if you went to Starbucks, bought a truck, or watched American Idol or became a Miley Cyrus fan, then you should answer 'yes'.

it seems that a lot of people think they are special little children of god who are looked after every minute of every day, and they have "the truth" that nooobody else has this so they are above other people. I think the sooner people realize that humans are just another animal that we can get along better, happy hanukkah.

Please tell what each religion believes? If there are some you do not know what they believe that is okay. Don't waste your time telling what christians believe because I already know and I am a christian.

Religion is a sham to make people feel better, to keep them in-line, and to steal from them the whole time. Explain how what I have suggested is wrong.

This means what is the atheist believing in as opposed not to belief in God and after all Satan is the God of this world. Oh well I was just wondering.

Must there be a god?

I don't think so. I think the universe has always been. Since forever. And we are just here. That's it. It's simple.

No magic tricks. No supreme being. Just random.

I think every prophet that ever lived had their own agenda. Power. Money. Fame. Whatever. There's too many of them to believe.

Maybe reincarnation is true. Who knows? Maybe we've just always been. One life after the other after the other since forever.

That's what I think.

This was years ago, so I'm not even sure if anyone will know what I'm talking about... I received it via email and it was about a guy who dreamed he was in a room that had the index drawers like the ones you find in libraries. Upon closer inspection, he sees that the subjects are directly related to him, i.e, "Girls I have liked". Other cards show the darker subjects, such as "Things I have said in anger to my brother" and "Lustful thoughts I've had". Every last card has his signature, the date, and the time of each occurance.

As his horror and shame builds at the details, he notices that he's no longer alone, and Jesus is with him. Jesus takes the card from him and signs His own name over the narrators. He tries to take the cards away from Jesus, saying that His name shouldn't be on them, but Jesus continues to sign with a red pen, in His blood.

It's really deep, and I'd love to read it again and share it with others, so if you have it, please send it to me.

He is a famous football player I have been lead by the spirit to really pray for this man how do I know if it is the spirit versus my imagination? And it may sound nutty but I really believe Jesus has revealed this man to me as my husband? How do I know it's real and not the devil or wishful thinking.

I am an Agnostic who has been studying many different religions over the last few years. I have found the principles of Buddhism to truly symbolize what I would like to strive to become. Please do not mention other religions; I find the principles of the other major religions to be immoral at best.

The only major religion I havn't touched yet is Hinduism, except for the knowledge I got about some Hindu concepts from studying Buddhism. My question is how does Buddhism differ from Hinduism?

Is life fair? It's a simple, almost childish question, but I think the way we answer it says something very profound about how we see the world. Some people say that life is obviously unfair because we are all born into a different lot in life, some more fortunate than others, and we are subjected to many forces outside of our control. But there's another train of thought that looks at the big picture, beyond your own life, and thinks that fortune and misfortune, survival and death all balance out, which enables life and nature to sustain itself. There are different ways to think about it. What do you think? From where you sit, is life fair?

But suppose that when I die I find myself facing eternal damnation because it turns out that the universe is even wackier than Lewis Carroll on LSD, and there really IS a supernatural being that can only be seen or heard by lonely shepherds wandering in the desert, and who really DOES dole out eternal rewards on the basis of who lives up to some archaic system of morality.
Well, I'll be a monkey's uncle! But anyway, now I see the truth and obviously "believe in" God, since the guy is standing right in front of me. Do I get into heaven now, or does the all-powerful, all-loving and all-forgiving God not care about your belief once you're dead?
If I'm standing there saying, "OK, I was wrong, I see now that you really do exist", is the God of Infinite Compassion gonna say, "Sorry bub, times up. You're spending eternity in a lake of fire, and there's not a goddamn thing you can do about it"?

If this is your God's idea of forgiveness, I'd just as soon take my chances, thanks very much.

No matter what people say it wont harm God in any way fine don't believe in god if you don't want to but no need to get upset if i believe in him. And as for Christians who say that you are the only ones that will enter hell, i say that is dame rude if you ask me. As for the Jews that say that they are the chosen one and think by being chosen is to hide what you have, that as well is a fantasy. You were chosen to teach the people the knowledge but pride over took you and god forgave you. But you my friend are my brother even though you don't want to be my brother. Some times an older brother have to give in to him younger brothers stubbornness. The conclusion is that their is only one god for all mankind if their was 2 Gods believe me they would be war.

I am atheist and was debating religion with my aunt. I remember reading about Galileo and how he proved a statement was false in the bible that stated "The earth is the center of the Universe". Does anyone know that passage Galileo proved wrong. Are there anymore out there that was proved wrong or thought to be debatable. Christians just think they are so right and everyone else will go to hell if you don't believe. I need some more arguments.
