Society & Culture - 1 July 2007

So many people have been brutally murdered in the name of "God", that it is hard to believe that any religion is right. I must have attended about seven different churches and always wanted to stand up and argue with the guy in the pulpit. Everyone thinks that their own religion is the "Right One" and argue, fight, insult, or even kill to try to get their point across, their point being their own reality. Reality is subject to perception, and every person perceives it differently, so reality is different from person to person. I know, very repetitive. I guess my question is, what makes anyone think that they know everything and are completely right in their own beliefs, and what makes them think others should die if they do not agree with them. (By the way, I was just joking about the adult baptisms being held under water until they stop kicking in my previous question. (Darkly funny image, though.)

Are we as Mormons considered Christians?

We don't believe that Jesus is the only son of God and the physical presence in the Trinity. We don't believe that God the Father is the mind and watchful eye and the Holy Spirit is the Spirit of God. This was taught by St. Patrick. We as Mormons don't acknowledge Christian doctrine as taught by St. Patrick.

Am I wrong or is that what makes us Mormony?

YES! American has! The bible says do not judge...it does not say that we should never shine the light of truth on the EVIL ways of others! WHOMEVER desires to CORRUPT the VIRTUES of TRUTH, & morality in Goverment, Schools, Churches, or any work place, should indeed be REPROVED, Corrected, & punished.Christians DO NOT PREACH HATE, NOR CONDEMNATION against Gays, BUT WE WILL ALWAYS stand up against their lies, and vile, self destrcutive actions, as long as they see fit to indoctrinate the mass population. Want to be gay??? Do it in the privacy of your own home and NOT on AMERICAS Television, Movies, Magazines, Churches, and Goverment!!!!! :) Remember GOD desire that EVERYONE comes to REPENTENCE, and forsake their SINS, no matter what they might be.Because NO adulterer, NO idolitor,NO lier,NO murderer,NO evil person will ever enter HEAVEN.

w w w DOT afa DOT N E T is a good website to VOTE against the homosexual agenda! :)
and u dont have to be a christian to do that! God bless!

Forget science etc for the moment.

Im not asking if you believe in God, but whether you would like there to be a God.

Somewhere for you and your family/loved ones/friends to go and stay together after death.

Or would you prefer not to exsist?

Why do we fight against each other in the name of religion?

Being spiritual & being religious are very different. Religion is a tool meant to divide.

I've wanted to get a tattoo for a really long time now and since I'm about to go off to college I figured it was the perfect time. I've been a dancer my whole life so I want to get "Dance Like No One Is Watching" in Latin on my stomach. I was wondering if anyone knew a translation for that in Latin. Maybe German too because I'm german. Thanks!

I need a picture of how far they sat from the stage, not just a picture of them sitting at the cocert.

It can be an overview of the stadium with a circle circling where they sat.

Thanks!~

If possible where can I watch the FULL concert. I only saw a summary of it on NBC.

Tonight I received a phone call from my daughter-in-law... my 2 1/2 yr old grand-daughter had a 4 hr long nosebleed and they went to the hospital. Doctors took x-rays after many tests and exams and found that my grand-daughter has a rather large hole in her heart....and needs heart surgery!

Daughter-in-law says they are having a specialist come in to look at her later this week.

This dear grand-daughters' mom and dad have been keeping God at arms length...and need a MIRACLE for their daughter AND for their whole family.

Thankyou all! your sister in christ, ForeverSet

Dear friends, I strongly believe in God without a shadow of doubt. I believe in the living God with all my heart. I believe that god created the Heaven and the Earth and I believe without an iota of doubt that Jesus is coming again with all of his Holy Angels to take me and all believers with him back to heaven to a special place that he has prepared for his people. I believe that God is Creator. I believe that God is all powerful. I believe that God Created the Universe, and that he is sovereign. I believe that God is all knowing, and that he is present everywhere. I believe that he is my Savior from sin unto salvation. I believe that God, Justifies, and Sanctifies the sinner. I believe in God! Absolutely, Positively, and Intelligently.

I have open my heart and received Christ as my Personal Savior. He is Lord! Revelation 3:20.

A certain person asked me to help her with three supernatural events... Now it took me almost three weeks of research, To come up with something that could really help her deal with those supernatural events..... So last night she wrote me a piece of e-mail saying that what I told her was very correct.. But several of her friends had a incident that I won't go into right now........ But she was very, very angry at me for not making her listen to me when I gave her some very excellent advice... And she said that she preformed what I told her to do and it really worked out well for her.. But if I made her listen to me she would have been able to save her friends from a very painful trip to the hospital... Now my question to all of you out there in answer land... How could I make her listen to me. she asked for advice and I gave her some, but how is my fault that I did not make her listen .. And what should I do when she ask me to assist her again.......................................

tried some Ezekial 4:9 brand cereal?

http://www.foodforlife.com/assets/images/Cereal%20Group%20Product%20Page.jpg

Those hearty, healthy flakes are just what the good Lord ordered.
Yes, whether your on a pilgramage to the Holy Land or out bowling with your Christian Youth Group, a heaping handful of Ezekial 4:9 cereal is just what you need to replenish your energy and your faith.
A warm setting sun, whispy clouds in the sky and Sprouted Whole Grain Bread are just what you need to get your brain revitalized to memorize Bible verses.
Whether it's Original, Cinnamon Rasin, Almond, or Golden Flax, you'll Thank God that you had such breakfast options.
Still hungry for more of the faith? Why not try the blessed Whole Grain Pasta or Taco Shells?
There's so many options out there in God's green world, why not chow down the way he'd want you to?
You'll be glad you did.

Atheists and self proclaimed people of reason ask questions they don't want an answer to because their mind is already made up. Why?

Same goes for Christians and Muslims. They ask questions with no intention of listening to an answer contrary to their beliefs. Questions about faith, life, the Purpose. Why?

Are we trying to convert hard headed people with our rhetoric?

I have no preconceived notions on this. I'd like to know why? Although I do have an idea why Christians and Muslims do it.
