I mean this both as it applies to Gods righteous indignation and our own sense of righteousness that initiates anger or displeasure when it is violated. Is anger a choice then or a spontaneous reaction to be used as a tool of manipulation to get others in line with our own wills?
Any intelligent thoughts?

"Time" only exists within the Universe. It's not even real( we just invented it, as Einstein proved ). Hence isn't thinking of "a point of creation" just meaningless? Not to mention thinking "Who created the universe?"

Our ancestors may not have understood that time isn't real, and hence concluded that 'god' created the Universe. But people today should know better.

Does anyone know just how important religion was before the nation state was formed? I know it performed many things that the welfare state does now, but to what extent was it central to everyones lifes..its hard to understand when i only know how it is today in my culture and im studying fundamentalism at the moment and feel it would really help in my understanding of that to know why religion is so important in some countries. How can you base life just around religion? Please help me xx

I pose this question to challenge the fact God is alive and actively working in the life of many, but the key point I wish to draw to u is that as evil prevails, God uses it as a mean of chastisement for our sinfulness.

What is your stand?

Some people just can't take the pain of life. Where was God when these people needed him the most?

As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let you down probably will. You will have your heart broken probably more than once and it's harder every time. You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken. You'll fight with your best friend. You'll blame a new love for things an old one did. You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and you'll eventually lose someone you love. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you've never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back.

Will they get angry after we pull out of Iraq and put old hatreds aside and join
with Iran?

An older relative told me when she was a little girl, her father broke his leg and could not go up the ladder to turn on the lighthouse light for the ships. She was 10 yrs old, scared, prayed for guidance to go up the long stairs black in the darkness of night. She prayed, looked up, and say an angel at the top, wings spread, light glowing down the stairs, so she could go up. She said she never forgot it. That was 50 yrs ago, and I never forgot it either, the day she shared her night in the darkness, when God sent an angel to let her see her way. That is my story, do you have one too?

Why do I walk past churches and get the most disgusted looks. I have purple hair, tattoos and peircings. I believe in the same God they do, and volunteer through-out the county... I understand my example is extreme... but why are most Christians so intolerant? Its like they don't care to hear my story, and my beliefs which are closely related to their own... they just want to count my soul on their chalkboard as another converted...

If you were going to attend services, wouldn't you rather attend a local church that could fit your needs? They have displayed time and again that they are very fallible. Just look at the big names from the past: Jimmy Swaggart, the Bakkers, etc. who were involved in scandals that people were not that forgiving when they occurred. Yet people hold them to inhuman standards and then make a fuss when they aren't all that "they're supposed to be as leaders of God". You can't have both.

Also, most of them, a large percentage of the country isn't even familiar with who they are unless they watch them every week.

I mean, we can commit murder, we can steal, commit incest without no consequences, become gay, commit adultry, we can envy, we can do anything since theres no consequence. We can live life and die without no punishment for what we can do. So, there's no guilt in what we can do right?
