Religion & Spirituality - 26 February 2007

It's always: because God loves us all or we are his children or because Jesus died for our sins, or God is great, etc.

It's great that you found something that fills your day to day life with joy but damn, can't you talk about something else?

As an agnostic, getting responses to my questions like, "it's because God is so perfect" just doesn't ring with me and I know I am not alone.

Before you get out your crosses I want to clarify that I have no problem with your religion, really.

I know that Sunnis outnumber Shiite, and that most Arabs are Sunnis, while Persians (Iranians) are Shiite.

If so be very specific. I want proven facts. Don't just state evolution or list some website. Don't state one or two Bible verses because that could mean you just misinterpreted it. Be very very specific, I want details. REAL PROOF. PROOF THAT SCIENTISTS HAVE ACTUALLY PROVEN! I will look over stupid answers. God bless you all. Thanks again.

I'm tired of all the athiest saying that God has not told them "this is the true religion." Athiests act like it's a "private" religion that only we were informed about. Who else is tired of this?

Since some churches preach baptism of babies, do they believe it is accepted by God if a church baptises children or adults? Does the method of baptism, sprinkle, pour, or immerse, matter? Or, is baptism important in your church? Is communion important? How often does the assembly partake of communion?

First of all I do not give speaches on how they are mean to me, ect. The main vurtue that I go by is "every religion is correct." a girl even said that I am a sick person for not beleiving in god. Also, I never had any jews, or muslums complain! Wouldn't saying every religion is correct (including christianity) a compliment?

I think that each new dynasty predated itself as older than the previous dynasty (because Chinese are interested in ancestry and tradition) so they would be considered legitemit by the people.

Is that correct, and do you know a web site I can read up about it?

if every word in the bible is the true "WORD OF GOD" and I am to except this being christian this verse tells me plainly that if I do not belong to one of the original 12 tribes I don't get in to heaven if the world was to end today. I don't want anybody's sugar coated answer to this I want some hard biblical facts tell me where the answer is in the book please because not one preacher pastor or priest has been able to answer this for me without sugar coating it and putting his own spin on it if GOD put it in there then if it is not true or there is someother interpretation it should be in the bible too not in another book and not in some MAN"s interpretation of it.

The possibility of intelligent alien life in the universe besides ours is a great one, this alien life must differ in appearance from humans because the conditions in the forming of their planets must coincide with earth's forming at 100% which might be almost impossible, so if god made us humans in his image, who could have made these other intelligent life forms in this universe?, could it be that god as great as he might be, never keeps up with the vastness of the universe so he does take his time in creating other planets with life capabilities and not make us humans in earth the center of the universe?, what about alternate universes, is there an alternate god per each alternate universe..?
I won't accept the easy-way-out excuse that time and space does not apply to god, because time does exist, it's a measurement in the displacement of matter (which also exists), as atoms are always moving and never stay still.

Alan Turing, the father of modern computers, was gay. If it were not for him, and the ideas and the inspirations he had (some of which are inarguably intertwined and inspired by day-to-day life of talking to lovers, friends, etc.) we would not have computers, or if we did they would be easily 20 years behind the times. Therefore, how can someone who holds the stance that gays are evil justify the use of a computer?

...a lot of them spell out every word in its full. Like they don't shorten their words like haven't or isn't, they say have not, or is not . Why is that?
