When did you stop believing in Santa Claus? How did you tell your parents and how long did it take you to tell them?

Why don't followers of the Bible question why so many books are hidden?
Isn't every book important? Why should some be kept out? They say these stories are said to be "false writings", but how can anyone prove that? This has been on my mind since I woke up; so if anyone has some insight for me, share.

Do Hindus have to have children or is this a cultural thing?

Also, if this is true, why must a woman produce a son?

Believers in (a) God and (b) spirits that survive death, have a hard explaining such ideas to sceptics like me. But what about the reverse position?

Believers are entitled to ask how something that is only physical can have experiences. A lump of strictly physical rock cant, so why can strictly physical flesh?

I'm doing a study to see what compels individuals to pick up random strangers, hitch hikers, etc.

No jokes please. This is a serious inquiry.

Thank you!

What about....this Scripture: " If a man says he has no sin, he deceives himself and the truth is not in him"...?

2007-07-15 08:07:09 · 11 answers · asked by Anonymous in Religion & Spirituality

Okay now I do not want any answers like ghosts are not real they are demons sent from hell in disguise to decieve us. I know that theory already.

I ask because I am a Ghost Hunter/Paranormal Investigator and I see many people who join in the search for Ghosts. Some who I know personally do this secretly due to their church doctrine.

Every single church I ever attended said they do not exist.

If you are a Christian an do belive that sometimes people stick around as a ghost, please state your church prefrence like Baptist etc.

Also tell me if your church would approve or disprove. Please if you don't mind.

I know many will go ahead and tell me they are demons, but that is not my question. I want to hear from Christians who believe ghosts are real and not a threat to us.

Since that creation failed to heed the warning about the knowedge was it an imperfect creation by one who is presented as perfect?
Did the perfect creator create the situation to create a base of fear and punishment ?
How can such an entity be rightly spoken of as perfect?

If they were the first humans and they sinned, it means humans were DESIGNED sinful. If they weren't designed sinful they wouldn't have sinned-by definition. If you're given free will and you sin-you are sinful-no two ways about it. God forgives all anyway so there is no reason for these two to affect mankind? What kind of god would generalise two people's actions and then make us all worship him even though Jesus died for our sins anyway!! If he was perfect he knew full well his creations could sin if they were given free will-SO WHY TEST THEM?! These stories are quite frankly ludicrous! How does anyone believe that these are not completely man-made?
