Whether that spirituality is Christian or Wiccan or just an inner sense of peace, do you feel like the US has lost touch with spirituality as a whole? We seem so superficial compared to eastern cultures (to me). Even our major spiritual belief system has become commercialized (e.g. mega churches). Have we lost touch with real spirituality? What is the remedy? What will be the next spiritual path the country takes as a whole?

How many Christians actually bealive that statement is in the Holy Bible? Am I wrong? I could be wrong I don't think I am infallible. But having read the entire bible at least three times both the NIV and the KJV it seems strange that I would miss it. Could someone please give me the Chapter and Verse?

In Rome a few years ago, I bought a souvenir T-shirt with a cartoon Roman solider on it with the title "Er Mejo". I'm guessing that the phrase is Italian or Latin, but I cannot find the meaning.

Someone just knocked on my back door (which I don't like) and I didn't answer it. My blinds are sorta up so they probably saw me but I didn't answer it. Every time I used to answer the door (no matter what neighborhood) it was always some shady magazine salesperson or some other freak. One time I answered my door in an apartment (on the third floor) and this chick said her bf wasn't home downstairs and she wanted to use my phone and bathroom!!! What is wrong with people! Anyhoo... now I don't answer ever! Is that really rude of me? I'm a young woman alone in a crappy area... I don't trust anyone.

Even if everything in the bible were true (and I don't believe that it is), don't you realize that the actual words were spoken years before they were written which in itself subjects them to change, and were also spoken in a different language based on a different culture? Many christians that I have met speak as though the words of the bible are exactly what Jesus said. That is just not true. How many christians actually realize this?

Geology shows that fossils are of different ages.
Paleontology shows a fossil sequence, the list of species represented changes through time.
Taxonomy shows biological relationships among species.
Evolution is the explanation that threads it all together.
Creationism is the practice of squeeezing one's eyes shut and wailing "does not!.

Does this sound familiar..?

I just went to lunch. It was one of those order and the counter and go sit down places. When I walked in, I chose a table, put my book and keys on it and walked up to the counter to order. When I turned around, two guys had say down at my table, pushing my stuff aside. As I walked over, one said to the other, "these aren't your keys, are they" and I say "No, they are not" and I grabbed my stuff and walked away.

Are people really that clueless?

Hello, I believe I remember that Jesus said something about, as a man thinks, so is he? Did he say this or something similar to, we are what we think?

In Matthew 12:43-45, Jesus says:

"When an evil spirit comes out of a man, it goes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says 'I will return to the house I left.' When it arrives, it finds the house unoccupied, swept clean and put in order. Then it goes and takes with it seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and live there. And the final condition of that man is worse than the first."

Does this mean that the evil spirit eventually goes back into the same man that it was expelled from, and is joined there by seven additional evil spirits (who are even more wicked)? Is this why the condition of the man ends up even worse than before?

Thank you

The proper place for the study of religious beliefs is in a church or temple, at home, or in a course on comparative religions, but not in a biology class.
There is no place in our world for an ideology that seeks to close minds, force obedience, and return the world to a paradise that never was. Students should learn that the universe can be confronted and understood, that ideas and authority should be questioned, that an open mind is a good thing.
Education does not exist to confirm people's superstitions, and children do not learn to think when they are fed only dogma.

Watcha think..?

Is it okay to call yourself a Christian if you only believe parts of the Bible and not the whole thing? I wonder what people think If the Christian Faith's foundation includes the Bible, are you still considered a Christian if you do not believe it?

They're like gays. They talk about marriage but the fact is there can be no marriage for homos. It is an abomination to the LORD. Isn't asking a question that doesn't even mention the LORD an abomination by that same theory too? This IS religion.
