does the "religious institution" apply?

I got this question off of another users website and think the question is valid and wonder what your responses to it might be:

Why do some believe that any form of spirituality is for the simple-minded? I think that it's b/c they are afraid of what they might find out. That there is a Higher Power. I know that this has probably been asked again and again. But I would truly like to hear from someone who considers my beliefs childish. Thanks.

I think that it is a little bit of a cult and it is a man made religion, how stupid can you be to believe in a religion when the founder of scientology stated that the way to be a millionaire is to start ones own religion. Well, if they are so called Thetans and are not of this Earth, why don't they go back to thier planet somehow and make colonies for themselves? And why is Hollywood so attracted to this so called Religion.. By the way, pay no attention to the Scientologist on my avatar. :)

Where rules are not mutally understood, naïve and hapless individuals can be tricked into chiseling their lives away by sitting down to coffee with "stonecutters", answering a few ambiguous questions and shaking hands at the reception after the service.Almost as ominous is a group of people to whom I will refer as "the mutual support girls". They can be guys too.The thing that distinguishes this GROUP is that they never knew the deceased individual.They may never have even seen the person.They claim they are simply there to throw their support behind a member of the deceased person's family.You can be wary that someone present is about to be "auctioned off" by "stonecutters" and they are present to share in the supposed benefits.A third type of person/scenario of which to beware is the person who approaches someone out of the blue and insists on shaking his/her hand, often prolonging the grip.NOTE scene in film 'Crash' where senior cop and rookie cop shake hands,and rookie freaks out

" God is a communist " Can I get your opinion on this? Your opinion in no way will make me question my faith, I just thought that this would be interesting.

Do you ever catch yourself wondering if there is a higher power? Do you ever question your own beliefs? What made you come to the conclusion of no higher power?

i asked people to choose between spending an eternity with only God, or only your loved one (without God)

a lot of people chose God over their loved ones. That means they rather spend an eternity with a God, and will never see their loved ones again.

I truly wonder, how would it feel if your loved one tells you that he/she would rather spend eternity with God than with you??
i would file for divorce i think, so i really don't understand it probably...

On Sundays

You = In church worshiping a non existent god trying to avoid a non existent hell in a non existent afterlife

Me = Lounging in the sun by the pool drinking pina coladas and smoking marlboro cigarettes and not wasting time doing something pointless like church

Jealous much?

everyone told me to block him anyhow i can. I shut off my fone, and put up aways on Messenger. Everytime he would IM me; he would say your a s*l*u*t/cheater for putting up aways. Then i block him. Then he comes on another sn saying i just cheated again. But hes off cheating on me. This is what he says when i say that..He says.."well i know im not a classy guy or good guy, but your a classy girl."

He seriously need's help. Im praying for him everyday!

He says everything that is the opposite of me...

Like S*l*u*t= i am so far from slut, im a virgin, sexually pure, havnt done anything sexual, waiting til marriage.
Cheater= I would never cheat, i am against it.
Ugly= I know im not ugly, people even know im not.
Bad at singing= I have the best singing voice, he just gets upset cause i could go somewhere, but that's cheating(performing) to him.

Do you feel bad for him? He sometimes on the fone says he wishes he could hit me or slap me if he was right near me!

Are these the same people who don't like drawing these figures? Isn't it degrading to an awesome person like Jesus or Muhamad to take their name? And what if you got made at them? Would you scream "Curse you Muhamad!" at him?

longer cords, and a Headset.

After letting it charge for a while, I put the headset ON, and got in my car to go to the store. When I got to the end of the driveway, the Headset, pulled my ears off. he didn't sell me a long enough cord.!!!!!!

I don't like the idea of a Lawsuit, BUT.. This has caused a real problem with me reading, I can't wear my glasses wif no earz.

What would you do ?
