Religion & Spirituality - 9 March 2007

I'm currently writing a book that involves the kind of magic you would find in "Harry Potter" or "Artemis Fowl," of which I am a big fan. However, I realize that Christianity (my religion)condemns the use of magic. Can I still write about it and remain religious?

It's by Lee Strobel, a wonderful author and might I add a terrific person.

Do you realize that Easter is coming up? Show some respect for the religion that made this country great.

I think this book will flip the switch and get you to start understanding what you non Christians are missing in your life.

But, it's your logic gap. Not mine. But I'm just so worried about all of the lost souls our there that haven't found the answer yet like me and my family.

If the book is a little above you, which I fear will be the case often, there is also a "Case for Christ" childrens book. It's more picture oriented, but you'll get the point.

The Bible tells us not to call any person Reverand so why defy God here?

GOD's universal Commandments for the Human Race are the 10 Commandments, but GOD's laws given to Jews and Gentiles have been dsputed since Jesus Christ came to earth.

Since GOD said *Thou shall not commit Adultery* which encompasses many deplorable acts in GOD's eyes (Including Homosexual Acts) why is it that homosexuals will try to intertwine a Commandment from GOD verses a law to justify homosexual behaviour?

. 28 YOU heard that I said to YOU, I am going away and I am coming [back] to YOU. If YOU loved me, YOU would rejoice that I am going my way to the Father, because the Father is greater than I am.

Clearly sounds like two distinct and seperate sprirt creatures here, not only that but also that they they most definately are not equal.

Why would nudity be so upsetting that we make it illegal? Remember, most of the OTHER animals are nude ALL THE TIME...

The Apostle Paul had the most influence on early Christian thinking, yet he never met Jesus. Paul also does not refer to Jesus' teaching very often in his own writings.

The argument could be made that Catholics, Orthodox, and Protestants have been following "Pauline Christianity", and not "Jesus Christianity" for almost 2000 years. Then everyone would go to hell. Wouldn't that suck?

If the Old Testament was to be considered obsolete, how come Jesus did not say so? In fact, he often quoted scripture from the Old Testament? He helped his disciples better understand Old Testament prophesy. In light of this, do you think Christians should discard OT and just focus on the New Testament?

One day, President Bush visited an elementary school. All the kids were so excited to get to meet the President. He began to talk to them and asked them to define the word ''tragedy.''
"Well," one girl replied, "If my mommy ran over my dog, Rover, that would be a tragedy!"

The President smiled at the little girl and said, "No, sweetie. That would be an accident! Can anyone give it a try?"

A little boy sitting across the room raised his hand and said, "I know! I know! If our bus driver ran off of a cliff and killed everyone!"

The President shook his head and said, "No son. That would be a great loss! Doesn't anyone know of a good example of a tragedy?"

A small girl raised her hand and said, "Well, Mr. President, if you and Laura were in Air Force One and it was hit by a missile and blown to smithereens, most people would think that that was a tragedy!"

"Very good," he said. "And what was your reason for that answer?"

Yesterday morning I took my little sister to school a little late and she missed breakfast, I have trouble waking up and my dad had to wait for me this is why we were late. Later when we dropped her off I thought she would have had breakfast…she did not. Right after this we had breakfast from a store nearby, then I went to school. Am I neglecting my wiccan duties by forgetting? My dad keeps telling me that its my fault she didn’t have breakfast and I am selfish…do you think I am?

Does your religion tell you (or suggest) how to feel about the military? Do you see us as just killers and ruthless murderers? Do you only see the politics of war and not the individuals serving?

....remember, there is a large % of military members who join only for the education and benifits and travel. (I am not in that category, but there are a lot of people who join for selfish reasons)

What's your opinion of the military? (not the politics of it please)

I will be having major surgery on March 22nd. I need all the prayers I can get. Thank you, and God bless you.

Everything is fine but you just feel something isn't quite right? Well, never ignore that feeling. It might be your conscience telling you your not right with God in some part of your life. Remember the bible says, "If he shrinks back then my soul has no delight in him." I felt that way because I wasn't praying praying enough. Now I'm praying more again and that feeling is gone and replaced with joy. Just wanted to remind you all to do your daily reality check. God bless!

If you do you have to learn to live with it. Posting messages over at the LBGT page making hateful messages is not the way god wants christians to act. You have to learn to accept everyone for whom they are. If you can't then maybe you should just disconnect the internet and continue living your hillbilly life. Maybe marry your sister or something.
