Each Religion has helped mankind!!!?

Paganism increased in man the light of beauty, the largeness and height of his life, his aim at many sided perfection

Christianity gave him some vision of divine love and charity

Buddhism has shown him a noble way to be wiser, gentler,purer,

Judaism and Islam showed how to be religiously faithful in action and zealously devoted to God

Hinduism has opened to him the largest and profoundest spiritual possiblilities.

And Finally athesists are ...not God disguised laughing at himself and mocking at himself ?

(As written by Sri Aurobindo-the great hindu philosopher

US Senate to open with Hindu prayers
27 Jun 2007, 0437 hrs

NEW YORK: History will be created when a Hindu prayer will be recited at the opening of the US Senate in Washington DC on July 12.

Rajan Zed, a Hindu chaplain, said that he had been officially asked to say the prayer. He said he believes this may be the first time any Hindu prayer is delivered in the Senate since its formation in 1789.

We were created to go through life as a test and worship God. But why he wants us to worship him? God wants attention? God wants to feel empowered?

Words of the Rabbis Opposing Zionism -

Those who assist the Zionists will pay at the Day of Judgment, because they are causing the masses to sin. Therefore, whoever is on the side of G-d and his Torah shall not join with evildoers and not become attached to them. On the contrary, they should oppose them as much as possible."

Your friend in truth, Shalom Dov Ber from Lubavitch

Is Christianity the true religion or is it a false religion? The reason why I ask is because I asked a question about whether Messianic Judaism was Judaism or Christianity and some of The Jews were saying that it's heresy to believe in Jesus as the Messiah and somebody gave me a link to a site that had this link in it. Link's right here as to why the Jews don't accept Jesus as the Messiah:

My boyfriend and I have been together for over five years and are not married. We are also not planning on getting married anytime in the near future. However, whenever we meet someone, they almost always ask "how long have you been together?" When we say 5 years, they almost always ask "When are you getting married?" or "Where's the ring??" or something similiar. We would rather not discuss our private reasons for not getting married & find it rude that people ask us this, especially if we DO give some sort of answer & they keep harping on it. What would be a good response to this question without being rude in return? They also sometimes ask "You do want to get married right?" or something similar. Any suggestions you guys may have would be great. Thanks! :)

I hear people say that Goid gave people "free will" because He wanted to be worshipped by something that freely chose to worship Him.

But if the angels didn't already have free will, how could Satan have rebelled against God?

And if they had "free will", then God was already being worshipped by beings who have "free will".

So why give us "free will"?

I've been told in a previous question that God deliberately designed us to have the freedom to sin, because he wants us to have free will.

But how do we demonstrate we have free will unless we choose something God would not want us to do?

So God gave us free will so we would choose to sin.

Then, once we've become addicted to sin (such that no human can ever stop), we're supposed to feel very very guilty about it and promise God we will do our best to stop sinning.

Then, maybe, God will let us into heaven.

So God wants us to sin till we're addicted and can never stop, and then he wants us to feel guilty about it and make futile promises to stop sinning.

This is the God your free will chooses to believe is the true God and Creator of the Universe?

Most scheduled fireworks displays in my area are 'scheduled' for 9:00 or 9:30. So is "dusk" another way of saying 9:00?

I wrote: La maison que nous avons loué
It was corrected to: La maison que nous avions loué

I was just wondering why it was corrected to avions. Is it a rule that I don't know of? Or has it just been read wrong by the person correcting?
