Religion & Spirituality - 8 November 2006

I'd like to put forth an explanation to the search for the "beginning" and why its so hard to understand where/when it happened.
It is like a circle. You ever noticed that everything in the world comes in cycles( though lame, examples include water,carbon etc cycles)? When you start drawing a circle....to a certain point you can tell its beginning point, but after its circumference is once covered, it now becomes next to imposible to tell where/when it started!
Can a paralled be drawn in this sense to the universe? Is it possible that the cosmos we now live in is nothing but a time between a big crunch and and a big bang? Does this have anything to do with ancient religious beliefs especailly relating to the Hindu belifs?

Comment and Opinions Please.

Is it true that when Jesus was young He believed He's the son of God, and where else, when He was an adult He started to believe that He and His Father are one? Is that something to do with Self Realization ie, "I and God are One"? If He did say these, can anyone show me the proof by stating the verse regrading this from the Bible.

as i know the word bible is not in the bible (correct me if i were wrong) so why the pope cant name it gospel of jesus(PBUH)?why he dont say its word of jesus(PBUH)?
i dont bash anyone but i wanna know why they dont say its the word of jesus(PBUH) and name it as that?
if you said its as the qur`an i will tell you that the word qur`n is mentioned in the qur`an ,and we dont believe that the prophet mohammad(PBUH) made it.

I've read it. Don't like most of it. But the Beatitudes are one of my favorite works of literature all the same (I'm not a Christian). Earlier I asked what people's least favorite part was, and some said the whole thing. Come on guys, there is a good part in every book...So I felt it was only fair to ask this question.

Come on the bible as some christians suggest was not written for christians it was written for (man) It is a wonderful book to understand the principles, but it has many metaphorical meanings that cant be taken literally. God is not yours alone, but yet you say he is. If you dont believe in sin, and if you dont repent, or if your not married to someone. If you dont do this, then you are not saved, and you will never see heaven. Why because god told you that, or is that what you have been taught? Give other people room to grow into god. You chain god up and put him in a cage as if it is yours alone, and tell others if you challenge this then it is a false god you believe in. Why isnt it easy to accept that god is in each and every one of us, and that we are connected because of the same source that gives us life and meaning. Not once did I hear the word Christians mentioned in the bible, but I heard man, as in everyone. Why do you make such seperations?

I assume that since he celebrated Passover we can also assume that he celebrated Yom Kippur, Celebrated the 8 days of Chanukah, And Joseph threw him a Bar Mitzvah.

After all he was Jewish!! I bet that he even wore a yamaka on his head.

I seriously doubt that Joe and Mary bought everyone else presents to celebrate Big J's B-Day!!

My son is in 4th grade and reading the story "The Sign of the Beaver" He has an open book quiz he is working on. One question was "who was the story about that Matt read to Attean out of the bible?" his answer (which I still have to check) was the story of Noah. The next question is to give a short summary of the story that was the answer to the previous question. The problem is that we do not attend church, and I have never, so I am asking for your help.... Can you please give me a short descripition (just a couple of sentences 2 or 3) of the story of Noah? I don't need to hear about how I need to go to church and all that.....

and when we buried her dad refused to dump the urn. I have this recurring worrie that her soul is trapped in there and can get out. Do you think that could happen, I am considering digging it up and dumping it. Or do you think over time the urn will break from the ground pressure?

I know this is a weird question but it is something I am worrying about.

Not ashamed of Jesus. Ashamed at how they present THEMSELVES, and therefore "mis"represent Jesus?
