Seriously, I have been a "born again" christian for most of my life and recently I feel as if a veil has been lifted from my eyes and I can see clearly for the first time in my life. I have found answers to many of the questions I was told I wasn't supposed to question or wasn't worhty of knowing, until I met God. It seems many spiritual leaders don't want you to question things. Thanks to those who did anyways or the Earth might still be flat and the Sun would revolve arround us. Germs and bacteria would be a punishment from God and nobody would have developed antibiotics. Etc. Etc.

Look, if you need to believe in a God to get you through the day, great, but don't assume those who don't share your views are evil or stupid, we just don't agree...and yet we don't want to kill you! Imagine that.

Those who claim to be saved, I was one, are the same people who are always judging others...Isn't that supposed to be a sin?

Why can't we all just get along.....

I'm sorry, but reading through some of your answers here recently about the 10 Commandments, Mosaic Law and other Jewish Law it is apparent that many of you do not understand what "Law" really means.
Please consider Mosaic Law, civil law and ceremonial law. We as Christians have abandoned the last two for the new and everlasting Covenant that Jesus brought into the world. We are still under the Mosaic Law, (i.e., the Ten Commandments, etc....) Are you saying that we do not have to abide within the 10 Commandments anymore?
How about - " I did not come to abolish the Law, but to fulfill it." as Jesus spoke. Much of the Law is not abolished.
Question - what Mosaic Laws do you not think are relevent anymore?

Did you become an atheist because your parents weren't perfect? If yes, weren't you expecting too much?

2007-12-29 06:20:44 · 30 answers · asked by Stan Smith 1 in Religion & Spirituality

Heh, weird question I know, but I just would like to know where I stand in the game of life so far. Am I ahead of the pack? Trailing behind? On par?

PROS:
I'm fairly young, I'm 22
I have a full time job and go to school full time
I have a decent car
I have 20 thousand saved up in my account from working my *** off

CONS:
MY grades in school are only so-so
I still live with parents and probably will for awhile yet
I have no credit
Im kind of ugly


Thanks

When you go door to door, I would imagine there is a certain type of person that will be the most amenable to your views. Is it the person who has only a rudimentary knowledge of the Bible and the tenets of "Christendom" as you call it? Is it the person who has plenty of biblical knowledge and yet suddenly sees things from your perspective instead? Is it the person who holds a non-Christian (Wiccan, Muslim, etc.) or atheist belief? Other demographics?

Our consciousness affects our subatomic particles and by quantum physics we know that the particles can be anywhere at any given moment or spring up in multiple places at the same time and most likely in more dimensions.

So, wouldn't it make sense that we are existing somewhere else at this very moment and when we die we just continue life in one of the places that we are already alive? Life just continues in these circles with there being no true death other than past things falling apart.

Does anyone believe this idea? If you don't, why? If you do, then what is the point of all this?

PS. I'm not high, just bored. Don't bother with the predictable jokes.

why are people leaving?, they put Q that they are not coming back.
yes you will come here and get thumbs down, reported, Q deleted , people will be rude. people that don’t approve with you, people would never agree at one thing , we all have different opinion,diffrent views of something.
remember wolf she left because people accused her of being non-Muslim, although that is wrong from us Muslims to accuse people of not being Muslim(even al-Qiyamah had a Q about that(http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AoUOu9HJ63uhMQCJwtPf1rbty6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20071227123758AAmEI2T)

we come here to learn, to see different opinions, thoughts of people, to meet nice people. Nothing that happens in yahoo answer should be the reason that people leave.
if you don’t like someone just ignore them, don’t answer there Q.

When did you start questioning the religious beliefs you grew up with? Or if you never have, you can answer that and explain why if you like. Lots of us as children believed in religious somethings without question simply because we were children and we were taught that. Whether or not you never stopped believing them or went back to them later in life is irrelevant to the first part of the question (though it is relevant to the second part of the question below), what I want to know is just when did you start questioning and such.

And, where are you at with those beliefs now? Have they changed much, are you no longer a believer in what you grew up with, or what?
