Did you ever think you are being controlled also..? I know I am not being controlled by anyone,I am free..I freely gave my life to my father, to allow him to do his will which when I was in sin I was not doing so great..I would suffer depression,stress and tons of anger..I am free from all of that now and it feels good to wake up and not have guilt in my heart of you I have hurt..

For example, the difference between Christianity and Pastafarianism, there is a Christian Bible that is sold at bookstores, there is a Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster sold at bookstores.

What makes one persons faith the correct one, if both faiths have no empirical evidence to make it so absolutely that all human beings would believe?

6 Their cobwebs are useless for clothing;
they cannot cover themselves with what they make.
Their deeds are evil deeds,
and acts of violence are in their hands.

7 Their feet rush into sin;
they are swift to shed innocent blood.
Their thoughts are evil thoughts;
ruin and destruction mark their ways.

8 The way of peace they do not know;
there is no justice in their paths.
They have turned them into crooked roads;
no one who walks in them will know peace

22 years old. Baptized in the Mormon church at 8. Never really active in church. Should I embrace the church and act like I believe it's real and true even though I think it's probably all a sham?

7 Let the wicked forsake his way
and the evil man his thoughts.
Let him turn to the LORD, and he will have mercy on him,
and to our God, for he will freely pardon.

8 "For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,"
declares the LORD.

9 "As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts.

Cause in church, they keep saying,

Our Father, who art in heaven, Harold be thy name,

And does he really like painting?

Let's face it, we cannot control any other peomrson's behavior and it's commonplace to blame others for the problems in this board (trolls, nasty comments, nasty posts, etc) and it results in a lot of anger, frustration, nasty comments, and makes this one of the most unpleasant places on the Yahoo!Answers board.

All we can control is our behavior and how we react to others.

My promise to you, is that if a question is something where I might answer in anger, I will ignore that post so I don't contribute to the problems by making a nasty post.

What about you?

What suggestions do you have to make this a better place to be?

I see lots of questions here questioning Jesus' sexual preferences. I also see a lot of people give angry answers to those questions.

I truly can't understand that. Wasn't the message of Jesus is His words? I don't judge the words from my gay friends differently than I judge the words of my straight friends.

So, why does it matter if Jesus was gay ?

I am learning to fast for the first time. Trying a half day fast first. Just wanna hear your experience in fasting. Non-muslims need not answer this question.

In the Christian faith, we would call this walking in love, where we do something good for another person, or we might call it doing good works. In the Christian religion even giving a cup of water in God's name is rewarded in heaven (Mark 9:41) if it is given in sincerity rather than for "look at me and how good I am.".

If you are from a different belief system, what would be your basis for doing good works, and is there a specific term for that good behavior?

Atheists...did you know that there is a group within you that are giving you a very very bad name. They mock and blaspheme and incite hatred towards you by their not giving us the respect as believers that you want as atheists ? Did you know that you are suffering because of their behavior ? I was wondering if you appreciate that bad name they are giving you ?

Seriously I have to honestly say that out of all the other categories on Yahoo Answers, the Religion & Spirituality category displays the highest number of hateful, ignorant, narrow-minded questions and answers of any subject. Why can't people accept everyones different beliefs and try to share knowledge and learn through mature intellectual discussion? Everyone seems to be constantly attacking each other and generally saying rude, ignorant and hateful things about one another.... Athiests attacking Christians, Christians attacking athiests... and every kind of religion and spirituality attacking each other. People are even attacking evolutionary biology or using it to try and disprove religious beliefs... what proof is there that a God didn't create evolution? and where do people think that the theory of evolution tries to disprove the existence of God/s etc??? Evolution has nothing to do with religion OR spirituality, it is science.... Why are people so hateful here??

Hello, just wondering if any of us are still out here. Are you all excited on the new campaign coming out? I am. Have you been watching the news lately. Scary isn't it... Yikes.

The power of prayer has been proven to help people (the person the prayer is for)...in this case it seems that the good intentions of others or good energy helps the person in need. Do we discredit our ability to help others by not BELIEVING we can?
