Religion & Spirituality - 7 October 2006

I just read one answer, where an Athiest refered to Jesus as a fictional character. I know they think God is fictional and all, but isn't the fact that Jesus was a living, breathing human not up for debate? Isn't it a question of whether or not he was son of God?

Was this person right, is there no actual evidence that Jesus even existed?

I was raised in a Roman Catholic family in Northern Virginia. I can remember very clearly going to Catholic school, learning about the faith and receiving the sacraments of communion, confession and confirmation.

At the time, some 30 years ago, it all seemed very spiritual and holy, and I thought I was somehow fortunate, especially receiving my first communion. In the Catholic religion, we were taught that the communion host is the actual body and blood of Jesus Christ. When I took that first communion host in my mouth and swallowed, I thought, “I have Jesus in my stomach, and I have to be very good and not commit any sins.”

As I got older, I could feel myself drifting away from Catholicism and any religious belief in general. I was still attending Mass every Sunday, but it was a burden to go and give even one hour a week........

They actually believe they are helping the people where help is not even wanted?
We make them roads and mark them with our graves and help the heather sullen people half devil half child! Bunch of B/S!
Should i barge into your house to show you how you should live your life?
What makes them think they are qualified? It's the same thing a non-existent superiority complex!

I'm just curious... to you believers, have you ever met a real-life atheist? I've met many Christians and when I've told them I'm a non-believer, I usually get, "but... you're too NICE to be an atheist." or "I never would have guessed you are not a believer!" Just what, exactly, would you think an atheist is? Horns? A tail? A Pentagram on our foreheads? Sacrificing small animals to the midnight moon?

why can't they focus on being spiritual instead of always looking to convert or kill the others? Are they really that insecure about their religion being the truth that they always need conversions to keep it strong?

If you had a serious disease that could kill you and could only pick one of the following treatments, which would you pick:

1. Daily Prayer from a church of your choice.

2. Treatment from one of the most respected medical doctors in the world. However, this doctor happens to be a satanist and he gives all his thanks and praise to the devil for his great success.

3. Magic Potion from an african witch Doctor.

Ok here is how to creat an atheist. Just teach them to practice the atheism mantra. It goes like this.

LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA

THERE IS NO GOD. THERE IS NO GOD. THERE IS NO GOD. THERE IS NO GOD.

LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA

Have them do this while putting their fingers in their ears. If they keep saying it often enough and refuse to listen to God speaking to them in many ways; through His people, through His word, through His creation, through the eye witness accounts of those who witnessed His miracles POOF You've got an ahteist.

This is for people who believe in the Christian God...at least some faith, like, intellectual faith of God, it's okay if you sometimes doubt God...let's all think of something to pray about...it can be anything, ANYTHING as long as it's not evil. What would you like to pray about??? Let's all pray together!!!

It says: "Do not make a sculpted image or any likeness of what is in the heavens above..."

This is usually understood to refer to any likenss of God, as well. But what about God incarnate? Cathlics and Protestants have historically disagreed on this, but I am not sure.

why do people keep saying life begins at conception. Biologically, life is continuous and began some 3.5 billion years ago. The sperm and egg are every bit as alive 1 microsecond before conception as they are 1 microsecond after. What's all this "life begins at conception" nonsense, when it clearly began long long before conception?

Do you think they are to attract a mate like many evolutionists do? Doesn't this seem superficial? Wouldn't God want you to like someone for who they are, not what they look like? Don't tell me that they are for breast feeding. Many animals breast feed without having boobs year round, so don't tell me they are for soley for breast feeding.
