The world is a creation of confused men & woman. The Earth is an emanation of God/Godess. Nothing needs to be "fixed" only let go of the false and the truth stands of it's self, naked.

I am a big woman, and I have one hijab and one dress. I work but all of my money goes on bills. I would love to dress the proper way, but I can't afford too. I don't have husband, but inshala I will someday. Do anyone know where I might find some nice Muslim clothes for women that I might be able to afford.

If it was fresh water how did the salt water fish survive if salt or brackish waters how did the fresh water fish survive? How did the bottom dwelling Crustations and Shell Fish survive the sudden increase in water pressure or the Corals survive the sudden depth changes and increased sedimentation?? The only answer was that Noah must have had huge oxygenated aquariums on board the Ark for every aquatic creature or the whole story is bunkem.
Which is more likely?

Is the Malleus Malificarum still valid?

If it is, should witches today be tortured, questioned and killed as prescribed in this document?

We had the Judas problem,Da Vinci code and most recently a Documentary about the lost tombs.
I saw an interview with Kirk Cameran and he made a valid point.Why don't we see controversy over Muhammed,Allah,Buddah etc.Why is Jesus the one who is always emphasized?
I hope to hear some nice input.

I mean it's kind of like teasing a retard, isn't it? They can't help that they were born with a genetic tendency to believe in nonsense stories.

Can you give me some tips about how I can live it up and do as much sinning as possible, because I know in my old age I'll turn into a death fearing church goer and I'll let the bible thumpers take me into brainwashing camp.

I have certain limits though OK, no murder or anything....
well, OK, maybe murder once or twice, but only if that person REALLY deserves it.

Because if, for example, you had been stolen as a kid and raised in Bandar Abbas or New Delhi instead of a Christian place, do you really think you'd find Christianity? Or someone whose parents read the Koran being taken to live in Nebraska as a kid staying with Allah?

I say that people who have such strong religious conviction that everyone else is "misguided" or "wrong" are just emotionally unstable.

Personal tragedies in 2004 helped me realize that there are different interpretations of God/Allah/Buddah/etc. all over the world. No one is right. We kill even though all writings in most religion says not to.

This is my first time in this category. Your answers could change my life. Please help me decide.

I apologize if this seems to include all pagans - but I wanted to spread as wide a net as possible to find out something.

In the woods behind my house, on the highest point of land in a field at the edge of the forest is a large circle made of rock - about 30 feet across.

In the center of the circle is a single large rock. All other stones have been removed from the circle.

The rocks in the circle are all one level high, except the rock at the north edge is two rocks high.

There are no signs of fire.

Any ideas what this is, and if a pagan site, which group it might belong to?

Thanks

That sent me 18 hate emails full of afterlife threats of eternal damnation, and threats to my life and my family's life. You sound more like the mob than god fearing, human loving people. Is this what your god wants you to do? Is he proud of you?

Why do people go to church on sunday? the Bible says to go on the "seventh" day and ofcourse, that is saturday...the fourth commandment states" Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.

9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:

10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:

11 For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it."

THEN WHY DISOBEY THIS COMMANDMENT AND GO ON SUNDAY WHEN GOD TOLD US THAT SATURDAY IS THE HOLDY DAY OF REST.think about it...

A two-year-old boy was once staring at a heater, fascinated by its bright orange glow. His father saw him and warned, "Don’t touch that heater, son. It may look pretty, but it’s hot." The little boy believed him, and moved away from the heater. Some time later, after his father had left the room, the boy thought, "I wonder if it really is hot." He then reached out to touch it and see for himself. The second his flesh burned, he stopped believing it was hot; he now knew it was hot! He had moved out of the realm of belief into the realm of experience.

Christians believed in God’s existence before their conversion. However, when they obeyed the Word of God, turned from their sins, and embraced Jesus Christ, they stopped merely believing. The moment they reached out and touched the heater bar of God’s mercy, they moved out of belief into the realm of experience. This experience is so radical, Jesus referred to it as being "born again." The Bible says that those who don’t know God are spiritually dead (Ephesians 2:1; 4:18). We are born with physical life, but not spiritual life. Picture unbelievers as corpses walking around who, by repenting and placing their faith in Christ, receive His very life. There is a radical difference between a corpse and a living, breathing human, just as there is when sinners pass from spiritual death to life. The apostle Paul said if you are "in Christ," you are a brand new creature (2 Corinthians 5:17).

Those who now have God’s Spirit living in them will love what He loves and desire to do His will; they will have a hunger for His Word, a love for other believers, and a burden for the lost. The Holy Spirit also confirms in their spirit that they are now children of God (Romans 8:16). Those who believe on the name of the Son of God can know that they have eternal life (1 John 5:12,13).

Paul wrote to the church at Corinth, "My speech and my preaching were not with enticing words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: that your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God" (1 Corinthians 2:4,5). What Paul was saying was, "I deliberately didn’t talk you into your faith, but I let God’s power transform you." He didn’t reach them through an intellectual assent, but through the realm of personal experience.

Suppose two people—a heater manufacturer and a skin specialist—walked into the room just after that child had burned his hand on the heater. Both assured the boy that he couldn’t possibly have been burned. But all the experts, theories, and arguments in the world will not dissuade that boy, because of his experience. Those who have been transformed by God’s power need never fear scientific or other arguments, because the man with an experience is not at the mercy of a man with an argument. "For our gospel came not to you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Spirit, and in much assurance . . ." (1 Thessalonians 1:5).

The stories of Noahs Ark and the seven day creation were taken by many as solid, undisputed fact. Since then, our level of knowledge has increased exponentially and has as a result at the very least cast severe doubt on the validity of those stories if not proved them complete and utterly nonsense. So biblical literalness is declining; will it keep declining to be nothing at all? Will Christians reinvent their religion to keep it alive?

These Christians go on about God's love and all that crap but forget the scriptures that talk about how jealous he is and how he demands that his servents destory and kill women children and innocent people. They never want to mention that stuff.

Why do they expect us to look at them as if they have brains and listen to them seriously? How could they be so contradictory and not admit to it?

Take this post for example: You don't have to read it:

I need to talk to him. I mean so many people believe in him, so he must exist. So to the people that believe in God, tell me where I can find him and don't tell me the Bible.

Tell me where is God actually located, and I will look for him

Do you want me to stay alive?
Give me some reasons to stay alive.
