whether high energy crowd or candle lit monotony, sugestability is invoked in most religious circumstance.
He converts a room of people, instantly. Here he debuncs both major religion, and spiritualistic methods, without attacking religion.
People are predictable, sugestable and incredibly easy to influence.

Just be aware of the methods that can be used against you, alright?

In John 3:13 >Jesuds says "And no man has ascended up to heaven, But He that came downn from heaven, even the Son of man which is in Heaven"
In John 3:5 > Jesus says, Verily,verily I say to you, except a man be born of water and of the Spirit he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God.
In 1 Corinthians 15:50 > Now this I say brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither does corruption inherit incorruption.
Jesuus Christ is the one that baptize with the spieit, and change you; He has not baptized any one yet; He will do it when He returnes to claim His Kingdom.
Why, enyways, would we be going to heaven now, when the heavens and earth is going to be cleaned by fire; there will be a new heaven and a new earth, and afyter the Millennium, God the Father(ELOHIM), is coming down to earth with His Kingdom, to be with his people. Revelations 21:1-27.

Why is it that republican and religious and secular conservatives continue make family values an election issue. The issue of family values and morality was ONE of the hallmark reasons for the Republican take-over of congress and it was also used as a theme during Bush’s first run for office.

Read the list of “hypocrites” below and respond whether or not you think that family values was/is a “SMOKE SCREEN” to win favor and votes


POPULAR SCANDALS


1.Senator Larry Craig, recently pleaded guilty to lued homosexual acts in an Airport. He still defiantly claims that he is not gay.

2.Mark Foley, had phone sex and indecent conversations with male pages.

3.George W. Bush, Republican president, accused in a criminal complaint and lawsuit of raping Margie Schoedinger, who later committed suicide. Accused by Tammy Phillips, a former stripper quoted in the National Enquirer in 2000 saying she had an affair with Bush that had ended in 1999

4.Senator David Vitter (R-La) who ran a hard-core platform on traditional family values, name was found on a Madams list. He told his constituents that it was a “private issue” and to leave him alone.

5.Arnold Schwarzenegger, Republican governor, had sex with a 16 year old when he was 28.

6.Joe Scarborough, former Republican Congressman, currently a conservative talk show host. Resigned his congressional seat abruptly to spend more time with his family, amidst allegations of an affair. His intern, Lori Klausutis, was soon after found dead in his office. The medical examiner, who had his license revoked in Missouri for falsifying information in an autopsy report, and suspended in Florida for six years, ruled the case an accident, after giving conflicting information about her injuries. He said he lied about them because "The last thing we wanted was 40 questions about a head injury."

7.John E. Peterson, Congressman (R-Pa), accused of sexual harassment and creation of a hostile work environment by six women. Peterson has refused to admit a crime, saying only "I may have been an excessive hugger."

8.Henry Hyde, Judge who oversaw Clinton's impeachment proceedings, prominent opponent of reproductive rights, who had an extramarital affair with a woman who was married and had three children, during the course of which she and her husband were divorced.

9.Newt Gingrich, married three times. Gingrich campaign worker Anne Manning admitted that she gave Newt oral sex while he was still married to his first wife. Informed one wife he was filing for divorce while she was in the hospital recovering from cancer treatments

10.Richard A. Dasen Sr., Republican benefactor of conservative Christian groups, convicted of sexual abuse of children, promotion of prostitution and several counts of solicitation, enough to add up to a sentence of 126 years in prison


Conservative Personalities and Figure Scandals

1.Paul Crouch Televangelist, Former President of Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN). Paid $425,000 in hush money in an attempt to cover up a gay affair.
2.Ted Haggard, popular conservative pastor who advised Bush on Family Values issues was outed by a male prostitute who also alleged that he gave Haggard drugs.
3.Rush Limbaugh, triple-divorcee
4.Bill O'Reilly Right-wing conservative talk show host on Fox News, sued for sexual harassment by his producer.
5.Dr. Laura Schlessinger, right wing conservative radio host. Promotes family values, estranged from her mother, opposes birth control, has had her tubes tied, espouses saving oneself for marriage, admits to having had sex before she was married, opposes adultery, has committed adultery while she was married, and has slept with a married man, opposes divorce, is divorced and remarried, has posed for nude photos which are available online.


