Taken from ....Live Zetatalk Oct 7th 2006
We have stated that Jesus spoke to the common man in a manner they would understand, describing the current
Transformation of the Earth
into a home for those in the Service-to-Other
as a time when the meek would inherit the Earth,
a time when he (Jesus) as one in the Service-to-Other would return and live among them, and that this time would last 1,000 years.
This is not in conflict with what others have stated, as in our ZetaTalk description where reincarnation on Earth would not be allowed for those in the Service-to-Self, and the characteristics for those in the Service-to-Other or Service-to-Self. Jesus stated the 1,000 year span as this was something the common folk could grasp, as a description of the densities and their evolution would be too complicated and not carry forward well.

basically a flawed way of having a discussion about religion?

You can answer a question, then people will ask it again five minutes later (if they don't like the answer), as if it is new and enlightening and revealing.

Aren't we just going around and around in circles, until the stupidest question (repeated enough times, by highly motivated people) will always be presented as original and insightful, even though it has had brilliant answers to it -nin it's other ten thousand incarnations?

Are we atheists going to be stuck here foreever in some blyddi pointless battle of wills..and must we accept that it is absolutely pointless discussing here in this format?

I am just curious what everyone thinks.For example if you say something judgmental, and someone tells you to get over yourself or that you are being judgmental then they are also judgmental; and by me saying that they are judgmental then I am again being judgmental and so on and so on. I am just wondering if perhaps it is in human nature to be judgmental and if there is any way to stop being so.

1st) How come jews believe that Elijah will return and announce the comming of the Messiah? Is that why jews don't believe that jesus was a Messiah, bc Elijah didn't announce it? (notice i didn't say "the messiah" because other people have been called messiah's by the jews ex. cyrus the great, bar kokhba... ) I couldn't help notice this while i saw a place for Elijah (maybe it was a cup of wine dedicated to him) during the Seder at a dinner table once and i became curious .

2nd question.... why do the christians not call God yahweh?(yhwh) That part of the jewish bible is also in the christian old testiment, yet christians do not call him that.

3rd question... i couldn't help notice that the ten commandments from the jewish bible is different from the christians. I understand that there are many different versions of bibles and many more than 10 commandments, but why are the 10 main ones different?? Did christians change it?

i enjoy studying different religions

After the whole school shooting incident, i've felt so bad for the Amish. I mean those people don't hurt anyone and some stupid sick bastard comes in and shoots their children and they forgive him. They are so sweet.

Every now and then a friend or acquaintance informs me that someone they know has died - perhaps a parent, sibling or even a good friend. I always feel at a loss as to what to say in these situations. Is there an appropriate way to react/respond? Does anyone have a simple phrase that you can use in such situations to express your empathy without sounding overly soppy and sentimental but without also sounding careless and callous?

Thanks!

Because some people haven't witnessed the supernatural doesn't mean it is not there. Just because I have to joy of the Lord in me doesn't lower my IQ.

Can we not accept that although we have minor differences in our Bibles, and our denominations that we share the same God, the same Christ, and the same hope? I will admit that I have wasted time too in this dispute and meant no harm. I was truly trying to explain my position and got carried away.

The United States Government says they are decent people so I would say I'm in good hands.

Don't you have to be a god to know there is no God?

Is there a book that chronicles how Christ would have dealt with us and us with him if Christ walked the earth today as a human man such as he did 2000 years ago.

I would contend that is the faith of the Christian, that any sinner can get forgiven,

the whole hitler thing can be shown in the Bible with Saul who became Paul, and admits in Galatians how he killed Christians and then became one.

How does that make Christianity look bad. It is what it is.

THeir faith is don't sin but you are a sinner so accept "jesus" and then get a reward . heaven.

That doesn't make it look bad, its only absurd cause, well, THERES NO PROOF OF GOD.

Thanks, your thoughts?

Just recently I visited Disney World in Orlando, Florida. I noticed that a lot of the people from the Jewish faith have been dressed in "religious garb". The men have been wearing their yamicas (spelling?) and the women have been wearing either two piece black dresses, or something really similar.

I remember meeting a Jewish girl, but she wasn't dressed like that, so I'm confused. Is there some sort of Jewish holiday going on that they are dressing like that?

I thought it was only during Hannukah that they dressed up.

If someone can answer it, it would be really appreciated! Thanks ahead of time.

does that mean that the strong and the bold will have to fight for it for them because the dictionary defines meek as being submissive, or without spirit, and lacking backbone.

I have and although our Catholic Bible has more books and minor differences I can say that truthfully they are basically the same otherwise. Has anyone else read both and do you agree?

"According to the bible, they do not go to heaven. Figure it out."

If you know there is biblical support for something, show it. In this particular situation, even, there is not true biblical support for the idea that the speaker of this quote was talking about.

Is it right to be tolerant towards fanatic groups who abuse of the tolerant world to promote their agendas while being untolerant themselves to any criticism and have no reciprocity towards those who tolerated them?

Oh but there is so much more to it then that... Or is it that Faith is the begining of these:
Sola Fide (by faith alone); Sola Gratia (by grace alone); Sola Scriptura (on the Word alone); Solus Christus (because of Christ alone); and Soli Deo Gloria (to the Glory of God alone)
What say you all?

I was sitting across the street from a small intersection where these two black guys were crossing. They both hit the intersection at the same time and the lady nearly hit the black guys. In the mean time the lady yells out her window "why dont you watch where your going you stupid nigg3rs" She was about 30 and the guys were in their early twenties. The guys started yelling at her and she started yelling back. Next thing you know one reaches back and punches her in the face. She slumped over and was knocked out cold for a few minutes at least. Do you think she deserved it?

British government officials have decided that Muslims are issolated from British life...so they have decided to start a campaign attacking how a Muslim woman dresses when she visits her local MP..or has a job....

Do you think this is good way to improve community relation and encourage Muslims to integrate more is to attack them for the way their dress when they take part in British society?
