Christians believe in heaven and hell, while other religions believe in re-incarnations, life after death,ect..... how do we know what is true, or if any are.

If your an athiest and don't believe in god then fine thats up to you. Its free will. What i have a promblem with are people who try to say that believing in god is pathetic. There was even some who called jesus gay. People who truly believe in god are faithful and at least it shows that you believe in something greater then yourself instead of the evils in this world.

for christians/non christians. how do you feel when someone hands you a tract? Has anyone come to Jesus after reading one? just wondering because I know people who hand them out all the time. I personally would get annoyed, so I'm wondering if that's just a matter of opinion.
thanks!

Not to have people call me a freak, and please don't? Well I just need someone to give me advice on what to do. I'm only 14 so give me peace please. I've always been a medium, I see spirits and I can tell what peoples aura's are when I'm with them in person. I used to be really freaked out by it, and I still sort of am. My grandmother is like me, and she tells me to send them to the light, because they are clearly lost and they need guidance and they come to me because they know I can help them. But there are two particular spirits that won't leave. I've sent them to the light before and they dissapear for a while and I still see them. One follows me everywhere, he's a man, and the other is a little boy who lurks around my house. I think he may have something to do with the other spirit that we have in our house. But shes a lady. Anyway, the man is not my guardian angel because mine is a woman. And hes not my sister's, although hers is a man. Please help me out. I don't know what to do

A long time ago I read a scripture in the bible about teh living and the dead where in the village, I think this was time of Jesus's resurection but I cannot remember where I found it. However I know its in the bible, does anyone know what I am referring to.

Thanks

Recently I read an article that intimated women overplay the pain to get pampering and sympathy which surprised me. Is there any truth in this?

2007-08-04 08:42:15 · 47 answers · asked by Dave H 1 in Religion & Spirituality

why are people surprised at me when I say that I cannot wait to be there?
I have lung disease and most likely will be dead within 5 years whether I get treatment or not. I have made some bad choices in my life and deal with daily persecution because of my past actions (even from some of my "Christian" bretheren).
So why, when I say I look forward to death and heaven, do people insist I seek psychiatric treatment (which I am btw, so please don't tell me to see a shrink) and not have a "death-wish"? Why should I fight to stay alive, when I really want to go and meet my creator?
I am not considering suicide, but I am considering stopping treatment.
I am really more interested in getting answers from Christians, as that is my faith, but I would be honored to accept answers from other faiths as well.

He eats with his fork in his right hand. Even though I'm left handed I've never done this. It drives me potty. He doesn't think it's important, even if he eats out, but I told him people will judge him for this. Know it sounds snobby, but that's the way I am.

Hello, all! I pray that you are doing wonderful this afternoon. You know we often think "if God will give us this, or do that for us, we will be happy" Let me tell you something that I was in a position to be a blessing to someone else today, and it wasn't me that did it. It was the Holy Spirit that did it. And do you know that I feel so happy that I feel like I was the one who recieved something? I wish I could explain it to you. It just makes tears well up in my eyes, because I truly realize that God blesses us in so many different ways and today He blessed my soul. Fellow brothers and sisters, God is Good!!!! I just wanted to share with you a bit of praise and I want to tell you all, you can write me if you need prayer or need to talk because I am here. I love you all. Cat

In Internet terminology, a troll is someone who intentionally posts messages about sensitive topics constructed to cause controversy in an online community such as an online discussion forum or USENET groups in order to bait users into responding. They may also plant images and data on networks that others may find disturbing in order to cause confrontation. More specifically a troll is an insult or accusation made against a poster. It would be highly unusual for any internet poster to claim the title of troll, rather a community member may try to deflate a post that is controversial or thought provoking by referring to it as a “troll”.…To call someone a troll is to say that any dispute over a post is not valid not because the issues raised are not valid, but to claim the intent of the poster invalidates the post. As a speech act, the term troll is generally used as an ad hominem argument, attacking the poster rather than the content or issues of the post. …The word likely gained currency because of its apt second meaning, drawn from the trolls portrayed in Scandinavian folklore and children's tales; they are often ugly, obnoxious creatures bent on mischief and wickedness. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_troll

Is it true that Baptists get a special pass for Judgment Day, and go directly to heaven?

While the rest of us will have to stand in line for the Judgment?

I don't think that's fair. I also heard the Mormons get a special pass too.
