The registered sex offender who authorities say confessed to kidnapping and slaying 9-year-old Jessica Lunsford and buried
her alive will be forgiven by God...

In the end it really doesn't matter WHAT
or how HORRIBLE you are in life...
God will forgive you...

Lucky for the folks who do horrible
crimes, know they will be forgiven, right!

If God cares about the people he created, then why did he send them to an eternity of torture in hell just because they didn't believe in the right things about him? Where is the mercy and love in that?

If that is where most of the Laws were set and yet seems to be the Jubilee Laws are the most neglected, misrepresented laws there are… I mean I got the passage Lev. 20:13, which says (in the King James Version), "If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination." It is the strongest argument abiout homosexuality there is but if we are going to choose that passage with which to adhere why not the any of the others where Leviticus condemns a lot of things as "abominations." In example, from verses 10-12:And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living thing which is in the waters, they shall be an abomination unto you: They shall be even an abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in abomination. Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that shall be an abomination unto you.I am thinking that means no Long John Silvers or Red Lobster…Or the uncleanliness of pork. You don’t think when you hit the pearly gates someone will be there saying.” But you ate pork…On Easter Sunday!?!?!” and then later on there are other references later with Peter when he is told Nothing that God has made is unclean. So which is it? Pork and shellfish or not?

I know you're free and normal now, but there had to be SOMETHING that kept you in that scene that you miss once in a while.

Considering they took a lot of our symbols and festivals and ideas should they not be considered the Neo-Pagans because they took the crux of Pagan beliefs and mixed them up a bit with guilt and made it monotheistic ?
Personally I DETEST being referred to as a Neo-Pagan as me beliefs are hardly new.

Most religious people insist on writing their god's name as God, or in some cases G-d. This doesn't make any sense to me. It's not as though this is actually the god's name, just a categorization of rank in society. In the Jewish tradition, only the head cohen (priest) actually knows the Jewish god's real name and speaks it once a year on the most sacred ground. I could understand capitalizing that, but why the word god? Yes, we do refer to people as King X, but when not attached to the name, king is not capitalized.

With so many shahid getting their wish fulfilled in the Gaza, Lebanon, Iraq and Afganistan they are probably running out by now.

(without making any snyde/ignorant comparisoms to someone else' --- PLEASE)

- I'd like to know the name of your 'god(s)' (or God)...
- How you worship...
- What thing convinced you to follow the 'god' (God) you follow...
- If you believe in Heaven/Hell (or equivalent...and no, earth doesn't count)
- the name of your official 'Bible'
- Why you worship God (god)

This question is Open to all faiths....and even atheist who worship no god (but rather themself)...

I'm Christian. I believe in God. The Holy Bible is my 'bible'...lol...I believe in Heaven & Hell. I believe God judges all ( & not man!) and I believe the only way to worship is in the way we live...to bring honor/glory to Christ, by obeying God's teachings.

Some people define prayer as: Communicating with God. If this is true then is it praying to tell God to go to hell?

If I had to pick a religion that most likely adheres to the law of the Bible, I think the Amish would win hands down. They pretty much adhere to the Bible by the letter of the law; the beards, the fact that you can’t photograph them, they eschew many modern conveniences and frown on a lot of things they deem as outside God’s law.Jeez that is a tough crowd. So which religion do you feel most depicts the laws of the Bible and why?

I am once again amazed at how angry people get when christians tell things as they are. If a man steals, is he not a thief? If a man lies, is he not a liar? If a man kills with malicious intent, is he not a murder? If a person rebukes the laws of God and the bible, are they not heathens? The word of God is what it is. The Truth. Simple as that? Men and women of God let's keep spreading the word. Are you with me?
