I was studying him for school and I was wondering if anyone has an opinion on why Odysseus seems to be given good life after he gets home to Ithaca. Most Greek heroes hardships continue, or they go crazy, or their wives kill them, or some other bad thing happens to them and they lose everything. Odysseus seems to be the only one who is allowed to get through his adventures more or less unscathed and is able to continue living happily for a long time. Are we supposed to see him as better than other heroes or is his just a different kind of story?

What do you think a transitional species between, say, a bird and a sea creature would look like? You know, a species of bird "on its way" to becoming an ocean-dwelling creature, like whales?

Do you think it would look anything like a penguin?

I'm a Christian, and I fear it, but only as fear of the unknown, not that I don't know what will happen, but what it will feel like for my spirit to disconnect with my body and ascend.

Does the way atheists believe there is nothing after death give them the same comfort, as they believe will feel nothing?

Before answering “all of the above” haphazardly, would you lend me your ear?

Now that we live in a pluralistic society, in which truth is considered subjective and morality is relative, your “thoughts”, “feelings”, and “beliefs” have become meaningless.

More than meaningless: in a very subtle way, by saying that you “think”, “feel”, or “believe” something to be true you are validating other religions as true (Jesus is not the only way to Heaven) and Christianity as potentially false (Jesus is not Lord).

Explanation:
Which do you say:
1) “I think 2+2 is 4”
2) “I feel that 2+2 is 4”
3) “I believe that 2+2 is 4”
Or do you say:
4) “2+2 is 4”

Nowadays, the first 3 imply doubt, and subtly (or not so subtly) suggest that you *might* be wrong.

It used to be that saying “I believe that Jesus Christ is Lord” meant something, and although you may mean “Jesus Christ is Lord” – our society hears: “It is OK for you not to believe this, but I believe this.”

Furthermore, if you don’t know it to be true, but only “believe” it to be true - such “belief” is not saving faith, and you stand on extremely thin and dangerous ice. In fact, such “belief” is worse than the dead faith (without works) that James speaks about. For the demons more than “believe” that God exists, they “know” it. They just don’t trust in Him and His Son Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior (with living faith that produces good works).

Eternal life is not to think, feel, or believe in the only true God, and Jesus Christ.
Eternal life is to know the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom He has sent. (John 17:3)

So in light of this, my original question:
Do you think, feel, believe, or know that the gospel of the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ is true?

watch the Narnia movie or let them read the Narnia Books? Just curious. There seems to be many questions about this Golden Compass movie and Christians not wanting to let their children see it, just wondering what happens on the flip side of the movies?

This is an press release put put by the Church of JESUS CHRIST of Latter-day Saints, found on the church's official web site, about the church's stand on political NEUTRALITY. It does not specifically talk about Mitt Romney, but it does talk of ALL the politicians and elected officials who happen to be LDS/Mormon.

and feel an overwhelming sense of peacefulness, do you believe that they're actually getting a glimpse into the afterlife, or that it's a combination of the brain being evolved enough to spontaneously release endorphins while its receptors are mis-firing or "short-circuiting."
