I believe in the teachings of Jesus, yet I also believe that the teachings of Buddah, Allah, etc...are also important. I believe that God wouldn't send His people that he created into eternal suffering just because they screwed up or didn't accept Him in this life. I don't believe that anyone goes to Hell. I'm not sure if this goes against the Bible's teachings or if this even ties into a certian religion. Is this considered Christian Universalism?

Among the survivors is a future mass murderer. Among the dead is a biologist that would have cured a cancer, saving the lives of millions.

Is this scenario impossible? Why?
If it is possible, explain how God could have let this happen?

Many have cited this year as significant in their "Endtimes" charts, as well as upcoming 2012.
We're not there yet. So what is going on?

Not things that go outside of scripture like celibacy for priests or purgatory. They don't directly go against anything in the Bible. They're just extras added on later. I'm looking for things that are undeniably against the teachings pf the Bible.

Just went to an engagement party. The relatives did not introduce my mom. My mom was adopted. They make me sick.
The older relatives would not do something like this.
It was the younger ones. The groom to be manages mutal funds.
And the bride to be works in his same office.
Do they do this on purpose?
The groom ignored me at the party.
There is a catch. My paintings have been exhibited around the world. This bride and groom are just out of college, up and coming and just working at the local financial firm.
I am pissed though. It is the same rudeness. The bride has seen us for the past 28 years and we were not even introduced. So what are we? Invisible?

Ok so i needed a hair product that I can only find at Sally's Beauty Supply. I went to Sally's in a rush knowing that they close at 6 on Sundays. I got there at 5:45 and there were still people in the store. I try to get in to the door and one of the sales girls says to me "We are closed." I say "Your sign says you close at 6 and it's a quater till". She then goes on to say that they have several people (4 people) in line to pay for items. At that point I left. I am not going to argue to get into a store. I will very gladly take my money elsewhere. Was I wrong for coming at that time. I could understand if I came at 5:57 but it was 5:45. Was I being unreasonable??

I was wondering, if you are not Catholic, and you are not seeking or wanting to convert, and you are of another faith, is it ok to visit a Catholic church and just "observe" a service? Just out of curiosity about their ways?

How many went through the Christian "motions" to appease parents and/or others during their younger years or during their first walks upon the Pagan Path(s) because they were unsure of how they would be accepted (or not)?

i have a question for atheists and those who believe in evolution. well if evolution did happen in fact.. then shouldnt it still be happening? why would it stop? if you believe that is how we got here then it should still be a continuing process, because there are still apes and monkeys that live out there. in a few years will they be turning into humans? and will my fish slowly warp into a new creature and end up being human at some point? because if everything evolved it should still be evolving yes? serious answers please i asked myself this today after my husband had a conversation with an atheist at his job. what do you think?
