Religion & Spirituality - 16 February 2007

I went to a Baptist church in Cardiff (1989-1995) and at the time they had well attended evening services. Also, other traditional churches (CofE, Catholic, Methodist, Baptist) have done away with it - even those who have had poor evening attandances for years

Will Evangelicals finally stop pretending to Love the sinner and hate the sin and admit they just plain hate. The message boards on many Evangelical Christian sites are applauding what he said and are themselves being quite 'honest' about how they really feel. I personally thank Mr. Hardaway for finally revealing the truth, so again I ask, will Evangelicals finally drop the pretense and just admit your lies?

You can't please everyone. Some people are strong in their beliefs and some are not.

I hope your answer wont be the Holy spirit because the holy spirit was mentioned in the bible before Jesus(as) departed from this world, so it is ovious that is definately not the answer because the truthful spirit only suppose to come after Jesus (as) departed from this world.

Read the link above & tell me......... who is the truthful spirit?

The possible superstitions which may be developed from a theistic mindset are wide-ranging and well-explored; I thought that it might be an interesting exercise to find some superstitions specific to an atheistic mindset. Let me give examples:
1) There is no God. Now, atheists will try to dodge this by saying, "I don't believe there is no God, I just have no belief in God." However, not only will quick conversation reveal that they have a pronounced belief that there is no God, but cursory examination will reveal that the two statements are functionally identical.
2) Science will cure all of society's ills. This is the fallacy of scientism.
3) Predictive ability is the only valid criterion for a method of investigation. This is the excuse for pitting science as an adversary to religion, and finding religion therefore "valueless."

Superstitions are unjustified beliefs, not beliefs that offend you. Discuss or add to the list. No flames, please.

please explain the reality of children peeling tape off of wrapped gifts that were placed in a parents closet or under the bed? Do you really think children don't get it? Please explain to me why some feel that everything must be made to all bad and struggle to see the whole picture?

My children knew and know why we celebrate Christmas and what the festivities include which is Jesus and the spirit of giving which is where St. Nicholas originated from...anyone think St. Nick had the spirit within and did not hesitate to make it known?

Why do I get answers on my prayers? Is it because I am actually LISTENING to what He has to say instead of always complaining about everything? I believe that anyone can hear the Lord's answers, but most people just refuse to wait...

Dogmatic Idealism aside,how can you excuse Catholics who would rather people died than had a bit of sex.
New York's top Catholic leaders on Thursday sharply criticized Mayor Michael Bloomberg's administration for distributing free condoms, accusing them of promoting promiscuity and degrading society.

Don't you think the TRUTH is what people need to know so we won't suffer so much? Will someone tell us the real TRUTH? Like the REAL REALITY of the existence of heaven or where the dead are now?

When one doesn't buy into the evolution theory, are they deemed "un-Believers", too?

Granted. They literally don't believe.

So, then, is deeming them "un-Believers" befitting after all?

I don't really know much about the bible, I'll admit. But everyone knows about the Cane and Able story.

But my question is...why did God refuse Cane's gift but take Ables? I thought God was suppose to love everybody? I just can't think about that story without feeling a tad bad for Cane.

So....why did God hate cane? I thought God loved all...
