Religion & Spirituality - 25 August 2006

I've noticed many college aged Jewish girls wear glasses (especially those black ones that are not very flattering).

Why don't they get contacts, is this against their religion? I'm serious and I like Jewish girls and boys I not racist.

I know the Eden story, so don't preach that to me. But I guess my point is why am I being held reponsible for some supposed ancient ancestor's deed?

Ok, God is watching over us all..he is our father...
what kind of father watches his children get raped?
what kind of father watches his children get murdered?
what kind of father lets his children commit suicide?
what kind of father watches his children fight everyday?
what kind of father watches his chidren die everyday in wars based on greed?
what kind of father lets his younger children become out of control and commit crimes un thought of from a little kid?
what kind of father lets people go to war and die in his name?

ok...i'm probably going to get a lot of hate answers..but i don't care...
i'm not religious and i probably never will be.
i was just wondering what kind of father does this?
i realize he can't watch over everyone, but don't u think he should watch over the ones that need to be watched over? don't u think he should reach out to the ones that need guidance?
just a question.

I'm not trying to insult anyone, just curious as to why you accept your current reading strategy. Just a couple of examples: 1. Matt., Mark, and Luke: Jesus is crucified after Passover, in John, he is crucified on Passover - 2. In Genesis 1, humankind is created last, in Genesis 2, created before vegetation and animals, 3. Mark, a young man sits in Jesus' tomb, in John 2 angels are there. There are others of course, but I'll stop there. I understand that these are just details, but if God allows the authors to err on the details, isn't also possible that the authors made mistakes on larger theological assertions?

I mean is it really mentioned in Quran or in Hadeeth coz from what I read they didn't specifically say that women must cover their hair. I get from what I read that we should wear decent clothes that won't make us look sexy and that's all..I mean i'm a muslim and I wear decent clothes. sometimes I see women in veil but their clothes are not decent at all..they wear tight clothes and cover their hair so what's the point?so I guess the point is to look decent in any way u think is right not to look like a hooker?am I right..plz someone correct me if i'm wrong??

You can claim faith all day long but facts are we did not live back then and humans lie and manipulate history because we have done so at least as far back as the recorded documents go and that's a fact. Just because a person said that transcripts or documents are thousands of years old don't mean I trust the source given the human track record of manipulation of the public. All it takes is for several key "trusted sources" to say things are authentic and then release this info to the public and then bam you have your manipulated believers right off the back. I don't trust any of those sources not only because it has the human element involved but also because they have too much control over the data before it is made public. A somewhat modern example is that science fiction writer starting Scientology. Most call it malarkey today but if it last a thousand years that could be your next big religion. To sum it up, organized MANIPULATION at its finest.

Imagine if you wake up somewhere you have never see, would you go like "OK, I am here" and never try to find out why you did wind up there in first place. Wouldn't that be abnormal. You'd try to find out what is going on here, wouldn't you.
But if you look at your life now, you go to work/school & do things everyday without a sense of direction. You never think where all this is going to take you. We all know we have our end, our life is the most important thing we have, but we do not even think about it.

God chose Abel's gift over Cain's and basically told Cain "Yeah, next time bring me something good, vegetables suck." If this event had not occurred and God had not picked one sacrifice over the other, would they have lived happily ever after as brothers?

If you are not you don't need to go to this question just to dis Christians, because I know some people don't like.
I have seen people say some pretty bad stuff about others that don't believe what they do. I have seen some Christians say some things too, which is pretty sad.

God loves us all the same no matter what our race or region are.

God bless!!:D

How does or can one attain wisdom in his or her life since birth? What's your general understanding of wisdom? How would you interpret wisdom that is mentioned in the Bible?

Do I agree with every thing they say? No. Do I think they are white trash, country fools. No. Lest you people forget, ALL of the founding fathers of this country where Christians. Seems to me they did a pretty good job.

To Gays, lesbians, and bi's? Our world is at war, but for some that is the worst of their worries. I'm catholic and bi, yet I still walk into God's house feeling loved. Every day goes by faster and faster, more disrupted, and more reckless then ever before. Still no one is trying to slow it down, but instead they are trying to add to the flame fueling the speed more. Why does who a person chooses to love or go to bed with matter? For those of you who have the nerve to say that God hates Gays, Lesbians and even bi's, have you ever thought about why they are the way they are? I know several women that tried to be with men. What happened to them was not just them being unnhappy, but them getting beaten almost to death for a reason that some think is unnatural. I don't want to tell you to think a certain way. That isn't my job, but neither is it yours to tell people what God doesn't approve of. I just wish that one day we can look past our differences. Thanks for reading this.

Also that they miss out on life, have boring lives, etc.

This sterotype is not only false for MANY atheists but it's actually a better sterotype for religious drones in my opinion.

Accepting answers from ANYONE.

Would you believe in someone you don't know?
If he said that you don't really die, would you trust him?
I wouldn't.

I have very strong feeling for a woman, I met here at answers. My feeling are sometimes sad and sometime wonderfully in love. The sadness is because she is too young so, we will never be able to connect in a most wonderful way for love. When sad I become very insecure. I want to run the other way and not feel anything. We are both devoute christians, and when I'm happiest is when I feel connected throught the Holy Spirit, and Jesus is with us. I am drawn to her everyday and our only contact has been email and IM. It would be helpful for someone to help me, I need help from other christians who have passion for Christ. Thank you and love to all. Be Blessed!
