Religion & Spirituality - 1 October 2006

I was raised Catholic, but have not practiced in years. I was wondering what is the difference in the churches? Do I have to change my religion to get married in his church? I really love him with all my heart, I just don't really understand his religion at all. Someone told me his is one that feels the Holy Spirit, and falls to the floor? I really don't get that one at all. I have so many questions on his whole religion, can someone please help! I might have somemore questions later , too. TTYL

am going to ask enough questions to delete all my points. There are only 117 of them so it shouldn´t be too hard. This isn´t a question, this is what Yahoo answers is turning into, self-righteous journalists, vagabonds of the information world...getting tired of all the philosophy, the answers that people give are really believed to be correct, when there is not a single correct thought, just sanctimonius idealism. After a while, and it´s already suggesting itself now, Yahoo Answers will be more like Yahoo Statements, people giving there opinion in a way that is assumed to reflect the world, its supposed soul, yet it remains simply as an opinion...yes, this has turned into a self-righteous questionstatement.

Without being too judgemental - they really so look silly. I mean I can't imagine Jesus walking around in stuff like that.

hiya. i would consider myself a devout catholic but i don't agree with some of its teachings. i'm sick of reading from a script when i don't agree with whats written. yesterday in mass the local school kids were presented as the next to make first communion. i thought lovely they might be scared but they are part of the biggest family in the world. i can't remember which part of mass it was but the priest asked us we pray for this and that and the given response was "we do" i read from the same page as everyone else untill mother church "scripted" of course asked me! to pray for something i did'nt believe in, everybody said "we do" i on the otherhand said "no!".
then when it came time to offer each other the sign of peace i did'nt give the proper response i instead either nodded or said hello. i know its against all off christs teachings but isn't it time we werent forced to give a cursory handshake. it means nothing if not meant!.

psychological damage caused by christian beliefs?
Teaching small children that they will go to hell for all eternity and be burnt by God for not following Him, clearly can have a terrible psychological impact on people(me for example). It should be the responsibility of the state to protect children.The state allows it to be taught to the impressionable. Should it be the height of the states responsibility to acknowledge that there is no evidence for such a place and it should NOT be taught to people because it will clearly lead many people to lives of depression? And it surely cannot be hidden behind the guise of freedom of religion?
what do you think. Take time to answer I will read ALL answers. Just want some feedback.

cried at mass?. i'm talking about mass in general not weddings or funerals. yesterday my eyes welled up and i'm a big strong bloke. any time i think about christ on the cross i get close to blubbing. yesterday it hit me big time. i had to reach for a hanky my girlfriend noticed but said nothing. i asked her when we got home "did you see me about to cry?" she said "yep everybody does at one stage". so does everybody at least once cry in mass?, i have no problem with crying in mass (as long as nobody sees me do it). more questions to follow, regardless of catholic protestant jew or muslim.

My girlfriend who I have been with have also said this about me the other night after sex. The people on Yahoo Answers have also said this through my pure, holy questions. The girl that I am seeing also mentions this to me when we were making out at chruch.

I shouldn't let it get to my head but I feel so proud to be compared to our holy father, Jesus Christ. God bless all Christian souls. We all have a place in Christiandom.

Mohamud said that Gabrael came to me with a wrap and said this is gift from God for you and I saw Ayesha in the wrap so I was sure that God want me to marry her.If any sensible person of 57year see a Dream.Vision or cryptic message that a daughter of his friend of 7 year is shown ,surely and surely the person will take it as a gift of daughter,then How come Mohamud interpreted his dream other way around.

I usually buy her good quality presents (as she does me), but lately she hasn't been treating me with the respect I deserve. She keeps making sarcastic comments about my clothes and passes judgment. I really don't feel she 'deserves' anything from me this year, but I might feel guilty if I don't. What should I do? I bought a car recently that took me 8 years to save up for and when I showed her a photo of it she looked surprised and just said, "Oh, a red one". I really just want to get her a card this year and that's it, because I haven't liked the way she has treated me of late. Do I sound un-christian-like?

I am a very devout Christian guy, but recently through my truthful questions about cheating on my girlfriend with a very good Christian girl, I have been completely cruxified for my behavoir. Now I know how Christ my holy father felt.

I admit I have not been the best Christian lately, but Christ did say sex is ok. Our holy father has done worse than me as he had sex with a hooker. I would never do that! Jesus was kind enough to not judge Maria Magdalena because if he had he wouldn't touch her.
Relationships has so many dilemmas. I wish both girls understand what I'm going through!

None of Jesus' disciples witnessed the crucifixion. They "all fled" and "deserted" Jesus. This further confirms Islam's claims.

Taken from the above verses: "These things happened so that the scripture would be fulfilled: 'Not one of his bones will be broken,' and, as another scripture says, 'They will look on the one they have pierced.' (From the NIV Bible, John 19:36-37)"

"he protects all his bones, not one of them will be broken. (From the NIV Bible, Psalm 34:20)"

Notice in Psalm 34:20, it says that GOD Almighty will protect "all his bones". So, not even an inch from his bones will be damaged according to the Scriptures.

As you might know, the crucifixion back then was done by nailing to the cross the hands and the ankles or the feet. If GOD Almighty was going to protect Jesus' body that not even a single bone will be broken, then how would the crucifixion and the death of Jesus be possible then?!
