I’ve decided to start a new religion. Following on with the tried and tested method of borrowing from other older, more established faiths, I’m stealing the Ten Commandments. Problem is, while 5 through to 10 are okay, numbers 1 to 4 are a bit iffy. Any suggestions for 4 new ones.
"The Six Commandments" just doesn't have the right ring to it!

Why do some people think that these are the work of satan?

They are purly a way of finding out your possible future events, opening your eyes to things that are going on in your life right now and sometimes giving you an answer to something your unable to find out for yourself.
I do readings for anyone and everyone that are interested and they are free. I believe my readings have helped others see the bigger picture in situations they have been in and helped to guide them on the right path.
My readings have never caused anyone any pain. I just read what the cards tell me.
I can not tell their future like when they are going to die etc etc.
Tarot is just a guidance for your life.

If all this can be done without causing pain and suffering why do people still say its the work of the satan?

Specifically regarding mutilation without their concent.

Here I am actually talking about circumcision, and more definately regarding the disgusting habit of some muslims who administer it to girls.

I believe people who believe that this ritual is godly or required for whatever reason should be treated like a any other child abuser.

What do you think.

And no there is no difference, its child abuse full stop.

Why not let them make their own choice when they are 16, and an adult.

Jesus' disciples would know and obey the truth. John 8:31,32, "If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed. And ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free." Jesus' disciples would continue in his word, that is, daily study the Bible. They would receive a knowledge of his truth that would so enthrall them that they would forsake all that they have (Luke 14:33) in materialism and goods to be his disciples. In Mark 8:35 Jesus said, "For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it." This means consecrating our all to the Lord and using it in his service as he directs. Further stringent conditions of discipleship are found in Luke 14:26: unless a man "hate" (love less) his father, mother, wife, children, brethren, even his own life, "he cannot be my disciple." Again in Luke 9:23: "If any will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me."

Jesus' terms of discipleship for being a Christian, indeed, are demanding. Is it any wonder he predicted that only a "little flock" would qualify? Oh yes, many would call themselves Christians as Jesus predicted in Matthew 7:22,23:

My daughter and I have been going to a Church of God service every now and then. My husband doesn't like it because he says it's a sin and we must only attend a Catholic church. Is he correct?

I just want opinions on this. Why would God put the apple in the garden in the first place. It's like me knowing that my friend is going to kill someone but giving him the gun anyway and saying "I think I should still give him a choice" and not trying to stop him at all.

Don't you think it's unfair that God punishes everyone for something he put in the garden?

Also did Adam and Eve have belly buttons?

My little brother is really interested in using one, but I've only heard some of the bad stories. And of course, you never know if someone was playing around or if it's real or not. But I'd still rather not open up a can of worms that neither of us are ready for, so I'd like to know some precautions and what are some of the potential repercussions? Thanks all for your time.

The vast majority of people in North America identify themselves as Christians. Do you? Perhaps you are not sure. Perhaps you are very sure and wonder about others who do. For example, even the majority of criminals in the U.S. prison system identify themselves as "Christians."

Just how far back in time can "Christians" be identified? The name "Christian" was coined in the First Century A.D.-about five years after Pentecost. "And the disciples were called Christians first at Antioch." In the "church at Antioch" these Christians were also called "disciples." Acts 11:26; 13:1, "Church" means "called out ones" while "disciple" means "learner or pupil" and/or "adherent and follower of a teacher." Therefore, "Christians" are defined as ones "called out" from the world to be followers and pupils of Jesus Christ.

The Apostle John calls the Man of Sin the “Antichrist” for good reason. The name Man of Sin implies an entity that would be against or opposing the righteous ways of Christ. But the Greek prefix anti signifies “instead of” or “in place of.”[6] Anti is used 20 times in the New Testament as a complete word and never does it have the meaning of “against.” Nineteen times it is translated “for” as in Romans 12:17, “Recompense no man evil for evil.”[7] We should not return or replace evil with evil. Thus “Antichrist” replaces the position of Christ. Since Antichrist is also called the Man of Sin, obviously the operating principles of this system would be also against the principles of Christ.

Summary of the Apostles’ Clues:

The Man of Sin was at work in Paul’s day, but was not a literal man for then he would be almost 2,000 years old.
The Man of Sin is a counterfeit body of Christ, that is, a system of lawlessness intent on setting up a pseudo Kingdom of God contrary to God’s arrange

"If there is a sin against life, it consists perhaps not so much in despairing of life, as in hoping for another life, and in eluding the implacable grandeur of this life."
