Religion & Spirituality - 22 November 2006

I have had alot of answers 2 a question that I posted further on in this section.
You have responded to it saying that u cant see air but its real or that you have neva seen the south pole/albert einstien ect..u have neva seen them but u know they are real.....................
Well, these are all things that are real i.e oxigen helps us breath, the objects/people are real because we have proof to there existance buy picture's & so on..

So why do people give these answers when trying to explain god? I wanted to know why u believe in somthing we have neva seen & you have used examples on living/real objects?

Im not questioning your believes im only asking why you believe so strongly in something that neva has or will be proven real.

Please dont be offended as thats was not my aim.

I always hear these ignorant people saying that blacks should go back to africa... don't you realize that your ancestors came from europe?? and that the only people with any claim to country are the native americans? And for those who CLAIM to christian, you guys do realize that jesus is a jew right? and my final question why do you hate everyone?!?!?!?!?

There was an interesting case of much ado about nothing recently with a school that was going to serve halal chicken rather than turkey for Christmas dinner (they eventually decided to have the chicken, the turkey, and the vegetarian option). I'm in a Christian society at a university that is having its Christmas meal soon and we discussed whether to invite the Muslim society, since we're trying to make interfaith links.

I know shockingly little about Islam, and it suddenly occurs to me that I've no idea how or if the average Muslim celebrates Christmas. It's become so secular that it doesn't really show its pagan roots any more, let alone Christian ones.

Obviously, Muslims are a diverse bunch but I'd really like to know what some of you think! What do you think of Christmas? Do you celebrate it, and if so, how?

The Bible is the Word of God as dictated to the prophets and apostles of the Lord Jesus Christ, yet libs act as though it can be debated and argued over. Libs, the Bible is the Rule of Law in the world. Furthermore, most proscriptions included within the Bible make good common sense anyway.

So yeah, why do libs find fault with the Bible?

This guy just answered a question that was very rude regarding Chrisians by simply saying "It's the religion I have a problem with, not the people" (not exact wording I'm sure, but really close!) I LOVE that answer. I'm a Christian, but even if I weren't I think that comment speaks a lot of truth. Lots of us (of all religions) spend time in here bashing each other, making personal attacks, etc. Perhaps we need to accept (not necessarily like) what others believe and go on about our business, hoping for the best in whatever direction you choose to go! Who's with me?

Taken from the website:

Would you like to help promote [name of book] and the new website? There are website banners here, but for those who REALLY want to get out and hit the streets, we have created a flyer for you to print and hand out! It fits four to a page, so they are small enough to keep in your back pocket or stack at your local coffee shop or school event desk. Hand them out outside your local school or church! If you have any questions or suggestions about the flyer, email me (Josh) at [email address]

In my quest to learn more about other religions, I'd like to ask: Who are two prominent leader figures (or gods, or prophets, etc) of your religion (or of your lack of religion, for the athiests and agnostics)? Please tell a little about who they are and what they teach...maybe a little history. I'd like to know who the key players are. Thumbs up will be given to all who provide a real reply. Thank you.

will you go back and read my question called "Is this stretching it too far.........?" what are you're thoughts on this? I know that if I am patient and wait on God he will bring the right one along at the right time, but what happens if I can't get this person out of my mind? I've liked this guy since I was 10 (no joke) so sometimes I can't help but think that God is trying to tell me something. But then on the other hand he's an "on-off" kinda guy: sometimes all his attention is directed towards me and I catch him looking at me a lot but then other times it seems like he ignores me completely. What does this all mean? Confusion has taken over my mind and sometimes it's hard to focus on the things that really matter right now.

Fully explain what an agreement is. Discuss some different types of agreements that can be made (E.G. formal and informal, etc) Also, reflect on some major agreements you have made in your life and discuss whether or not you are meeting your end of the bargain. Finally write about why these agreements are important to you.

i've finally come around. i don't think i'm meant to be happy in love (just my fate) & will most likely remain single. so what I do is, I engage in whatever gives me that romantic allure; going for a walk, reading a love novel, seeing a movie, learning a new language, attempting to paint/draw/write...I do miss passion but I try to help myself in any way I can, :)

how do you find this...I believe in destiny & there is only so much you can do...i feel great during the day but when the night falls...

thanx...

ps) Pl. don't write about what has nothing to do with romance & passion (work, career, hobbies, friends - that's a different world). I'd like to hear from someone who understands, that's why I said...

I am a christian trying to engage those offended by this statement in a dialogue. My goal is to understand why this would possibly be offensive, when I'm just trying to be nice. I'm not saying, "Happy Birth of Jesus Day", but rather, "I hope you enjoy your time away from work with your family." I understand that I could say just that, or "Happy Holidays," or any other number of politically correct greetings, but I want to understand why those who are offended take offense. Again, I'm trying to start a dialogue here - please help me to understand.

And what is their gender? Not that I plan on asking one out on a date or anything but I do appreciate most of them. Are they related or just a religious sect?
