Okay, so I would like to do a thesis involving atheism, but that's as far as I've gotten. What would be an interesting topic to study?

And to my Christian brethren: I would love to hear from you, too.

Hi, I am girl from Umbria, Italy.

I was raised Roman Catholic, but I am disappointed by so many of clergy problems. I am scared that all they want is money. I enjoy roman catholic holidays, but I don't really think they are holy. I don't want to disappoint my parents too much though. I love them much!


What are your advices for me? Many thanks.

This is not an attack. I, myself, am an atheist and often use sarcasm. Why do you think these factors may be linked?

if not, what are you doing, guys, in this 'Religion and Spirituality' section of this Yahoo Answers? You're not interested to Christianity or any subjects about 'spirituality' right? or unless you change your minds now..

is there 'Atheism and Agnosticism' section in this Yahoo Answers?

Anyways, you're always welcome here to participate.

The government?

A religion that the woman in question may or may not belong to?

People the woman has never met?

The man who knocked her up?

Or... the woman herself?

What do you think?

because the bible didn´t say that they are in hell, (Gen 2:15 and 3:17) and of course they are not in heaven, because Jesus was the first to go to heaven (John 3:13) unless Jesus lie they cannot be in heaven, because Jesus wouldn´t be the first. So what happens with them and when does god creates the hell.

This is the first time I've seen anything good between Israelis and Palestinians. May Allah bless that soldier for playing with them instead of shooting at them.

Atheists remain the most distrusted minority in the US. How can we raise our approval ratings and perhaps gain more "out" atheists in public office?

You know the people, they claim they speak in a language only understood by the devine. When the Apostles spoke in tongues, it was so that all people could understand them regardless of the language they spoke. Apparently today however speaking in tongues means you can't understand the person.

Is my babbling baby speaking in tongues????

How do you find peace in a place that depresses & angers a person so much?

Every time I begin to read my Bible, so I can better myself & understand life I end up being depressed, angered, and feeling like I am an abomination & pretty much worthless.

What I don’t understand is how I am suppose to believe & have faith in a God that does nothing but makes me feel like I am an abomination to him no matter how much I completely give my life to him I am dammed if I do and dammed if I don’t.

Can some one help me understand why this is happening to me ?

The second coming will be as in the days of Noah. In the days of Noah, the world was so corrupt that only eight were found worthy of even preserving. The flood came and took them all (evil ones) away because they were so corrupt they wouldn't listen to Noah's warnings to them. They went along doing as they pleased and were taken by surprise by the wrath of G-d poured upon them.

Likewise it will be when Yeshua returns. Two will be in a field; one taken, one left. Two will be grinding; one taken, one left. Readers, this is not a rapture being discussed here -- this is the dreadful day of the L-rd. Let me show you this same story in Luke:


"I say to you, in that night there will be two men sleeping in one bed, and one will be taken away and the other let go. Two women will be crushing grain together; one will be taken away and the other let go. Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. And they, answering him, said, 'Where, Lord?' And he said to them, 'Where the body is, there the vultures come together'."
These people are taken to judgement -- to their deaths -- to be devoured by birds -- they are NOT being raptured. The disciples recognized this prophecy about the birds coming together, it's in Ezekiel 39:17-18:


"And you, son of man, this is what the Lord has said: Say to the birds of every sort and to all the beasts of the field, Get together and come; come together on every side to the offering which I am putting to death for you, a great offering on the mountains of Israel, so that you may have flesh for your food and blood for your drink.The flesh of the men of war will be your food, and your drink the blood of the princes of the earth, of sheep and lambs, of he-goats, of oxen, all of them fat beasts of Bashan."
It's repeated in Revelation 19:17-18 too:


"And I saw an angel taking his place in the sun; and he was crying with a loud voice, saying to all the birds in flight in the heavens, Come together to the great feast of God; So that you may take for your food the flesh of kings, and of captains, and of strong men, and of horses and of those who are seated on them, and the flesh of all men, free and unfree, small and great."
So the disciples understood the ones taken were taken to judgement -- it's not a dispensationalist pre-trib rapture being promised in the Olivet discourse, but a carnage.

wandering around? praising and worshiping God? if they can do that already up there why there's a need to 'reunite' their souls to their bodies when Jesus comes again?
