Religion & Spirituality - 12 February 2007

I've been feeling like s&#* (No I'm not crazy)..in fact I've got everything going for me, I'm 26, good job, just got my first condo, but I'm soooooooo miserable. I've tried getting close to God and it never seems to work. More than anything in this world, I want that closeness with God & I feel like it's trying to find a needle in the haystack "it's never gonna happen".. Even though I'm successful, I'm so alone and miserable.. I always thought that success brought happiness, but I'm starting to realize that it doesn't. On the outside I seem to have it all going for me, but I don't think people really know how miserable and alone I am.. I'm too young to be feeling this way.. Sometimes I really wish that I could go to sleep & not wake up. Should I just stop attempting to get close to God or continue trying?

I believe unicorns do not exist. I think that anyone who believes in unicorns is stupid. It bothers me when you even say that word. I think we should take that word out of the dictionary because it's so wrong and misleading.

People who actually believe in it should be shot for being so stupid. When will these people wake up out of their baggage?

Why are some people who don't believe in God offended by the very thing they don't believe in?

country and we just woke up there and some of us said we got there by train because somebody wrote that down. But another group showed that it couldn't possibly be because we crossed an ocean so we must have taken a plane. Who cares, we are there. What can we do from this point.

If at this stage of a "souls" life a human only uses 10-15 % of their brain, when we pass on, do we increase our usage in our next life so on and so on to the point were we eventually become our own "spiritual god" with the potenial to use 100 % of our brain?

How do the gospel writers know about any of this? They where not even there.... The books must of been written 60 years after Jesus was born... They must have a long memory. They where not even at the birth, etc.
Sounds to me like the stories where changed to fit in with older texts, of who the massah should of come from... More realistic than the Christian version.

Who here was a virgin on their wedding night and just how bad was the sex? Common, it's okay to admit it.

PS. I really do admire those who wait, I would just be such a nervous wreck.

I read a question posted recently regarding being gay, and a christian. Many christians stated that you cannot be gay and a christian also, that you'll be convicted and wish to turn away from your sin.

So does this mean that converting to christianity will prevent you from sinning?

People who are considered christians still sin. Whether its lying, envy, greed, or lust ... christians still commit sins every single day. If this theory really held up, wouldn't everyone who converted to christianity stop sinning?

So those of you who claim to be christians, and still sin, does this mean that you aren't truly a christian?

Christians say that homosexuality is a lifestyle of sin. What is the difference between that and the lifestyles of christians who steal, are envious, and have unmarried heterosexual intercourse? All of these things are equated to homosexuality in 1 Cor. 6:9-11.

Please explain.

My mom is divorced. If she remarries would she be an adulteress and potentially go to Hell when she dies if she doesn't repent?

Why bother with the maintenance and upkeep of quadrillions of stars & planets, and all the whiney life forms living on them ,when you could just as easily cast yourself and everything else into oblivion, and call it a day?

Still.. I love believers because they are what they are. Why do you think an atheist doesnt feel the same things you feel. We arent feelers. We are thinkers. That is why.... But still, I respect the feelers. They are a happier lot, though a little bit empty dumpty. Yet, I wish I was a believer and be an empty dumpty, tooo. But I cant be a believer .....Why?

Read Matt. 10:28-29. "Do not fear those who kill the body but are unable to kill the soul; but rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. “Are not two sparrows sold for a cent? And yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father.

Those who have an abortion are "kiling" a body, not a soul...and therefore those individuals should not be feared. The next line states that God is aware of all that is going on and he is ALLOWING it for his own reasons. Think about it.

And just b/c I have to say this....I would never have an abortion myself, that is my own personal choice. However, I don't like the idea of anyone legislating my body...that's all.

Do you agree with this notion? Does it make sense to you? Or is it a case of exaggerated political correctness?
