Willys cynical thought for the fugging day;

If electricity is made by electrons is morality made by freaking morons?

Several years ago, the Catholic Church required women to wear a head covering in order to enter the sanctuary. One Sunday a lady arrived without her head covering. The priest informs her that she cannot enter without it.

So she leaves and a few moments later the lady comes back wearing a bra tied to her head. And it is abundantly obvious from the bouncing and giggling where the bra came from. The shocked priest says, "Madam, I cannot allow you to enter this holy place without wearing a bra."

"But Father, I have a divine right," she informs.

"Yes, I see. And your left one isn't bad either, but you still cannot enter THIS church like that!"

I left my church, and as a type of prodigal daughter came back when I realized I had messed up (and became pregnant). When I went back to my church no one really talked to me, except one friend I had kept in touch with, who knew the whole time what I was going through. I was kind of cast out, and the pastor even told me that I should keep coming because, although my treatment by the congregation was unfair that he felt I needed to be part of a lesson on perserverence and understanding. When I went back after I had my child the people of the congregation refused to ackowledge her presence!
I am offended by the lack of true christian brotherhood and commraderie I was shown, by a congregation that is supposed to be so close to God.
If you feel the need to tell me it was because I sinned and 1 corinthians said I should be cast out, then maybe you should read that whole chapter, or perhaps the whole book, and then shut your "pie hole".

A little far fetched but if you could humor me. SO Mohammed and Jesus ended off wondering around the same vast desert at the same point in time(hypothetically). Now there cam a point at at which they meet. Each only has enough food and water for one days journey. They both know that they are many days away from any water or ressources and will soon die. Would they either pass each other in the desert and exchanged friendly greetings and continue on to be with eachothers respective God? or would they stop celebrate and share the last of their supplies and wait for death together? They both also know that the others rations would be enough to make it out alive....

Christianity is an offshoot of Judaism. There were people or groups of people who did not agree with the doctrines or teachings of the church and they in turn founded different sects of christianity over the years. These founders are opinionated and biased with their own beliefs of how religion should be and not what it really is. These founders make the rules of the religion, much like a new boss at a job.

For example, Charles Taze Russell, founded the Jehovah's Witnesses in the late 1870's. He was raised as a protestant, but as a teenager decided that he didn't agree with the doctrines of that church. Shortly after that, he formed the Jehovah's Witnesses.

Suit follows for ALL others religions as well. Sects were formed according to opinion and not facts about religious teachings.

The question is this: how can anyone say that their religion is the true path to salvation with no questions asked, when all of them are based on founders with their own agendas.

Have any of you passed high school Geeology? Did you use the Geological time scale and answer questions in reguard to Geological time?
If you passed then you must have and in doing so you went against your personal beliefs for your own benifit.
You either lied then or your telling lies now.
Are creation "scientists" hypocrites?

I find that when I became Pagan 10 years ago I really went all out for myself , as time goes on I am more meditative about the holidays and celebrate in a personal way. I still have to celebrate all of the Christian holidays as well...so I in some ways I feel like I am cheating myself because I have to get my act together for family holidays and don't put forth the effort for myself.

"The life of the fllesh is in the blood, and I have given it upon the altar to make atonement for your sins." Leviticus 17vs11

Isaiah 52:13-53:12 explains how Messiah Jesus was as promised to first suffer "and lay down his life as an atonement for our sins." So He was allowed into Israel to fulfill this-but was Moses right to say we had to have a blood atonement for sins, in that in Genesis it tells he couldnt even enter israel and was burried outside of the land due to Moses' sin?

If you have a close family member who has passed away, I would like to have your opinion on what you feel about their existence now? Please close your eyes and irrespective of your religious beliefs ask yourself in what way do you feel their presence. Is he/she far removed, say in place called heaven, or has been reborn, or out there near you in someway. I would like to know how you feel about it. I will greatly appreciate personal anecdotes if you would like to share them here. Thank you all very much.

I dont' believe in cutting a live tree down. I wondered if other Pagans, had a fake tree as well. I have also thought of decorating a tree in my yard to celebrate the Goddess, without harming a tree.
