Religion & Spirituality - 24 December 2006

It seems that trolls and clones are more numerous than those who really want a forum for learning and discussing religion. Why all the hate? Do they think it makes them a star? Or are their lives really that boring?

The manuscript for Science Speaks has been carefully reviewed by a committee of the American Scientific Affiliation members and by the Executive Council of the same group and has been found, in general, to be dependable and accurate in regard to the scientific material presented. The mathematical analysis included is based upon principles of probability which are thoroughly sound, and Professor Stoner has applied these principles in a proper and convincing way.

The following probabilities are taken from that book to show that coincidence is ruled out by the science of probability. Stoner says that by using the modern science of probability in reference to just eight prophecies, "we find that the chance that any man might have lived down to the present time and fulfilled all eight prophecies is 1 in 1017." That would be 1 in 100,000,000,000,000,000.

My wife and I went to Christmas Eve Service tonight, and during the sermon we noticed (for the first time) Luke 2:5, then read ahead and couldn't any reference to their ever getting married. Did they get married? And how do other churches deal with Jesus possibly being born illegitimate?

My aunt doesn't let her kids play with Pokemon, read Harry Potter, play cards, learn about different religions, watch television with any hint of lewdness or foul language, etc, etc...because they are all supposedly linked to the Devil. She's also depressed and very bored, just sleeps in her bed all day.

I really don't see what the big deal is. :S But I guess I'm not a very strict conservative Christian/Catholic as I also believe in evolution and the big bang. xD And I really don't see why it is so shocking that Jesus may have had descendants. But yeah, anyone else?

Hey, Christians buddies out there who use the King James version of the Bible:

Do you realize that King James I of England (James VI of Scotland), who authorized the King James Bible that bears his name, was a homosexual? That he had at least three documented male lovers?

So guess what?

You're reading a Bible that was authorized by a homosexual! Ha! Hahaha!

He also had a tongue that was too big for his mouth. And a mother who was accused of killing her husband (James' dad). Good solid Christian background, huh?

The story is that Aaron dictated and Moses wrote it down, but that Aaron had a lisp and so in a lot of places it's kind of hard to follow cause of all the th's where there are supposed to be s's. Then later they tried to correct it by writing a new version, and also write it in more vernacular style.

The only problem with that was, they started trying to correct words that didn't need to be corrected, and in some cases thought Aaron had other speech impediments too.

But he only had a lisp, and that was it.

Then another version came along that tried to correct those mistakes, and also tried to correct seeming contradictrions; but made mistakes of another sort, and on and on.

Now we have over nine versions. My question is this: Is the situation still confused, and is there one version of the Bible that is generally agreed upon by scholars? And have the contradictions been resolved?

Finally, did Aaron's one simple speech impediment really lead to all this??

I am a born again Christian. At my last church I was very involved and loved serving. This is the closest I've ever felt to God. I felt like my personal relationship with him was the best it had ever been. I moved 8 months ago and I haven't been able to find a church to worship in. Because of this my relationship with Him has suffered. After months of searching, I've stopped and now I wonder who have a become. Not being around people that love God has changed me. Is He disappointed?

hello. i am a normal girl wit normal family and friends. the problem is extraordinary things happen to me. i am not a religious or a traditional person. i don't even pray to god so much. i don't believe in any supertious beliefs. almost of the people think about me as a spoilt brat. my predictions come true. what i mean is if i say something or wish for something to happen, it happens. and sometimes i have weird dreams which is like impossible to happen, but it happens. when it happens i feel like i have gone through this somewhere and later i will figure it out that it was one of my weirdiest dreams. believe it or not, but i have seen god...when he came to me i felt nothing and later when he went away i felt that i lost something important. trust me, i am telling the truth. this is not my imagination. coz many people hav seen this happening to me. and a astrologer also predicted that i am special and not ordinary. sometimes this bugs me a lot. i feel horrible now. wat should i do?
