Society & Culture - 22 November 2007

My boyfriend is Christian and his ex-fiance is Buddhist who may be looking to convert religions. I'm not sure if that is her true intention or if she is trying to get closer to my now boyfriend. Because of schedules it is hard for me to attend the social bible group. She showed up last week at the church when I was sick and he invited her to his social bible group which she showed up for. Unfortunately he didn't tell me about this for he thought I'd react in a way he seems trivial for he states that he has been praying for her and he is so happy she's discovering a new religion.
For their groups, they usually all go out for dinner first or some social activity and then a bible study. He had picked her up for all of this and thought it was trivial to tell me for she only needed a ride. Next week's bible study will be at her house. Why do I feel so jealous about all of this? Should this be trivial if I was looking at it thru a Christian's eyes?

1.) Do you believe their is no proof or lack of it?
2.) Have you ever read the Qur'an and Bible and then made up you're mind?
3.) Have you ever went to a Mosque or church and ask and talk to the preists/people?
4.)Have you ever done extensive research before making up you're mind

Saying you turn atheist because "Africa is starving" isn't going to cut it. It's not really valid, and if you ever wondered the Qur'an and maybe the bible has the answers.

In the UK many people who are elderly and possibly to old or ill to look after themselves go in many cases to care homes or nursing homes. Yet here in Spain it is the duty of the family to look after and care for their elderly loved ones. If the UK adopted the Spanish system would it just be looked on as government cuts, or should families bear that responsibility.

Who decided that the pope is the head of the church? When the bible states very clearly that Christ is the head of the church.

...and get in the way of everyone else getting on and off the bus/train, even when there are lots of seats free?

I'd understand if they're only on for a short while (people who hop on buses for to get just to the next stop should really think about walking - but that's a different question), but most seem to just prefer to hog the the place and be absolutely thick skinned when people give them the evil eye.

Is it hard to imagine that 250 or maybe 500 years from now, if the organized christan religion still exists, that it will just be "common knowledge" that Jesus Christ was married to Mary Magdalene and they had a child...and there is a bloodline from Jesus?

WIth the evolution of religion, there's got to be change in some dogma to reflect the changing views of the people who follow that particular religious belief system. Is it so hard to imagine that something like that...having been introduced within the last 20 or 30 years, will eventually be accepted as common knowledge in the future???

Just curious as to your thoughts on this....
