Religion & Spirituality - 17 October 2006

Seriously, all BS aside, I am trying to be a better person. Can anyone be kind enough to tell me how Islam has transformed your life for the better? I'm sorry if I have offended you before. I am trying to be more understanding. I hopw you all are not mad about my PBUH suffix, I want peace to be on me, too.

You have a computer. You can check the validity of most any fact in a few minutes of searching. Do Christians have such hate and tunnel-vision that they refuse to accept new information?

My boyfriend is Jewish, and I am Catholic. I am wanting to bring him home with me for Christmas this year, but he has said that being at a "Christmas celebration" would make him uncomfortable. In my family, Christmas isn't at all about the religious aspects - it is mostly just a good reason to have a family reuinion once a year. Does anyone have any ideas/experiences on how I could make the holiday season enjoyable for both of us?

We've all heard of Moses, right? Along with other famous people in history, like Jesus or Mohammad. But their histories are different. Moses whom is known in all three religions, Christianity, Judaism, and Islam had been born in Egypt. But his family had descended from Joseph whose Jewish followers had been on rocky terms with God for quite a while. They were put into slavery by the Egyptians then freed by Moses.

When he was born, his life was at risk. The pharoah had decreed that all Jewish newborns were to be killed. In order to "save" her son, Jocheved put him into the Nile river. Most mothers that hear their newborn sons are to be killed, don't run to nearest river to send them away. Jocheved's actions are quite questionable. Was it for the betterment of Moses's life to be dropped into the Nile, or was it simply that she had the intent to kill him, thinking that drowning wasn't fast enough and death by starvation and thirst (irony: being in water by not able to drink it)?

I pretended to speak in tongues with an interpreter to test the credibility of this practice. I just said a bunch of baby talk gibberish and the interpreter told me about the conversation I just had with god. He tried to read me like a fake psychic and basically made up a bunch of BS. How can you christians decieve and brainwash people in your house of warship, its discusting

Please consider the following:

When fish enter into caves...and become trapped, over time their eyes atrophy. If they were to swim back out into the light their eyes would (over generations) grow back.

This is fact.

I don't believe that if you throw a bunch of letters into the air that they will land into beautiful forms of poetry such as Milton, Whitman, Tennyson, etc...)

It seems kinda obvious that Creative Inteligence is
at work (in the eye and poetry.)

But why does eye want to see itself?

Don't groan, I'm on your team (I wasn't always)

Question:

What form of deity or spiritual being could you reasonably postulate that would be consistent with scientific knowledge as it stands now?

Thoughts:

If your deity is one that buries dinosaur bones on the sixth day and fakes gravitational lensing on the day the telescopes are out, then I say you violate "reasonable".

We're not thinking "logically possible" here. Nearly anything is logically possible. I'm looking for something that's a bit closer to your everyday sort of plausability.

Doesn't have to be any type of god that already "exists" in culture anywhere, but it can be if you like.

Just asking cos I'm interested in the idea, that's all. Thanks!

I know its not for me to judge but all my friends are very sinful and dirty-minded. It rubs off on me a lot even though I am a Christian. I try to tell them to not do it around me but they just kinda shrug. Now my mind is on things it shouldnt be a lot of the time, and I have done things that definitely do not reflect my Christian values. I repent but can't stop myself form doing them again... I even find myself looking forward and planning to do these types of things later on in the day. I repent again and again, but I dont feel forgiven, or any less guilty. They say I must not be asking with a sincere heart, but I cant hardly do that myself. It seems like everyone else gets real emotional whenever they pray, but I dont even hardly feel a connection. I read the bible, I understand the bible, I have been saved, I know when something that I'm doing wrong I shouldnt be doing it but I still do it again and again the same things. What is wrong with me?!! I
