You say in a question that you do not like hallowowe'en because its pagan. You still celebrate Easter (Eostre) and Christmas (Yule) and they are both pagan. you say: Annoying children knock on old peoples hoiuses frightening them. That is pretty much done all year round in one way or another. You say: It's American not English. Hallowe'en is Europian, not American...Hallowe'en did not go to N/America until much later. And last but not least. You say: It's a money making excuse. I bet you shall out alot of money to the advertisers who cash in on those holidays etc.. Just thought you ought to know this....And a Happy Sam Hain (Hallowe'en) to you.

Do you think they might try and have a go at me for wearing something "offensive" or something? Only a few people saw it I think, but it IS bright pink so it's kinda noticable...
I'd prefer to not have to say "Actually I'm gay so it's ok" to my boss and give her that glazed look...

This is the celebration of the holy appearance of the Supreme Goddess (you know the consort of God) What are you doing for this day to get Her blessings?
No rude remarks or I will deffinately report your offensive behavior. No one will blaspheme the Supreme Goddess and get away with it. (NO ONE)

Hello, does anyone know a native american (or other ethinic group) myth that shows how that group had an environmental concern? Maybe a tale of somebody that chopped too many trees or something like that.

I searched the net but basically its myths about creating stuff out of nowere or unrelated teachings.... any clue?

I have asked for some views about no afterlife from atheists and have received many intelligent and thought-provoking answers. I would like to hear atheistical opinions on the following scientifically documented physical phenomenas. I don't offer this as proof of an afterlife, simply inquisitive to hear the atheistic point of view on such physical phenomenas. For the theists, many have told me they don't believe in ghosts, so would you comment, too? 1)A woman claims she sees the spirit of a little boy, who eventually bites her on the leg. A photo is taken and it is proved to be the bitemark of a human mouth, but not of her own children. 2) Family claims spirit of small girl in house causes scratches on the father, Discovery Ch. documents this on film as it happens, with several witnesses to the event. 3) Audio tape records voice in a graveyard, plainly audible and coherent, but could not have been made by any living human voice. I don't feel that magnetic resonance would explain these.

I dont' mean the breathing or posture Yoga. These are the processes how to love and serve God (also known as Krishna, Allah, Jehovah, Vishnu, Rama, etc.) with devotion. (recommended by Him)

As Islam cannot change:

Bukhari:V9B88N174 I heard the Prophet saying, ‘Islam cannot change!'

And as Muhammad (MHRIH) was the model for mortal behavior:

Qur'an 33:21 Verily in the Messenger of Allah you have a good example for him who looks unto Allah and the Last Day.
Ishaq:467 Allah addressed the believers and said, ‘In Allah's Apostle you have a fine example for anyone who hopes to be in the place where Allah is.'

BukhariV7B63N1891 Indeed in the Apostle of Allah you have a good example to follow.

Bukhari:V9B92N384 Allah's Apostle said, ‘Whoever obeys me will enter Paradise, and whoever disobeys me will not enter it.'

So therefore what was good in Muhammad’s (MHRIH) day, what the “prophet” (MHRIH) did, is good today – according to Islam – I’m curious…

What do you think of the fact that Muhammad (MHRIH) married a six year old girl, and slept with her when she was nine years old?

You know some people get that feeling and think it's Deja Vous. It's just a feeling like a spiritual hug. I don't know quite how to describe it. Used to get that feeling when I was just wondering if God was really there (before I got saved) ever had that feeling or is just me?

...than obviously being a non christian that would mean i'd be automatically in hell yes?
is there a way I can skip the judgement part, because that just seems very long considering the amount of people he has to go through judging and than theres the entire longness of being judged... is there any way I can skip it and just go straight to the pit?
(btw I know this sounds like a mick take but im genuinly interested)

Have any Christians told you to "accept Jesus and you will goto heaven" ?

If so, then know that their claim is a boastful statement based on arrogance and the belief that faith alone will save them.

When they say they are guaranteed Paradise by faith then they have negated the value of the Mercy of God by not acknowledging that the final decision rests upon GOD and he will judge based on HIS criterion which may include the fruits of faith.

Therefore, there is no guarantee for Paradise based on anyones faith alone and nobody can be proud of their status based on faith.

If anyone tells you that if you bring faith into your life you will be guaranteed Paradise then know that they are boasting about something that is not in their control.
