People are so certain of their beliefs (religious and non-religious), but when you objectively look at humans you find this enormous breadth of viewpoints. Many times even an individual person will have a different belief in the evening compared to that morning (not to mention over a month, a year, a lifetime).

Not to get all teary eyed, but shouldn't this obvious fact give us all a little more patience and tolerance toward one another? Throw in the 'truths' found in both metaphor and logic and how can we not look at other peoples beliefs without a little bit of, "yeah, I can kinda see that would be good.."?

What I mean is you have black people, white people, chinese/asian, hispanic and so many other races of people. Now with the first people being Adam and Eve were they both the same race or different, whether they were or weren't how did we have so many different races of people like we have today? Also, another question within the question. In the beginning it was Adam and Eve, Cain and Abel(Sons of Adam and Eve), How did the world reproduce off just Eve? She was the only female. Where they having sex with their mother or were Cain and Abel, homosexuals? Also, when the Virgin Mary had Jesus in her womb, how did he get there if she didn't have sex? How did he get there? I'm not trying to be funny at all. I believe in God, and I'm a Methodist born and raised as one. However, I'm just curious, and this is something I need to know. I'm asking and not afraid to ask either.

Have you sacrificed your "favorite" habit for a week without using it, doing it, eating it, etc?

How was your experience after sacrificing them?

Do you realize something after you don't do your habit?

Any reflection would do.

.......enters into some peoples' body and answers peoples' queries suggests solutions for their problems?

In some places, they have a ritual of local residents gathering in one place (say a temple) and calling their village God or beloved God to enter into a man or a woman (selected through some special rituals) and ask their questions. How far is it believable? Can it really happen. Do really God come and enter a body whenever he is called?

The God Delusion.
It spells out the reasons and mistakes of religion in a very elegant way.

Why do people of faith believe its o.k. to put down non-believers..and why do we put up with it?
Isn't it just another cast or clich system at work? Like geeks and Jocks?

Does that make it the Narrow Path?

Or am I totally wrong on this assumption?

Yes you heard me right "Very, Very"soon.I want to tell you if you do not know this the Madrid peace conference us up and running. They are talking about reinvigorating the stalled peace process that was born in 1993. That conferance is now underway with participants from Israel, Syria, Egypt, Lebanon, Jordon, the US, Palastine, Russia, Saudia Arabia, the EU is hosting the event. On the 9th of this month Solana(Javia) visited with Henry Kissinger whose name has been assosiated with more world order plots and assosiations than anyone. The goal if all the primary players concerned in the matters addressed here are now world order players- even global elitists. I would not be suprised at all if a "Spirit" of peacemaking comes out of the event because of all the New world orders elements involved behind the scenes. Christians do not get back to me if you are not looking forward to Christs return. Genuine replies only .

I have been much pleased with those faithful who have praised my name and followed in the wake of my love and kindness. But the time has come to extend the hand of salvation to those who still do not eat their pasta in rememberance of me. To those I say, my love is great and so is my mercy; repent, and thou shalt be welcomed unto me.
Peace be with you as this is my last visit for a time. I go to my homeland of Kansas to visit and otherwise hob-nob with my fellow Gods about your future life with me in my kingdom. RAmen, my dear, dear friends.

you will go to hell? you keep answering me with this statement "if you don’t follow his law, then you are not going to heaven."

and you know what i say, no body is going to heaven because no body follow his laws. Example: exodus 35:2 "Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day there shall be to you an holy day, a sabbath of rest to the LORD: whosoever doeth work therein shall be put to death." How many are breaking this law I will say more than half of the population on earth break this law.

If you don’t follow this law you are not going to heaven because you are not fulfilling his 3 th commandment right ?... but i know you are going to come up with an excuse such as this and that, because of this or because of that.

Why? because you what a peace of heaven no matter what. Even if that means to go against god…

Hypocrisy = perdition

the law is the law and you cannot throw away some of the rules just because you don’t like them. right? God is infallible.

I was just wondering if other people still believed that? My husband and I do, and have lost alot of friends because of it. I think that alot of times, when there is a relationship between the sexes that there is some kinda of intamcy, and in a since then it is an emotion affair. Just wondering if there are others out there that believe the same?

And you were there and they asked you to explain to them where mankind came from, like a quick history, I imagine you would tell them that god put mankind here about 6,000 years ago.
Now seriously, if they just burst out laughing, would it make you doubt your ideas a little bit? What if they told you that they have been watching this planet for 50,000 years because they saw tool-makers like us, would you think it was a test sent by god to shake your faith? That they were crazy? Or that maybe you need to rethink things?

I know it's a total hypothetical, but please think about it.

I've answered questions about "what if god showed up" and I'm a total atheist. So please return the courtesy.
