Religion & Spirituality (Society & Culture) - 4 October 2006

As some know, I've been dealing with a serious question about my faith in Love:
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AplCsXwX8U2KXAyRXd528TZIzKIX?qid=20061001051119AAXjvuV

I've been looking at how others view Love, and now I'm wondering if I've had it all wrong, and Love is trying to steer me right.

Bear in mind the following does not reflect the views of all, and certainly do not reflect my previous beliefs. Now I'm not so sure if I'm called upon to change my beliefs to more closely match the following:

Love is not about "you, you, you"...it's about "me me me".
Love is not about trusting you...it's about using you to get what I want.
Love is not about truth and honesty...they just get in the way of getting what I want.
Love is not about giving, it is about getting.
Love is not about worrying about you...if I use you up I'll just get another lover (there are so many to replace you).

why don,t you people think that you should be muslim?

You will be asked 3 quetions right after when you die. (1) Who is your God? (2) What is your religion? Than prophat Muhammad(P.B.U.H) will be brought in front of you and angels will ask you. ( 3) Do you know this person? If you knew these answers you will be in peace, you will be given a portion of heaven but if you won,t be to answer you are gonna go straight to the hell. So think before that time comes. Don,t tell than nobody told us.

is there a war against faith, emotion and humanity, what exactly is the war on 'terror'?

what besides the struggle for Power, Contol and Authority is this war on terror? the only thing afraid is the people on the recieving side of media being scared into mass anxiety and hysteria thanks to our media being used as a propaganda tool. How can you fight a war against an emotion or an idea? does it become a war against humanity if we try and fight off a natural emotion by removing those that politicaly and religiously oppose us, even our own citizens? Aren't we free to worship in the US as we wish so long as it's lawful? Has laws been changed to not protect all religions now? How can this war on terror be used against certain faiths? wouldn't some call it a 'spiritual war'? Can we combat this with love and intelligence, or wise decisions or by simply standing by and seeing more 'shock and awe' used to decimate a nation that did not threaten or attack the US?

What if religious experiences were really brain damage?

Read this article in today's NYT about brain centers affected by stroke, schizophrenia or implanted sensors. Doesn't it point up the fact that most, if not all, of the bible is based on mental health challenges to the people involved?

http://www.nytimes.com/2006/10/03/health/psychology/03shad.html?ei=5087%0A&em=&en=9c59d730d2bab312&ex=1160107200&pagewanted=all

Here's an excerpt:

They are eerie sensations, more common than one might think: A man describes feeling a shadowy figure standing behind him, then turning around to find no one there. A woman feels herself leaving her body and floating in space, looking down on her corporeal self.

Such experiences are often attributed by those who have them to paranormal forces.

But according to recent work by neuroscientists, they can be induced by delivering mild electric current to specific spots in the brain. In one woman, for example, a zap to a brain region called the angular gyrus resulted in a sensation that she was hanging

Let's play "Just suppose" Suppose a friend or loved one who is a believer is dying or gravely ill

Would you feel compelled to take away their faith before they die? I mean if you believe God is a lie and we are better off with the truth wouldn't you still feel compelled to enlighten them?
