this doesn't make it necessarily divine. if you were on an archeological dig and found the holy grail along with evidence to definitively prove that it was in fact the holy grail (jesus' name was carved into the cup along with a note from the templars/crusaders verifying its authenticity and the exact history of the cup which made logical sense if put into modern historical timelines).

what would you do with it?

I think it would make an excellent shot glass!

I'm doing a lot of soul searching at the moment, I feel I would benefit from some spiritual insight... The trouble is, which path to choose? I really want to feel closer to something, I'm not conventually religious, so I do not want to follow that route. But I feel like I should be by the sea, I keep dreaming of being there (in with my nightmares) How do you know where your spiritual path lies? I feel very human and full of regrets right now..

If Mormons believe that the Bible is true. So long as its translated correctly. Because it has been altered several times. What makes The Book of Mormon any better. It has been changed several times as well.
According to the Mormon Church’s teaching manual, Gospel Principles, page 53,

Joseph Smith translated the Book of Mormon into English through the gift and power of God. He said that it is "the most correct of any book on earth, and the keystone of our religion, and a man would get nearer to God by abiding by its precepts, than by any other book" (History of the Church, 4:461).

Yet, the book which Joseph Smith declared was "the most correct of any book on earth" (History of the Church, vol. 4, p. 461) has been revised in over 3900 places. Most of these changes were made to correct embarrassing spelling and grammatical errors (this will be examined in more detail later in this article).

How many of today's feral thugs on the streets were sent to Sunday school and how many were taught (wrongly) by their atheist parents that Jesus' teachings don't matter?
I bet most of the feral kids never attended Sunday school or church in their lives.

I absolutley detest her. I find her money grubbing, lieing ways disgusting. She plays on peoples emotions and hearts for their money. She is the biggest con I have ever heard of. The sad gullible people she plays with need to wake up and see her for the absolute fake she is. If you disagree with me than you are wrong and blind.

my proof outweigs your proof:

1- sparticus' body was never found, likewise when judas turned him in and he was crucified his body disappeared, thus proving that sparticus had power to ressurect himself.

2- sparticus was a great leader, he rallied an army of slaves around him and then later used peacefull methods to accrue no less than 13 diciples (don't forget rufus).

3- he certainly had a grudge against the roman empire.

4- god came to me last night when comedy central was interrupted on tv and told me so.

If God has power over everything than why did he make us. Why couldn't he just Force us to obey him instead of leaving things to chance. Why didn't he just create us all one type of clear, focus, and rightious mind. Why would he create something that he knows he will burn later on. Isn't it just a waste of our and, more infantly, his time. Can't he find something better to do. If he just wanted people who love him and believe in him then he could alter mans's mind into thinking the right things. Does God know the Future, If so why did he even create us to go through wars, fightings, kids getting raped, etc... if he could just show his face for everyone to believe. Why were all the prophets human? why couldn't God send down an angel for us to believe in him more surely. Why did God let satan into the garden of Adam and Eve when he could just easily block his way or something.
Nothing makes sense anymore with all these messed up stories I don't know what to believe.

Words of wisdom from my 11 year old, but is he to young to realize it?

He was talking to his stuffed frog, and he said to it "Stop poking your owner in the eye." This is what immediately came to my heart.

How disobedient children disappoint their parents, yet we still love them they may still grieve us.

How GOD created us all for HIS pleasure, and how HE is our parent, though HE still loves us, we may greieve HIM.

Stop poking your creater in the eye.

I believe that GOD speaks to us even through our children's play.

I dont want any rude comments from other religions because I think we all have our different beliefs.

Anyways, can you actually float or levitate things? I just want to know because I am a beginner wiccan and I can't figure out what things are true or not. In some places, there are things that say yes, and other places that say no. I'm just confused! Is there any place or website I can go to to learn witchcraft the right way and the truthful way? I don't want anything false because I am a beginner.

Please, if you are a Christian or any other religion that thinks that people who use witchcraft should go to hell, please keep your comments to yourself. Thanks.

a bunch of their people who didn't particularly like blue started wearing red, but they called it "the reformed blue," because they wanted the benefits of organized religion w/o all the corny "love and stuff," do you think you'd be wise in pointing out the perversion and non-sensical nature of the "redamentalists"?

And if that riled up some of the "redamentalists", do you think that was a good sign that you were speaking the truth?

What caught your interest so to speak?
Mine is odd. I read something about a funeral right for the Vikings and felt this overwhelming need to find out more. Over time, and reading the answers of several of the Heathens here, I was told by a friend that Blood Calls. I haven't looked back.
