Religion & Spirituality - 14 December 2006

I read a horrible story in the biography of prophet Muhammed that one of his companions KILLED his wife because she told him she did not like what prophet Muhammed was doing.

After KILLING his wife, the man confessed to prophet Muhammed and told him she was very decent and kind to him but he could not stand her insulting prophet Muhammed. When prophet Muhammed heard that he praised the man.

I was very surprised to read that story because I thought that killing should be a MJOR CRIME that should never be praised.

(1) Is that story true?
(2) Was prophet Muhammed just to praise somone for KILLING?

Theres just so many to try and learn about. Should i just forget it all because it would take forever to explain? Whats the umbrella he kept talking about?

Who believes in Spiritualism? For what it stands for. The Faith, that does not scare people into believing. A gentle way of life.. To be as one, with the world, with Nature.. With words of true wisdom.

"Life is not an eternal search for God: Life is an Eternal Expression of God."
What do you think of this statement? Moreover, the level of evolution that we have achieved so far only shows us how far we can truly reach. Existence is God experiencing God’s self through us and all of life. We are individual, unique, divine, aspects of the whole seeing itself through our different perspectives. This is the essence of life, to experience all things in all ways and to expand to undreamed of levels of awareness and creativity. So my main question is this. Should we not unleash ourselves from our own self-contained ideology and rhetoric and understand the unlimited nature of the universe which is God? This is Life! This is ever evolving evolution! We are how the Universe creates itself, that is how important we are!

You were quick to bash me, for joking about you, then, none of you came on to accept my apology,

My point is I was big enough to apologize because God is in my life, You cannot forgive because God is not in your life.

So I do not take back my original question "What do you give an Atheist for Christmas"
The answer is FORGIVENESS, BECAUSE THEY DONT HAVE ANY.

Okay, we all know there are outspoken people who get news coverage, such as Westboro Church and their anti-gay sentiment, that cause mis-conceptions about Christianity.

So, what are some common misconceptions about Christianity you have either heard on the board, or in daily life, that youd like to clear up?

For example, Christians are intolerant and hateful. While Christianity SHOULD be teaching Love to others.

I know there are Atheists out there, who know a great deal about Christs teachings, so if you have an example of a misconception, and what Christians SHOULD be doing or portraying, go for it.

That when we christian ask a question concerning where things come from, non-believers are quick to reference a scientific PROCESS?The scientific process still doesnt explain where all the stuff came from;it just attempts to explain how the things interact.
The question is where did the stuff actually come or originate from if there was nothing in the beginning? I've only seen one person that actually gave attempted to answer this question. The answer was "well they must of always existed." Let me point out that this answer alludes to God;at the burning bush God told Moses "I Am that I Am"Meaning He always was,always is, and always will be.God is the only one that has always existed;so in a way that answer is admitting to there being a God.
So. Do non-believers actually have a good answer for where the materials actually come from?Dont just tell me about the processes,cuase I've heard it all before. Who can atually put forth an answer for where the materials come from outside of God?

Because they act like they do sometimes. They aren’t (not even close), but it’s like they want to pretend they are.

I am experiencing some very strange things. I asked that question,
but in a different way. I mean rich in spirit. I have experienced
some strange things lately. I have been getting financial
blessings, friends from my past, a new car, a new job, better
health, more wisdom, and prophetic dreams. This is
unbelievable. But it is happening right here, right now. I guess
this is what being rich in spirit is about. Divine favor. Does
anybody out there, know what I am experiencing ? Do you
know ?

Lots of animals have gay sex and relation ships. It doesn't go against nature. Only your silly god hates gays. NOT Nature. So please stop talking about nature until you learn about science. Read the articles!!!! Please !!!!!!!
