Religion & Spirituality - 10 August 2006

I recently saw a show on the History Channel that talked about the code and how they found sequences about past events and such, which I found intriguing. Near the end of the show, they talked about how some code researchers said that apocalypse is here and that the four horsemen will come. This lead to talk about how they thought there will be a war in the middle east on '06 and eventually the end of the world in 2012 when a comet hits the Earth. When the war in Israel broke out, this was the first thing that I thought of. I mean the world seems to be becoming a less and less peaceful place does anyone think the end is near?

The Aztec's Omlec's and Mayans all describe a God who taught, and looked the same as the Jesus of the East. The Mayans even believed that the Quatzequatl (the Great Feathered Serpent) would return in the final stages of the earth to rescue them from the destruction. Is it easier to believe that Jesus forgot, or ignored the entire american continent, than it is to believe that he came and preached his word here as well?

God is a spirit, he created all by his word, he created a body in the womb of Mary (only flesh from God not her) that body is the word made flesh/ son of God (not marry) God the Father is dwelling inside that body (body of Christ)
as he is omniprescent he is in heaven also (john 5:13) the holy spirit is the same spirit as God the father and spirit of Christ, He is ONE God completely who dwells in his own word that was made his own flesh.

All questions welcome although may not all be answered

If humans have ghosts (but IF, but go with me please..), and humans are animals, then some animals have ghosts right?
So, how far back in the tree of life do creatures have ghosts?

Cats and dogs have ghosts? Then all mammals do? - even giraffe and platypus ghosts?

What about fish? They are vertebrates too - is my toilet haunted because i flushed goldie the goldfish 10 yrs ago?

What about ants? Are there billions of ant ghosts for the billions of ants... Jellyfish ghosts, Mushrooms? Sun-flower ghosts? Where does it stop????

Bacteria, single celled organisms, where, what are the boundaries?

[NB- this is my second attempt at the same question...]

I have walked through the "Valley of Death" and back again. Sorry but God wasn't there, maybe he's afraid of bullets ;-(
Good men are dead and don't tell me it's all about "Free Will". I'm not buying that. Come up with something better.

Both the jewish and the christian religins based their set of believes on the bibles - the old and the new testements respectively.
Why are you all so sure in bible word? It has been written by ink on paper years after events. Even the new testement has been written at least 100 years after the aleged life of jesus.
It is not like someone walked arround with Mary and later with Jesus and the others - Peter, Paul, Mark or whoeveer writing a journal...!
This is not a trick question. Really want to know.

How many times has God contradicted his own words with his own actions? Much like Christ, and even holy men. The bible states: prove me wrong, and you'll be proving me right. As long as you question the bible, you are believing in it. The bible is a game. You can't walk away. The penalty is hell, the reward of understanding is heaven. Which will you choose? But which is which? Is the bible of God? Or of Satan? Which causes more pain?
Prove me wrong, and you'll be proving me right.

Do you guys think you are guarantee to go to hell if you killed someone? Doesn't matter if it on purpose or not.

Do you think they have a chance of going to heaven if they repent and live a Christian life afterwards?

What about suicide? Killing yourself, straight to hell. Killing someone, chance to go to heaven?

I would just like to hear other peoples thoughts on either of the above mentioned Gospels........I don't care if they are in the traditional bible or not, the Catholic Church picked the books included in the Holy Bible and New Testament. I just want your thoughts if you are familiar with them on those Gospels. I also urge you to look them up if you are not familiar with them and see what you pick up from them.

With the definition of a cult being "a group who follows a charismatic leader" would early Christianity be considered a cult? Now before you condemn me to hell... a cult isnt always a Waco Texas type of thing, k? Serious answers only please.

Religion fanatics, Left or right wingers? etc etc. No room for intelligent discussion. Most questions here are pretty light weight without much thought.

simple honest question? If the earliest trinitarian material dates back to AFTER the bible was written how can it be the word of God if no one in the bible wrote about it or preached it, not hinted or pointed to it but truthfully wrote about and expounded upon it proclaiming it to be God's word, why is it never acutually written, why is no one ever baptized in the titles? I am being detailed in my question because I want a tuthful detailed answer, I ask in a true loving heart.

I don't have a clear understanding of why so many people are attracted to organized religion, when God considers everyone created equal in his/her own likeness. Does it really matter what religion you choose or if you choose one at all? Does it matter to God?
