Religion & Spirituality - 11 August 2006

I accept the possiblility of Purgatory (latin for "through fire" I believe) for the cleansing of man before entering heaven. I accept the valid arguement of the Catholic church.

I accept that Jesus is Judge and that all must "go through Him to enter into heaven."

These beliefs defend God as Righteously Jealous (He is just so Good).

Can you then attempt to sway me with scripture?

two people are drowning. one believes in god. one believes in something else. you aren't sure which is which, but you suspect the person on the left to be the believer. they are each the same distance from you. who do you save?

Why do you not accept Jesus as your Saviour,If you claim that you have,how then are you not Born Again,in light of 1 John 5:1:"Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ,is BORN of God"?

Atheists don't follow a self contradicting Scripture
Atheists don't give money to a cult
Atheists don't inspire terrorism
So why spout rubbish like this twisted theist on my last question?

Did you believe that God was calling you? (yes YOU!) When I was 11 I was sitting on a pier in Pearl Harbor Oahu Hawaii-which looked straight across the harbor at The Arizona Memorial-and a group of kids and I were discussing the real neat movie we had seen the night before called The Ten Commandments (Charleton Heston as Moses and Yul Brenner as Pharoh) and as we spoke about different scenes I brought-up that I liked the part where God wrote The Commandmants with bolts of fire-as I was saying this a small meterorite came past the pier and as I followed its path it sailed up toward the northeren skies and there in the clouds was an angry bearded face in perfect form of a picture and surrounding it in various places were aproximately 6 pairs of holes and reminded me of eyes-when I showed the other kids they all became frightened and we ran-What kind of a GOD would frighten children and why? (I know )Yeah Sure Buddy-but this is a true story-and no it wasn't Jesus cause the face was old

Does the other lack faith? OR does he perhaps have some unresolved sin blocking the effectiveness of his prayers?

Hey guys Maria Magdalene didn;t give birth to any child
of Jesus.....

Jesus became the Father of all of us.We are all His
children.

He didn't need to make love to Maria
Magdalene.Their relationship was spiritual ......

He was God on Earth.....

But He really gave us birth in Love and
Beauty of Universe...

Can you believe that people of earth?

Ok I was raised by a christian mom and a muslim dad and people complain that I don't align myself with any religion but through reasearch I see that so many bad things come from organized religion espically them using to justify things that I don't find right.

Like with the current thing with muslim terrorist they truely belivie it's the will of god that they punish americans, etc etc. But it's not like this is the first time this has happend with relgion.

They used it to justify the proscutition and murder of jews.
They used it to justify the murder of native americans.
They used it to justify discrimnating against black ands slavery.
They used it to not allow other races into preisthood.
They use it now to judge other people even in todays time like homosexuals.

I see a pattern. Do I have any right in this at all? The only reason people changed some of these because of changingn times, so how could it change unless recent relavations. it doesn't make since to me, anyone?

Where have our rights gone. In this country, if you are Muslim or Jewish or even Athiest, you have a right to speak your mind in schools or in branches of governments. But if you mention Jesus Christ, that's a wrap. Why have our rights been taken away? Is the government so afraid of insulting other people that it will walk all over our God given right to free speech? Please, whether you agree, disagree, or have a non'biased opinion, give me your honesty in answering this question.

Jesus knew the way in which he would die. He knew while praying in Gethsemane. If God know's what is going to happen before it happens then do we truly have the fully ability to make our own decisions? To put it another way, if God knows the decisions we are going to make before we make them isn't everything in a sense pre-ordained? Doesn't that limit our free will? Were Christians saved by an event that we ultimately had no power to stop?

Jesus said, that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her, has already committed adultery with her in his heart. Have you ever done that?

Some people believe that Baptists and Penacostals can't get along. Some people also believe that one is going to heaven and the others aren't. What do you believe?

Do you have one account you use for real answers and then another you use for answers you wouldn't want anyone to know you actually wrote?

If not, why not? It's so liberating!
