Isn't this weird?! Christians believe God to be a spirit or an essence. They say that Jesus was God Incarnate; yet when they draw God, they depict him as an old man with a long white beard; someone completely different form the young brown-bearded Jesus!!!? How come?? If you want to Incarnate God, then draw him as Jesus; not as an old man. Otherwise this means you believe in more than one God Incarnate; thus more than one God!!!

You can see the old guy in many drawings like the Vatican, William Blake's paintings, other works of art and other Catholic and Protestant churches,...etc

they seem to think that being emotional will reveal the true meanings of the words in the Bible, but in truth being emotional hinders people to really understand anything.

they say, "I FEEL the Holy Spirit is guiding me" yada, yada, yada...

isn't that an example of being emotional?

Every single day we must make choices bettween right and wrong. We must, therefore, judge which choice is right and which choice is wrong. We also must judge situations - whether they are good or bad. We must judge doctrine, whether it be of Christ or not. Also, we must judge if people are going to hurt us or not so as to avoid them.

When the scriptures speak of not judging, generally it refers to a final judgment - we do not have the authority to make those kind of judgments. We must judge bettween good and evil all the time though.

So...do you judge? (...or do you even consider what was mentioned above "judgment"?)

Surely it was not Jesus, he was not rasied up from Paran, and didn't have 10,000 saints beside him.

I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.

I'm waking up at the start of the end of the world,
but its feeling just like every other morning before,
now i wonder what my life is going to mean if it's gone,
the cars are moving like a half a mile an hour if that
and I started staring at the passengers who're waving goodbye
can you tell me what was ever really special about me all this time?

Christians are told to pray for their enemies, for those who persecute them, for those who slander them (for instance, Matthew 5:44 and Romans 12:14). There are examples, most notably Jesus on the cross (Lk 23:34) and Stephen (Acts 7:60). This is connected with forgiving but isn't identical to it I don't think. But this is all pretty general and maybe doesn't seem so clear in actual detailed circumstances. At least there are many times it's not clear to me.

By "guideline" I mean something like this: "Based on the New Testament, Christians should not pray to God asking Him to send to hell those who have harmed or insulted or persecuted them." That is, a guideline is a general statement of something that is or is not a good words to pray, based on the New Testament. And one ought to connect it to specific verses or examples from the New Testament.

Sample prayers of this kind would be cool. For all I know there is a web site or book filled with prayers of this kind.

Should I believe that I can live forever by embracing a bunch of bonze age myths?

Or

That I have fairy wings and can fly around the lab?
WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

And…

Will either belief have any bearing at all on reality?

Seax wica is a tradition of wicca that uses Saxon Magic (sort of) Seax wicans do Not claim to be reconstructing the Anglo Saxon Heathen faith.

My question is if the seax wicans are using Saxon "Magic" why don't they use Mjolnir (a hammer that represents the Hammer of Thor. or in this case Thunor)
Instead of that they use a Seax (Athame) which i have not found any anglo-saxon heathens using.

Why is this?
