I hope it's okay to place this query in R&S - several relatives in my extended family (on my mother's side - aunts, cousins and grandparents) as well as my mom, have experienced a lot of strange events, esp. in recent years.

Too many examples to provide here, but I will give you one: 2 years ago my cousin lost her mother to cancer and then her brother committed suicide 1 month later. Since then, she has moved into her mother's home (no one died there) and has heard noises coming out of what used to be her brother's room and has actually woken in the middle of the night to see her mother standing over her...this is just a very minor example of things that have happened and continue to happen in my extended family.

My question is this - is my family cursed? Why do some people experience so much spiritual/supernatural phenomena? It is my personal belief that these events are caused by demonic activity. What can be done to break this trend? Thanks for any help/advice you can give me

There is something to be said about music. Music is very powerful indeed! I like listening to a lot of smooth jazz. Piano music to be more specific. Makes me happy. ( ^ _ ^ )

this is for parents who love their children, If your baby offends you, would you set him ablaze and left for dead?

Is this the agape,unconditional godly love you always talk about where you love someone no matter what they have done, well human love is more forgiving to me...

the prophecy isn't made and fulfilled in the Bible? I mean stuff that has happened recently that we can honestly say that the Bible told us was going to happen??

Please include Verse, Event, and a brief explanation of how the Verse predicts the event. And please no Bible codes - if God made a prophecy I would like to think he wouldn't try to hide it from us.

Maybe I come off as a cheapskate but i live about 30 min out of town and when I have to catch a taxi home, I often ask around to where people are going if they want to share.
Is this rude?
Surely I could be doing them a favour as well as myself.
I have gotten home before on 10 dollars instead of 40.
But people being people, often look at me like I'm asking them for a lift home in their car or something.

please I dont want everybody and their dog telling me your IQ is higher than 130, because only 2.1% of all people have an IQ higher than 130. No matter what online tests say, you are more than likely not as smart as Albert Einstein.

I am, of course, and have always been an atheist.I have repeatedly said that in my opinion the idea of a personal God is a childlike one. During the youthful period of mankind's spiritual evolution, human fantasy created gods in man's own image.
--Albert Einstein

Religion is comparable to a childhood neurosis.
- Sigmund Freud

To call on them to give up their illusions about their condition is to call on them to give up a condition that requires illusions.
-Karl Marx

The day will come when the mystical generation of Jesus by the Supreme Being in the womb of a virgin, will be classed with the fable of the generation of Minerva in the brain of Jupiter.
