Religion & Spirituality - 28 September 2006

I'm asking for folks to help carry the burden of Terri Irwins' grief. I'm asking for daily prayers to be lifted up in her name. I can't do this alone. Who's with me here?

Please state your testamony. Christ Bless you.

Given that certain UK mosques have radical Imam's should the UK govt pass laws which could close radical mosques and schools? Should the Moslem council of UK be doing more to prevent these Imam's preaching hate?

So many people believe that their loved ones stay near them and watch over them, bestowing blessings on new babies, etc.

tongues in the church is wrong, and that once saved always saved(no repentance of sin or need for 4giveness is necessary)AFTER initiial salvation,
and believe the words of Jesus in the bible that MANY WILL GO TO HELL AND FEW TO HEAVEN.....APPLIES TO THE CHURCH WORLD ITSELF AS WELL AS THE UNBELIEVER?
REVELATION 21:8........is to ALL....who fall in this catagory.

plz help! My friend Susan is Muslim and wears hijab. She likes a non Muslim guy and I think he likes her. Anywayz in Islam intimate relationships are forbidden (no kissing, going to night dances etc.) She can talk on the internet and meet with him in public and maybe double date. Here's my question; would you guys give up the physical part of the relationship for the mental part? There's so many girls...would u waste your time on a girl like her when u cant even kiss outside marriage? Btw, she is pretty, smart, funny,white, cool etc. Thanks! Sorry this is a lil off subject but just answer ASAP.

Some religions believe that the garbled speech caused by speaking in tongues is demonically induced. What do you believe?

The idea that he had to rest prorves to me that man wrote the silly book , like all scams for profit. Another slice of realism. If your god knew that he was the one and only. Why have the first command say that thou shall have no other god but me. Was he insecure. NO those are words written by men, and xristians follow them like school children . Mother nature gives and nurtures life and will take it away,but she has something far greater then heaven instore for us. See you in the next level. Come that cerain date we will all rotate.

I live in Denmark, Europe, where religion plays next to no role in society. I sometimes read stories about atheists in the US who can't get jobs because they say they don't go to church at job interviews (even being ASKED if you go to church at a job interview in Denmark is unthinkable!) and being harassed for their belief (or lack thereof). I couldn't imagine myself living in a society where it was important to be a believer. I would hate it.

But, conversely, could you imagine living in a society where religion had no real place?

I live in Denmark in Europe, and the church attendance here is 2.5%. In other words, 975 out of every 1000 people do not attend church. As a Dane myself, I can tell you that the Danes do not substitute churchgoing for other kinds of religious activity. I personally don't know a single person who prays. People simply aren't religious at all.

I have never once been asked what church I go to, how I worship or anything like that. I can get asked "are you religious?" which is almost an embarrasing question - because what if the guy you are asking IS religious? That would be really awkward - because it's generally assumed that you're not.

Referring to the Bible in any kind of spiritual way is almost guaranteed to create an awkward silence in conversation. if you claim that God created the world, that evolution didn't happen because the Bible says otherwise, or that Adam and Eve really existed will cause people to think you are, well, weird.

What is your opinion about all this?

At least religious people are trying to "save" them... why should a atheist even care about other religions?

Simply pointing out someone's wrong doing or telling someone that you believe the Bible teaches against a certain action they are participating in, is not Judging, is it?

It is not about suicide, but about accepting death which has come to a loved one who had been suffering terribly. (my grandma)

Death is kind.
Like lover's wine,
Ever does it flow.

Life is cold.
Though worn and old,
We will not let it go.

Death is bliss.
Yet life we kiss --
We cling to what we know.

Come to me --
I will not flee.
Lay my fears below.

At first I thought why not have a movement for purity. But then I thought it might be a bit much, sort of like we need to have more humility about who we are. Still in this world we need to be more bold for Christ right ? So why not have a movement? Any how I eventually made up my mind but I still want to see what 'yall have to say about it.

I would like you to give me SOLID evidence that the Bible and God are not real. Not just a whim or a thought with no backing. i want actual PROOF. Think you are up to the challenge?

This is just a hypothetical question of course, so bear with me. What happens to a buddhist if the world as we knew it ceased to exist? A catastrophic event happens, such as a nuclear holocaust, or an asteroid crashing into earth. Now I confess my knowledge of Buddhism is miniscular at best, but one of the main beliefs in Buddhism is the belief in reincarnation, correct? So if there is no life form to reincarnate too, what happens to our "very subtle mind." Does it stay in the intermediate state? I live near a buddhist temple in San Francisco, and the question just came into my mind smoking outside while staring at the temple. Any thoughts?

there is no god. That they created humans thousands of years ago and can prove it. What would you say if you knew there was a committee set up in the world to intervene this communication and decide if the people of the world should hear this information?

He could just turn off the heat and light from the Sun, draw away our oxygen supply. He would bein the right ;and justly so.In order to achieve our goals, we don't care whom we injure and disregard, and GOD has been more abused or disregarded.

I was wondering about handfasting. It sounds like a beautiful ceremony. I was just wondering, is it a civil ceremony? I mean, if you do it, are you legally married in your state? Do you have to get someone who's state certified to perform it, and if so, what do they have to do to be officially recognized? Can anyone perform the ceremony, if it's only going to be symbolic and not legal?

I guess that's a bunch of questions. Sorry about that. =)
Thanks in advance for the info!
