I bought a translation of the Qur'an, and the phrase Alif Lam Mim appears at the beginning of nearly every chapter.

We all have agreed to come to earth to be tested.

God, who is light and truth lights the way of all mankind.

He will be gracious to all who have not received his full light.

most of live in ignorance of all his ways. but he will be mercyful of all who are imperfect.

Life is bliss. He will allow you to live life the way you want to. an abundance of life is good if you love the light of truth.

He want us to be comfortable in life and love and mercy he will give.

He is our father and his son is our elder brother. He is mercifully. Be grateful that your alive in this day and age. to explore your dreams and ambitions. feel free to love god and nature.

recreation is your life. but work is your income. live life in the fullest and love God that you live in this the nation that he as protected to let live and allow those to migrate to live the American dream..

Any one can live in the abundance of life.

Are you with me?

A full deck, or on drugs. That's fine, It's a free country. But miracles do happen. And Here is another one that happened to me.......I was driving on an old 2 lane highway, in front of me was a big truck, I had a friend with me, we are talking and then I decided to pass the truck cuz I got tired of looking at it's ass end. Well not thinking I start to pass but on a solid white line on a hill mind you! To make a long story short who do you think I met face to face coming in the opposite direction? Yes a CHP, So I finshed passing the truck and pulled over, cuz I knew the cop would be right behind me in no time, but he wasn't, he came out of a cloud of dust, said nothing to me, handed me a ticket and walked off right back into that cloud of dust. I can still remember the look in his eyes when we met face to face. Jesus was there again my dear people, so believe what you want, but I know, and this is not the end of some of my blessings.

Lord, said David, since you do not need us,
why did you create these two worlds?

Reality replied: O prisoner of time,
I was a secret treasure of kindness and generosity,
and I wished this treasure to be known,
so I created a mirror: its shining face, the heart;
its darkened back, the world;
The back would please you if you've never seen the face.

Has anyone ever produced a mirror out of mud and straw?
Yet clean away the mud and straw,
and a mirror might be revealed.

Until the juice ferments a while in the cask,
it isn't wine. If you wish your heart to be bright,
you must do a little work.

My King addressed the soul of my flesh:
You return just as you left.
Where are the traces of my gifts?

We know that alchemy transforms copper into gold.
This Sun doesn't want a crown or robe from God's grace.
He is a hat to a hundred bald men,
a covering for ten who were naked.

Spirit, find your way, in seeking lowness like a stream.
Reason, tread the path of selflessness into eternity.

Remember God so much that you are forgotten.
Let the caller and the called disappear;
be lost in the Call.

tomorrow to make the world a better place? We all talk about how we want change...except for the really weird ones on here that just like to make trouble! :)...
All of us know there are a lot of problems with the world. What are we going to do about it?

I'm going to make a contribution to World Vision to help stop hunger. And that's a big deal-cause I'm pretty broke!

I'm also going to pray for anyone here who seemed troubled, or negative, or pessimistic, or hopeless. Sorry, atheists. That means you, too. A lot of you stand out in my mind every night-certain people with dog pictures, certain people who stay up, certain people who are SO adament about proving that god is a figment of our imagination...

I will pray that if not everyone here can seek God tonight, that they will at least be happy and provided for in the meantime. And the only reason I'm doing it is because I care about you.

How about you?

I did a poop a week ago and, when I wiped, I saw the face of Jesus on the toilet paper. I have it in a zip-lock bag in the freezer. Do you think there's a market for it?

Name me a right which doesn't require you to sin. Because I can name you plenty of wrongs that have done plenty of good.

Thanks to war, we are the Country we are today.
Thanks to guns, bombs, and soldiers trained to kill we are the Country we are today.
Thanks to killing Hitler, we are the Country we are today.
Thanks to the millions of animals and sea creatures killed to feed us, we are the Country we are today.
Thanks to thousands of wrong doings, we are able to live in the best Country today.
Thanks to the belief that every killing was done under the name of God, this Country is the Country that it is today.

We are living in a Country built of killers to protect ourselves from being killed, and are the richest and most blessed Country ever.

Name me a way to live which does not consist of sin? For the only way to protect yourself and loved ones from sinners is to sin.

This christian lady asked a question with ALL CAPS, and I asked why she was screaming. She emailed me calling me a "Thirsty Trick" and then said "God Bless You". Now I've heard alot of slang, but I've never heard this. Is this some sort of biblical referance or what?

all the time, and saying things like "i get tired of having other people shove religion on me".... has it occured to you that your in the religion and spirituality section? That any response you recieve is going to be along those lines? If you dont like Christians/muslims or whatever faith your having a problem with... why log in to this section other than to cause a bickering session? I mean if you want to talk lets talk... but it dosnt have to be about seeing if "you can rile someone up" or "yank a Christians chain".... As I said im not bashing at all but it seems to me that many of these people that get upset about having a religious response to their question are the same type that would go to a movie theater and be suprised its dark....... no vulgarity or slams please... this is not intended as a slam or bash but to see if we can get some actual intelligent conversation that might benifit someone. Thank you and God bless.

I saw the hottest girl with an apple-shaped butt on the beach Saturday evening and I prayed to Jesus to let me tasteth her divine fruit and, immediately after the prayer, she stopped, became almost zombie-like, and proceeded to pleasure me. I went to church the next day to give thanks.

wouldn't we as sinners still sin? would we just not sin as bad? how do we know if it is satan tempting us to sin or if it's us just sinning because it's our nature?

I was getting onto the freeway, moving pretty good with the traffic when all of a sudden the hood of my car blew up hitting my windshield so I couldn't see in front of me and knocking my rearview mirror onto the floor so I couldn't see behind me and twisting my side mirror so I couldn't see on the side of me. I knew not to slam on the brakes so I just left it in the hands of Jesus. And he guided me safely off to the side of the freeway, It felt like I was floating, because I was!

If not, I'll have your diced remains of a head in my freezer by tomorrow. God bless you all!
