I was just wondering because i see that people like exorcists must have a power from god or else the demon possesing that person wouldn't leave them. Or Very popular pastors like Benny Hinn who has healed people. I was just wondering if any of you have aqquired
something special from god, and would like to share it. Please real answers. Be honest.
Thanks

Why?

2007-01-21 18:18:06 · 25 answers · asked by Anonymous

It just pains me sometimes the power that religion has. I myself am catholic, but do not follow the word and question my religion. Does that make me a bad person? I love and respect everyone. Yet I can't even have a cup of coffee with an all-Christian family.

This non-acceptance in today's religious society is what pains me. Follow your god, follow your beliefs, and you will have my utmost respect, but can you respect my beliefs as well? Don't distance yourself from me, call me evil, and tell me angrily that I will go to hell. If that is my choice then it is mine and mine alone. Please respect, not hate. Is that so much to ask for? Is peace too much to ask for? It will never happen I know, but I'm just simply wondering.

This is the only reason why I do not like religion sometimes.

I have mixed feelings. I really hope the Apocalypse will not for a very very long time. I have mixed feelings of worry and panic with faith that people will improve our society and environment to make our world last a bit longer, before it gets worse again and Jesus comes. The way things look now it seems as though he'd becoming in 2050, but that seems too obvious. We've had bad eras before where people were so convinced it was the end and things still improved...it's cyclical. Yes some things are really bad today such as affluenza, lack of nuclear families, and sexual immorality but some things have also actually improved and are overlooked. Our society accepts immoral things today that weren't in the past, but there are immoral things that were accepted in the past that aren't today (slavery, domestic abuse, racism, etc.). Also, we are becoming more educated about what we can do to save our planet and in some places things are environmentally improving. So there is a tradeoff and in away our society is equally as moral overall, just about different things.

However…to be modest (which kind of contradicts everything I said) no human should really know when it will happen. Jesus made that very clear that we shouldn’t be arrogant enough think we have an idea of when it will happen. It could happen tomorrow, or it could happen a million years from now. But hopefully before the sun explodes on us lol. So in conclusion, I believe we should find a healthy balance by being positive and faithful without getting arrogantly overconfident and complacent. Hopefully the beauty of our planet will be found in His everlasting kingdom anyway so I shouldn’t have to worry about parting with our world. The reason why I don’t want it to happen when I’m alive is because I want a lifetime to spiritually improve myself so I can be worthy to go to heaven. I’m 20 and have a lot of growing up to do. I think I am a relatively good Christian for my age and all, but I still don’t think I am worthy yet.

An interesting article in the newspaper. What do you think of its conclusions?

My last two questions began with "why" and re-reading them just makes me think o_O. "How to start off offending people right away"
"The @ss-hole's Guide to Offending everybody everywhere all at once"

I could write books like that. How many people think that asking a "Why" question implies judgment?

When in fact they have more blood on their hands than Osama Bin ladin and Al-Qaeeda?

They are no different than any terrorist organization just that they have legalized their actions with the UN. Moreover, Hitler(who was a Christian) and the Bombing of Hiroshima is a good example of terrorism not to mention the enslavement of Blacks all around the world when it was popular to rape and cut off the feet of runaways.

Is your God called Buddha? I have heard from several people that your religion is the most non judgemental & very peaceful religion there is. I am not very knowledgable in religion but I know the Jewish religion believes there was a man named Jesus Christ but he is not their saviour & I know as a Christian we do, but what is your position on that & what holiday do you celebrate? Thanks

Mecca is the holiest city in Islam and no non-Muslims are allowed to enter because the Koran calls them "nijs" or "impure".

Rome is the holiest city of the Roman Catholic Church and is home to tens of thousands of Muslims and the center of a great mosque. http://uk.encarta.msn.com/media_1041500181_761556259_-1_1/Mosque_in_Rome.html

Doesn't this show a great difference between Muslim tolerance and Western tolerance? Is this yet another Muslim double standard?

I need help so badly, and I keep praying and praying to God for some kind of guidance. It is really hard to keep my faith when I feel that I am being ignored.

Im very interested in Paganism and learning more, but the more visible groups I have found have been extreme for me. How do I find out more? Most Pagans that I am aware of dont attend any events and rather practice alone. I'm ok with that but need some good resources to learn more about it.
