Religion & Spirituality - 15 November 2006

As a recent convert to Islam, I am a bit apprehensive on wearing the Hajib. I guess its because the Hajib is like the final step announcing to the world "Hello I'm Muslim" and I'm scared on how I will be treated by my friends and coworkers. Is this silly? What should I do?

Almost anything is up for discussion and open debate nowadays, so what about death? Specifically, your own mortality? What are your views on death, and on your own 'passing'?

I have alot of special traits (gifts) my son does too. We channel with each other. Take for instance I was asleep and could here him hollering for me. When I awoke he was still hollering. I ran into the room. He was asleep and I could still hear him hollering for me. I woke him up and asked him if he had hollered for me and he said in my dreams I did. I didn't know what he meant. So I let it go. Then once he awoke real well he began telling me about his dream and how he was hollering for me. He is in GT classes. I too was in GT (advanced classes) At the age of 1 1/2 years old he could make cars out of legos. They looked like cars,...color coordinated,windshield,tires. At the age of 3 he would awake and let me know someone had died. He has eyes that signify an old soul. As I do too. He isn't bratish child however. That is one trait he doesn't have. However he could read cursive without being taught. There is so much more I could tell but I will let the ones who believe in this to decide

I ask this is relation to the Nazi period, about which I'm doing research. One of my sources refers to "the doctrine of the Reformed Church, which exhorts Christians to resist in accordance with the second table of the Commandments," referring in particular to the Sexth Commandment, "Thou shalt not kill." In investigating this I learned that some interpretations of this Commandment justify wars of self-defense, and I assume this is what my source was referring to. So my question is, is resistance to tyranny equivalent to a war of self-defense under the Sixth Commandment?

I am looking for a good Christian response to Deism, one that specifically can deal with logically and rationally the arguments of Thomas Paine as published at www.deism.com/paine_essay03.htm. I can't seem to find one.

Love and compassion for your community?Or do you do it so that you'll be having more riches after you die?

If I try to tell someone about my personal beliefs(which I rarely ever do unless I am on here or someone asks),its because I love and care for that person.It makes me sad to know that some people out there just spread word about their personal beliefs only because they think that after wards they'll be living the good life.I know,you have every right to do so,but its still abit selfish .

Not Jesus Christ. But someone after Him.

Just curious to see the responses.

We all have this life, and I've seen no proof of an afterlife. Why are so many obsessed with it?

Specifically, the issue around whether we are living in a Universe that is 6,000 years old (Bible opinion, I think) or one that is between 13 - 18 billion years old.
Can I believe in what the bible says and in Darwin's theory of evolution well? And, are they compatible with one another?

As soon as I met her to do some chores, I knew something was amiss about her, like she was sad, depressed or bitter, and very private as to her not wanting anyone to know that she was a nun or anything.

She left the church, and is never happy? Could this be a cross from God that she left as she was once married to the Lord?

I don't understand the mindset of people who want to belong to a church that finds them wrong. Why don't you start a new church or join one that doesn't interpret the bible in such a way that you are excluded?

a) I believe that the Bible was written by Man and not God
b) That as a consequence of a) the Bible is not 100% factually correct but that there may be some imperfections and inaccuracies in the text
c) That only the New Testament (and then, only the part detailing Jesus' life) has any real relevance and that 99% of the Old Testament is just (trying to put it politely) a load of old rubbish
d) That going to Church is not a neccessity to being a Christian (as most British churches are extraordinarily dull for a young person, like me) - the ones in the USA look much better and more exciting!
e) That God is "in" me (I think this is what is called the Holy Spirit?) insofar as I "know" what is right and wrong and I try to live my life by doing what I believe to be "right" (which just so happens to be most, if not all, of what Jesus says in the Bible when he went about preaching etc.)
P.S. These are my (current) beliefs - subject to change though as I grow older! :-)
