21 "It was also said, 'Whoever divorces his wife must give her a bill of divorce.' But I say to you, whoever divorces his wife (unless the marriage is unlawful) causes her to commit adultery, and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.

I have heard some say it is a world religion. If it is a world religion it should let people convert.

I have a very hard time with church. People are so phony most of the time. Also, I feel like some preachers are out to give people an emotional high instead of really teaching the Word of God, and when people come off of that emotional high, they hit low and are resentful. Do you think that Christians who don't attend church regularly are "un-Christian"?

Did God plan for people to go to hell? And did he also plan for some babies to die right after they are born?
If he did not plan out our lives, does he not know all? I have been told that God is TOTALLY omniscient

the last magdalene asylum closed on september 26th 1996.

the women who were 'rescued' by the magdalene movement were forced to do arduous physical labour, for which they were usually unwaged. (the roman catholic church in ireland charged heavily for their services). they were forced to call the staff of the institutions 'mother' (while they in turn were called 'child'), and were regularly beaten at least down to the 1960s.

if any organisation other than a church had been doing this in western europe the régime would have been recognised as one of slavery.

why should it be different for roman catholics?

The office party is at a remote location and does not include spouses, but I was given special permission to attend.

Should I go, given that I was asked to go by the "big boss", but will probably be scrutinized by other colleagues; or should I not go and don't worry about it?

I want to go, but I'm afriad other colleagues will think "favorites" are being played.

Why, down to almost every chemical reaction, does everything just "work"? Why are there no really bad f**** ups in reality? Why does everything go according to plan?

Have you ever researched to find out if your understanding is true? Do you think that Catholic Christians believe the pope is incapable of sin? Do you believe that Catholic Christians believe that the pope is incapable of error?

In either the question (calling people chicken or morons ) or in the answer (calling the asker "idiot" or some other offensive name)? It seems like quite a few people are making arguments for the 'other team' by their actions.

I had this maid of honor, who was pushy and over bearing. It was really starting to get on my nerves but i chalked it up to jelousy Well she got pregnant and she was having finacial troubles big time to start. so now she is going on welfare to have this baby , so by the time it would come to get a new dress the cost would go up considerably and in addition it would make the other girls have to pay more to particapate and I didn't feel it was fair to them to pay more because of her. So i asked her to take another position as she was really stressing me out

after she concured with everything i said accepted the new position when I presented it to her in a polite manner I never mentioned her nasty behavior traits that were really bugging me. i told her I thought with the cost going up that her baby was more importatint and that she could still particapate in the wedding without the cost. and that her life was about to take a big change and she could really use that money instead

Must I acquire a PhD in religious studies before I can say there's no evidence for the existence of any god?

-- If an atheist has no right to make any claims about the likely non-existence of any god, then it seems to me that believers have no right making a positive claim about their god's existence, either. You don't want to use a double standard, now, do you?

The Law of Atraction

2007-12-16 08:20:23 · 10 answers · asked by Wallace Stegner 4 in Religion & Spirituality

I was reading this book about a year ago and it was talking about the after life, and no matter the race or backround or even location all of them saw there family members and got a chance to go to heaven but lived to tell it at the end.
They even had a special section of non believers, people who never believe in a God and that they were only worm food came back and decided to become Christians.

And then there were some who believed in God but never choose to have a religion.

Would reading this book change there views maybe?
I will admit I was crying because it was so touching.
