Can you believe we have people who actually say it was fake. Go to youtube and look at the videos if you don't believe me about 9/11. It makes no sense. Billions of people around the world and in America saw it. The plans flew into the buildings. However there are some who say it was bombs.

Some even believe it was planned by our own government. Why would they do that? I mean get real. Some say that everything was an act. If so, where are the towers then? They just evaporated into thin air. Why would our government want to do something like this. I just don't see that. If so, why are they rebuilding the towers?

9/11 was definatly NOT FAKE. I believe only idiotic, ignorant people think so. I just didn't realize we have so many people around the world who think so. Even in the United States!

So why do people believe that it was fake, and why do many think it was planned by our own American government?

People seem to sterotype in a bad way about Muslim people, when almost always the bad terrorist actions are from Muslim extremists.

I've noticed that as a female I tend to relate to and pray more to the Goddess then the God. As males do you relate more to the Gods?

I often come across people talking in terms of levels, states of spiritual development, one at a higher level than another. Is spiritual development a process similar to material development where you have to work in a certain way to reach certain goals. Is there a similar formula to be followed to be spiritually elevated ?

How can you find it?
I believe you first have to have the "Mind of Christ" - we have to come to know about Jesus Christ, know how he felt about things, and then follow his example. We also have to follow the fruitage of the spirit found at Galatians 5:22,23 -  On the other hand, the fruitage of the spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, faith, mildness, self-control. Against such things there is no law.
What do you think?

Why are the muslims not out in force in the streets in outrage of their religion being disgraced with the terrorism in the name of Islam?
Isn't that more reason to protest about than some cartoon drawings?

Outside of the Christian 'argument' that all other religious ideas are false, why is it so acceptable to Christians that there is an everlasting concept of life after death (either eternity in hell or the giving of a new body upon entrance to heaven), yet it is claimed by the very same people that rebirth or reincarnation (which are not the same concept) is false, impossible, ludicrous, etc?

Within all there is a disposal of a physical body, leaving over a soul, spirit, mind, etc. which then continues on in some form or another...

Also, if you consider Buddhist rebirth to be simply the soul being reborn into a new body and starting over, please read/leard about it before answering.

Do you have a soul? Or is that an "imaginary friend" too? Do you ever think about their even being a God?

There ought to be a drink for every time someone does this: expounds on how ignorant he or she is about science, providing many examples along the way, and then argues that their ignorance of science proves God must exist.

Does anyone here think the more ignorant they are, the more proof there is a god?

2007-07-02 05:06:21 · 21 answers · asked by UpChuck 3 in Religion & Spirituality

Last week my neighbour Archie Futtock burned to death in his car on the I70.

As a Born Again Christian I think he will go to hell. This is because he was a sinner.

If he was burned, this means only his body was destroyed and his soul is still intact.

So then his soul goes to hell. Our preacher says hell is full of fire and brimstone.

But I am worried that his soul might not suffer.

If the car wreck did not burn his soul, then how will hell burn his soul, or even make his soul uncomfortable?

Are souls fireproof because they are made from invisible materials like asbestos?

I need some serious theological help from you experts please.

King David's Top 7 List

From our home Temple in Jerusalem. King David's top seven reasons why Jesus was not the Jewish Messiah.

7) Unwritten Jewish Oral Law Tradition: Messiah not allowed to have more than 100 million innocents killed in his name.

6) At least David Copperfield reappears.

5) Required to fulfill minimum of one Messianic prophecy in Tanakh within first 1,000 years (or first 1,500 years if extended Messiah warranty coverage is purchased).

4) Before telling followers to believe based on faith alone, forgot to say, “Simon says”.

3) Unlike Maimonides, didn't have enough sense to listen to mother and become doctor.

2) Is unquestionably considered Messiah in Poland.

1) Isaiah warns us not to follow a man-made religion led by a carpenter in Chapter 44.

See the link below for more proof that the "New Testement" is all wrong.

So who knows the Jewish prophecies better, Jews or Christians?

It sure feels good to be back in America after a week in the UK. Nothing better than coming home to America after spending a week in a foreign country.

Canada doesn't really count as a foreign country, since going there is sort of like visiting Minnesota......
