Its often been said that we really know of only one man who in history who is saved for sure. That is, of course, the thief who was crucified alongside Jesus. Jesus said to him "today you and I will be together in paradise". No where else is the Bible that clear about the fate of any particular human soul. Although I think there was at least one person in the Old Testament who was raised up into heaven.

But what about Hell? Does the Bible tell us of any particular people who are in Hell, or who were at least bound for Hell?

I am not talking about various passages that say what KIND of people will go to Hell. Rather I am asking is if there is are any individual persons who we know are in Hell?

No matter what a person is done, salvation is always a possibility for them. So there is no one in history that we can look at and know for sure where they are in the afterlife.

I don't believe anyone should accept the Nobel Peace Prize.

One who truly works for peace should have no desire for a prize. One seeks peace because of the principles they stand for...whether you are recognized or not.

Is this a far fetch idea?

since there is no such thing as literal

even the word "literal" was built upon metaphors (it was derived from the more tangible concept/word "letter")

PEW Global Attitudes Poll. http://pewglobal.org/commentary/display.php?AnalysisID=1009

I do apologize for supporting my position. Reality is ugly, so make sure to respond with unsupported wishful thinking, or if your Muslim, with propaganda.

Read all the PEW polls since 911 while your at it...in fact, research PEW itself, see if I exagerrate when I say they are the best in the world in terms of reputation.

If most...again...most (as in majority) muslims share Bin Ladens worldview, than we cant really call Bin Laden and extremist, because theres nothing extreme about his views within his community. Maybe you can call him militant, but considering that almost all armed conflict worldwide is Islamic, you certainly cant say hes in a small club.

A few days ago Scooter Libby was pardoned by our "chistian" President because the sentence was too harsh he said. Curious about what the bible says about this issue I found
Deuteronomy 19:18-19, Proverbs 19:5, Matthew 19:18, Mark 10:19, Exodus 20:16, Luke 18:20, Romans 13:9 And these are only a few that say a false witness/ liar, a person that commits perjury should be punished and sometimes by death. So was 30 months too harsh? And does President Bush really beleive and fear God or is this just a show for those not smart enough to know better?

I see so many people say, "Why are you Atheists here on the religious forum?" I like the diversity of people on R & S. It's good that we don't all agree because we learn a lot from each other. I learned yesterday that Muslims celebrate the 4th of July. Didn't know that. The bickering doesn't bother me. We attack them as much as they attack us. It's just how the site works. What does everyone else think?

How fantastic is Palm Reading? I went to the shops yesterday and decided on the spur of the moment to get my palm read. It was wonderful. He was really in tune with all the things that have happened and my personality. It was a great experience and during our time the light we sat next two was flickering. I could feel my guides there! Does anyone know a place where i can study palm reading further?

I am currently trying to learn more about Magick, and would like to determine which "path" I should choose (whether I study Ceremonial Magick, Wicca, and etc). I am wondering how is the Magick of the different branches different. For from what I understand Magick comes from the same source. Also which is the "best path" to follow according to your own personal oppinions/ experience? And what is the best way to approach Magick? I am currently practicing meditation, and reading several Magick related books and sites.
