My Grandmother told me, "Boy you to find Jesus." Sadly to say I looked him up in the phone book to no avail. Well I thought Y/A might be a good place since there is allot of people on here. Anybody seen God? No?
What is that you say? I have to find him in my heart? Well then am I God? No?

Damn now I`m just confused!

I have a friend who told me that whenever she closes her eyes to sleep, she feels this awkward feeling... She says it's like something is pressing on her. She doesn't know if it's a dream or is this something that is concerned with other creatures' world??? Sort of like that... Is it incubus?
Thank you!

Is it a sin to disagree with some of the things god has done?

I personally think it was shady of his behalf to not warn adam and eve about a snake that would try to tempt them. I think its wrong he tried to handicap them(keep them ignorant about right and wrong). Not to mention I thought it was wrong of him to send Jesus to sacrifice himself simply because nobody believed in god. That's ignoring how he had to empregnate Mary who already had a boyfriend instead of somebody else. And also lets not forget all the innocent animals that died during the flood.

So if I believed all of that stuff happened but I thought it was wrong, then am I gonna go to hell for that? Or do I also have to think what he did was right?

I was just wondering what I could use as an excuse when people ask me why I'm not wearing shoes and only socks when I go places. Any ideas on what I could say to people who ask about it?

1. I hope that one day I can trust my husband again.
2. I hope that one day I can have a child (I just want one).
3. I hope that one day I don't have to live paycheck to paycheck anymore.
4. I hope that one day I will be where I need to be on a religious level.
5. I hope that one day I can get back to the size I was when I graduated from highschool (right now I'm a 14/16 and then I was a 7/9).

Those are the most important things for me.

I just asked a question concerning God and faith. I asked must one have faith to believe in God. Overwhelmegly theist and Atheist alike said Yes, of course, and duh.

And I agree. Which brings me to my next question. Is faith the result of circular reasoning. If I handed you an essay and the first line said "My essay is without error because I say so in my essay." Would you believe me? Maybe....Maybe not. But if you do it is because of faith.

Taking faith from a theist is to totally shatter his belief in God. You can`t have one without the other. But I think there`s more to this story. Theist I have uncovered a truth, a mysterious secret in the Cosmos. You belief/faith in God comes from circular reasoning..... Agree?

They should really learn for themselves as opposed to being followers.. they follow blindly and easily forget that they have killed more people in the name of God than any other religion. Why do they think that learning for yourself is wrong? Science for example, merely learning what's what and why.. why is that negative? I understand that they are getting better and are encouraged (by their leader) to read the Bible for themselves.. but if the Bible has sooo many contradictions and has been revised so many times, why do they insist that's a guide as opposed to a mere book of stories with false morals written and revised by the hands of so many people?

I have had a string of rather bad luck. Somehow I wonder if I'm putting out some negative energy or somehow drawing it to me.

Although it's sort of new age-y, I'm wondering what I can do to "clear my karma" and end this run of bad luck and draw some good luck to me--either via lucky charms or other sources of positive energy.

(Yes, I'm a superstitious person :)

I'm 16 and am a junior in high school. I take almost all AP/honors classes, do ballet, and have a part time job. I'm so stressed by all of this that I don't know what to do! I just feel like crying. Why does God allow me to feel so horrible?

Why is it that every time a wiccan or witch gets on here and asks a question a christian or some other religious bible fanatic gets on here and preaches to them for believing the way we do. The choice is made people. We choose who we are and what we believe. You can't change us just because you believe in a different thing. I like being a witch and believe in magick and I don't appreciate it when all my fellow believers out there get ragged on when they ask questions and get preached at. Get over your religious stuff and leave us to what we believe. It's not satanic and it's actually really good for us. To each his own.

The conversation I had with my professor and some peers led to the statment"You should never hit a girl under any cercomstances. I said that I would if I had to defend myself and the whole class got mad. So, is it reakky not ok to defend yourself against a girl if it means striking her?
