I want to make a fake religion. I am not going to believe it but just make it. I am not going to practice any rituals. I still believe in Jesus. Is this a sin?

I know this path, it's not a much used one and slightly narrow but on it you will see sights you never knew existed. On this path you will have joy, contentment, serenity and love. If you don't believe what is at the end of this road, isn't the journey worth the walk to have what is offered? If you don't like or want what is offered, what have you lost?
Would you like to take a walk with me?

When people say things like:
"I knew I was gay when I was 5 and I found out Barbara Streisand cancelled her concert and I cried for a week"

"I knew I was gay when I was 8 and all the other girls did ballet and all I wanted was to play on the football team"

Grr...it's just stereotypes!!!! Maybe you just liked Barbara Streisand! It doesn't mean you are gay!!

this question is only for people who believe in the conditional security of the believer, eternal security people, please do not answer this question, thank you.

If you believe that your salvation is conditional - or that you can forfeit your salvation - how can you be assured that you are saved? how do you know? for example - are you sure you haven't sinned today? what about all the sins you commit that you aren't aware of? what about all the sins of things you are supposed to do that you failed to do? are you sure you covered everything? what about all your sins in your thoughts and your heart attitudes, are you sure that you never sinned in your heart? or in your thoughts? wouldn't you be living in fear? trying to make sure you did this and didn't do that? then isn't the focus on yourself and your ability to do this or that and not on what Christ did for you. How can He give you a gift and then take it back. What about if we are faithless He remains faithful?

The Islamic Faith has tremendous beauty and tremendous wisdom. Many people are ignorant of Islam and do not have any knowledge of the wisdom that is within it. So I ask this question: is justice an important teaching of Islam? It is a question for both Muslims and Non-Muslims.

I know this Thai girl who likes me, and I like her back. We'd like to go out and start a relationship but I'm a bit skeptical right now of how her parents would recieve me, because I hear Asian societies do tend to be a bit prejudice, or at least untrustful, of outsiders.

My ethnicity is Persian, but I was born and raised in the United States. My family and I aren't very religious so religion isn't a problem as far as my side goes.

I was hoping some Thai people would be able to give me advice on wether or not we should go through with our relationship.

The sound of people kissing is the most annoying sound ever. I want to tell people: "I'm happy you're in love or lust or what ever, but why do you need to rub it in my face?"

Do public displays of affection annoy you too?

are you ready for heaven? i sure am, im 14 and ive been saved since i was 12. but what are your opinons on heaven? i can't even imagine how great it would be. God doesn't really make it that hard on us. humans may live about 100 years, id rather live 100 years with suffering, and horrible world, and go to heaven with Jesus for ETERNITY!! Jesus has actually become a part of me, i can't live without him. i talk to him conatantly. but im babbling again, anyway my question is, what do you think heaven will be like?

Truth is everywhere, thanks to the Internet. We live in a time of the greatest choice... the greatest access to all things - both good and evil. At no other time in recorded history has mankind been so free to choose ... to grow in light, or to become evil.

Do you agree that we are living in the greatest of times?

Wow! I have just been listening to an audio mp3 version of the Dhammapada (a Buddhist scripture).

I am just thrilled at all these truths, just the same beautiful truths I have learned through the scriptures of my religion of origin, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

God reveals truth to all nations, and leaves none to dwell in darkness. How beautiful are the truths of God!

I have found so many similarities between my faith, Buddhism, Islam and ISKCON (Hare Krishnas). I honor God that he has spoken abundantly to his "other sheep," and the truths of His speech to humans are beautiful, from whichever nation they come.

Are you in love with the truths of God, as I am?

They want to deny gay's from marrying because (according to them) it would destroy the sanctity of marriage. But the bible says marriage is forever and yet the church allows divorced people to marry for a second, third, fourth, fifth time.
