Religion & Spirituality - 3 November 2006

I don't get it.

I want my polical representatives to do something about the health and safety of the food that's on my table, the water that comes out of the faucet, the roads we travel, the value of my earnings, employment, schools, infrastructure, child services,homeland security, international diplomacy, ending the deaths of our troops and innocent civilians in Iraq, etc... Gays make up 2% of the population according to Christian conservatives. End the discrimination AND MOVE ON TO MANAGING THE SIGNFICANT ISSUES THAT EFFECT THE AVERAGE CITIZEN! In other words, stop blowing that issue out of proportion and do your friggin' job!

Your thoughts?

They act just like people do in movies and TV when they are possessed. its is so obvious they are just copying what they see. It just like how 50 years ago, every alien sighting, the alien was described as a hideous monster (just like TV) and now days every alien is skinny with a triangular head with almond shaped eyes (just like the movies). I think people are confusing TV with reality, expecially those nutty christians

We seem to do a pretty good job of it here.

Is this just another example of how nonexistent god really is?

that if enough people put their faith into one book, they can doom the future of our planet and all of mankind? Isn't this the real reason we are angry? Do they ever stop to think that their book could just be the mad ramblings of people gone insane? How do we stop mass insanity?

What are some good books to read, if you are researching the Wiccan religion and the like? I was online at amazon.com, and a few of the books I would think were good to read, apparently got good and bad views mixed in. So, from a true witch, what material would you suggest?

(Silver Ravenwolfe was also badly reviewed, for anyone who wishes to mention her)

I just learned who Haggard was today, but doing some reading I found that his accuser failed a lie detector test.

I don't quite follow how Christ came to die for all sins, and then Paul shows up later to add more laws. What's going on here?

It wouldn't make sense for Jesus to tell us to go tell an invisible Church something.

Matthew Chapter 18

15 "If your brother sins (against you), go and tell him his fault between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have won over your brother.

16 If he does not listen, take one or two others along with you, so that 'every fact may be established on the testimony of two or three witnesses.'

17 If he refuses to listen to them, TELL THE CHURCH. If he refuses to listen even to the church, then treat him as you would a Gentile or a tax collector.

18 Amen, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

I've seen many gay or lesbian couple of Christians are allowed to marry each other by their church. I also have heard from some people of Christians said that become a gay or lesbian is against God. So, if this things is against God, so whoever did this must be a sinner as God doesnt like it. So how about the church which allowed this marriage happen? Do all priest work inside that church also a sinner as the accept that marriage and seems like encouranging other gay and lesbian get married. How could these sinner can be followed as they also do sin like other Christians? Answer me pls..

Jesse Duplantis and Benny Hinn are worshipers of money, greedy idolaters and are in rebellion to God because they refuse to obey the following Scriptures:

1 John 3:16-18 This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers. If anyone has material possessions and sees his brother in need but has no pity on him, how can the love of God be in him? Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth.

Luke 12:33-34 Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a treasure in heaven that will not be exhausted, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

Galatians 6:10 Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers.

Hebrews 13:3 Remember those in prison as if you were their fellow prisoners, and those who are mistreated as if you yourselves were suffering.

James 1:22 Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.

James 2:14-18 What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save him? Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to him, "Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed," but does nothing about his physical needs, what good is it? In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead. But someone will say, "You have faith; I have deeds." Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by what I do.
