Religion & Spirituality - 26 June 2006

Do you realize that all Christians aren't trying to convert you to thier beliefs?

Do you realize that Christians aren't all morons blindly following religion?

Did you know that in every group of people whether it be religious or non religious is made up of all kinds of people, evil, good, intellighent and ignorant?

Can't we all just agree to respect what we believer or don't believe?

I for one grew up non religious. My choice to become Catholic took many years of study and soul searching to come to my decision. In the end I knew it was the correct choice and what God wanted for me.

I never see anyone attacking Muslims, Hindus, Buddists, etc. What about our faith makes it such a target? When the trumpet sounds and we go to meet Jesus, I wonder what our persecutors will think... My faith is real to me and I'm sorry if my explanations don't satisfy your need for "proof". Faith isn't just about religion, it's about life. Just because you can't see it or prove it doesn't mean it isn't there. Can you see the wind? Faith IS the evidence of things unseen. I apologize if for some reason that confuses or angers you but I will not apologize for a faith that has carried me through the darkest times in my life.

Leviticus 19.19 clearly states to not wear clothing made of different material.

But even heterosexuals going to their wedding service are in clear violation of this! I just don't understand,

why is it ok for heterosexuals who stand before God as sinners, sinning against the Lord God violating Leviticus 19.19, but its not permissible for two men to get married in violation of Leviticus 19.20?

Isn't it ok for them to be homosexual, since they aren't bound to the old testement anymore?

This is something I probably will never get over and a problem that never fill be fully solved.

How have you handled not being able to medically have kids? what are some of the ways you have coped and dealt with it?

I would like people to answer this question who have been where I have been and dont through waht I am going through?

Does it ever get better or easier?

You know like the one that says that the punishment for an insubordinate woman is death by stoning. Ditto gay guys. nd don't say "well, some stuff in the bible is outdated now. modern times are different" because then you enter a quagmire. To wit, What give you the right to pick and choose what teachings are outdated. especially when the bible says to follow the "word and letter of the lord" that means, Start killing those rebellious teenagers, christians of the world, for it is a sin for thy to pick and choose!

Or better yet, just live life, man. don't go by the silliness of an old book that says Noah fit 2 of every species in an ark. What the hell?? There are BILLIONS of species on this planet, man.

But according to this there is a scientific explanation:

I was helping someone who was sick and this person is realted to me and he was very demanding and complaining and needed everything done for him, no problem, in life we have to do things we dont want to do.

I dropped this person off at a persons house because he was going on a spritual mens retereat and conference, he was whining and complaining that he did not have enough money meanwhile I gave him enough money for the one night trip.

So as I was dropping him off. I looked directly at him and said you have exhausted my resources, you have stressed me out and maxed out my patience and I have no use for you tajke your luggage and go.

I am not sorry I said this because what I said was the truth and he called and apologized.

What do you do with people that exhaust your resources and patience? I know we are supposed to love one another, but how much are we supposed to endure and take, is it wong to set up boundaries because I have had to do that lately

A few months ago I started practicing witchcraft. It has always interested me but when I was younger my parents wouldn't let me have anything to do with it. I have successfuly done spells, but what else do you do? Christians read the bible and go to church, so what do pagans do? A lot of the books I see at stores are stupid and just for teenagers. I feel lost and don't know where to start. I am interested in the earth part of the religion and I also read tarot cards. Is witchcraft one religion or is there different types?Yes, I know in the bible it says your not suppose to do witchcraft. Any help would be appreciated.

If you are atheist and all, why are you worried about the christians and our beliefs. Shouldn't you worry about your own? As I read the questions everyday that you atheists write, I wonder why you aren't trying to persuade others to follow your beliefs. Instead you are putting down on the Christians beliefs. I really don't see any Christians putting down on you. So why put down on us. In fact some of you atheists are putting down on other religions as well. which is not fair at all. So my point being why don't you atheists worry about your own beliefs and not ours. It is not like you are listening to us anyways so why worry yourselves?

I'm a born again Christian and my friend led me to the Lord, but now she's mixed up in some crazy false doctrine. I prayed last night and don't know if it's an answer or my feelings about what she's doing. What can I do? I've talked to her, and questioned her about this stuff, but she becomes defensive. Now she's bringing it to family, and confusing the babies. A born again would know what I'm talking about. Please help me help her

Even they have great knowledge about old n new testaments and they had strong beleife on it before they accepted islam...
now they rejected trinity,divinity and the bible as true/pure word of GOD............
soo why not everybody read the bible and stablish a good neutral research foundation beside church or mosque
to identify every religion wich have been considered as word of GOD to find true path of life n hereafter and create (ISLAM)
means peace........
i know that nobody will follow any religion forcefully but to recognize with logic & comon sence....
ALLAH said in Quran dont follow any worse without getting true knowledge & feel it to be truth
my pray to ALLAH (GOD) give us true path peace love and guidence AMEEN (AMEN)
