Religion & Spirituality - 14 September 2006

I became the official religious leader of Disneyism, and now I need a sacred book. What should I name it? How many chapters should it contain? Should I include quotes form Disney movies in it? I want your opinions, and you may give me extra tips for this book, and you shall be my faithful follower. QUACK!

I had a talk with a believer earlier. They said God gave them the strength to make changes and fix problems in their life. They had the will but not the power. Jesus gave them the power they said.

My question is how come some people (i.e. atheists, agnostics) seem to have the power on their own to fix their own problems while others need to turn to God or Jesus for assistance?

I think the Christian is the one who looks at the peanut butter and gives it a taste. With that feeling, he knows it isn't jelly. There is no brainwashing. We decide what to believe just like you do.

The agnostic, on the other hand, turns it over, looks at it, sticks his fingers in it but is still too stubborn (I don't want to imply stupid) to decide if it is jelly or peanut butter.

Taste the peanut butter, friends. Then you'll know. And you won't be so hungry.

Did I stretch the metaphor too far?

BLess you

When in all actuality, the believers should be glad we are hear to at least listen to what they have to say? In a way, we are inviting you to change our hearts by participating. You should rejoice at the opportunity to save me, not shun me. And I am listening, I'm not buying, but I'm listening

Disclaimer: The Jesus I reffer to is my mexican gardener. Before you damn me to hell please notice that I made no refference to ANY other Jesus. If you do not know your religion well enough to be able to tell the difference between a Mexican who smells and a dude that "lived" 2000 years ago then by all means show how unintelligent you are by answering!

Every person I've met who believes in God were told about God first. Kind of like you don't know language until your are taught (no one is born knowing English). By the nature of God as I understand it, you should be able to achieve belief and faith without any influence. First, is my understanding correct? Second, has anyone ever believed in God without influence?

I don't want this to be a debate of existence. Also, don't bring up the fact that someone had to be the first to believe, since you could argue they were making it up.

or is it simply the neural activity preparing the body for death?

The most common similarity of NDE's is the feeling of peace, tranquility, spirituality, and oneness with all. This occurrence has been discovered to be associated with the release of endorphins as well as reactions between the right and left superior parietal lobe. The right portion of this area of the brain is known to be responsible for the sense of physical space and body awareness. The left portion of the parietal lobe is responsible for the awareness of the self. During an NDE neural activity in these areas shuts down. The result of this is an inability for the mind to have distinction between the self and non-self. However, other aspects of the brain are still functioning and thoughts are occurring. These other thoughts are believed to be associated with the visions perceived.

so what do you think?

Atheists don't want christians preaching in their comfort zone, so why is it important enough to them/you to post ridiculous questions in this catagory?

Now that I got you attention!

How many of the bible thumpers on here do you think live in a doublewide, watch Jerry Springer, chew tobacco and screw their sisters?

How many of them drive around in beat up Ford F-150s that has a gun rack on the back and a bunch of inbred dogs chilling out inside it?

These damn biblethumpers on here are giving rednecks a bad name.

Do you agree?

Discuss!

20. And (remember) when Moses said unto his people: O my people ! Remember Allah's favour unto you, how He

placed among you Prophets, and He made you Kings, and gave you that (which) He gave not to any (other) of (His)
creatures.
21. O my people! Go into the holy land which Allah hath ordained for you. Turn not in flight, for surely ye turn back
as losers:
22. They said: O Moses! Lo! a giant people (dwell) therein, and lo! we go not in till they go forth from thence. When
they go forth, then we will enter (not till then).
23. Then outspake two of those who feared (their Lord, men) unto whom Allah had been gracious: Enter in upon them
by the gate, for if ye enter by it, lo! ye will be victorious. So put your trust (in Allah) if ye are indeed believers.
24. They said: O Moses! We will never enter (the land) while they are in it. So go thou and thy Lord and fight! We will
sit here.
25. He said: My Lord! I have control of none but myself and my brother, so distinguish between

Do you believe it is possible to communicate effectively with the God Who Reigns Supreme Over All without going to church or being led by pastors, priests or any other religious leaders?

Do you believe we have an infinitely wise God Who has preprogrammed us to know all we need to know about Him and do all He expects of us?

Do you believe the teachings attributed to Jesus, for the most part are very powerful and worthy of emulation but he is not a Deity and that the Bible is a phenomenal teaching tool but was not intended to be taken literally?

Can we not just accept that some people don't believe and don't have faith and let it be. I don't like trying to be converted all the time and being called a bad person because I don't believe. The real question is if I don't believe, what am I supposed to do to change that? I'm not seeing any visions or lightning bolts. I've been to church, I've read the bible, and it's not happening. Don't give me that open your heart or let God find you stuff. What does that even mean? Speak in real terms with real answers.
