- what is the MOST IMPORTANT message according to Buddhism I can teach my children (ages 6 and 9)?

- where can I find children stories about Buddhism on the web? Stories with "a positive message" that I can read to my kids?

- How can I help my children find inner-peace and balance?

Thank you...

Are there any descriptions of " Jesus' Father" ? I think his father is an " IT" more than a "whom", but what are your thoughts on The Father of Jesus.

on other people's questions, I notice you say that God won't force himself on anybody--so you have to do it for him? Jesus loves you whether you like it or not, but so did Dahmer and Bundy, and they stayed with you until you died as well, what makes Jesus any better than the common rapist? That's easy, he gets his sheeple to perform the criminal act for him!

I was asking some questions yesterday about relatiivity and it seemed that some folks in R&S don't 'believe' in it. And while much of it is complicated, the basic building blocks of it can be demonstrated by thought experiments (this is actually how Einstein did some of his early work).

Here's one example I posted last night (I've altered it just a little bit):

Imagine you are sitting in a train that is leaving town. Your seat is facing backward and you are looking back at the clock in the town square. Just as the clock hits 1:00:00, the train instantly accelerates to the speed of light. You continue watching the clock. What do you think happens?

It's a simple example, but it provides a glimpse as to why time is relative. Even though the clock continues to move, you only see it at 1:00:00:

If you slowed down just a fraction, the clock would move, but the rate of movement that you saw would be much slower than the rate of movement of somebody still and observing the clock.

I wanted to get a deck of tarot cards and wanted to know if there is a difference in the different decks? If so, which is better. Where is the best place to get a tarot deck, and a book explaining what each card means?

They're not God, and if God has made his presence known and I rejected him, why would Christians knock on my door and just remind me I'm going to Hell?

I always hear that God works in mysterious ways. Could my doubts be the will of God?

The process of thinking also involves burning of chemicals in the brain. So what is the nature of a soul? Does it exist in vaccum? Can soul see a light? Does it have consiousness?

But you didn't believe in me and YOU'RE NOT SORRY! RRRAAA! SO BURN FOREVER!!! MUAHAHHA MUAHAHAHAMUMUAHAHA!

....and this is what he does about 9 times out of 10 for all people souls he ever created? Then he just watches over all of them as they burn for 'eternity'?

...Oh, and then a serial killer steps up and says: "oh, I killed about 100 people and tortured and raped them, but saw the light and I believed and I'm really sorry",
and God says::"mmm ok, I forgive you, enter heaven here."

What a perfect religion for the most evil and wicked.

Let's say that jesus was god incarnate, as that seems to be the common Idea that is the basis of this statement.

God is described as omnipresent, meaning he's present in every cubic centimeter of the universe. So isn't it a little silly to invite him into your heart, as he's already there? (like it or not).

That's like inviting somebody into the room in which they are sitting.

Did I misinterpret this phrase?
