Whenever I hear a song from the 90's, it brings back so many great memories. I wish I could go back!

We had this great praise and worship session at church. It was upbeat and everyone was singing and clapping, and then the church went dead during the pastor's sermon. He went into sounding like he was scolding the audience. He was like 'We shouldn't be worried about what we look like. We NEED to be worried about how we're doing in the presence of God." then he went into "some of us our fat. we need to stop eating gluttonously. it's a sin' and all the stuff about 'how the women need to stop dressing scantily. Wearing high skirts is unacceptable and low cut shirts is against god." 'some of us think its ok to look at pornogrophy. Enough with adulterers and homosexuals." There wasn't one clap during his sermon and the church went dead. Why do some pastors have to ruin the mood with that garbage.

you can say for certain that if you were to die tonight, that you would go to Heaven?
What makes you so sure you will go to Heaven..What have you done in your life that makes it a life God would approve of?

I know on here you are often told you are not Christians. So let me turn it around a bit. What do you think about other Christians? For instance I happen to be a Pentecostal Christian. Or Baptists. We reject Joseph Smith and the book of mormon. Do you believe we are Christians? Do you think we have a chance at the celestial part of Heaven?

I asked a question previously about christian and why they are so happy. I see how christians are different and wanted to feel their joy. I got some good answers, but I tried to contact some who gave good answers for more information and could not get a reply from them but once.

So I will ask here.
What set your god apart from other gods?
What is work of your god?
Why should I believe in your god?
You cannot see your god. Why do you still believe in him?
Pray? Hmm? Your god does not reply. Why pray then?
Even know there is no evidence your god exist, why still believe your god exist? You have no reply, cannot see him, cannot hear him. Why belive?

Very very very very confused?

Do not say go to church because I cannot, and do not say read your bible because I have none. The bible i looks up online make absolutely no sence. They are fairy tales. Make-believe. Why do you belive what it says?

I went to the club last night and their was the guy you buy tickets from to get in was showing interest. Well idk, maybe I am wrong. But he hands me my cash back and I kind of wait there looking forward, waiting for something to happen. You know like a 'you may go in now' or handing me whatever ticket I need to get in. I have never been there before. After like ten seconds I look up and the guy is looking at me. Then we're just kind of staring at each other. I'm like 'what are you looking... Ohhhhhh!" Anyway, I say 'can I go in now?' and he goes, 'yea!" lol! Then on my way out, I look at him and he's looking at me, but he's kind of holding the eye contact again. I ofcourse am too because I think he's cute. It last my entire way out and there are alot of other strangers walking out to. I then turn my head on my way out, and the guy is still looking at me and we hold eye contact again. I turn around and go ask for his number, he says in a sweet way, "I have boyfriend. And he works here

I believe there is a god, but i dont agree with the views of any religions i have been aware of, how do i choose a religion if every other religion hates me for my beliefs.
God is in everything, and everywhere.
Churches are controlled by governments and god doesnt want you to be controlled by false authority.
I dont believe in jesus being the dude we all have to "accept in our hearts" sure he did some cool **** but how does what he did effect me? It doesnt, some dude got murdered on a cross by his kin. Jesus was jewish, he wasnt christians, why do you base your religion around that..

I may be bhuddist, im not sure, Why do the christians hate on bhudda when he is the brother of jesus?

Think about this before you answer i dont want to see you criticizing me for my beliefs.

How come people bash Christians. Don't get me wrong there are a lot of judgemental ones out there and that is not a way to be. You very rarely hear people slandering Hinduism, Buddism, Islam, and etc. How come the focus is on Christianity. It is because God just might be convicting your heart(this is a big possibility) and you have to shoot it down with negativity before it spreads and you REALIZE there is truly a Jesus Christ that died not just for me, but YOU, and He loves YOU just as much. Just wondering?

...that God spoke to them, telling them to help me find the Lord.

So: I want to know, not as a joke, but honestly; why doesn't God tell me himself??

When one feels that they no longer feels that they should be a member of a specific church how does one go about leaving politely, especially if they have been an active participant?

Every nice and moral passage is always in contect like these ones:
Trust in the Lord and do good...Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart.
Psalm 37:3,4

Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. The Lord, the Lord is my strength and my song; He has become my salvation. With joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation.
Isaiah 12:2,3

When an atheist puts down a bad passage it must always be out of context like these:

(Deuteronomy 22:28-29 NLT)
If a man is caught in the act of raping a young woman who is not engaged, he must pay fifty pieces of silver to her father. Then he must marry the young woman because he violated her, and he will never be allowed to divorce her.

Whoever sacrifices to any god, except the Lord alone, shall be doomed. (Exodus 22:19 NAB)

Here's the link: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070930/ap_on_el_pr/mccain_faith

McCain does not rule out the value of having a person of a different faith but says (effectively) that, given the choice between two otherwise equivalent candidates, he would choose the Christian over a non-Christian.

He calls it ""an important part of our qualifications to lead."

Do you agree?

I do not. I think it should not enter into the election process. The Constitution explicitly states that there shall be no religious test for the presidency. This, of course, will not stop many from affirming their beliefs through the election process (and maybe it shouldn't) but I for one will not elect someone solely for their religious beliefs.

Then again, I'm an agnostic... :D
