All religions have gone from love to power, money, and control. But we continue to support them.

Has your church every given you a world view test? I am surprised by the questions that are used to determine this. Do you feel these questions are central to your beliefs? Are these the items that separate you from others? If you took this test did it reveal what you thought? For non-christians are you surprised by the questions asked?

Sorry, so many questions.

Isn't it OK for them to just believe that these things are wrong and leave it at that? Why must they be so vocal about their beliefs and try to legislate them into the public square?

It must be true because everybody just knows it's true. How can the whole world be wrong?"
"The Bible is true because it is the word of God."
"It's true because it is the most perfect moral guide ever produced. Nothing written by humans approaches its perfection."
"Its writings span 1,500 years, written by 40 authors, and there are no errors, contradictions or difficulties. No book written by mere humans could be so flawless."

It seems to me that most non-Catholics think it is all about ritual and legalism*, but upon my cursory study of it, I do not think so. I find more freedom and yet more responsibility under (my rudiment understanding of) Catholic's idea of grace. Am I wrong?

*that's not to say I believe in it, I do not.

Why do people confuse God with Science!
When God Created the universe, he created science at the same time, which is the explanation of all the living things! Why do people like to compare Science and spiritual things, like if its the only answer for everything!

No?

Then why do you so readily accept that a God exists? Are you making your very own decision, or are you perhaps just taking what you've read or what some other human being has told you to be the absolute (God's honest) truth?

and what is the difference between priests and reverends, and can they have sex?

2007-11-28 02:23:38 · 17 answers · asked by Anonymous in Religion & Spirituality

maybe the children named the teddy bear after mohammed because they rvered it. So the muslims should be glad that the first thing the children thought of when they seen something they liked was mohammed. But they are so thick and vain. They just want to bully people who are weaker than them. But their time will come. The world will not stand up for all this bullsh!t. Does anyone else agree with me.

When asking a question yesterday re science becoming so advanced one day that we will be able to reach the supernatural world, several people said it was not possible because the natural world and the supernatural world were completly different things. What is the difference and why will humans never be able to reach the supernatural through science?

I'm so glad to live in a country where we can worship our lord (or lords) as we please and when something goes bad, you have GOD to tell it all too! That just makes me feel good - to know that there are other people in this sinful world who feel as emotionally touched as I do as our GOD makes us feel special in our own unique way! GOD BLESS YOU ALL!!!
