Last night I fell asleep. In my dream I was also asleep, I kept on hearing my alarm, radio, and tv all at the same time. I had turned everything off before I went to sleep. So i didnt know how that was happening. I was laying down with my eyes closed in my dream and then I heard steps...like someone dragging their feel while they walk. I was scare and didnt know what to make of it. I opened my eyes but did not turn my head. I looked to the side and saw like figure on my left side of the bed. It was a girl about 10 years of age or less she had long hair and two half ponytails with bangs. Se look transparent and I could only see half of her body the rest was not visible. She noticed I was watching her, an she launched her self at me. I was terrified. I felt so heavy I could not move and I cold not speak. I started to pray and pray, My lil daughter was beside me. She had a fever that night, and I told my self I needed to get that spirit off me for her. I pushed her off me and I woke up.

If not, then why does "God exists but I don't believe it" sound contradictory?

So when Jesus said:
"If you have faith, and doubt not, if you shall say unto this mountain, 'Be taken up, and be cast into the sea,' it shall be done."

He really meant:
"Faith is really powerful. But your faith alone in't really going to move any mountain. If God also wanted that mountain moved at the same time you told it to move, it will happen. But God is only really concerned with spiritual mountains, so by mountains, I mean difficult internal obsticles and still only if God wills it."

Is this right?

I can't understand why escorts are legal, but prostitutes aren't? I really don't see anything wrong with them, we know a lot of normal" people live a real promiscuous life w/out being prostitues, the only difference is they get paid, which seems smarter, than giving it up free.

Christians know what they believe and don't allow anything else (just "religious" stuff, nothing scientific) into their thought process. Atheists know what they believe, and don't let anything else (just scientific stuff, but nothing "religious") into their thought process either. stop calling us close-minded just because we don't believe like you. because using that logic, your also close-minded because you don't belive like us.

I always hear them say that they know god loves them, or that they know the bible is right, or they know that they found jesus, etc. This is ridiculous. I want hard evidence. I know my fiance loves me because she has confronted me and told me so. I know my car works because I drive it to work.

The spiritual explanation is useless. These christians constantly say that they know this and that. Honestly, how do you know? Had God personally gotten in your face and said that he loves you? Has jesus showed up on your doorstep and told you that he died for your sins?

And let's not forget the bible. If it was so authoritive and factual, why isn't non fiction stamped on it's spine? How can you say that it is a factual book? I am being serious. I actually want to know what makes you people so set on believing these things. This is part of the reason why I am an atheist. No one can give me any proof that anything about religion is right.

God is a God of Hope!
When we put our hopes in Him, we can see Him working. It says in the bible that He will give us the desires of our heart! How Awesome and Amazing is that?! We cannot hang our hopes on money or another person or even earthly opportunities. We will never be satisfied. There will always be that empty chamber in our heart that needs to be filled. And there are so many people out there that feel that emptiness and they do not even know what it is. Little do they realize it is because they have been hanging there hopes on earthly things instead of our Heavenly Father.It is so easy to see good things that are happening in our lives and bypass God and look to other things. many people stop and forget to thank God. They do not put their hopes in Him and trust that God is in control and He knows what He is doing.
The bible says that God made this earth and everything in it. It also says that we are His highest creation on this earth. We are His masterpiece!

Any one or anything that wanted one must surely be very bad and evil. We can all agree on that surely?

Everything that's happening right now, has happened before and will happen in the future is the decision of God. Man brings his own fortune or his own disaster by his deeds, but behind every tragedies there is much to learn.

So, if you had the chance, a chance you are not sure is accepted by God as the right choice, would you interfere in your future or mingle with your past?

hello all! i was wondering how you get your children being interested in your religion. from which age do you start? and what do you do when they are not interested?

and all those who symbolize a religion by wearing certain things,do you ask your children if they want to wear it?

im just curious before people start having a go!
