If you believe in the Catholic church and Jesus comes to you in a vision and says "stem cell research is okay" what do you believe.

Jesus may want to let you in on some great truth that the Catholic church opposes. Or it may be the devil in disguise.

The thing is what if it's Jesus for real and the church is wrong? Do you spit in Jesus's face because the church tells you to. Do you call Jesus the Devil because his holy and true words conflict with man's interpretation of man's written word?

And say it's not stem cells but something less controversial
"women priests" or something else.

What would you think and how could you be sure?

If you answer that religion holds all the truth and so unless the apparition agrees 100% with church doctrine it's the devil. Then how was the early church supposed to believe a word Jesus said, cause it went against jewish doctrine?

Fellow non-believers, I know you must be as frustrated as I am at Christians who assume we know nothing about Christianity because we haven't read their holy book. I've read the bible multiple times, and it still hasn't convinced me to convert. How about you guys?

My friend told me that I should never light red (or black) candles in my house because they give off negative energy. Is this true?

It has been reported recently people are finding so called images of this person everywhere. From a knot in some wood to chocolate. If no one has every seen her how can they say it's her? Like photo's of Jesus. It 's not possible to know what he looked/lookes like. It's scary so many people are so, well, you fill in the blank.

Any one have a chapter and verse on that? If you think I am just making that up to offend Christians who admire the great healing work that Benny Hinn profits from, watch the video for yourself. Is this a new doctrine for the latter day church? Something stinks about it, if you ask me. Maybe you more spiritual types can explain.

"Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him? But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering." -- 1 Corinthians 11:14-15

Fact: Hitler would be in Heaven if he repented and did not commit suicide (and we only have Stalin's word that Hitler commited suicide).

Fact: Revelation 21:8 states "the ...unbelieving...shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brmstone: which is the second death."

Fact: Jews do not believe in the divinity of Jesus.

Want to join a religion that allows Hitler into Heaven while condemning all his Jewish victims to Hell?

I have dreams sometimes and sometimes those dreams actually happen. I mean the dreams play out in real life EXACTLY how they played out when I dreamt them. I am not having bizzare dreams or anything but say I was talking to my friend at a specific location, at a specific time, and about a specific topic I would stop talking because it would occure to me that I dreamt this incidence. And even in the dream I dreamt that i stopped talking to explain to my friend that i dreamt about dreaming our conversation. It is extremey weird. And I'm not the only person that I know that this happens to. It also happens to my brother and my close friends. And don't say that i am having de ja vu. De ja vu is when you feel like you have been somewhere or felt you talked to somebody before
For me I dream the situation and then later i realize that i have dreamt about it. And it's not like i don't remember having the dream in the first place and then all of a sudden i remember out of the blue.

I am always told to refer to Richard Dawkins, and yet mocked when I tell evolutionists to read the Bible. You guys really have no clue.

This is no joke. I dreamt that a bright figure was talking to me and it told me to fill one shoe with rasberry slushy and dunk a hamster in it. People say God should never be questioned but I'm not sure what purpose this serves other than to annoy the hamster. Do you think I should do it or not?

How much of your faith reflects an emotional contentment or a sense of connection with a faith community?

Or the corollary, even if some of the teachings slide a bit beyond rational thought, are you willing to overlook these tidbits because the emotional fulfillment seems worth it?

How are they so well versed and chummy with evil that they know him better than God? If you say anything that isn't qoutable from a holy book they are quick to set you straight, yet they non stop do that themselves. Out of body is of the devil, UFO's are of the devil, some other religion is of the devil, but they can't "script it" like they do their personal beliefs. Why oh why?

"And when he was gone forth into the way, there came one running, and kneeled to him, and asked him, Good Master, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life? And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God." [Mark 10:18]
