Scripture from the KJV -

Romans 11:36 we read; For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. Amen.

When Mary met Jesus after He arose from the tomb, she reached out to touch him. He said do not touch me I have not yet risen to my Father. So Paradise and Heaven are not the same place.

Yet they get outraged when someone makes a film about Jesus that's less than Biblical?

Is religion is a choice, in the same way that other beliefs are choices? For example, if I chose to subscribe to the moral belief that removing one's clothes was wrong, I wouldn't expect the Chippendales to make any special dispensation for me should I choose to work for them. Similarly, if religion is a choice, I wouldn't expect any special dispensation for wearing religious icons which do not conform to a company's uniform policy. I either have to give up my religion of choice, or work somewhere else.

Or is religion is more of a psychological and visceral calling? If, for example, I was blind, I would expect employers to do everything in their power to adapt to me. I could not stop being blind. Is religion more similar to this - You can't 'physically' stop believing?

Or is it the latter, but still fine to discriminate, just I would be discriminated against if I had an unshakeable belief that all women were evil?

Or is it something else altogether?

In a lot of debates here and elsewhere about the existence or otherwise of a God or Gods, people refer to the need for evidence to support or refute either side of the argument. However, one of the biggest differences between the two sides seems to be what they regard as the necessary features that "evidence" has to posess in order to be valid, relevant, and ultimately persuasive.

Personally, the main essential features of evidence that immediately spring to mind are:
- transparency
- repeatability / replicability
- the capacity to lend support to a theory with predictive power and
- objectivity (though this is partly encompassed by transparency; also see below).

An interesting argument that I have read this evening (at http://www.carm.org/atheism.htm), however, is that evidence can never be viewed objectively. Our assessment of any given piece of evidence will be influenced by our prexisting "emotions and prejudices".

I always worry about my family dying.
I'd rather die than them.
It makes me cry sometimes.
Today is my birthday, and instead of being happy when I woke up, I cried because my parents are also getting older.
I love them so much, and I don't want to lose them because I feel that I would die.
I know no one is prepared for the death of a love one, but is there a way I can be more positive about life and death?
By the way, I'm christian. Not to be mean, but I don't seek answers from atheists because their answers are of no use to me. I'd like an answer from someone who believes in God, please. Thank you :)

I am a christian and I used to go to a very good church that I absolutely loved but we relocated and it seems every church I have been to since has not been for me. I've gotten nothing from these churches. I was wondering if I am going to go to hell just because I don't attend church.

is so, if that basic goodness exists, is it possible that it dies eventually? is it possible to revive it if it dies, or is it impossible to be revived? what is your input about this matter?

I have been talking to a Budist girl on here and she has been saying Budist prayers and meditation for me. I am a christian and was attacked by demons last night, in which I started to lebitate of my bed, and i was frightend.No people I do not take drugs, drink or hallucinate. I ended up rebuking them in the name of Jesus, and when I did my voice was very soft, as they(demons)try do silence me. As soon as a said Jesus, Jesus etc they left. Is this persons Budist prayers opening the door for Satan to come in? I just spoke to a pastor and she said yes it can, and to anoint my house with oil in the name of Jesus.

I just heard that Jews and some Christians believe this theory. With our current science we know that stars are over 6,000 lightyears away but we can still see them. So, with common sense we can tell that the world is over 6,000 at least or there would be no stars in the sky.

I can not think of the correct word, i know labelled isn't quite it. BUT, does your religion have a name, or have you mixed up lots of different aspects from different religions and just tell people you believe what you believe and dont really have a label for it??

I believe in a nature type path, mother earth and respecting nature etc.... but i guess dont really have a title for it, its just what i believe?

If not why?

Leviticus 18:22
Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.

Leviticus 20:13
If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.

Romans 1
26For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: 27And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

IF GOD is not Real and His WORD is not TRUE, why do SO MANY try and prove He doesn't Exsist?

WHY would One try to Disprove SONEONE Who WAS NOT REAL? ? ?

(Romans 14:11) For it is written, "As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to Me, and every tongue shall confess to God."

(Philippians 2:10-11) that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of heavenly ones, and of earthly ones, and of ones under the earth;

(Phil 2:11) And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Thanks, RR

I'm just curious, as both a reader and an author. I know that a lot of folks (me included) are tired of the same old stuff, and it always interests me when people have ideas for things they've not been able to find (I actually wrote my first book after being frustrated with not being able to find books on animal magic other than totem animal dictionaries!).

So--what kind of books do y'all want to see on the shelves that aren't already there?

Is religion a hoax? WHy? If you belive in God and respect others and are a moral person, why should the little stuff make a difference in the end?

My husband has been afraid to sleep at night.in the dark, he has to have a light on cause he says's he see's things. For the past couple of months, I'm not sure how often though, but he thinks of Satan out of no where. Saying his name outloud or in his head. He says he doesn't know why this is happening but he tries to pray but he still has this problem. I'm not sure if he's ever repented his sins, he's a catholic so he thinks only a priest can forgive him which I don't believe. Can you all help me pray for him to keep Satan at away. Thanks...Also, any other advice will help.
