Society & Culture - 12 September 2007

People say you need scientific evidence, but they are missing the whole point. God does NOT work for you. You work for him. He is above verbal communication. He communicates through feelings. He is at a whole different level than us and we can only hope to ever BEGIN to understand even a small part of him.

This is God's plan and it is vain for us to question it. The pride of man has been our undoing for our entire existence. We do not listen. We do not heed the words, but they are right in front of our faces.

We deserve to burn for our sins forever, yet God was so loving that he gave his only son to save us and wipe away our sins so we can be with him.

Give your heart to Jesus. Walk with him.

Your thoughts?

What do you think of what this man has to say about terrorism according this fatwa?

"Council of Saudi ‘Ulama', fatwa of February 2003:
"What is happening in some countries from the shedding of the innocent blood and the bombing of buildings and ships and the destruction of public and private installations is a criminal act against Islam. ... Those who carry out such acts have the deviant beliefs and misleading ideologies and are responsible for the crime. Islam and Muslims should not be held responsible for such actions."
The Dawn newspaper, Karachi, Pakistan, February 8, 2003, http://www.dawn.com/2003/02/08/top17.htm; also in "Public Statements by Senior Saudi Officials Condemning Extremism and Promoting Moderation," May 2004, http://www.saudiembassy.net/ReportLink/Report_Extremism_May04.pdf, page 10"

I am terrifyed of angels and all those happy people dancing around all day praising and singing.

I always liked pain I have been practicing over the years to get myself into love of pain since I need to avoid heaven. Besides me and God hate eachother.


Is this a normal feeling?

He believes in god, and i dont. We respect each others opinion and its never a problem. All the sudden out of no where he wants to start going to church... why? nothing has really happened and he NEVER goes to church. People wouldnt even believe him if he said he was thats how much he doesnt go... so it confuses me why he would want to do that when he never has and we have diff religions.

In todays world, we (people) claim that everything is going so well. The economic is doing well. We have billionairs and millionaires. We can telecommute to almost everywhere. Life is just great. Almost everyone forgets that we achieve these with the expenses of others.

People, when are we going to wake up from this dream. As much as I like the free enterprise system, it still does not solve this global mass. It is sad to say but I think we will never going to see "heaven on earth".

In my book, intelligent in screwing with each other does not count. We are no different from animals. We only won it by being at the top of the food chain.

Peace!

know someone that has?

People may have had out of body experiance but that is becuase they were laking oxygen to the brian, making them hallucinate, and why should you trust them over anyone eles that is telling you different. Just because they almost died doesnt make them an expert on science. Also the bible is just a book.

Its burning down in my guts all I feel is HATE towards God and I never felt so much hatred towards anyone or anything. Everytime I think about him I get sick, I can't believe I was a Christian. I can't believe I had the hoyl spirit. **** that he never wanted me anyways. I am going straight to hell and I don't give a **** anymore. Why should I love someone that knows I was going to hate him, I can't change my feelings anymore. ever since I started believing he was evil, and that he was Satan I never felt so angry and he told me he won't forgive me anyways, I HATE HIM! I screamed it into the heavens today, I went out a smoked a good draw to calm my hate I feel. When I am waking up to the smell of sulfur I will still hate him. He hates me too so we are even. *****

Why is it that JW's and Mormons try to convert everyone else to the way they believe? Even if the person is already a Christian, the Mormons and JWs say its not good enough, that their way is the only way? Whats up with that?

If Adam and Eve had 2 sons and they were the only people on Earth then how did they multiply and populate it? Was there some incest going on? I think so.

Previous to this month I was caught up in Creationism and Intelligent Design (Dr Dino ect) well I decided to take all the information I was reading and bring it to an a couple Proffessors at the University of Rochester and I sat down with them and asked them about each and everyone of the Anti-Evolution arguments and they took the time to refute each and every single one. I mean from fossil record to carbon dating. They even sat me down and showed me how I was wrong but not in a mean way. They didn't even know that arguments were creationist based and one of them is even a Christian. She said that evolution is a fact but some people just don't want to accept it and they spread propaganda because they are afraid it will damage our faith. She said that its ok to be a Christian and see evolution as gods work. I am not going to stop believing in God or Jesus but is it ok to accept evolution and still be a Christian?

What would be a good haloween costume to wear to a work party where children will be present? My work really wants everyone to dress up, but I don't want anything campy or cheezy.

I don't see the BVM any where in the early church (400 AD). So when did this occur. Does it relate to chivalry and the placing on women on pedistals. When were prayers through Mary made a part of Catholic doctrine?
Interested non-Catholic.

I can't remember where I heard it but I swear somewhere once I read about an old story that cold chills were evidence of people walking on your grave (much like the old idea that sneezing was a way of your soul trying to escape the body).

My 14 year old son came in the other night dressed as a female with make-up, a wig, a mini-skirt, in full womens dress. I am a very old fashioned, traditional person. I dont like girly boys or crossdressers. I want my son to be a masculine man. When he came in I shouted "what the hell do you think you are doing?" and he said it was girls night out at the club. I threatened to ground him for a year and he called me a close-minded redneck piece of sh*t that will never be worth anything. I gave him an old fashioned beating with my belt and it left a small mark on him. He called the police, and I was arrested that night, and my son said things like "stupid dumba$$ redneck is going to the cage with the other animals" all the way out the door. the police did nothing in response to my sons behavior. I am out of jail now, and there is no restraining order to my knowledge. what should I do? My son told me I will never change him. My wife(who I love dearly) and him currently live alone

I hate him I hate the life he gave me although my ego is so high that I don't give him credit. I know he hates me so I hate him back in return. Jesus didn't die for me he died for everyone else. Now see, I was meant for hell because Satan roamed into my room the other day, it was a black spirit, I know it had to be from satan, tempting me to believe him, that he was god, that God isnt holy, etc...

I just hate God it burns throguh me full of hate for him, I used to like him when I was a Christian and had the holy spirit but was like **** you and went my own ways.
