Above the planet, on a wing & a prayer
My grubby halo, a vapor trail in the empty air
Across the clouds I see my shadow fly, out of the corner of my watering eye
A dream unthreatened by the morning light
Could blow this soul through the roof of the night
There's no sensation to compare with this
Suspended animation, a state of bliss
Can't keep my mind from the circling sky
Tonguetied and twisted just an earthbound misfit, I

Is that the feeling you get from religion or drug use? Or both?

Trying to ease the guilt they feel? Trying to make themselves feel better?
I found out from my best friend whom I've been friends with all my life that 8 people are searching for me on reunion.com. One person even called everywhere, including my best friend and one of my aunts searching for me. The person who called made a snide remark to my best friend when my father and grandmother died six days apart over six years ago. Then I ran into them 5 years ago and they just ignored me. It has been over six years since all this happened. When I moved a year ago I made sure nobody but my best friend would find me and she could warn me about intrusions. What is it with this person and the other people who are searching for me? Why the heck do they care now? Do they really need to ease their guilt?

My father and I make up words that sound vaguely Italian, or vaguely Spanish, to describe things. An **** is a "goolo." If it's cold outside, it's "cooleo."
We can string lots of these made-up words into sentences, and it's almost like a secret language.
We've been doing this for years...people must wonder what language we're speaking!
Does anyone else do this?

I am referring to their concepts of exclusivity; that one must follow their beliefs in order to avoid eternal torment. This question isn't about the Biblical/Koran basis for these beliefs, rather it's about how they deal with this fact.

Believing that everyone else is going to Hell essentially dehumanizes those who practice other religions. It is linked to a lack of tolerance. There are a good amount of commonalities between the religions. They all encourage people to be good people.

Who cares whether a god puts his pants on left leg first or right leg first? These are silly details we are argue over. Why can't we focus on the common goals rather than the details?

upon others so hard? NOT all of you do of course so this is only to the extremist out there who do not seem to respect that we are in a country where we all have a choice and each persons choice should be respected no matter what. Most non Christians do not bash you, except again extremist. why not let it drop both sides? No one is gonna change any ones minds so why bother? Allow everyone to believe what they want and respect it as I do.

A person is my friend no matter what their faith is as long as they are a good person or friend. Anything is is prejudice. I for one am not.

I am not atheist either nor a Christian. How can you be so sure you are right and the Muslims wrong or the Buddhists wrong? No one can know for sure so we should all respect one another's rights to choose our own beliefs.

So go ahead and start with the bashing but it is how I feel about many in this section lately. this silly battle needs to end!

Albert Einstein was the most intelligent person of our time.

"Through the reading of popular scientific books I soon reached the conviction that much in the stories of the Bible could not be true. The consequence was a positively fanatic orgy of freethinking coupled with the impression that youth is intentionally being deceived by the state through lies; it was a crushing impression. Mistrust of every kind of authority grew out of this experience, a skeptical attitude toward the convictions that were alive in any specific social environment - an attitude that has never again left me, even though, later on, it has been tempered by a better insight into the causal connections. "

I'm not asking what the requirements for going to either hell or heaven are. I'm not asking who your god says will go to hell.

I'm asking if YOU, as an individual, feel that some people DESERVE that punishment.

8For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

9Not of works, lest any man should boast.

10For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
