"But I feel that the greatest destroyer of peace today is abortion, because it is a war against the child - a direct killing of the innocent child - murder by the mother herself. And if we accept that a mother can kill even her own child, how can we tell other people not to kill one another? How do we persuade a woman not to have an abortion? As always, we must persuade her with love, and we remind ourselves that love means to be willing to give until it hurts. Jesus gave even his life to love us. So the mother who is thinking of abortion, should be helped to love - that is, to give until it hurts her plans, or her free time, to respect the life of her child. The father of that child, whoever he is, must also give until it hurts. By abortion, the mother does not learn to love, but kills even her own child to solve her problems. And by abortion, the father is told that he does not have to take any responsibility at all for the child he has brought into the world. That father is likely to put other women into the same trouble. So abortion just leads to more abortion. Any country that accepts abortion is not teaching the people to love, but to use any violence to get what they want. That is why the greatest destroyer of love and peace is abortion. "

The Zetas have stated that approximately 1,000 lifetimes is required for a young, newborn soul, to learn its first lesson, to determine whether to be Service-to-Other, caring, or Service-of-Self, self focused.
They have also stated there are well over a billion reincarnated souls on earth now
the Oahspe
...The true Bible tells likewise

Have you noticed how angry atheists get for us expressing our faiths? They act almost intimidated by us. Shouldn't we Christians, Muslims, and Jews pray for these poor misguided souls?

distruction it has caused, thru the years. Why sooooo many
different "views" ?? . Is this the way our creator wants it to be?

Who are these jerks to push there beliefs to us and why do they get so violent when you don't believe? Aren't they suppose to be praticing peace and compassion? Why don't they just mind their own fu@king business and stop force feeding their BS to the rest of us? Seriously?

I heard that there's a place that's not as bad as hell that is made for sinners like theives and liars, but hell is reserved for the hard core sinners like murderers, adulturers, and homosexuals. Does heck really exist?

I have asked several questions related to religion, and some of the most mean and hateful replies come from people who claim to be Christian.
P.S. I am of the Christian faith.

I indeed believe there is a God. A good one at that. In my conception a God who is perfect neither needs nor requires our worship. God is comfortable and sufficently content in the self that God is. Now if by worship you mean focus I could understand, but somehow I do not think most who worship think of it as strictly a focus. I believe these people see themselves as inferior and not as being a friend like I believe the creator would want.

If that had have happen today, Jesus would be considered a punk.
Dont give me that crap about Jesus dying for your dirt. He could have found a more peaceful way to die for your sins

I usually do not get involved with questions about potical violence or Islam but I just had a thought after reading someone's question.

Do you think suicide bombers (they call themselves Maryters) would be MORE EFFECTIVE at accomplishing their poltical objectives if they only killed themselves?


Do you remember or know of the stories from Vietnam when Buddhists monks delibertly killed themselves (by pouring gasoline overthemselves and being burnt to death)? That had a HUGE impact on the psychie of the world and was part of what lead to the anti-war movement.

I think the reason most people around the world do not sympathise with suicide bombers is because they kill others indiscriminitly. What if they showed their sincerity by only killing themselves? I think the world would stand up and take notice of their cause.

Right now, almost no one really cares what there cause is.

Any thoughts?
