I posted this question:
If god is so forgiving, why does he stop forgiving when you die?
How could an all forgiving, all loving god, not forgive his son/daughters after they are dead. Does he have the power to watch his children burn for eternity. Does he have the power to give another chance, or forgive him for his sin? Why watch your children get tortured. I would not do that to my father and my father would not do that for me. He would trade places.

Out of 30+ comments not ONE person addressed my question. Why would god stop forgiving someone after they die. Every single one of you brainwashed weirdos just basically said Id better repent or its fire for me. or that "God is fair" The church must force that phrase down all of your throats "god is fair" . When people ask for your opinons they dont want to hear bible quotes. If you want to get across a message you have to see where the other persons coming from. duhh! Be a human and talk like you have your own soul.

What happened to Zeus and Thor and the Great White Spirit? How about Baal and Vishnu ?Did all the other Gods die or what? Surely civilized people had some manifestation of their existence too. Yahweh and Allah kill them all off in mortal combat?

They only thing they seem to follow is what all the others are doing. And they in turn are just following what everyone else is doing etc.

During Vatican II, the church put out Nostra Aetate, or "The Relation of the Church to Non-Christian Religions." This document is largely concerned wtih Catholic-Jewish relations, and definitely clears up a few issues: living Jews are not to be held accountable for Jesus' death, persecution of Jews is not OK, the Jews are to be recognized for their Biblical contributions, etc.

What I can't figure out for sure are the implications for Jews after death. Does this document imply that Jews will no longer automatically be condemned to hell? A lot of the language is lofty and vague, so I'm not sure...

Link to the Nostra Aetate document, hosted on the Vatican's website: http://www.vatican.va/archive/hist_councils/ii_vatican_council/documents/vat-ii_decl_19651028_nostra-aetate_en.html

I'm just curious as to the logic behind this.

Oh, and I'm not referring to premarital sex because we all know that's believed to be a sin. But why would sex between a married couple be anything less than beautiful?

It sounds like quite an incredible achievement to me, as in unbelievable.

Holloween is a Celtic and Druid festival of the Dead.Also Known as "Samhain". It Marks the Celtic New Year. New years Eve being October 31st and New years Day being November 1st. The Roman Catholic Church tried to drive away the forces behind Pagan Holidays by changing their meaning. They changed Nov. 1st to All Saints Day. Amound many other Holidays. Every Christian Holiday is on a Day that was originally a pagan holiday. The practices we do today, the way we celebrate are all rituals of pagan holidays. The Christian Holidays that replaced the Pagan Holidays are celebrated not on the days they actually represent but on the Pagan Holidays. They are therefore only a disguise. Pagan pracices are still being reinforced. Trick or Treat- what you are actually doing is wearing a costume to disguise yourself so the the dead spiritual world believed to be walking around these two days will not recognise you and trick you. ... Trick or Treat! Don't Partake of the Witch's Brew .It's Poison!

Can Jesus Christ really hear our prayers? I want so badly to believe, but I can't. I just can't do it. Can I trust in Christ?

How do we know that the Bible is a book to teach people how to be good, and not a book on how our leaders can dupe us?
