NOT just a song by the Police but a philosophical/theological idea by John Locke. What are your thoughts on this philosophy? I found it rather earth shattering when I was a practicing Catholic.
It made me realize that I am not the sum total of just 'materials' and made me have a much broader perspective on the nature of human beings and inherent divinity. Thoughts? Thanks and Namaste

I was hoping someone could translate these two sentences. They are on some headstones, and I believe they are German:

Der herr ist Mein Hirte
Mir Wird Nichts Mangeln

(This other one, I may have copied wrong, if the spacing is off, or I spelled something wrong, I apologize, they were pretty old headstones)

Bleibet Fest Im Kamfe
Stehn Um Die Ewige Krone

Thank you for any and all help.

Hey, I just got my first violation notice for asking the following question:

Where is the cross that Jesus died upon?

Question Details:

You would think, for an event of such magnitude as the death and resurrection of the very son of 'God' himself, people would have done all they could to preserve any evidence, such as the cross he died on. So where is the cross? They could produce evidence of his existence, via things like the shroud of Turin (which isn't actually evidence, since it's a proven fraud), but they can't even produce the cross?

So what's so horrid about asking this question? Inquiring minds wanna know!

Ever heard of the Golden rule of Live and Let Live. From the type of questions many of you post, No!
You don't want to be generalized, yet many of you generalize others? why?
How can you say something doesn't even exist, and hate it at the same time? If you say you don't! then you are not reading your own questions.
Why do you deliberately reject and attack God, and whatever related to God, and yet you don't attack Satan, the Devil? Are you his Attorney, and that is why you place all the blame on God and defend him in your way? Is that kind of blame the parents for what the kids do or don't?
Atheists want to tell others how the majority criminals are thesist. Guess who the Computer hackers are? and how of a major problem is today, especially when everything is depended on computer? Just to name one type of crimes.
When it comes to believing in God, the only one you seems up in arm is against the Christians? why?
Can you live & let Live?

Ponder upon a star Dear Atheist. Ty.

JAKARTA (Reuters) - A plan to carry out virginity tests on female high school students in a district in Indonesia's West Java province has been dropped after a public outcry, media reports said.



The head of Indramayu district, Irianto Syafiuddin, is reported to have made the proposal for virginity tests after a video showing two high school students having sex circulated via mobile phones.

"Because many people oppose it, we cancelled (the plan)," Syafiuddin was quoted as saying by online news service Detik.com.

Syafiuddin could not immediately be contacted, but according to media reports he will look for an alternative way to prevent students from engaging in pre-marital sex.

Students, parents and activists viewed the planned virginity tests on thousands of high school students in the district as a violation of human rights, the Jakarta Post said.

"We can't accept this idea. It's unfair as the porn video was just an isolated case," a female student, Gita, was quoted as saying by the Post.

Many in Indonesia, the world's most populous Muslim country, place high value on virginity, although pre-marital sex is not uncommon among the younger generation.

When the jerk sitting next to me starts his annoying finger-tapping on his damn desk, is it Satan sending him Morse-code messages? If so, would I be justified if I had to resort to violence to stop the Prince of Darkness from infiltrating the office environment?

The only ways I can think of are:

1) personal thought alteration
2) social interaction
3) alteration of your physical environment

If he can't alter your free will then he can't do the first two because he also wouldn't be able to alter the free will of others. The only possible way is if he met you on Earth and personally speaks to you.

The other possibility is alteration of the physical environment. Can he move objects on Earth? Does he have to manifest as a human and physcially carry them or can he cause them to move on their own? If he has to manifest as a human, doesn't that limit his influence since he has limited time to operate?

And what's he doing leaving Hell anyway? I thought he was sent there, in which case his only influence is telekinesis and we never see that.

What gives?

First let me say that being underwhelmed is not the same as not having anything to do, or being caught up in everything. It's not being lazy. It's more about being under-utilized and not having enough responsibility.

So have you heard of the concept, or have experience with it? How have you worked through it?

Seriously, I just wondered what importance he is to their faith, as opposed to protestants. Why do they feel the need to have a Pope? What does he do? Is there scripture that backs up the need to have him? I just want to understand. :o)

I get that the point of reincarnation is to eventually attain nirvana/moksha/heaven (wotever u wanna call it). But how did the souls get caught in the karmic cycle in the first place? is there something equivalent to the First Sin for reincarnation?

Do you find women wearing Thong bathing suits degrading? I don't understand why they'd want their azz hanging out for all to see. Is it desperation, attention seeking, exhibitionism...what's your take on this subject?
