I asked a ligimate question and gave prove as to why I say the Bible has been changed to suite the christian religion. This specific passage I took as an example came from Isaiah 9, the same passage christians use to claim Jesus is God. I compared it to the Torah version and it clearly shows that the scripture (Bible) has been "modified".

How come no Christian could give me a response to about the Bible being correct and not tampered with?

My core beliefs- The supreme force is the impersonal Ultimate Reality (or life force, ultimate truth, cosmic order, absolute bliss, universal soul), which resides within and/or beyond all. There are no particular incarnations because God is all and all are God (or God is in all). God is creating and controlling the phenomena uncovered by scientists. Or there are other spiritual explanations, but not in conflict with scientific discovery. All matter and life forms are manifestations (or illusions) of the eternal Absolute (Ultimate Truth, Universal Soul or Mind, etc.). Rebirths occur (continually, or until all life's lessons are learned and one merges with the life force, or until complete enlightenment and eternal bliss are attained). Egoism (self-importance) leads to desire, craving, and attachments, which can lead to unwholesome thoughts and behavior, i.e., greed, hate, and violence. (and on and on...)

"Lord, make me a channel of Thy Peace -- that where there is hatred, I may bring Love -- that where there is wrong, I may bring the Spirit of Forgiveness -- that where there is discord, I may bring Harmony -- that where there is error, I may bring Truth -- that where there is doubt, I may bring Faith -- that where there is despair, I may bring Hope -- that where there are shadows, I may bring Light -- that where there is sadness, I may bring Joy.
Lord, grant that I may seek rather to Comfort than to be comforted -- to Understand, than to be understood -- to Love, than to be loved. For it is by self-forgetting that one finds. It is by forgiving that one is forgiven It is by dying that one awakens to Eternal Life."

Hi, my elephant is dirty, and my wife (Ann Coulter) won't wash it so I have to. Do any of you devil-worshipping pagans know how I can burn some incest to magically wash the elephant? Not that I wanna use it, just that I want to go burn down the store that sell it.

God Bless Jesusland!

Feminist ideas can be found to some degree in certain Christian groups. Catholicism has come a long way other than the refusal to allow women into the same role played by Priests. Why must there be an "Our Father," but no God the Mother? It's easy to just say we are distancing ourself from pagan traditions of old but the feminine role for God is not necessarily un-Christian. So, why must God be only male and only a Father? What would a feminist understanding of Christianity/Catholicism contribute to our faith and understanding? In last weeks homily the priest said that Abba means "Daddy" and we can thus pray to "Daddy" or "Mommy?" Can we? Why and how?

They seem to do this for anything regarding their religion that lacks logic. Or any far fetched aspect of their religion can be explained away as 'you just have to have faith'. Isn't this just a cop out?

For example:
You say that god is all love, but he created everything, then he also created evil didn't he?

Why is it that every aspect of the Genesis creation story contradicts what science shows us about the universe? (Why would god say the stars were there to give humans 'signs' when there are billions of stars that aren't visible with the naked eye?)

What did the carnivores on Noah's Ark eat? Also, why is there no record of a world wide flood in the geological record?

If incest is a sin, then why did Lot's daughters get him drunk and have sex with him to get themselves pregnant after Sodom was destroyed?

The list goes on and on.

Just for frame of reference, I know the passages in Leviticus 18.22 for example, and Romans 1. But I don't think homosexuals are destroying the American family.

Please try and explain your believe how homosexuality is destroying the American family.

Something tells me people aren't going to read the details and I'm going to get a lot of people quoteing Leviticus and telling me I have to read Romans 1. Or that I need the holy spirit.

and that this "earth" we are living on, is actually Hell?

Hell is filled with sinners, killers, gay people, homophobes, me (specially me), bible-thumpers, thiefs, hate (specially hate)..

yeah, the more i think about it, we probably all already made it to Hell.

feels kinda safe, doesn't it?

If yes, what are the rules about sex in heaven?

If no, why not? Since it seems to be one of the most treasured of human pleasures, right up there with ice cream and golf.

i tried it long long ago as a kid, but boy did it work! Am interested in the paranormal and would like to recaputure the excitement I experienced when we did it as children. But am now a little more scared to try it again - probably because it was effective.
