Religion & Spirituality - 24 November 2006

So hypothetically, what if an acquaintance of mine gets a really bad haircut and asks me what I think of it? If I choose to be honest, I'll hurt their feelings. But if I choose to make them feel better about it...then HYPOTHETICALLY, I'm breaking one of the Ten Commandments, right? ;-)

I'm new here, but I've seen a lot of Islamic Propaganda here in badly worded English with little or no respect for the sentiment of others.

Strangely, when I replied two of their so-called "Questions", I got ridiculous "Violations Notices"!?

The few Muslims I'd met, in my life, were people I found to be bigoted, lacking in manners and common sense. Naturally, I don't want to meet anymore.

We'd hired a Pakistani Muslim immigrant here whom I had to sack because the Team complained about his collaring them and running down Christianity and America. Considering the fact he was trying to come in here, one would have thought he'd have more common sense.

Anyway, is this a regular thing here?

I know how to feed the spirit: spending time in the word and prayer, but how do I stop fulfilling the lust of the flesh...especially when I am having a hard time with lust and sex

Did you hear when the worms ATE King Herod in Acts? Or when Judas (another Judas) bought a field and his body burst open and all his intestines spilled out?

if the only only source of reference is the book itself. how can one sensibly answer questions related to the bible if all of the evidence supporting this book is contained within the book.

how can one become a mechanic if there was no information from which to draw. could one be a plumber without multiple sources of information to support their learning.

I am asking this question because I just posted a question a few minutes ago. Some of the answers I received were from people who could find no way to answer the question, except to use the bible as a reference. I didn't require expert opinions, just basic information on one major topic of religion.

I was recently in a car crash and in ICU for nearly a month. Often when i had to have my sheets changed and such my parents had to wait in the ICU waiting room. The same time i was there a child of a middle eastern family was there, so my parents and the middle eastern family offen exchanged hellos and such. At one point the middle eastern family told my parents that they would pray to 'Allah'(sp?) for me. Now i'm not religous so to me it was the same as just saying they hope i get better.

My question is for those that are more religous or even atheists... Would you be offended if you were one religion and some one said they would pray to what you concider a false god for you? If your atheist, would you get mad if anyone said they would pray to any god for you?

I honestly think god had nothing to do with it, me still being here is due to some wonderful doctors. I was just wondering what others would think or do in a simular situation.

Tomorrow I need to give some young boys a lesson on Paul the apostle and David from Old Test.
I want to show the contrasting directions of their lives with maturity.

Can you please tell me what you like about David's story and what you like about Paul, the apostle's??
Thank you

A cult..... is a cohesive group of people (often a relatively small and recently founded religious movement) devoted to beliefs or practices that the surrounding culture or society considers to be far outside the mainstream.

Is Christianity small? recently founded? outside the mainstream?

No. Therefore it is not a cult by definition. Perhaps think of another word to use with which to radically insult this religion, so as not to look assinine.

Remember, the athiests best friend is "mr. logic". Logic dictates that if one part of this definition does not fit, it is therefore not the right definition. Is Christianity "small" with over a billion followers? No. (Gavel hits the bench) Boom. Case dismissed.

Agree?? Disagree??

Acknowlege this, or just turn a deaf ear and cry "cult" ??

Blessings,
David

because you were born with that religion and thats what your family practices.
