I didn’t think that was up to you after reading your rule book, but either way, that sounds like a pretty pompous boast. Did someone send you a voucher, or can you just ‘feel’ this too?

Surely we are our own judge and juror. Religion spawns evil. Yes i do have kids. Five of them. And i would never instill guilt into their souls.

I was born and raised a Catholic however due to the hypocrisy of the faith I have not attended church for over 10 years. However I would love to know how other's feel about this?

I do not mean to offend, I am genuinly interested in this. My mum could not take communion as she was divorced, however my aunt in the next parish could? How can this be a fair religion?

How can priests preach to us to love one another - then tell us things like homosexuals are wrong and sinful? How can one priest allow a gay man in his congragation yet another can say no?

Please can you explain this as it may help me make sense of things?

This is one thing I have never understood. A person either believes in God or doesn't believe in God, it's that simple. With everything I see in the world and all of the research I have done I come to the conclusion that there is no God. I gaurantee I could go to chuch the rest of my life and pray and tell God that I'm accepting him into my life and what ever else I need to do to get to heaven, but in your heart of hearts you can't make yourself believe anything. I can lie to myself, God, and the world, but does that get me into heaven? There are millions of people in the world that do this everyday. They want to believe inorder to get to heaven so they do everything right. Since God can read minds he must know that people like this truly don't believe right? My point is that if it is true that (Truly) believing is needed to get to heaven then it isn't a choice that one can make.

i am talking about the God who created you and created me. the God of Adam and Eve, the one who send Abraham, Isaac, Moses. the God who sent Jesus to you, the God of heavens and earth. isn't this suppose to be the only God who you should worship, isn't that one of the most important commandment of God?

1st Commandment: you shall not take other gods before Me.

which indicate that you cannot worship anything else except this God. what do you think please?

Is it possible to be sinless. I know that it is not but for some reason I keep badgering myself for the sins that I commit. I know that I am to repent and never return but what is the point of repenting if I haven't completely broken the chain yet?

Would you do evil to get into Heaven, or would you continue to do good deeds, knowing that you'd spend eternity in Hell? In other words, if the rewards and punishments were switched, would you change your behavior to match, or would you continue being who you are? (And please, don't try to weasel out of answering by saying, "But God would never do that..."; just answer the question or not!)

I think many of you misunderstood me. I was not trying to say that all people are damned to hell; I was trying to say that all people deserve to go to hell. What I am trying to say, is that I don’t believe that many people can see their own sin. I don’t think that many of you can see how wrong you are!
I can see how sinful I am. I am not self-righteous, because I can see how wrong I am. And by seeing that, I put myself below each and every one of you. Because I know, that I am more sinful than every one of you. I know that I should be in hell, but that through Christ Jesus, I am saved.
What I want to know is, how many of you can see the sin in yourself?

Who decided what books would go into the Bible, when, and in what order, and why does the Catholic Bible differ from the Protestant? I'm looking more for a book or website for research than a straight answer.

AFTER the Rapture, this automated service will send
your unbelieving left-behind friends and loved ones an
e-mail, to let them know what happened to you and how
they can survive hell on earth (but don't worry,
they'll realize you're also rubbing their faces in it.)

I asked the question, "are Christians against polygamy?" As expected, the majority said yes.

But how does this fit with the Christian view of heaven? If there is a married couple that are both fervent and true Christians, and one of them dies and the other remarries another fervent and true Christian... what happens when all 3 (maybe even 4 if it happens again) of them get to heaven?

Won't they all be married to each other? Or will marriage be done away with in heaven? Will each of them be free to find another person to be with and have children with, or will one of them be forced to be alone?

Do you believe that the earthly Christian concepts of marriage and relationships will no longer be applied? If so, then why are they held so sacred now if they will ultimately be done away with?

Or is this, once again, something that makes no sense and has to be written off as "taken on faith."

The Bible in all of its incarnations and forms has always been altered to fit the politics of the times in which it was being compiled or revised. With today's emphasis on the question of gay marriage, it occurs to me that when you remove the political aspects of everything, what you are left with is the assertion by all versions of the Bible that sex outside of wedlock is wrong (and no, not ALL versions of the Bible condemn gays, especially when you realize that the word 'homosexual' did not exist until the 18th century!)
The question is; with this one unifying theme concurrent through all versions of the Bible and most other holy scriptures, why then are gays not allowed to marry. Would it not be in the best interest of the church, the state, and society for gays to adhere to the same tenets as heterosexuals?

Rabid proponents from either side of this arguement need not answer this question.

What kind of paradise is it in which it is forbidden-under threat of loss of love and abandonment, of feeling guilty and ashamed-to eat from the tree of knowledge, ie, to ask questions and seek answers to them. Who was this contradictory God who had the need to create a curious Eve and at the same time forbid her to live according to her true nature? If Adam is not allowed to be aware of what is before his very eyes, he will direct his curiosity to goals far removed from himself as possible, but will always take anxious care not to let his gaze rest on the tree of knowledge planted right in front of him.
Is it surprising then that we prefer to take upon ourselves the hell of blindness, alienation, abuse, deception, subordination and loss of self rather than lose that place called Paradise, which offers us security, but at such a high price?

The Bible specifically allows for it. The only "rule" written about it is that it's wrong to marry two sisters since they'll compete for attention.

Nearly every Biblical patriarch was a polygamist. God blessed them and multiplied their children because of it. Some of them were even commanded by God to take more wives.

Is polygamy a sin if the Bible endorses it and there's not a single verse in the Bible that condemns it?

Honesty does not mean being rude, judgemental, nor critical of others. It means to be honest with who WE are.
