I just read this. Very interesting, and right on the mark in my opinion. Here are a few snippets. You can read the entire article at the link below.


"It is an honest statement. It is much better than the so-called 'church diplomacy'." It shows how close or, on the contrary, how divided we are," Metropolitan Kirill of Smolensk and Kaliningrad, who heads the Moscow Patriarchate Department for External Church Relations, told journalists in Moscow.

"For an honest theological dialogue to happen, one should have a clear view of the position of the other side," because "it helps understand how different we are," he said. Basically, the Vatican's current document has nothing new and is in "full conformity with the doctrine of the Catholic Church," Metropolitan Kirill said.

Hi! I don't read the bible too often so I don't know where I
can find certain stuff. Can anyone tell me where I can find
stuff about virginity in the bible. For example, where it says
to wait until marriage, why it's important and stuff like that.
Pretty much... anything that has to do with virginity.
thank you!

There are two reasons people research the true nature of the things; one is for worldly gains; fame, money, etc. and other one is for spiritual development. One who chooses the path for spiritual development attains the samyak-darshana.
Even if they call *their* right faith :
"Islam", "Buddhism", "Christianity", "Paganism" or etc, etc.

Don't you think so?

Is this information accurate?

this really sounds kinda like a human rights violation because as humans we retain the right to freedom of religion and freedom of beliefs.

Somehow a Gregorian chant just doesn't seem to do it for some people.

When you say Pascal Wager! Do you know what are you really saying!

Why don't you use your brain to respond to the questions "under the Pascal wager Thing" uhmm

That theory is based on ignorance about God, and I just simply don't care about Mister Pascal


Drink!

they made better, more effective bombs, killed thousands of brittish and irish and even assasinated members of the royal family, though people seem to like them throughout the world.
If you look at the radical muslims, and the percentage of normal muslims in the world, it is but a fraction; but of the irish, it is very high, and now they are releasing mass murderers from jail who were IRA? i dont understand. Why all muslims should be treated so disrespectfully...and I am not muslim btw.

To elaborate: How is it that people can go through life everyday hurting, abusing and mistreating (gossiping, belittling) others, sometimes even in the name of their religion and yet they will be forgiven so it's ok. Who are these people to judge whether or not they will or will not be forgiven? Who are they to tell us we will go to hell? I mean does someone hand out a license for this when they sign up to some huge organized true faith religion. Somehow if there is a God and Jesus in the way the big money churches want you to believe. Would they really be ok with their beliefs and sayings being manipulated to fit the situation at hand? Allowing people no personal responsibility for their actions?

My boyfriend is a rapper/MC/lyricist and he writes a lot of positive and conscious things in his music. I want to create a radio station/TV station/ Magazine/ or Record label that only features positive and conscious hip-hop music like Common, Wyclef Jean, Nas, Talib Kaleli, Alicia Keys, India Arie, etc, etc. I'm 16 years old and I think that Hip-ho pand rap music today is very horrible and it lost its message. I'm trying to find a cure for hip-hops illness.

Awesome! Seems like no Y/A couldn't find any similar questions.

Okay more here's some more details. God didn't have to create the perfect humans, but he sure didn't have to create humans with the capacity and potential for hate and anger. If he was omniscient and can see ahead he would have known his creation would be doomed to cause suffering and pain amongst themselves.

Sure humans can be given free will. But as a creator, god could easily have had a blue print which made humans without the capacity for these negative characteristics. It just doesn't make sense for a loving god to plant these defective and destructive characteristics into his creations.

You say humans with free will would have found out about these anyways right? But I disagree. If you believe in a creator that is all powerful, then something as fundamental as this could not have been overlooked.

So many questions, but very similiar. I'm guilty of this too but...

Christians this,
Atheists that,
Catholics this
Jehova Witness' that,
Islam this,
Mormons that,
Science this,
Creation that,
FSM this,
logical fallacies that,

yada yada yada

Here's a good question:

Do think our personalities and our self-awareness is due to the divine? That we have a spirit?

Or

Is it all complex chemical reactions?

If your 14 year old came out to you and said "Mom/Dad.. I am gay" Would you accept it? How would you go about it? Would you have different feelings about your child or still love him/her as much as you ever did?

without all the other stuff. For instance: if it is a question pertaining to women, we bring in the man and vice verse. Do we not understand questions have their own logic and answers. Please stick with the question asked.
