Only what He looks like, not if He's really there or anything. Is it against Him to wonder what He LOOKS like?

They burn the cross as a symbol of shining the light of the jesus over them all to allow jesus to bless them. They believe in jesus and the bible and in there meetings they read from the bible. You dont see any atheist groups like that now do you? We've got class and you christians don't. The south is just a perfect example of what an all christian area is like.

I am taking a summer course in English, and we have to do a argumentative research paper. My chosen topic is religion in our schools. I believe that it belongs in our schools, but I'm having trouble finding credible facts to prove it. Does anyone have any ideas???

Think about it..

You go to buy a car from a used car lot and get one as is.It looks good it runs good so you get it.You get about six months out of it and then a part fails.The used car salesman sold it to you as is and so he won't fix it.

You are born in this world with a seemingly good body.But along the way you get cancer or arthritis or a tumor or something else that makes your body stop working or stop working well.It's not something you got from someone.It was a part(body) that has failed.But God won't fix it.Your body was given to you 'as is'.

Does that make him a mean salesman?

Note:I know we didn't actually buy our life... or maybe we did, but the point is that we are here using something that we got from God and we got it 'as is'.

Is God the reason for humans breathing and heart beating, Including myself and my family being alive. Is God the reason we all are not dead, experiencing death.

I'm just wondering because Adam and Eve's offspring all had sex with each other in order to make the population grow. Was that against God?

Think outside your big-bang theory......"Something" or "Someone" must have created that as well!

Circle.

It is terrible, on this forum every side displays intolerance including myslef, so I use this to apologize, but I also want people to notice this circle. People like me (Atheists, Agnostics, and other religious outcasts) are always told we are to go to hell, or that we must embrace god or be lost. We are led to further hatred of many Christians because of this, nobody wants to be told this, and trust me, it doesn't persuade any of us to be Christian. When we express this we simply make other Christians angry and we insult them which furthers this vicious circle. This isn't much of a question, but it is worth discussing.

drinking alcohol? How much wine did he have when he transformed water into wine. Lol Was it the expensive kind or cheapo types?

I think it was cheap. Coz wine tastes better with age.

People have told me numerous times that I should be grateful for the things God gave me. That's rubbish. I am thankful that I have the integrity to control my own life. I am thankful that my family loves me. Guess what...those things are because of me, not some absentee deity pulling strings for me.

Eg. The story in the bible about Adam and Eve happened because it says so in the bible.

All the bible proves is that the bible exists.

Another of my favourites is god exists because of all the beauty in the world.

Again all this proves is that we humans find certain things in this world beautiful. Nothing else.

Especially the scene where a religion is created, a messiah is proclaimed, a schism occurs, heritics are attacked...... all within the space of a few minutes.

"He's the messiah all right. I should know, I've followed a few." LOL

Creationists often claim things that "scientists now realise they got it wrong about evolution" or "many scientists now believe that the dinosaurs were actually around quite recently" ........... and so on. I would just like to know who these scientists are exactly ? What papers have they written ? What books have they written ? What methods of research did they use ? Why are these sweeping statements about scientists getting it wrong never backed up with examples, names, books etc etc ?

And people like Kent Hovind and Lee Strobel don't count beccause they are not scientists, they are preachers.

It is pronounced Isa in Arabic. Also a note, in the Middle East, Christians read their Arabic Bibles and say Isa ibn Allah, Jesus the son of Allah; just thought it would be interesting to some.

I used to be neither for God, G-d, Allah, Jehova, G--, Yawhe, etc.

Now, I just know the simplicities of religion: "Love G-- with all your heart and soul. Love compassion, love justice, love humility, and love everybody."

I don't judge. I act on what Jesus said for one very simple FACT

This is not an opinion. This is a FACT. If you chose to believe it great. If you don't, it is your free will. G-- Bless you.


My proof that Jesus is the Son Of G--?

...Jesus is Alive!?

I would like to share my story with any Christian or non-Christian who is still struggling and faith is not all together there.

