Religion & Spirituality - 15 September 2006

Act with disbelief if someone were to say "My wife is pregnant, and she says she's a virgin", when your entire faith is based on someone saying that very thing 2000 years ago?

I'm not saying that Jesus wasn't born of Immaculate Conception, because that is not what I'm questioning. What I'm questioning is why true believers would not at least wonder if this is not the second coming you were promised, and instead automatically assume they have been sleeping around.

I don't want to have to learn too much or spend too much time going to a church, or whatever. I want an easy religion. Here's your chance to sell your religion to a willing convert, convince me.

That we can directly see or experience today.

I tend to think that the ones I know were actually influenced by the people following the religion and not God, but still I want to know.

Thank you.

Would you still consider yourself a Christian, and would you still follow the teachings of Christ?

I asked this question in biology, and got no creationist answers...so maybe this is a better forum?

According to creationists, apes and humans are different "kinds". At this link there is a picture of 14 skulls...1 is a modern ape, 1 is a modern human skull. What are the other skulls - ape, or human? How do you draw the line?

I don't know much about either of those two faiths but I am highly interested in learning and following one of the two. They seem to be more about spiritulism and philosphy than the typical dogma of most other religions. I feel that much more can be gained from these two beliefs.

Is it that you truly don't believe? Is it that what is asked of you, you don't want to give, or you don't want to do? Is it just assenine what some religious ask for? I'm sorry but I do not believe that any GOD would condone war for anyone. God may say die for me, but I don't beleive he would ever, ever say KILL for me.

I believe, but I believe because I choose to. People who don't believe, well you have that right too, but why is it that everyone must always fight over this? This is war too you know...to argue and fight is a type of war. So why not lay down the swords people instead of all this craziness and hatred? Perhaps even the worst extremists in the Muslim religions would eventually even settle down. All they want is to be left alone too. But America tries to shove it's ways down their throat and is only aggrevating it all.

OK I covered a lot more than I intended to here but it is all cause and effect that has led us here. Thoughts?

2 Thess. 4:8 Then indeed the 'lawless one' will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will do away with by the spirit of his mouth and bring to NOTHING by the manifestation of his presence/coming.

1Peter 4:17 It is the appointed time for the judgment to begin with the house of God.

Rev. 11:1-13...these two prophets tormented those dwelling on the earth...and in that hour a great earthquake occurred, and a tenth of the city fell... and the rest became frightened and gave glory to God.

Rev. 14:12 Here is where it means endurance for the holy ones, those who observe the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.

It gets really really old. No one will even consider the other person's viewpoint and worse, is antagonistic to the other viewpoint and the person who holds it. I am through with this infantile crap on Yahoo! answers.

Life is swept along,
next-to-nothing its span.
For one swept to old age
no shelters exist.
Perceiving this danger in death,
one should drop the world's bait
and look for peace.

-Samyutta Nikaya II, 19
