the complaint, I just cant believe what I am reading.

I'm not sure where Dent is but I think it is further north and in the countryside. I am going to a folk festival there and need to get to Mass.

Fathers Day is this Sunday, have you done anything for your father or are you intending to do anything for him to show him how much you love him?
What is it that you are doing?

Fish would be an obvious one, as that is the old christian symbol, when they were being persecuted by the italians. A popular cry at the time 'christians by jove, lets chafe them.'

My husband was baptised c of e along with all his family, i haven't been baptised but my parents were mormons. I am not a member of any religion but im not atheist, i believe theres a god but i don't believe in the bible, i think as long as your a good person and use your common sense you'll be ok at the end,i don't like to complicate things.
My hubby and family want lil one baptised, its all booked up but the vicar said in years to come the church won't exist so maybe we should come to church to ensure its survival through our child.I have nothing against the church but i don't have a calling to go neither does my hubby and family. So im not as into her being baptised, i'll instill my values into her to be a good person and when she's older if she wants to join a church then thats her perogative.Everyones excited about the after party, i just feel a few doubts, its like were lying by going ahead with it. I told hubby but he feels like we have every right to get her baptised,opinions?

I am taking a sociology class this summer and it was mentioned in discussion the various versions of heaven throughout the different theologies.
I was wondering if anyone knows what the differences are between Christians, Hindus, Muslims, Jews, Pagans, Wiccans, and any faith I have left out in their expectation of the afterlife.?
Also, what are the differences between what men expect versus what women expect.?
Consider this a social question rather than simply what you believe as I am hoping to gain insight into various religions if you will.

Didn't it go something like:

Attention:
Present arms:
Draw swords:

And then the moderator would give a scripture...the first to find the scripture would win...


-Am I forgetting anything in this drill?
-What do you think of the correlation to weapons?
-Remembering this, kinda creeps me out...how about you?
-This seems a little like the KKK/brainwashing thing preparing kids for battle of some "foe".

Your thoughts?

Would it be better to not baptize babies? Just let them grow up, and then see what religious calling they have? And then if they want to get baptized let them?

You, religious people, always judge others. But does the Bible really allow that?

I just read an interesting statment form an atheiest. I pray for him, but I also wonder this? If you were living in a city and you had a son. Then one day, the city you are living in is struck with some kind of major catastrophy, like what happened in Luoisiana, or like in the Movie, "War of the Worlds", (not sayign I believe in aliens), would you have the courage to give up the life of your son or daughter, just so someone elses kid could live. I mean think about it before anyone wants to get key happy, It is your only child and if your child goes, then your bloodline stops and your heart will be in so much pain, your creation that you were graced with is gone, for a stranger? I have a 2 year old son that I love to the depths of my heart and soul, and I am also a firm and religious believer in GOD, but I honestly dont know if I could answer this question myself, and God please forgive for saying that. I think it is what makes believers believers. Jesus died for me, can my son?

I see Fireball226 has set herself up as the resident expert on this by telling us all what is and is not religion and spirituality here, so I thought I'd get other people's opinions as well.

I've noticed a growing trend in movies and television. Where it's suddenly become okay for black people to be racist against white people. For example I was watching a movie the other day and the main characters kept calling one girl "white girl" as a put down. It made me very angry. Just wanted to hear some opinions.

I respect myself because;
* i dont give into peer pressure.
*i try not to judge people.
*i'm not easy.
*I think before i act.
*I respect my body.
*I dont do anything bad, to the point where i have regrets.
