Religion & Spirituality - 24 January 2007

Catholics go to confession, tell their sins and all is forgiven and all they have to do is say a few prayers. However after you die if you have committed some sin, God is no longer content with just 3 hail marys, he is going to make you burn in hell for all eternity. It seems like one bizzare legal system they have got going there, on earth say 3 prayers and you are done, but once god gets his hands on you, he is going to torture you in the most cruel sadistic painful way imaginable and not content with just the time it takes to say 3 hail marys, not for 30 years like our prisoners but for millions upon millions of years, for all eternity and never forgive you, it will never be enough. How can anyone with even one brain cell believe such tosh let alone worship and praise such an unforgiving cruel and sadistic being? And they have the hide to complain about Saddam?

Young Earth creationists (Christians) who maintain that the total age of the universe is only 6,000–12,000 years. If this age is correct, it should not be possible to see light coming from stars and galaxies that are millions or even billions of light-years distant!

They say it never rained before the flood but I was just wondering if lightning existed before the flood.

I know the two are for the most part unrelated but since I don't have the Holy Spirit I don't know the answer to this question.

I don't understand the circumstances under which someone who has died would not say the following: "OH, I am such an idiot! Everything the Mormon missionaries said was true!" And then the person would accept the "Gospel" and a temple baptism by proxy and anything else he or she can do to increase their exaltation. Can somebody draw me a picture?

By the way, this is a serious question, so I'd like serious responses. And the more documentation the better. It doesn't do either of us any good otherwise.

I believe:

God is like an Egg.
An Egg has a shell that captures it's contents (i.e. like God the Father figure).
An egg has a white that surrounds a middle part (i.e The Son figure in the flesh).
An egg has a yolk - the center of it's being (i.e. The Holy Spirit figure in spiritual form).

However, you can not say that the shell alone is the whole egg (That God is separate from the manifestations He sends Himself to mankind as).
You cannot say the white alone is the whole egg (For Jesus Christ was merely a part of Himself - God - that He sent forth to man on earth to bring them Salvation).
And you cannot say the yolk is the entire egg (The Holy Spirit - A part of God's Spirit that sent to earth to be the spiritual Comforter for mankind).

You must say all the parts of the egg together are the whole egg.
You also must say all the parts (i.e manifestations) of God are all of God combined. Thus One God who was and still remains also Jesus and the Holy Spirit.

If possible, I'd like to hear from someone whose parents were not religious; someone who used an objective (as much as possible) point of view and ultimately decided that religion was for them. If so, which religion did you chose and why?

I'm trying to avoid saying "you" in the question since then I would get violated for asking a "personal" question and/or chatting on Yahoo! Answers. So I'm curious, have ever read anything in this category that has changed the way you think?
