Very similar or indeed exactly the same as having one of those imaginary friends that young children often have?
Is praying to a deity expecting an imaginary friend type of entity to fix up your problems rather then facing up to them and dealing with them in a rational manner? Is this not childlike and naive?

We liberated Iraq from a dictator that lived supremely wealthy, while the common people starved, recieving no benefits as a community from the oil money!
For them to act so ungrateful and to call us occupiers!
We shed our blood and use our tax dollars and grieve as a Nation at war and they = muslims (see the best answer chosen on this post, below by clicking it) say we are not doing enough for them over there...
HOW DARE THEY!!!!! The sunni muslims and the shitte muslims are killing each other palestinian style with bombs on the street! Does anyone else see that to talk about muslims is to talk about politics as they have Islamic Countries and there is no seperation of church and state...(Not that I go for seperation of church and state.) But their religion and politics go hand and hand.
And they wonder why we good "people of the book" talk bad about them!?

Seems to me if RADICAL Moslems were more interested in living than dying everyone would get on with each other a whole lot better. Why dont they live for their country instead of dying for it? I am reading the Koran at the moment and there is a Hell of a lot of flames,killing, revenge,etc. Cant stand it.....MAKES ME SHIVER WITH FEAR. I coud'nt believe all that stuff.

My computer says the e-mail will not go back to him even though I am just replying to his message. It says that his address has not been confirmed?? It was in response to a religious question--that is why I put it in this catagory.

I've been born and raised as a born again christian and because once you are married wives should follow their husbands and therefore thats how I became mormon. What frustrates me is I don't fully believe in the mormon teachings however out of love for my husband I just attend anyway.

Wiccans and Pagans what do you believe? I am seriously curious and do not mean to offend. I know that you have a Naturalistic approach but that is about it.
Peace Be With You,

You ever wonder if what we believe to be true is what really happens. Why would our awareness change?

Shouldn't it be Jesus shed his blood for you? that seems to be the big deal, the PRICE THAT WAS PAID, but I shed more blood than he did when I stepped on a huge piece of glass yesterday, really. He should've been prone and stabbed in the stomache or something similar, right?

My reading means do not condemn. That does not mean do not descriminate. Other wise where does reproof and correction come from. There is a big difference between judging and condemning get it right, we are expected to descriminate our activities. This business of only in your own church is also a deep error. There is only one Body in God's eyes. If I'm wrong give me the scripture, but read it in context first

I was going to flush it down the toilet - would that be bad?- would I go to hell?

I originally was gonna put some peanut butter on it and have a snack, - but my friend said that would be offensive.

Are they just doing their thing or are they recriting like scientology? I think it is more dangerous when a group is recruiting than if they are leaving people alone. What is with this group Madona is into? Is it dangerous or are they harmless? Does this faith offend the regular mainstream Jewish faith? What other groups is it offending? I read the wikpedia article, but need more info. Is this a hollywood fad or are they pushing it on others?

Why do some people on here say that good atheists will go to heaven (the place that they say does not exist). I'm not judging anyone because anyone can be saved, but if someone rejects the existence of heaven and God, and never accepts His gift of salvation, how can they go to heaven. Why would they even want to, since they say it doesn't exist??????

This idea makes absolutely no sense to me.

One thing that I have learned in this section is that you can't take religion seriously. I have even laughed at the stupidities some atheists post here with the purpose of making fun of Christians. I obviously find certain things unacceptable but that's another story. I almost chocked on my own saliva from laughing so hard.

O.K. this has been bothering me for quite a while. So Jesus came and washed away our sins, but why do women still pay for Eve's sin. This is just one example I know that there are many others.

Trinity Broadcasting Network, has $341,000,000.00 in cash and investments on hand. According to:
http://www.ministrywatch.com/ .

This nonpartisan ministry watchdog group has placed a warning about donating to this haven for multimillionire televangelists. TBN have begged so much that Jan Crouch, in a widely distrubuted, and very disturbing internet video, asked for GRANDMOTHERS TO SEND TBN THEIR GROCERY MONEY. It's on YouTube.com

With $341,000,000.00 cash and investments...will you be giving to TBN during their next beg-a-thon?

PS-I give money to my local church, and to those in need. I don't believe in subsidizing multimillionaire televangelists that have 341 million dollars in the bank.

I just saw a question where a guy says: "And our lives got limited to 120 after the flood". How very accurate! I just saw the other day a woman who lived till 123. If this is a divine thing, then it should either be always true (No one can live more than 120), or to give another VERY exact number!
