Religion & Spirituality - 15 September 2006

I am not sure if you are aware how social programs were corrupted by 'elements', 'social terrorists' to attack fathers, mothers, parents, by using half-truths,(ie truths that are parts of the truth), and social programs dealing with 'spousal abuse' were expolited by 'social terrorists' to attack the family by dividing it , again with half-truths...?

Well this is called a paradoxical effect.

Now the question is Aids and Aids funding being manipulated to promote 'the business' of Aids...?

Did you know there is alot of money in non-profit ?

Truth is subjective and depends on our perspective and interpretation. Fact is objective and does not rely on perspective nor interpretation.

Example: I have a friend who has the ugliest couch I have ever seen. It's hideous. It has too many cushions and is uncomfortable to sit on. That is my version of the truth. She however tells everyone about the great deal she got on the most gorgeous couch she has ever seen. She loves all the cushions and that it is easy to clean. That is her truth. Neither of these opinions are fact. The fact is that it is a couch with 6 cushions and it is covered in vinyl.

Our perception and interpretation is the key and the reason for the difference in "truth". Of course this applies to any and all aspects of our lives including religion. A good deal of the time "truth" is nothing more than a glorified opinion. So which is more important to you?

If muslims want others to respect islam this is what they will have to do,

denounce the unholy lifestyle of the prophet

condemn all acts of terror

respect non muslims living in islamic nations, and stop raping non muslim women and converting them by force to islam

stop bragging that islam is the greatest and only true religion

free muslim woman and stop oppresing them

welcome outside means of understanding god as well

i know that most will attack me for this, but the truth can never be supressed.
what do you think?

A very loud, unattractive, mean-acting woman walks into Wal-Mart with her two kids in tow, screaming obscenities at them all the way through the entrance.
The Wal-Mart Greeter says, "Good morning and welcome to Wal-Mart .... Nice children you've got there - are they twins?"
The ugly woman stops screaming long enough to say, "Hell no they ain't, the oldest one, he's 9 and the younger one, she's 7. Why the hell would you think they're twins?........ Do you really think they look alike?"
"No", replies the greeter, "I just couldn't believe you got laid twice!"


was she a good Greeter?

The pope was quoting from a recorded conversation between a 14th Christian emperor and a Muslim cleric. In the quote was a bit how the teachings of Mohammed are evil and inhuman because of spreading his faith by the sword. Now the Muslims are all riled up, calling the pope all kinds of names, and demanding an apology. What do they call Christians, Jews, Hindus, atheists? Why is it acceptable for them to condemn other beliefs, or lack thereof? And lets face it, it is evil and inhuman when you kill ppl because they refuse to accept your beliefs. It is evil and inhuman when you blow ppl up because some pedophile over a thousand years ago said it was what God wanted. Why should they act the victim when other ppl speak out against that type of mind-set?

Why is it so many religious people automatically assume that an Atheist has lower morals and such? According to research, Christians generally don't trust Atheists. Why is that?

Why is it bad to demand evidence to support a belief? Why is it bad to not believe in some stupid little book that's full of plotholes, contradictions, intolerance, and stories that belong in the children's section?

Fellow Christians,

Consider for a minute that you are being given an opportunity to give future Christians some encouragement. At some point in the future, many Believers will face a choice of either accepting the Mark of the Beast or being beheaded for their faith and possibly tortured.

If you could give them one piece of advice, how would you encourage them to prepare to endure this time of trial and refuse the mark?
