Christians are you suprised Jews know Hebrew and Armaeic (sometimes) and read the bible in its original form and insist they know what it is talking about? Such as their insistence that in their book of Isaiah it does not say Virgin but young lady and was not referring to the Messiah?

weigh you down...
They say that "still waters run deep" and I have been practicing getting quiet and just allowing Spirit to enter in,
morning and night.
Trying to practice doing it in the middle of my day when I'm caught up in the whirlwind. Just taking a moment and trying to reflect and remember who is really running the show and to stay out of His way.
Fixating on something that I am grateful about has been helping with it. Ok, I know enough, here's my question...
What do YOU do, to stay centered and focused on your particular path?
I'm sure we all have our moments where we lose sight of it but what do YOU do to bring YOU back?
Apologies for such a long question maybe someday I'll stop procrastinating and write a "real" book. lol
Blessings
In Spirit

should we even be allowed to say such words as love, truth, kindness, understanding, friendship.

Since these are all christian ideals, then we non-christians OBVIOUSLY dont know what these things mean.

Also, we shouldnt be allowed to get married unless we are christian either, since its a union recognized by god himself, and we are not worth of him since we dont believe in the christian god, so obviously we shouldnt be allowed to get married either.

How about kids, since we are non-christian, we might taint their minds with filth, so we should all be steralized so we cant breed.

Since non-christians are sooo bad, we lie, cheat, steal, kill, have pre-marital sex, are gay, are just abominations to god, we just shouldnt have any rights at all should we?

Just curious. Since you deny homosexuals so many rights, and look at them as less than human, whos to say you wont take away the rights of all non-christians, where does the line get drawn? Who is worthy, who isnt?

"In (the) beginning the Word was, and the Word was with God, and the Word was a god."

For support of this , WTS turned to the so-called "expertise" of a known spirit-medium. His name was Johannes Greber. He was a defrocked Catholic Priest who received his so-called "translation" of the bible through spiritistic means, usually in trances. The Watchtower Society exposed him in the February 15th, l956 Watchtower, warning that his sources were demonic. We couldn't agree with them more!

However, in 1961, just five years later, they were singing his praises and quoting him as an authority for their New World Translation, since he was a supporter of their doctrine on the person of Jesus Christ, and all three sources, Greber, the demons, and the Watchtower Society all agreed that Jesus was merely "a god".

While knowingly agreeing with and quoting a spirit medium, they nevertheless spoke out against spiritistic practices.

I have seen man intelligent and brilliant souls. They talk with lots of wisdom. However because of their over confidence, they discuss serious subjects based on some assumptions or little knowledge they posses.

There are some serious subjects in life, where it needs lots of reading and understanding before we conclude and lecture.

I would suggest these special people to learn and talk which shall contribute to society’s growth.

Once they start assuming and expressing they are actually tampering the truth.

With the exception of a lack of ocular melanin and melanin in the hair what features are rightly attributed to caucasians alone.

I am asking about frame of reference, because when I see a person with, for example, then lips or an equine nose. Those are not, in my opinion, "caucasian features." They are thin lips and an equine nose.

It occurs to me that when morality is being discussed, the very fact that homosexuality is even mentioned is indicative of a problem with our definition of morality.

When morality and sex between two consenting adults have anything to do with each other, it's time for us to take a step back and re-examine what morality means to us.

The point is, homophobia is a far greater evil than homosexuality, your thoughts?

And also, on average, how valuable would such a gift be to that person.....who may or may not have an interest in social/community work? So can one take a chance with such a gift? It would look like this was more a gift for "us" rather than "them"?

Your thoughts?

I don't believe in power of the pope. I think he is the CEO of Roman Catholicism and that's it. I don't think Mary was a virgin and I think Christ's miracles were symbolic more than literal. I do however believe that He is our savior. Which faith do I most identify with in your opinion?

There are many youngsters don't want to answer some of the subjects in the name of religion and ethnic group.

When you are born in this world and if you want to gain wisdom, you should not restrict yourself on any subject.

You should have that clarity in your mind to accept all information. Whether you want to believe it or not, whether you want to agree to it or not, but why know about it.

I feel bad / sad and worried when some of my fans don’t answer questions related to other religions.

Once all the youngsters understand the wisdom of life and common essence of all religions, they will be able to carry forward the future generation to a peaceful world. It is these people who can bring the unity in the world.

It is these youngsters who can eliminate the hatred among people based on religious indifferences.

I am not asking them to follow any other religion. I am not trying to impose my religion on others.

“Thus saith the Lord, “Verily those who are patient in adversity and forgive wrongs, are doers of excellence”

This means that God say that those who are truly patient in hardship and forgive mistakes are people who do good.

“Do you love your creator? Love your fellow-beings first”

This means that if you love god then you must love all other living things first.

“Shall I not inform you of a better act that fasting, alms and prayers? Making peace between on another: enmity and malice tear up heavenly rewards by the roots.

This means that although praying and fasting are good, peace making and being peace loving are better. Hate and spite destroy any good completely.
