Religion & Spirituality - 25 July 2006

Throughout history, ppl have taken 2 worship things or ppl alongside of God or just worshipping something else like power, status, or money. Even the names of religions seem 2 have more to do with creation n less or nothing 2 do with the creator. Buddhism - Budda (name of a man); Confucianism - Confucius (name of a man); Hinduism - Hind (name of an area); Judaism - Judah (name of a tribe) and Christianity - Christ ( name of a great prohet).

I have read a lot of people saying that Christians tell them they will burn in hell. I have never heard a true Christian say that, except maybe a fire and brimstone type minister, which is not my style!!! Or Jesus' for that matter....

Please don't believe that ALL Christians say this to people.

Why are there so many Pro-War Christians in America? To be a Right-Wing American is almost synonymous with being Christian and Pro-War. Is Jesus happy about that? That being the killing of all those little arab babies in the search for WMD?

I think Atheism is a relgion because you have to basically believe that there is no god, and there is no to know that. They have to have faith that there is no god, and thats why I think it's a relgion. I just want other peoples opnions.

Lets say you were God and you know everything and could do everything. Whats the one thing you wouldn't be able to do. And yes it sounds stupid but by knowing everything and being able to do everything there actually is one thing you can't do.

We always see the questions about how we are "going to hell" and what we're doing is "full of sin" blah blah blah in the gay and lesbian section. Why even come to the gay and lesbian section and ask us if we KNOW we're going to hell, ect? You know all it's going to do is piss us off, and you're not even looking for a REAL answer, because based on your questions, you're OBVIOUSLY too close minded and judgemental ALREADY to even ATTEMPT to take our responses seriously, because you BELIEVE Christianity and the Bible is the one and ONLY true "way" and nothing is going to change your mind..just like nothing is going to change the mind of gay and lesbian individuals. So, since you're looking for someone that agrees with you, why don't you ask your fellow bible thumpers what THEY think of homosexuality and leave the gay and lesbian section alone?

A guy who does good and obeys God because he wants to avoid hell and get into heaven or a guy who doesn't believe in God but does good because he has compassion for others?

Growing up I always heard that since Jesus died on the cross, the New Testament was what we are supposed to follow. If that is true, then what about the 10 commandments? Please explain this, to the best of your ability. I do not pretend to be the slightest bit intelligent about religion, although I am very curious and would like to know more. This question is not being asked out of hate or criticism. Please do not take offense. I am truly wanting to know the answer.


Serious answers only please...I don't knock you for your choice in questions or religion, please don't bash me for mine!

The existence of the soul can be proven.
human beings study the visible world and from these events can create purely spiritual realities called IDEAS. If you see a criminal being punished, the mind forms the idea of "justice". JUSTICE is a universal abstract concept that is a SPIRITUAL REALITY. It is impossible for something material to create something spiritual. Only the SOUL can do this because everybody has a soul.
how many agree?

I am a spiritual person. I am not religious per se, but believe in God. I don't believe in having a denomination. I believe there is good and evil surrounding us all the time. I pray all the time for God's help and to show me his will and that he will send his angels to fight off the demons that are always trying to attack my weaknesses as a person. I believe God is so great, we just can not imagine his wisdom, love, grace and mercy. I believe there is a devil. I think he is cunning, destructive, finds pleasure in ruin and loves to mislead us any way he can. Even when bad things happen to me, I thank God for the lessons I have learned, each and everyone of them. I am grateful to be so blessed. I wonder how others face the woes of any given day, how they stay centered, strong and focused. I wonder if others believe in prayer, diligence, patience and by giving of ones self and love to others because all things work for good in God's plan. I believe my judge is God only. I am a realist.

If not, does that make him/her/it real? If so, does that make you a polytheist. In turn, if you admit to being a polytheist, are you also a heritic.

My question is based on what many Christians deem as "logic". I want to know how or why my "God" is or isn't real based on this logic scheme.

Check my definitions if you must, but they are indeed solid. So lets avoid a war of symantics and get down to the "nitty gritty".

Please, no impertinent Bible quotes.

I hope to see you all in heaven.

in fact I would say you are all atheists. The only difference between you and I, is that I beleive in one less god than you do.

Now when you figure out why you dismiss all those other gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours.

God is not not a religion He is Love

Manmade things cause religion and war.

True Love does not.

Man tries to distort love and justify wrongs, but in the long run this is truly not possible.

We have freewill which is God given, so we must learn to be wise with our choices.

When people see that God is Love and The Creator, and that we are simple limbs of the same body, only then can we move forward together.

We cannot progress separately, we must unite, in LOVE!!!

Peace
