Is it because the meat and dairy industries have brain washed them into believing meat, cheese and milk is good for them?
Fast food, cars and Walmart?
Why does every second commercial have the phrase "Ask your Doctor?" in it...Is there any corrolation. Does the Drug, Meat and Dairy business have one goal in common that the average American is too blind to see? Why is the US dollar valued so low? Why all the mortgage defaults? The US is getting sick and weak. Solution, don't eat meat?
Any comments?

PLEASE TRANSLATE THE FOLLOWING:

"Excuse me, but, where are we going to have the party?"

"I don’t know. Should we have it at some-body’s house, or go to a restaurant?"

"I’d like to go to a fancy restaurant, like Ristorante Luigi. Two weeks ago I went there with my family, we had a lovely time. There was classical music in the background and the atmosphere was very sophisticated."

"I don’t think we should go to a fancy restaurant. We should have the party at Pizza Hut. They have a delicious all-you-can-eat buffet there. It would be a lot more fun."

"Why do we have to go to a restaurant? Can’t we go to somebody’s house for the party? _______ has a pool at his house. That would be more fun than sitting in a restaurant."

"A pool-party would be nice, but that isn’t really appropriate for celebrating Vigilia di Natale. We want a comfortable place where we can have fun, relax and celebrate."

"Where are we going to find a place like that?"

If it`s true well then that cancels out any hope in an afterlife. Because an organism can not be both dead and alive. Right? What would you call that.....Half-Life? lol

If it`s false well then organisms never die. Which seems pretty odd because in real life organisms die all the time.

Whether it is true or false there is no hope for an afterlife. Agree?

I have not known in the past and cared little about this. But He changed my life so much.
It is written that Jesus came from heaven and taught many things to live as God wants us to John3. He still can teach today if we are willing to LISTEN.

Take the Christian right in the US. They voted in Bush twice on the back of a promise to protect the unborn child, not allow stem cell research etc. Yet they allow him to send troops to other lands who cause death and suffering to hundreds of thousands of innocent men, women and children.

Are they happy that they traded foreign lives for the lives of unborn children? Are they happy that they traded living children's lives for the unborn? Are they happy to play God on earth and force their beliefs on non-christians?

Most religions, either directly or indirectly, state that since humans are a part of the universe... they can 'understand' or 'be' a part of the universe.... or 'know' some infinite aspect of the universe by an internal quest of oneself.

Do you think this is possible?

I mean if God is real I don't need faith or belief. I know he exists. Therefore I simply need to follow the rules and huppla I get to heaven.

I kind of makes faith irrelevant in religion when God is a fact.

I don't need faith in Mathematics when I add 1+1 because I know the answer is only two.

I don't need faith in physics or chemistry because I know when I plug in the variables then the answer will be the same.

Religion relies on faith but so many religious people simply don't realise that they don't need it when they talk of how God is real and the proof is in the Bible.

I read that Jesus descended into hell before ascending to Heaven.
It was in a bulletin I was given.

You seem very concerned about other people and their beliefs, but....

Do you know yourself?

All the great philosophers say this is vital toward all understanding (and since your mind creates everything about you... who will disagree ;-)

So, can you honestly say that you know yourself?
