Religion & Spirituality - 25 December 2006

2,006 years from now what do you think the worlds religious view will be?
Heres my vision

future son "daddy why did people use to believe in god and heaven?"

future dad "well son, people in the past were not very keen on the idea that man could not live forever so they created a way in which every man could believe they would exist for eternity, now that we can all live to be 250 years old, no one really cares anymore."



one more Q. Do I actually have to tell you people when I make a joke? because usually only 1 or 2 of you seem to understand my Atheist sense of humor

How did Jesus work the loaves and the fishes thing? Did he miraculously duplicate the ones that he had like a miraculous cloning? Or did he miraculously make new ones using a template contained in his mind? Were the miraculous ones added to the naturalistic ones, by way of economy, or did the whole lot disappear and get replaced by new fresh ones for a more aesthetic and healthy approach.

I've always known Jesus had physical brothers and sisters, that Mary had children to Joseph after Jesus was born. It says so in the Bible. The author of James is believed to have been the brother of Jesus and leader of the council of Jerusalem. He could not have been the apostle James, who died too early (AD 44) to have written it. The other two men named James had neither the stature nor the influence that the writer of the letter James had. James was one of several brothers of Christ and was probably the eldest since he heads the list in Matthew 13:55 (his brothers James, Jospeph, Simon and Judas, also sisters). James was martyred circa AD 62.

How come then, since this is common knowledge and written down in the Bible, that some people think Mary never had sex with Joseph, never mind bore him any children? Is this a conspiracy by the Roman and Orthadox churches to keep their members in the dark? Did you know Jesus had siblings or is this shocking news to you? Does it matter?

the bible says in luke that jesus was born in 6ad according to quinerrious. and then it says he was born when herod reigned which is commonly taught was about 4 bc or some even say 8 bc.
If the bible cannot be perfect in its testimonies, was it corrupted? than how can it be perfect if the nativity of the gospels cant agree?

SUPPOSE:
Beginning with major teaching of the world.
If there could be a way, that what has been taught from childhood onward and is a concept in the mind of each person, if it was wrong or false, should the person be taught all that is right and forgiven that they were taught all wrong?
John 12:47,48;
Judgement is from the word.
John 8:32; 17:17;
Is it important that the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth be known.
Do all get same meaning?
Say, what is soul?
Or, What is spirit?
And, What is hell?
How many in a Rapture?
Why do all go to heaven, is there not any tning else?
Suppose few believe in the Trinity, are they forgiven and taught?
From Abel to 1914.
In 1914 after Christ the KJV Bible 1611 Published is an excepted translation at 303 years, for the world.
From Abel and all to 1914 they did not have what we have, what happens to these persons?
If we have to have a belief, then they do as well?
Should we even think of all the time of the world?

Its true. The only way that it can be said to be done in Jesus' name is if he called for it or commanded it. But if He not only did not expressly call for it but actually forbade it, how can anyone say that what they do against his will, they did for him or in his name?
It was then against his will and against his name.
Really they can only have done it in their own name.They kill in the name of their greed or in the name of their country.
Jesus himself said"Why do you call me Lord when you do not do the things that I say" and another scripture says "because of you my name is blasphemed all day long"
But some people just like to believe an evil report instead of a good report, because it resonates in their heart, and suits their purpose.
What do some protesters of the war say? Not in my name, in other words this is not my will.

a few weeks ago, i had a problem with kids going through my yard for a shortcut. first, i tried remedying it by putting up a fence, but then they kicked a hole through it and are starting to do it again. the only thing i could think of is getting animated manniquins and dressing them in catholic priest uniforms and posting them in my yard. this may sound funny, but i live near a catholic school. this actually worked. i have 5 dummies in catholic preist uniforms around my property and the kids have stopped trespassing. my neighbors are offended by the sight of these but i dont care. i have told these parents to tell their children not to trespass but they have not so i thought of the next best thing. why are my neighbors offended? am i in the right or are they? i have taken care of the more important problem but created another. should i just get a dog that bites and attacks or keep these "priests"?

I am just wondering because I've experienced interesting things. I can usually tell when something bad or good is going to happen, what someone is thinking sometimes, I saw my cousin's remodeled house in my mind or in a dream before I actually went and saw it (when I was a kid) and many, many other things.
Right now I'm feeling depressed and like something is "missing", and it's driving me nutto! I can't seem to concentrate on anything else right now.

It is true, all rational thought leads to the idea of a beginiing for all, or a uncaused cause or ultimate cause, all serving the same function in a rational chain. Atheist deny the last link, they stop before the end, that is all. They have the same brains and wills that we do.The question is why do they stop before the end? the answer is simple, they wish to deny it.
Consider this startling admission by Nobel Prize winner George Wald (1906–1997):

There are only two possible explanations as to how life arose. Spontaneous generation arising to evolution or a supernatural creative act of God. . . . There is no other possibility. Spontaneous generation was scientifically disproved 120 years ago by Louis Pasteur and others, but that just leaves us with only one other possibility. . . that life came as a supernatural act of creation by God, but I can’t accept that philosophy because I do not want to believe in God. Therefore I choose to believe in that which I know is scientifically impossible, spontaneous generation leading to evolution.5

I mean considering we are getting closer to a one world government, and the rule of a world dictator, do you believe the end time ruler is alive today? Christians we will not see him as we will be gone by then and taken to Heaven to have a beatiful banquet in royalty and in style, while the tribulation is going on down on the earth. I also know people are getting chipped today in the hand, and I know Iran will have nuclear bombs by 2009, and Israel plan to close its borders by 2010, and the animal rights in Israel we be put in place by 2010. If the Temple is rebuilt by that time, as we know the antichrist puts an end ot sacrifices and worship. Do you believe the Eurmed 2007-2013 could be the start of what is to come. The have a seven year covernant with many and will be confirming it, next year(a few days to go)Israel has even signed up for it, interesting. There term is from 1st Jan 2007 until december 31 2013, and I will rule nothing out. It may be a start of what is to come.

You say that we Chrsitians are wrong. Just say we are, and we are not when we die we just go the the dust and that is it. But just say all right that there is a God, Jesus, Heaven, Hell and the Devil, you would **** yourself. If we are 100% right and you are 100% wrong then you would go straight to Hell and burn with demons tormenting you physically and mentaly. If there was a Hell and you went there, then you would believe, trust me on that one. But like I said if we are wrong then we have nothing to look forward to in this life as we have nothing to look forward to after life, as we live to die. But like I said if we are right, then I would hate to be in your shoes on judgment day.
