How is it that the definition of faith tells us otherwise? That there is no proof in faith. I mean if there is no proof, how does the truth part come in?

Is there a Mormon that can answer my question?

Does Mormon believe in fighting especially the US troops? Would they called it a sin or a blessing?

I am doing some research about Mitt Romney and whether he would be good but he appear to show 50/50 for the support on US troop. He stated that his son's choice "was his decision" regarding whether he want to volunteer to serve in the military.

Do you "choose" every thought you have ever had, or did some thoughts occur without you ever choosing them?

Seriouse answers from believers only please.

would the USA be a fallin country if we stopped supporting Israel such as rome, the persians, etc?

What religion is the RIGHT one? I am Baptist...but what if I get die and I am getting judged and I go to Hell because I followed the wrong Religion...how can we be sure? Is the King James version of the BIble the RIGHT version...or the WRONG one?

And how can I keep my faith alive? I am 15 and a sophomore in highschool, and yet I have evolution and other things saying God is just a fairy tale...what can I do to get away from it?!

And the Rapture...I hear he is going to come like a thief in the night to collect the followers and then I hear that we are going to have to suffer a little bit then he is coming.

Can someone (a follower with serious answers only) please explain this to me?

I'm a sophomore in college and don't think I'll have that much to spend on Xmas gifts this year.

However, I do have to get something really cool for my godson, who will be 2 years old.

I need ideas of places where I can get quality gift for less.

Thank you for your help!

Do you believe there are limitations as to what type of sex you can have in the sanctity of marriage?

1 Thessalonians 5:17 says Christians should pray without ceasing.

If you are born again then is God in you?
Did Jesus say "I will never leave you"?
Would prayer then be communication with God who is always with you and in you?

Are you tired of believing in a myth about a man who walks on water? Are you tired of believing things that just don't seem to be true? Are you tired of that empty space "Jesus" doesn't fill?

There is a man, a humble man, who denies that he is special. And yet, he can perform miraculous feats. He DOES walk on water. And he lets you see it. He doesn't write it in a book and forget, he let's you see him as he performs his signs. He is the new, IMPROVED Jesus. Yet he asks only one thing from you;

"Believe," he says.

Who is like Him?
Who can compete with Him?

It makes goosebumbs run down my back!

I hate politics, but it surprises me that some people actually think he's a symbol for Muslims and Islam.

Isn't that shocking?

My maintenance man at my apartment complex came to fix my fridge today, and when he was going to leave, he asked me if I knew whether I was going to heaven. When I told him I didnt believe in the heaven and hell of the bible, or the bible at all, he proceeded to take a good 45 minutes out of my time to tell me about how jesus saved his life and how the apocalypse was coming and how god is personal to every one of our lives.

Now, I told him that I was raised catholic, that I had been to 3 or 4 different churches (including the one he goes to) and made the descision based on everything I learned there that the god that is taught in the bible is just one facet of a god that we will NEVER be able to understand or explain, and every person needs to find what ever spiritual being satisfies them on their own, not through others. And I despise churches and all organized religion for that reason. And still he went on!

Why do christians feel the need to do this? I'm perfectly happy how I am!

Please can someone explain the connection between religion and education? Are publicly funded religious schools obliged to offer places to children who do not have a specific belief system. (or rather their parents don't.) I still find it difficult to square the need for schools to adopt a particular belief sytstem. It surely is time to segregate the religious from the eduction system. I find it hard to accept that, after a schooling in the forties and fifties, when religion was taught as a fact, rather than as a theory, that it is impossible for students to be exposed to many religious beliefs in the course of their education. Perhaps when they are older their parents will then allow them to choose a religion. Or none at all.
I know that schools which have a religious identity seem to produce good quality education. But to exclude those who do not subscribe to their religion seems well...uncharitable.
But why should their be a connection? It just does not seem to make any sense.

Prior to the supposed covenant between god and the Israelites, what is known of the beliefs followed by that group of people? Were they polytheistic, and if so do we know anything of the pantheon they followed?

Any references can you recommend for further reading welcomed.