There are many, many, many more. I know that I am going to be accused of being repub-coserv-basher. I am not, I know the democrats have just as many scandals if not more. However, I think that the whole PLATFORM OF CONSERVATIVE FAMILY VALUES IS A DISINGENIOUS strategy to rally votes and to swing elections. THIS LIST DEMONSTRATES THE FACT THAT NO ONE PRACTICES WHAT THEY PREACH!!!
I also believe that we are all human and everyone makes mistakes, but it is VERY HYPOCRITICAL to impose ideas that these “cultural-icons” don’t keep!
(((What are your thoughts???)))))))

to a group of people (like Atheists) and then block the people that are Atheists? I've had this happen several times now. The majority of these particular peoples questions are to Atheists (or the fabulous term, non-believers), yet I don't get to answer them without creating another account?
What kind of answers do you want if you don't like the ones you get? You're the one asking me a question after all!

What makes you think that other religions are a bunch of crap and your's is true? What makes you so sure that your God is the one true God and that all the other hundreds of Gods and Goddess that are worshipped are false? Because your Bible, Torah, Quaran, or holy tome of some sort says so? I hate to break it to you but all those books are biased literature.

And no, I'm not an Atheist.

If you do not believe in God. Then why do you guys constantly try to refute the bible and disprove God? Sounds like you unbelievers are a little uptight about religion. So far we have evolution.. that didn't work so let's try the big bang. lol

either way you slice it. you cannot disprove God made it happen. Can't you see that you're stuck between a rock and a hard place?

If you do not believe in God. That's fine by me, that is your choice, but why are you unbelievers bringing your hateful comments into a religion section?

Satan is laughing at you.. Saying You fools!!

If Jesus was on earth today and He performed miracles in front of your very eyes like bringing a dead person to life or healing someone of cancer would you believe in God? Or would you be stubborn like the Jews?

“And when he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each holding a harp, and with golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints” (Rev. 5:8)

"And another angel came and stood at the altar with a gold censer; and he was given much incense to mingle with the prayers of all the saints upon the golden altar before the throne; and the smoke of the incense rose with the prayers of the saints from the hand of the angel before God." (Rev. 8:3-4)

does this mean the 10 commandments are no longer & haven't been in effect since he died?? Is there such a thing as sin anymore or has the word 'sin' been replaced with the word 'crime'
And when the supposed 2nd coming of Christ happens---do you think he is going to die too---and just what would he die for

After reading the question regarding Goldwing's loss, I've once again been reminded that we shouldn't fear death, it's a transition. In our culture, the majority of people do but I have to wonder, are "souls" worried and scared before they come into this world? I doubt it. Knowing that every living thing on this earth is temporary and moves on, makes me realize our time here is short and should be savored.
I don't care if you don't agree with me, I'm just curious how other people perceive death.

I know that every answer will be speculation because we cannot be sure, but I am curious as to what others think Leviathan was.

"Let those who curse days curse that day. Let them prepare to wake up the sea monster Leviathan" (Job 3:8 NCV)

"God, you have been our king for a long time. You bring salvation to the earth. You split open the sea by your power and broke the heads of the sea monster. You smashed the heads of the monster Leviathan and gave him to the desert creatures as food." (Psalms 74:12-14 NCV)

"Lord, you have made many things; with your wisdom you made them all. The earth is full of your riches. Look at the sea, so big and wide, with creatures large and small that cannot be counted. Ships travel over the ocean, and there is the sea monster Leviathan, which you made to play there." (Psalms 104:24 - 26 NCV)
