New age beliefs taught by Dr. Wayne Dyer, Deepak Chopra, etc. teaches us that we can indeed create our own reality using our thoughts. We can manifest anything in our life using the power of our intentions. We can manifest money, hapiness, prosperity, health, relationships, etc... using the power of our intention. If we intend something it will magically manifest. The idea stems from that we are part of God or God and that we have the power to create anything we desire. My question is that can you believe in creating what you desire and still be a christian, jew, or muslim? please explain

I recently had an experience. I was walking around and suddenly some voice captured me, and there he was, Jesus, he spoke to me. Then, Irecogniced it was a voice of a passer by, but I knew it was Jesus who had spoken to me through this other guy. The great thing is that we are now best friends.

Of course, I am not advocating imposing and prostelizing our religions. I am just asking about more public ritual and more public literature and information regarding the peacefulness and love of many of our Pagan religions. Another important part is the integrity which seems to be missing in many christians. Emphasizing integrity for oneself is an important ingredient for happiness which breeds peace, acceptance and cooperation among others. How do we go about this? Any good ideas?

I ask a question, and I get "you must believe first" or, "atheists actually believe in God, they jsut are afraid". Afraid of what dumbass?? Going to heaven???

I DONT BELIEVE IN YOUR GOD! Even if your God existed, I would declare war on him because he is a wimp and he is too afraid of mankind to show his face.

I asked a question about this verse
Qur’an 5:51 “Believers, take not Jews and Christians for your friends.”.

and a Muslim posted that friends in that sentence is, " "awleyaa" which means leaders over you", does this mean that Muslims should not have non Muslim leaders? If so, does this mean that non Muslim minorities in Islamic countries cannot be elected to public office? Also, what does it mean for Muslims in non-Islamic countries? Does this verse mean that they should not follow the non Muslim government or try to establish an Islamic state?

"According to most creation stories, out of primal Nothingness, the All or Everything emerges or emanates. Paradoxically, everything seems to come from nothing."

How does nothing become something?

Could someone please show me this evidence, seeing as I cant find any, and since any scientific evidence would not be scientific as science cannot explain the supernatural.

I'm just curious since I have a friend who despises homosexuality but is involved with someone who is married. Seems a little at odds with their religious beliefs one way or the other.

Qur’an 5:51 “Believers, take not Jews and Christians for your friends.”.

This is from the Koran, and it tells you not to have friends from among the Jews or Christians. It this true? Or is there something I do not get. If there is, please explain.

I don't mean violence. Even if I, say, give an angry speech against sweatshops, fascism or racism, why does this make me less enlightened?

I wondered last night and today as i tried to comprehend the mentality of atheism. I couldnt bear the thought of the total aloneness of that. How could I accept being totally totally alone and just a simple evolution in the " cosmic accident of life " ? I once had to get into an MRI tube and it was so tight and dark and that claustrophobic aloneness was to much to bear.I asked to be let out of there..that feeling of being alone was so eerie. I also saw last night the previews of the movie, " Desent ". The actresses were deep inside the earth and lost their way, no light and millions of tons of earth on them with no light to crawl out. It made me weep again for my friends that think this NO GOD way. Jesus appeared 2 me..healed me of cancer..I saw Him many times... Hes real..so I cant accept or bear the thought of anyone being seperate from Him.. How could I ever just accept this and be happy for anyone who is faithless ? Of course I respect you..but how can I be happy about it? I cant.

Notice the word: ANOTHER?

John 14:16
And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;

if the comforter is the holyspirit as John has claimed, then why would Jesus call the holyspirit with another?
another means = another one.

Do you count this as field service time? You are on here for a very long time, sometimes preaching. I can't believe that is acceptable.

If a person writes and composes a new hymn it can never be used as that would mean revising millions of hymn books to include it. Is there another way that the hymn could be adopted??
