Religion & Spirituality - 12 January 2007

The moment I embraced Lucifer as the guide, things just started to make sense! And I really experienced a miracle, I have more than I asked for! Anyone else experience a similar blessing?

What's he scared of, dying? That's absurd isn't it. Doesn't his faith teach us not to fear? Does he think he is someone special? I have no respect for that.

If Atheists believe there is no God,no devil,heaven or hell, why do they spend the majority of their lives talking about religion? If you didn't believe in the care bears, would you write books,reports,interviews about how they don't exist?

My Brothers girlfriend just told me that If I was a preacher they could never come inside the church and arrest me. Is this true?

Often, Atheists make claims that I am denying reality, they tell me to prove that the bible is true. Obviously you can't, but you can't prove that Atheism is the truth either.
neither atheism, nor the bible have ever been proven false.
You will try to counter that claim, noting many contradictions you perceive, but the simple fact is, until you have read the entire book, you cannot make any claims about its message, claims, or content.

So tell me now, why do you assume?
Show me your proof and tell me atheism has the right to assume itself as fact.

Why do so many Christian faiths use a tool of execution as a "holy symbol"? No one can deny this fact. The cross was one means of execution used in that day and age by the Romans. If Christ had lived in France during the Inquisition, he most likely would have been killed by guillotine. If that had been the case, these same churches would use a mini-guillotine as a holy symbol. If He had lived in the "Wild West", He would have died by hanging. Would they then use a noose hanging from the gallows? Or if He lived today, would they begin using a syringe? The means of execution most commonly used here in the US is lethal injection.

I guess I just don't understand why so many Christian faiths have such a morbid symbol in their church.

I must add, I am Christian. However, there are no crosses in any of the THOUSANDS of buildings throughout the world with our name on it.

God in his wisdom gave us this scripture.

Mat 6:7 But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen [do]: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.

When a person prays the rosury are they sinning against the instructions of God. In the rosury people are just praying repetitive prays like reading a list over and over. This does not require he Holy Spirit leadership nor does it take faith it is a act that requires no faith. Actually it is a prayer to mary more then to GOD. Exalting her over her creator. So is it a sin or a sign of a not being born again? Please provide a scripture in the new testiment showing a apostle or any person praying to Mary with the rosury.

we can all have our own faith, but what draws us all together, what are some of your core values, what is important to you, step out of anything scripture, but what does your heart mind and soul tell you. what draws you to another person, what drives you as a person besides just your faith?

RECORD NUMBER OF EX-MUSLIMS CELEBRATE CHRISTMAS THIS YEAR: A spiritual revolution underway in Mideast .

More Muslims converted to faith in Jesus Christ over the past decade than at any other time in human history. A spiritual revolution is underway throughout North Africa, the Middle East, and Central Asia. As a result, a record number of ex-Muslims are celebrating Christmas this year, despite intense persecution, arrests, assassinations, and widespread church bombings.

I know we are all opinionated, but why can't we state what we believe and simply let others?
I am non-denominational, no religion, I simply believe in and try to live my life according to the Bible. I say I am a Christian simply because I believe in Jesus as Messiah and my Lord.
Let's get together here and say some good things about one another, instead of something bad or negative.

I will begin the discussion with this:
I do not wish to push my beliefs on anyone, if you decide to choose to live for God that is your decision.
I want you to know I respect your right to believe any way you so choose, and though I do not adhere to your faith, I do not ridicule you.
All I want is to share with you what I believe according to my Bible, and you share with me. So that we may better understand one another. Not fight.

the true religon , but if you dont want to acept it well dont but stop making fun of them and insulting them i mean what happend to the respect diffrences and other cultures and religons ? muslims belive that all the prophets were sent by ALLAH. and we have to accept and respect all the prophets, and we must obey ALLAH. HE is the only god. there is no one else besides him. he doesnt need a child nor a wife he is the best. all the prophets sent by him starting from adam and ending at muhammad sall allah alihi wa salam have all given ne message to the people and thts to obey ALLAH and please him and to worship him, and no one else because he is the one deserving. okay so whats wrong with that i think its such a good religon. do u hate them because some muslim are terrosirt well no, islam didnt teach them to kill innocent people it just teaches to defend islam and fellow muslims and non muslims too when they are not stronand they are in need odf help,what s wrong with that ????????

because it's really hard to believe that someone who doesn't even know you would even care of wanting to save you. or do they just do that because they think it's their "responsibility" to save your soul, and if they don't do that they will be held responsible for eternal damnation? or can anyone think of something else? because i certainly don't believe that there's such a thing as free ride.

it really makes me wonder...


note: i said SOME, NOT all, so that no one can say that i'm generalizing.

I'm especially asking this to people who have become religious and started to experience miraclous things they never had before. But all ideas and answers are welcome. I am really curious about this, because i'm not really religious but believe in God.

Why is it that people who don't beleive in a God take so much pride in doing so?
Is it because they don't like being pushed around?
They're too scared to be called scared?

Basicly, don't you wish you had something to define you? Something more noble to stand for?
Life sucks without something to beleive in, I mean, lets freaking face it people.

I see so much debate on this site between Christians about who believes what and who is wrong and who is right. I am not interested in what other Christians believe. I want to believe what I believe, and I don't want anyone bothering me about it. In turn, I think other Christians can believe what they want, and I don't care if they agree with me or not, and I don't care to discuss it either. Am I the only one?