I hold G-- to the highest, and to lie would be not only against what I believe, but against G--'s laws. Nothing here is a lie, although it might seem like it. This is the reason I type this. G-- bless you all.

I am 30 years old. I am a mathematics teacher. Since the day I was born I was Catholic. I never practiced it, and Catholic was simply a family label. I considered myself Atheist for 30 years until that day in March, I believe. I was painting my Mom's house. The face of Jesus appeared before my Mom and I. She asked me, "what does this look like to you?" But, before she finished the question I KNEW IT WAS HIM. The long hair, the beard, mustash, garments. Similar to the "Jesus" from "passion of the christ," except the eyes. Those eyes cannot be described. They translated into love, love, and love. If I had to describe them, I would say that the closest to that has been Mother Teresa's eyes. Not to take anything from her, but still, only close.
I thought that had changed me, but it didn't. It did start me off though. But, now as I researched and spent countless hours learning more about him, I started hating Jews and easily angered at anyone who spoke against Jesus. It had actually made me a worse person.
As I stuggled one morning with Currency Trading, he appeared again on the cabinet drawers of my room. He faded and came back over and over until He appeared very clear and said to me: WHY DO YOU WORRY ABOUT THINGS FROM THIS WORLD?" I think he said it two or three times. I started crying, as am right now. This was the first time that Faith came into my heart.
My life started changing, slowly. Same struggles, but different attitude and determination. I prayed day and night and went to Church. But, the real test, is the acts. "YOU WILL BE JUDGED ACCORDING TO YOUR WORKS" is one of my favorites.
In one of the Churches he said to me: "YOU ARE MARKED WITH MY BLOOD." I told my Mom and tried to make sense of it.
The last thing that he told me was: "I AM NOT YOUR FATHER. I AM YOUR BROTHER. THE SON DOES NOT EXIST WITHOUT THE FATHER, BUT WITHOUT THE SON THE FATHER IS ALWAYS."
At moments I wonder if it was all just in my imagination. This is the mistake that I keep making for this is where my Faith is tested.
No matter what, I am a better person for it. I love G-- with all my heart now, and I could never go back. Nothing in this world could ever shake or disturb my Faith. Finding G-- will always be a win-win situation. Now, I live everyday to make G-- proud of me and in the process I fulfill my obligations as human and husband.
I know that I should be doing more for G--'s glory. I am shy, but will soon find the strength and power to glorify him more and more. I am still in my learning stages, but live everyday to follow Jesus Christ's footsteps.
"pourdawg" could not be altogether wrong. But, what I know for certain is that if we are all lost souls, then we need to find G-- so that we can find ourselves in H--
"marty" tells you not to rely on feelings for that is wrong. I say to you, the problem I always made was that I thought too much and searched for contradictions here and there so that I could justify myself. But, if you think with your heart the truth will always ccome to you.

~ADIOS~

I am not here to tell you to quit your religion for they all share the great love that Jesus proclaimed. Be just, compassionate, humble and love G-- with all your heart. Share his glory by doing and not saying.

~ADIOS~

My goal now is simply to share this over and over again. I know G-- will guide me to my next step. I feel so Alive!!! Yes, even in the worst of times.

Best Answer - Chosen By You

Why do you keep posting this same story? Don't you have something more to say? Are we all supposed to read this fallacy, and say to ourselves "oh, well that's different! I believe now!" I still maintain you fell off the ladder and bumped your head.

Your Rating:

I chose your answer as best because you are the reason I post this. Yes, I have absolutely nothing more to say than to simply glorify G-- with my personal story. Why else would I waste my time here! I love G-- and the Son. My testimony to non-believers is and will. G-- bless you

They have taken prayer out of schools, Trying to take In God we trust off of our currency. The ten commandments out of the courthouses, Banning TV programs for mentioning God (Touched by an angel was cancelled)ect... Why then with every disaster that America faces does our government stand up and ask America to pray or call for a day of prayer. They only want to call on God when they need something from him otherwise he is not to be mentioned. Eventually he will get tired of this. What do you think?
