from a logical point of view that is completely impossible since by loving "your enemy" he cant be called your enemy, since an enemy is by definition someone you dont really love (you will be his enemy but not the other way round)...so how come an infallible god asks anyone to do something that is not possible?

And you're tired of crying?

Is it better to kill some things/people over others? Does age matter? Race? Religion? Sex? Motion?

And, yes, I know my anger is simply misplaced hurt, even though it is justified. Thing is, I am NOT in the mood to play therapist with it. I'm fine, I'll be fine, don't worry. I just wanna kill something. What should I kill?

Gimme somethin' to kill.

Now.

(And for you lifeless morons who say yourself, go f*ck with someone else. Irony is not your strong point so you may want to skip Jokes & Riddles too).

Does anyone have any good ideas on what kids would like to get when they go trick or treating besides candy? I know, I know, kids want the candy but I really need some alternative views (don't worry I still plan on using candy!)
Do you think kids would like to get $.50 or something along those lines? Or maybe a small craft kit...I really just need ideas to bring to a group. Thanks in advance!

I asked my old man a while ago about who he thought Jesus Christ really was and he didn't seem to quite know the answer.

He said to me, "Wasn't he that joker who walked through the desert with a cross tattooed on his back?"

I'd be quite interested to learn about what you think on this matter. Was my father right or was Jesus really somebody who had an important connection to God who had come along to save every member of mankind from themselves and each other so that everyone might have a chance at everlasting life?

Not grammar or word usage - but style and flow and technique. I used to think I had talent for it - but lately I am reading some well written emails from customers these days and feeling I am slipping.

Why dosent anyone study death and life, whats the point in enjoying this life when its going to end.The whole world has fun wasting valued time for other things when they could do more studies on life after death.Is everyone stupid or with out a soul.I mean come on if alBert instine was so smart why did he wast his time inventing a stupid light when he could of studied how a BaBy grows in the mothers stomach or who makes a plant grow and studing the human Body to slowly add up the clues and put the puzzle together . People say do we have a spirit?we exsist dont we even when were stupid.how can someone creat your existance thats the real you. If your mind is all there or not .....you still exist. Every one should think like this.

Isnt rapture a very metaphorical way of saying: yer gonna die while youre in your physical body and then youre gonna change dimensions and go to heaven with your new dimensional body?

As we all know, your physical world is not where heaven is anymore?

Is heaven on another planet according to Christianity?

According to Christianity…

Biblegod chooses to have a child born into an abusive, violent and hellish home with parents that are Christian (Yes, I know not all Christian homes are this way but a significant number are). As the child grows they accumulate many scars (physical, emotional, mental and spiritual) at the hands of their Christian parents. Finally the child leaves home and hopefully through a lot of counseling they free themselves, at least to limited degree, from the hell they grew up in. As part of the freeing process they reject the ideologies of their parents including the Christianity. And at the end of their life Biblegod, in all his righteousness and holiness, will be glorified by torturing this person forever in hell because they rejected Christianity.

First off i want to say that i have no issue with guys being gay (dont want to offend anyone) but one of my close guy friends only hangs out with girls. He is never around guys ever. Could he be gay? Maybe im wrong but usually guys hang out guys sometimes at least. He always hangs out with girls on the weekends and drives around with us and stuff. Is he or no?

He betrayed me. He's a coward. He's not as powerful as he claims to be, he's like a shame to me. It's so sad that this God is the God of universe, I admit. I long for Justice. If you like me I have bad news for you, "Stop thinking that God will give u justice". He's never been able to. hes a coward
I can't imagine a God like this who says He cares when in fact He doesn't give a damn about you. If you pray a lot and bother just too much, He'll just slide it to you. Hate is strong word but I have no choice. It doesn't matter anyway if i hate him i know u do love him n that's good i wish i could.
just wanna wanna spit my anger i have against him out.
my question, Why does a mean, twisted, coward God like this exists?

When my best friend died in January, people told me it was part of God's plan, or that it was God's will.

When I ask what the point of prayer is, people tell me its not to ask for things, because God's will is always what will happen anyway, but rather, to establish a relationship with him.

But when I ask why God sends people to Hell, suddenly God's will isn't always what's done anymore, because of this magical thing you call free will.

What gives??

I see many people lying about what the Catholic Church teaches, believes and practices on here. Obviously they know that what they say are lies but continue to perpetrate these lies. The Bible teaches that this is bearing false witness as well and is against the commandments of God.

Can you feel justified by claiming ignorance or being blinded by hatred or prejudice. What will be your defense before the throne of God when every knee shall bow and every tongue will confess?

You must know that your man-made churches do not have the promises of Christ nor the authority given by Christ to His Church yet you have no fear of the almighty God who created the Church which you protest so falsely. Will your only defense be a dependence on His mercy and do you really think that your ignorance will save you from His judgement?


THE 9th COMMANDMENT
Exodus 20:16 "Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour."

Religious fact 1: God does not change.

Religious fact 2: God does not like human sacrifice?

Religious fact 3: Jesus got sacrificed for us?

Whats going on here? How could anyone convince the Jews of the truth of Jesus's message if they said: Jesus died for our sins? If you cant convince the Jews with this, why was Jesus sent in the first place?

2007-09-06 13:51:30 · 16 answers · asked by Antares 6 in Religion & Spirituality

This is a real trick question. Are you absolutely sure that Jesus is the true Christ or was the legacy of Augustus tranformed by ancient clergy to be a living image of a myth forward called Jesus?
Spellcheck does not work in the details of the question. I have never been put down for spelling that I did not find a misspelled word in the put down.
